Given below are two statements:
$Statement$ $I$: If a capillary tube is immersed first in cold water and then in hot water,the height of capillary rise will be smaller in hot water.
$Statement$ $II$: If a capillary tube is immersed first in cold water and then in hot water,the height of capillary rise will be smaller in cold water.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate from the options given below:

  • A
    Both $Statement$ $I$ and $Statement$ $II$ are true.
  • B
    Both $Statement$ $I$ and $Statement$ $II$ are false.
  • C
    $Statement$ $I$ is true but $Statement$ $II$ is false.
  • D
    $Statement$ $I$ is false but $Statement$ $II$ is true.

Water rises in a capillary tube to a height such that the upward force of surface tension balances the downward force of $75 \times 10^{-4} \ N$ due to the weight of the water. If the surface tension of water is $12 \times 10^{-2} \ N/m$,the internal circumference of the capillary must be:

Two capillary tubes of length $L$ and $2L$ and of radius $R$ and $2R$ are connected in series. The net rate of flow of fluid through them will be (given rate of flow through a single capillary,$X = \frac{\pi P R^4}{8 \eta L}$)

$A$ capillary tube of radius $0.2\,cm$ is dipped vertically in a beaker containing liquid. If the liquid rises to a height of $5\,cm$ for which the angle of contact is $60^o$,then the surface tension of the liquid is ...... $dynes/cm$ (given density $d = 1\,gm/cm^3$ and acceleration due to gravity $g = 980\,cm/s^2$).

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

Water rises to height $h$ in a capillary tube. If the length of the capillary tube above the surface of water is made less than $h$,then
