Angle of Contact & Capillarity question from MHT CET 2023 (14 May, Shift 1)

Q46MHT CET 2023 · 14 MAY · SHIFT 1Medium

Angle of Contact & Capillarity

Water rises in a capillary tube of radius ' $r$ ' upto a height ' $h$ '. The mass of water in a capillary is ' $m$ '. The mass of water that will rise in a capillary tube of radius $\frac{r}{3}$ will be

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

Weight of column $mg = 2\pi rT$ , so $m \propto r$ .
Radius $\frac{r}{3} \Rightarrow$ mass $\frac{m}{3}$ .
So the answer is (b) $\frac{m}{3}$ .
