उत्तर
Given:
Surface tension of water T = 0.075 N/m
Separation between the glass plates d = 1 mm = 10−3 m
Density of water ρ = 103 kg/m3
Applying law of conservation of energy:
T (2L) = [1 × (10−3) × h] ρg
\[\Rightarrow \text{ h} = \frac{2 \times \left( 0 . 075 \right)}{{10}^{- 3} \times {10}^3 \times 10}\]
\[ = 0 . 015 \text{ m = 1 . 5 cm }\]
Therefore, the rise of water in the space between the plates is 1.5 cm.
