In a surface tension experiment with a capillary tube water rises upto `0.1m`. If the same experiment is repeated in an artificial satellite, which is revolving around the earth, water will rise in the capillary tube upto a height of

A

0. 1m

B

9.8 m

C

0.98 m

D

full length of capillary tube

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

In artifical satellite, weight of water is zero but surface tension of water will act as usual, so water will rise to any height available. Thus, the water will rise to full length of capillary tube.
