JEE MAIN - Physics (2008 - No. 21)
A capillary tube (A) is dipped in water. Another identical tube (B) is dipped in a soap-water solution. Which of the following shows the relative nature of the liquid columns in the two tubes?
Wyjaśnienie
The surface tension $$(I)$$ of soap solution is less than water. Therefore rise of soap solution in the capillary tube is less as compared to water. As in the case of water. the meniscus shape of soap solution is also concave upwards.
