Calculate the height to which the water will rise in a capillary tube of 1.5 mm diameter (surface tension of water `=74 times 10^(-3)Nm^(-1)`, angle of contact between water and glass `=0^(@)`).

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the height to which water will rise in a capillary tube, we can use the formula for capillary rise: \[ H = \frac{2T \cos \theta}{R \rho g} \] Where: - \( H \) = height of the liquid column (in meters) ...
