Two capillary tubes of same diameter are put vertically one each in two liquids whose relative densities are 0.8 and 0.6 and surface tensions are 60 dyne/cm and 50 dyne/cm respectively. Ratio of heights of liquids in the two tubes `(h_(1))/(h_(2))` is

A

`10/9`

B

`3/10`

C

`10/3`

D

`9/10`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`h prop sigma/rho`
`implies h_1/h_2=sigma_1/sigma_2xxrho_2/rho_1=60/50xx(0.6)/(0.8)=9/10`
