Water rises to a height of `16.3cm` in a capillary of height `18cm` above the water level. If the tube is cut at a height of `12cm`

A

Water will eject out as fountain from capillary tube.

B

Water will remain at 12 cm is in capillary tube

C

Height of water in capillary tube will be 10.3 cm

D

Level of water will fall down from capillary tube

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
As if length of capillary tube is insufficient then water will rise in capillary tube upto its upper end and radius of meniscus will adjust automatically.
