AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of how high water will rise in a capillary tube with half the cross-sectional area, we can use the principles of capillarity and the relationship between height, radius, and area. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Given Information:** - The height of water in the first capillary tube (H1) is 3.2 cm. - The area of cross-section of the second capillary tube (A2) is half that of the first capillary tube (A1). Thus, A2 = A1 / 2. ...
