When a glass capillary tube of the radius0.015 cmis dipped in water, the water rises to a height of15 cmwithin it. Assuming the contact angle between water and glass to be0°, the surface tension of water is[ρwater =1000 kg m-3, g=9.81 m s-2]

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

From capillary tube experiment, we know that

2πr×T cosθ=πr2hρg

⇒  T=rhρg2=0.11 N m-1
