Q. The lower end of a capillary of tube is immersed in Hg. The level of Hg in the tube is found to be 2 cm below the outer level. If the same tube is immersed in water, upto what height will the water rise in the capillary ?
it is not important where u stand, but in which direction u are moving
where T is surface tension of liquid d is density of liquid r is radius of capillary and @ is contact angle, In this case only r is equall. You can answer only if you know other quantities.
