    $9:1$
  • B
    $1:9$
  • C

Water rises to a height $3$ cm in a capillary tube. If the cross-sectional area of the capillary tube is reduced to $1/3^{rd}$ of its initial area, then water will rise to a height of:

If a capillary experiment is performed in a vacuum,what happens to the liquid level in the capillary tube?

In a $U$-shaped tube,the radius of one limb is $2 \ mm$ and that of the other limb is $4 \ mm$. $A$ liquid of surface tension $0.03 \ Nm^{-1}$,density $1500 \ kgm^{-3}$,and angle of contact zero is taken in the tube. The difference in the heights of the levels of the liquid in the two limbs is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ ms^{-2}$) (in $mm$)

The quantity on which the rise of liquid in a capillary tube does not depend is

Water rises in a capillary tube to a certain height such that the upward force due to surface tension is balanced by $75 \times 10^{-4} \, N$ force due to the weight of the liquid. If the surface tension of water is $6 \times 10^{-2} \, N m^{-1}$,the inner circumference of the capillary must be
