Water rises in a capillary tube through ...

Water rises in a capillary tube through a height `l`. If the tube is inclined to the liquid surface at `30^(@)` the liquid will rise in the tube upto it's length equal to

A

h/2

B

h

C

2 h

D

4 h

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
` h = l cos theta ` ,
` l = h/(cos theta) = h/(cos 60^(@)) = h/(1//2) = 2h`
