Water rises to a height h in capillary tube . If the length of capillary tube is above the surface of water is made less than h, then

1. water rises upto the tip of capillary tube and then starts overflowing like a fountain

2. water rises upto the top of capillary tube and stays there without overflowing

3. water rises upto a point a little below the top and stays there

4. water does not rise at all
