Question
EXAMPLE 9.17 Rising WaterUse the worked example above to help you solve this problem. Find the height to which water would rise in a capillary tube with radius equal to 4.6 10-5 m. Assume that the contact angle between the water and the material of the tube is small enough to be considered zero.
m CORRECT ANSWER
Suppose ethyl alcohol rises 0.170 m in a thin tube. Estimate the radius of the tube, assuming the contact angle is approximately zero. (Use 0.022 N/m and 806 kg/m3 for the surface tension and density of ethyl alcohol respectively.)
m NEED ANSWER
Explanation / Answer
sorry, the calculation went wrong some where answer comes out as: 3.276*10^-5 m
