If the surface tension of water is \(0.06~\text{N/m}^2,\) then the capillary rise in a tube of diameter \(1~\text{mm}\) is:
\((\theta = 0^{\circ})\)

1. \(1.22~\text {m}\)
2. \(2.44~\text {cm}\)
3. \(3.12~\text {cm}\)
4. \(3.86~\text {cm}\)

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

1. water does not rise at all.
2. water rises up to the top of the capillary tube, then starts overflowing like a fountain.
3. water rises up to the top of the capillary tube and stays there without overflowing.
4. water rises up to a point a little below the top and stays there.

Three liquids of densities ρ1, ρ2 and  ρ3 (with ρ1>ρ2>ρ3), having the same value of surface tension T, rise to the same height in three identical capillaries. The angles of contact θ1,θ2 and θ3 obey:

1.  \(\frac{\pi}{2}>\theta_1>\theta_2>\theta_3 \geq 0\)    
2. \(0 \leq \theta_1<\theta_2<\theta_3<\frac{\pi}{2}\)
