Question

The relationship between capillary rise

Answer 1

Capillary action occurs when the adhesion to the surface material is stronger than the cohesive forces between the water molecules. The height to which capillary action will take water is limited by surface tension and gravity. Notice in the photos above the effect that gravity has on capillary action.
