A capillary tube of radius r is immersed in water and water rises in it to a height h . The mass of water in the capillary tube is 5 ~g . Another capillary tube of radius 2 r is immersed in water. The mass of water that will rise in this tube is
Options
- A2.5 ~g
- B5.0 ~g
- C10 ~g
- D20 ~g
Correct answer
C. 10 ~g
Step-by-step solution
: h= 2 S r g Mass of water in the first tube, aligned m= & r^2 h = r^2 ( 2 S r g ) & = 2 r S g aligned m r . Hence, m^ m = 2 r r =2 or m^ =2 m=2 5 g=10 g .
