Q.

A tapering glass capillary tube A of length 0.1 m has diameters 103 m and  5×104m  at the ends. When it is just immersed in a liquid at 0C   with larger radius in contact with liquid surface, the liquid rises 8×102 m in the tube. In another experiment, in the cylindrical glass capillary tube B, when immersed in the same liquid at 0C   , the liquid rises to 6×102m  height. The rise of liquid in tube B is only 5.5×102m  when the liquid is at 50C . Find the rate at which the surface tension changes with temperature considering the changes to be linear. The density of liquid is  114×104kg/m3and the angle of contact is zero. Effect of temperature on the density of liquid and glass is negligible.
