    Plants get water through the roots because of

  • Capillarity
  • Viscosity
  • Gravity
  • Elasticity
  • 4. 
    Choose the wrong statement from the following.

  • Small droplets of a liquid are spherical due to surface tension
  • Oil rises through the wick due to capillarity
  • In drinking the cold drinks through a straw, we use the phenomenon of capillarity
  • Gum is used to stick two surfaces. In this process we use the property of Adhesion
  • 5. 
    The height of a liquid in a fine capillary tube

  • Increases with an increase in the density of a liquid
  • Decreases with a decrease in the diameter of the tube
  • Decreases with an increase in the surface tension
  • Increases as the effective value of acceleration due to gravity is decreased
  • 6. 
    At critical temperature, the surface tension of a liquid

  • Is zero
  • Is infinity
  • Is the same as that at any other temperature
  • Can not be determined
  • 7. 
    A capillary tube when immersed vertically in a liquid records a rise of 3 cm. if the tube is immersed in the liquid at an angle of 60° with the vertical, then length of the liquid column along the tube will be

  • 2 cm
  • 3 cm
  • 6 cm
  • 9 cm
  • 8. 
    When the angle of contact between a solid and a liquid is 90°, then

  • Cohesive force > Adhesive force
  • Cohesive force < Adhesive force
  • Cohesive force = Adhesive force
  • Cohesive force >> Adhesive force
  • 9.
