A capillary tube is dipped in water vertically. It is long enough for the water to rise to the maximum height `h` in the tube. The length of portion immersed in water is `I lt h`. The lower end of the tube is closed and then the tube is taken out and opened again. Will all the water flow out of tube? Explain.

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the behavior of water in a capillary tube when the lower end is closed and then opened again after being taken out of the water. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Capillary Action**: - When a capillary tube is dipped in water, the water rises due to capillary action, which is influenced by surface tension and the adhesive forces between the water and the tube's walls. 2. **Maximum Height of Water**: ...
