The lower end of a capillary tube is dipped into water and it is observed that the water in the capillary tube rises by $7.5 \ cm$. Find the radius of the capillary tube used,if the surface tension of water is $7.5 \times 10^{-2} \ N \ m^{-1}$. The angle of contact between water and glass is $0^{\circ}$ and the acceleration due to gravity is $10 \ m \ s^{-2}$.

  • A
