  • A
    $L=\frac{4 T}{r \rho g}$
  • B
    $L=\frac{2 T}{r \rho g}$
  • C
    $L=\frac{T}{4 r \rho g}$
  • D
    $L=\frac{T}{2 r \rho g}$

$A$ capillary tube of radius $0.1 \,mm$ is dipped in water. The water rises to a height of $2 \,cm$ in the tube. If the surface tension of water is $0.072 \,N/m$, the contact angle between water and the wall of the tube is:

When one end of a capillary tube is dipped in water,the height of the water column is $h$. The upward force of $108 \ dyne$ due to surface tension is balanced by the force due to the weight of the water column. What is the inner circumference of the capillary (in $cm$)? (Surface tension of water $T = 7.2 \times 10^{-2} \ N/m$)

Three liquids have the same surface tension and 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:

When a capillary is dipped in water,water rises $0.015 \ m$ in it. If the surface tension of water is $75 \times 10^{-3} \ N/m$,the radius of the capillary is ....... $mm$.

$A$ uniform capillary tube of length $l$ and inner radius $r$ with its upper end sealed is submerged vertically into water. The outside pressure is $p_{0}$ and surface tension of water is $\gamma$. When a length $x$ of the capillary is submerged into water, it is found that water levels inside and outside the capillary coincide. The value of $x$ is
