Identify the correct figure which shows the relation between the height of water column in a capillary tube and the capillary radius.

Figure

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. h=2Tcos⁡θrρg⇒hrh = \frac{2T\cos\theta}{r\rho g} \Rightarrow hr = constant.
  2. The hh vs rr graph is a rectangular hyperbola, which is figure (B).
  3. Figure (B) is option (a).
