JEE Main 2013 Physics question
Wax is coated on the inner wall of a capillary tube and the tube is then dipped in water. Then, compared to the unwaxed capillary, the angle of contact θ and the height h upto which water rises change. These changes are :
Answer: (3)
Solution
Water does not wet wax, so the angle of contact increases (towards or beyond 90°). Since $h =
