To find the weight of the water raised in the capillary tube, we can use the formula for weight, which is mass times acceleration due to gravity (W=mgW = mg). The mass of the water can be found by multiplying its density by its volume (m=ρVm = \rho V). The volume of the water in the capillary tube is the volume of a cylinder, V=πr2hV = \pi r^2 h.

From the previous question (Q11), we have the following values:

  • Radius of the capillary tube, r=0.5 mm=0.5×10−3 mr = 0.5 \text{ mm} = 0.5 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m}
  • Density of water, ρ=1000 kg/m3\rho = 1000 \text{ kg/m}^3
  • Acceleration due to gravity, g=9.8 m/s2g = 9.8 \text{ m/s}^2
  • Height of water raised, h=2γcos⁡θρgrh = \frac{2\gamma \cos\theta}{\rho g r}. From the previous calculation, we found h=398 mh = \frac{3}{98} \text{ m}.

Step 1: Calculate the volume of the raised water.
The volume of the cylindrical column of water is V=πr2hV = \pi r^2 h.

V=π×(0.5×10−3 m)2×(398 m)V = \pi \times (0.5 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m})^2 \times \left(\frac{3}{98} \text{ m}\right) V=π×(0.25×10−6 m2)×(398 m)V = \pi \times (0.25 \times 10^{-6} \text{ m}^2) \times \left(\frac{3}{98} \text{ m}\right) V=0.75π98×10−6 m3V = \frac{0.75 \pi}{98} \times 10^{-6} \text{ m}^3

Step 2: Calculate the mass of the raised water.
The mass is m=ρVm = \rho V.

m=(1000 kg/m3)×(0.75π98×10−6 m3)m = (1000 \text{ kg/m}^3) \times \left(\frac{0.75 \pi}{98} \times 10^{-6} \text{ m}^3\right) m=0.75π98×10−3 kgm = \frac{0.75 \pi}{98} \times 10^{-3} \text{ kg}

Step 3: Calculate the weight of the raised water.
The weight is W=mgW = mg.
