A shell having a hole of radius r is dipped in water. It holds the water upto a depth of h then the value of r is

$r = \frac{2 T}{hdg}$

$r = \frac{T}{hdg}$

$r = \frac{Tg}{hd}$

None of these

Explanation

(a) $\frac{2 T}{r} = hdg \Rightarrow r = \frac{2 T}{hdg}$

In a capillary tube, water rises by 1.2 mm. The height of water that will rise in another capillary tube having half the radius of the first, is

1.2 mm

2.4 mm

0.6 mm

0.4 mm

Explanation

(b) $h \propto \frac{1}{r} ∴ r_{1} h_{1} = r_{2} h_{2} \Rightarrow h_{2} = \frac{r_{1} h_{1}}{r_{2}} = 2.4 mm$

Explanation

(a) $h \propto \frac{1}{r} ∴ rh = constant$

Water rises to a height h in a capillary at the surface of earth. On the surface of the moon the height of water column in the same capillary will be

$\frac{1}{6} h$

Zero

Explanation

(a)

$h = \frac{2 Tcosθ}{rdg} ∴ h \propto \frac{1}{g} As g_{m} = \frac{g_{e}}{6} ∴ h_{m} = 6 h_{e}$

Two capillary tubes of same diameter are put vertically one each in two liquids whose relative densities are 0.8 and 0.6 and surface tensions are 60 and 50 dyne/cm respectively Ratio of heights of liquids in the two tubes $\frac{h_{1}}{h_{2}}$ is

$\frac{10}{9}$

$\frac{3}{10}$

$\frac{10}{3}$

$\frac{9}{10}$

Explanation

(d) Ascent formula $h = \frac{2 Tcosθ}{rdg}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{h_{1}}{h_{2}} = \frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}} \times \frac{d_{2}}{d_{1}}$ (r, $θ$ and g are constants)

$= \frac{60}{50} \times \frac{0.6}{0.8} = \frac{9}{10}$

Water rises in a vertical capillary tube upto a height of 2.0 cm . If the tube is inclined at an angle of $60 °$ with the vertical, then upto what length the water will rise in the tube ?

2.0 cm

4.0 cm

$\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}} cm$

$2 \sqrt{2} cm$

Explanation

(b) $l = \frac{h}{cosθ} = \frac{2}{\cos 60 °} = 4.0 cm$

The surface tension for pure water in a capillary tube experiment is

$\frac{ρg}{2 hr}$

$\frac{2}{ρghr}$

$\frac{rρg}{2 h}$

$\frac{hrρg}{2}$

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.

Explanation

(d) $T = \frac{rhdg}{2 cosθ}$ . For pure water $θ = 0 °$ so $T = \frac{rhdg}{2}$

Explanation

(a) Kerosene oil rises up the wick in a lantern due to the surface tension of the oil.

● ● ● ● ●

Water rises against gravity in a capillary tube when its one end is dipped into water because
