MCQ
Given below are two statements:

$Statement$ $I$ : If a capillary tube is immersed first in cold water and then in hot water, the height of capillary rise will be smaller in hot water.

$Statement$ $II$ : If a capillary tube is immersed first in cold water and then in hot water, the height of capillary rise will be smaller in cold water.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate from the options given below

  • A
     Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are true
  • B
     Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are false
  •  Statement$I$ is true but Statement $II$ is false
  • D
     Statement $I$ is false but Statement $II$ is true

Answer

Correct option: C.
 Statement$I$ is true but Statement $II$ is false
c
Surface tension will be less as temperature increases

$\mathrm{h}=\frac{2 \mathrm{~T} \cos \theta}{\rho \mathrm{gr}}$

Height of capillary rise will be smaller in hot water and larger in cold water.

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.

Assertion $A$: A bar magnet dropped through a metallic cylindrical pipe takes more time to come down compared to a non-magnetic bar with same geometry and mass.

Reason $R$: For the magnetic bar, Eddy currents are produced in the metallic pipe which oppose the motion of the magnetic bar.
