Water rises to a height of $10 \ cm$ in a certain capillary tube. Another identical tube when dipped in mercury,the level of mercury is depressed by $3.42 \ cm$. The density of mercury is $13.6 \ g/cc$. The angle of contact for water in contact with glass is $0^o$ and for mercury in contact with glass is $135^o$. The ratio of the surface tension of water to that of $Hg$ is:

$A$ capillary tube is placed at angles of $30^o$ and $60^o$ with the vertical. What is the ratio of the length of the liquid column in the capillary tube?

In an experiment to find the surface tension of mercury with the help of the capillary rise method,the liquid column in the capillary will:

In a capillary tube having area of cross-section $A$,the water rises to a height $h$. If the cross-sectional area is reduced to $\frac{A}{9}$,the rise of water in the capillary tube is

Three liquids have the same surface tension and densities $\varrho_{1}, \varrho_{2}$,and $\varrho_{3}$ $(\varrho_{1} > \varrho_{2} > \varrho_{3})$. In three identical capillaries,the rise of liquid is the same. The corresponding angles of contact $\theta_{1}, \theta_{2}$,and $\theta_{3}$ are related as:
