A vertical capillary of radius r is brought in contact with water of density ρ and surface tension S . If the angle of contact is zero, then the amount of heat liberated while the water rises along the capillary, is
Options
- A2 π S 2 ρ g
- Bπ S 2 ρ g
- CZero
- D4 π S 2 ρ g
Correct answer
A. 2 π S 2 ρ g
Step-by-step solution
W ST = πr 2 h ρg h , W g = πr 2 h ρg h 2 Heat = Q = W ST - W g = πr 2 ρg h 2 2 and h = 2 S r ρg ⇒ Q = 2 πS 2 ρg
