A 20 cm long capillary tube is dipped in water. The water rises up to 8 cm. If the entire arrangement is put in a freely falling elevator, the length of water column in the capillary tube will be

Text Solution

It entire arrangement is in free fall then the weight of water in capillary will be balaced by pseduo force which would be equal to the weight of water. Hence, surface tension has no weight to balance so full capillary will be filled with water.
