उत्तर
\[\text{ Given }: \]
\[\text{ l = 10 cm }\]
\[\alpha = {45}^0 \]
\[\text{ Rise in water level after the tube is tilted = h}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \text{ l = h} \cos {45}^0 \]
\[ \Rightarrow h = \frac{l}{\cos {45}^0} = \frac{10}{\left( \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \right)} = 10\sqrt{2}\text{ cm }\]

Is surface tension a vector?
Surface tension is exhibited by liquids due to force of attraction between molecules of the liquid. The surface tension decreases with increase in temperature and vanishes at boiling point.
