When a capillary tube is immersed in water vertically,water rises to a height $h$ inside the tube. If the radius of another capillary tube is $\frac{1}{3}$ that of the previous,the height to which water will rise in this tube is:

  • A
    $h$
  • B
    $h \sqrt{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{h}{3}$
  • D
    $3h$
