The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the height of the liquid column in a tube of 1 mm bore when dipped into a liquid with given properties. We will solve this in two parts: (a) when the tube is held vertically and (b) when it is inclined at an angle of 30 degrees to the vertical. ### Given Data: - Diameter of the tube (d) = 1 mm = 0.1 cm - Radius of the tube (r) = d/2 = 0.05 cm - Density of the liquid (ρ) = 0.8 g/cm³ - Surface tension (T) = 30 dyne/cm - Angle of contact (θ) = 0 degrees ### Part (a): Tube held vertically 1. **Formula for height of liquid column (H)**: The height to which the liquid will rise in the tube can be calculated using the formula: \[ H = \frac{2T \cos \theta}{\rho g r} \] 2. **Substituting values**: - \( T = 30 \) dyne/cm - \( \cos(0) = 1 \) - \( \rho = 0.8 \) g/cm³ - \( g = 980 \) cm/s² (acceleration due to gravity) - \( r = 0.05 \) cm Plugging in the values: \[ H = \frac{2 \times 30 \times 1}{0.8 \times 980 \times 0.05} \] 3. **Calculating**: - Numerator: \( 2 \times 30 = 60 \) - Denominator: \( 0.8 \times 980 \times 0.05 = 39.2 \) \[ H = \frac{60}{39.2} \approx 1.53 \text{ cm} \] ### Part (b): Tube inclined at 30 degrees 1. **Using the relationship between vertical height (H) and length of liquid column (x)**: When the tube is inclined at an angle of 30 degrees, the relationship is given by: \[ \cos(30) = \frac{H}{x} \] Therefore, \[ x = \frac{H}{\cos(30)} \] 2. **Substituting values**: - \( H = 1.53 \) cm - \( \cos(30) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \) Plugging in the values: \[ x = \frac{1.53}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}} = \frac{1.53 \times 2}{\sqrt{3}} \approx \frac{3.06}{1.732} \approx 1.77 \text{ cm} \] ### Final Answers: - (a) The height of the liquid in the tube when held vertically is approximately **1.53 cm**. - (b) The length of the liquid column in the tube when inclined at 30 degrees is approximately **1.77 cm**.
