  • A
    $2.0$
  • B
    $4.0$
  • C

Radius of a capillary is $2 \times 10^{-3} \,m$. $A$ liquid of weight $6.2 \times 10^{-4} \,N$ may remain in the capillary. Then the surface tension of the liquid will be $:-$

Water rises in a capillary tube to a height of $3\, cm$ when one end is dipped vertically in it. If the surface tension of water is $75 \times 10^{-3}\, N/m$,then the diameter of the capillary tube will be....... $mm$. (Assume $g = 10\, m/s^2$)

Two capillary tubes $A$ and $B$ of the same internal diameter are kept vertically in two different liquids whose densities are in the ratio $4:3$. If the surface tensions of these two liquids are in the ratio $6:5$,then the ratio of rise of liquid in capillary $A$ to that in $B$ is (assume their angles of contact are nearly equal).

The ratio of surface tensions of mercury and water is given to be $7.5$ while the ratio of their densities is $13.6$. Their contact angles with glass are close to $135^o$ and $0^o$,respectively. It is observed that mercury gets depressed by an amount $h$ in a capillary tube of radius $r_1$,while water rises by the same amount $h$ in a capillary tube of radius $r_2$. The ratio $(r_1/r_2)$ is then close to:

The quantity on which the rise of liquid in a capillary tube does not depend is
