A 20 cm long capillary tube is dipped vertically in water and the liquid rises upto 10 cm. If the entire system is kept is a freely falling platform, the length of the water column in the tube will be

A

5 cm

B

10 cm

C

15 cm

D

20 cm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
In freely platform a body experience weight lessness, So,the liquid will rise upto to a length of the capillary. i.e., height raised by the liqud will be 20 cm.
