Cancave is the right answer due to capillary action.

Concave is the right answer. I agree with the given option.

Abhijeet said:   8 years ago
Cancave is right for water.

Pankaj said:   8 years ago
Capillary rise will happen because the adhesive force is greater than cohesive force hence angle <90 hence concave is right.
