In a capillary tube experiment,a vertical $20 \,cm$ long capillary tube is dipped in water. The water rises up to a height of $8 \,cm$ due to capillary action. If this experiment is conducted in a freely falling elevator,the length of the water column becomes ....... $cm$.

The angle of contact between glass and water is $0^{\circ}$ and water rises in a glass capillary up to $6 \ cm$ (Surface tension of water is $T$). Another liquid of surface tension $2T$,angle of contact $60^{\circ}$ and relative density $2$ will rise in the same capillary up to (Given: $\cos 0^{\circ}=1, \cos 60^{\circ}=0.5$) (in $cm$)

Water rises in a capillary tube of radius $r$ up to a height $h$. The mass of water in the capillary is $m$. The mass of water that will rise in a capillary of radius $\frac{r}{5}$ will be:

Fill in the blanks:
$(i)$ Smaller the radius of the capillary tube,...... the height of the column. ( more / less )
$(ii)$ If the meniscus is convex,then the liquid .......... in the capillary,and if it is concave,then the liquid .......... in the capillary. ( depressed / rises up )

$A$ glass capillary tube is in the shape of a truncated cone with an apex angle $\alpha$ so that its two ends have cross sections of different radii. When dipped in water vertically,water rises in it to a height $h$,where the radius of its cross section is $b$. If the surface tension of water is $S$,its density is $\rho$,and its contact angle with glass is $\theta$,the value of $h$ will be ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity).
