Question 202: Properties of Matter

Question

A $$20$$ $$cm$$ long capillary tube is dipped in water. The water rises up to $$8$$ $$cm.$$ If the entire arrangement is put in a freely falling elevator the length of water column in the capillary tube will be

Accepted Answer

In freely falling elevator $$g$$ = 0
Water fills the tube entirely in gravity less condition. Hence, length of water column in the capillary tube is 20 cm.
