Calculate the height to which water will rise in a capillary tube of diameter `1xx10^(-3)`m [given surface tension of water is `0.072Nm^(-1)` angle of contact is `0^(@),g=9.8ms^(-2)` and density of water `=1000kgm^(-3)`]

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Height of capillary rise `h=(2Tcostheta)/(rrhog)`
`=(2xx0.072xxcostheta^(@))/(5xx10^(-4)xx1000xx9.8)=2.94xx10^(-2)m`.
