A capillary tube when immersed vertically in a liquid records a rise of 3cm.if the tube is immersed in the liquid at an angle of `60^(@)` with the vertical, then find the length of the liqiud column along the tube.

A

2 cm

B

3 cm

C

6 cm

D

9 cm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

` h = l cos theta " " :. l = h/(cos theta )`
` = 3/(cos 60 ) = 3/(1/2) = 6 cm `
