Gravity. When the water column stops rising, cohesion + surface tension < gravity.
The rise around the edges is called the meniscus, like capillary action this is caused by the adhesion of the liquid molecules to the walls of the container. In a large bore tube like a test tube or graduated cylinder this pulls up the edge and creates a concave meniscus, in a smaller bore tube this actually pulls the liquid toward the top of the tube.
Water rises in a capillary tube due to capillary action, which is the result of cohesive forces between water molecules and adhesive forces between water and the tube's surface. The narrow diameter of the tube enhances these forces, allowing the water to climb against gravity. This phenomenon is particularly pronounced in materials with high surface tension, such as water, making it an essential principle in various biological and physical processes.

The property of water that gives rise to capillary action is adhesion, which is the attraction between water molecules and the molecules of the material making up the capillary tube. This leads to water being pulled up the tube, against the force of gravity, due to the cohesive forces between water molecules.
Mercury falls in a capillary tube due to the combination of capillary action and gravity. Capillary action is the tendency of a liquid to be drawn up into a narrow tube against the force of gravity. When the adhesive forces between the mercury and the walls of the capillary tube are greater than the cohesive forces within the mercury, the mercury will move downward in the tube.
It will increase due to osmosis
You mean rise not rinse. Higher in a narrow tube due to capillary action.
When water rises from the soil by the roots of the plant. The capillary effect is done in a lot of things. Example: When water is obsorbed by the paper up the toilet paper tube.
