Surface tension of two liquids (having same densities), $T_1$ and $T_2$, are measured using the capillary rise method utilizing two tubes with inner radii of $r_1$ and $r_2$ where $r_1 > r_2$. The measured liquid heights in these tubes are $h_1$ and $h_2$ respectively. [Ignore the weight of the liquid above the lowest point of the meniscus]. If $T_1 = T_2$, which of the following relations is satisfied?

If $M$ is the mass of water that rises in a capillary tube of radius $r,$ then the mass of water which will rise in a capillary tube of radius $2r$ is

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).

$A$ $20\, cm$ long capillary tube is dipped in water. The water rises up to $8\, cm$. If the entire arrangement is put in a freely falling elevator,the length of water column in the capillary tube will be ...... $cm$.
