Question 1
A glass tube has an outer diameter of 5 mm and an inner diameter of 3 mm. If the angle of contact is 30 degrees and the surface tension of water is 0.072 N/m, calculate the height of water rise.
💡 Hint: Substitute known values for \\(\\sigma\\), \\(\\phi\\), \\(D\\), \\(d\\), and gravitational acceleration.
Question 2
Explain how increasing the inner diameter of an annular tube affects the capillary rise.
💡 Hint: Reflect on how the forces balance in larger tubes.
