Determine the surface tension coefficient for a given liquid on glass from its rise in a capillary tube (P1) ) A clean glass capillary tube of internal diameter 0.55mm is

held vertically with its lower end in water. If the water rises to a height of 53.4mm in the tube, determine the value of the surface tension coefficient, y. ) For the tube in the previous example, the three parameters were changed in turn. For each, give the effect of the change upon the resulting height of the fluid in the capillary tube. If the tube diameter is halved If the surface tension coefficient is doubled Oil is used instead of water For part (b), you must give a clear and detailed explanation of the resulting changes on specific parameters.
