                When tube of smaller diameter Dipped in water, the water rises due to capillary phenomenon.

                It will rises due to capillary action.

                It will rise due to surface tension.

                It is rise due to the cohesion and adhesion property of capillary phenomenon of surface tension.

                Answer correct because of its liquid pressure increased so change its viscosity temperature and contractions.

                The height liquid rises in the glass tube is depend upon the density of the fluid as per the formula.

                Kinetic energy converted into pressure energy.

                It is rise due to capillary or surface tension.

                Wetting of surface because of viscosity whereas rise in water because of surface tension.

                It is rise due to pressure in each water particle.
