If water rises in a capillary tube up to $3 \, cm$,what is the diameter of the capillary tube? (Surface tension of water $T = 7.2 \times 10^{-2} \, N/m$,density $\rho = 10^3 \, kg/m^3$,$g = 10 \, m/s^2$)

  • A
    $9.6 \times 10^{-4} \, m$
  • B
    $9.6 \times 10^{-3} \, m$
  • C
    $9.6 \times 10^{-2} \, m$
  • D
    $9.6 \times 10^{-1} \, m$
