How does water rise vertically in plants?
capillary action
What is the name of the phenomenon in which thin liquids in thin tubes rise above or fall beneath their own levels?
The phenomenon is known as capillary action. It occurs due to intermolecular forces between the liquid molecules and the solid surface of the tube, causing the liquid to either rise or fall, depending on the properties of the liquid and the tube.
What is the alternate rise and fall in the level of sea water?
The rise and fall is the tides.
Why does capillary pipe have a very tiny hole?
Capillary pipes have very tiny holes to enhance the surface tension of the liquid inside, allowing it to rise or fall along the walls of the tube. This facilitates the movement of fluids in the capillary tube without the need for pumps and enables precise measurements in devices like thermometers and pressure gauges.
The rise of water in a narrow test tube is called?
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.
Derive an expression for expression for rise of liquid in a capillary tube?
deduce an expression for height of a liquid in capillary tube. also write practical applications of capillary action.
Why does mercury fall downwards and water rise upwards when placed in a capillary tube?
Mercury is more dense than water.
Why do liquid rise of fall in a capillary tube?
It is because of the surface tension between liquid molecules and the inner surface of the tube. The meniscus height is determined by the inner diameter of the tube. The smaller the diameter, the higher the meniscus will climb due to capillary action.
How does juice rise in a pipe?
due to capillary action
Methods of porosity meassuring for stones?

What is the tendency of a liquid to rise in a small diameter tube called?
The 'capillary effect'. See the link.
What we called the tendency of liquid molecules to rise spontaneously up tubes with narrow diameters?
That is capillary attraction.
What is the name of the phenomenon in which thin liquids in thin tubes rise above or fall beneath their own levels?
The phenomenon is known as capillary action. It occurs due to intermolecular forces between the liquid molecules and the solid surface of the tube, causing the liquid to either rise or fall, depending on the properties of the liquid and the tube.
Does the equator rise or fall?
It does not rise or fall. It is an imaginary line.
What is the rise and fall of water due to gravity called?
The rise of water is called capillary action, which occurs when water travels upwards in a narrow space, such as a tube, due to adhesive and cohesive forces. The fall of water due to gravity is called drainage or runoff, where water flows downhill following the path of least resistance.
How high can water rise in a capillary tube 30 micrometers in diameter?
4.6
