Ina capillary tube experiment a vertical 30 cm long capillary tube is dipped intothe water . It rises to a height of 10cm due to capillary action.If this experiment is conducted in a free falling elevator the length of the water column becomes?
•GIVEN:
→Length of capillary=30cm
→Water rises to a height (h)=10cm
We know that:
h=
In this case we will take g as so the free falling elevator will have g as 0.
So we get the value of h as ∞
Thus the lenght of water column will be as same as the length of capillary tube that is 30cm
Answer:
h=30cm is the right answer.
Explanation:
30cm length of capillary tube
The following formula was used:
T=rhdg/2 h=2T/rdg
In a freely falling elevator, the gravitational acceleration is zero.
h=to the water will rise to the greatest height available, hence h=30cm.
