The height of a liquid column raised in a capillary tube of a certain radius when dipped in liquid $A$ vertically is $5 \ cm$. If the tube is dipped in a similar manner in another liquid $B$ with surface tension and density double the values of liquid $A$,the height of the liquid column raised in liquid $B$ would be $........ \ m$.

  • A
    $0.20$
  • B
    $0.5$
  • C
    $0.05$
  • D
    $0.10$

The angle of contact between glass and water is $0^\circ$ and it rises in a capillary up to $6 \text{ cm}$ when its surface tension is $70 \text{ dynes/cm}$. Another liquid of surface tension $140 \text{ dynes/cm}$,angle of contact $60^\circ$ and relative density $2$ will rise in the same capillary by ........ $\text{cm}$.

Identify the correct figure which shows the relation between the height of water column in a capillary tube and the capillary radius.

Why is it better to wear cotton clothes in summer?

Three liquids have the same surface tension and have densities $\rho_1, \rho_2$, and $\rho_3$ $(\rho_1 > \rho_2 > \rho_3)$. 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:

Water rises in a capillary tube up to a height $h$. If this capillary tube is tilted by an angle of $45^o$,then the length of the water column in the capillary tube becomes
