Mechanical Properties of Fluids

143009 A long glass capillary tube is dipped in water. It is known that water wets glass. The water level rises by $h$ in the tube. The tube is now pushed down so that only a length $h / 2$ is outside the water surface. The angle of contact at the water surface at the upper end of the tube will be

1 $\tan _{2}^{-1}$
2 $60^{\circ}$
3 $30^{\circ}$
4 $15^{\circ}$

143010 A vessel, whose bottom has found holes with diameter of $1 \mathrm{~mm}$ is filled with water. Assuming that surface tension acts only at holes, then the maximum height to which the water can be filled in vessel without leakage is

1 $3 \mathrm{~cm}$
2 $0.3 \mathrm{~cm}$
3 $3 \mathrm{~mm}$
4 $3 \mathrm{~m}$
(Surface tension of water is $75 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}$ and $\mathrm{g}$ $=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ )
