Assertion : The water rises higher in a ...

Assertion : The water rises higher in a capillary tube of small diameter than in the capillary tube of large diameter.
Reason : Height through which liquid rise in capillary tube inversely proportional to the diameter of capillary tube.

A

If both Assertion and Reason ar true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

B

If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

C

If Assertion is true but Reason is false.

D

If both Assertion and Reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The height of capillary rise is inversely proportional to radius (or diameter) or capillary tube `h alpha (1)/(r )`
So, for smaller r the value of h is higher.
