Capillary height is inversely proportional to radius of tube. Option B.

Niranjan said:   2 years ago
Due to capillary, the rise and fall of water has happened in the tube.

Deepesh said:   7 years ago
Kinetic energy and pressure energy is converted to a head of water.

PRABHA said:   8 years ago
Water tends to rise because it has capillary rise property.

Abhijith said:   1 decade ago
Combined effect of adhesion cohesion and surface tension.

Alam said:   3 years ago
Fluid rise due to adhesion and fall due to cohesion.
(2)

Rahul kumar said:   1 decade ago
Due to cohesion and adhesion fluid rise up and down.

Ravikumar said:   1 decade ago
It is rise due to pressure in each water particle.
