APPARATUS SUPPLIED WITH THIS EXPERIMENT
In this experiment, the surface tension of water is determined using the capillary rise method. When a clean glass capillary tube is placed in water, the liquid rises inside the tube due to capillary action.
By measuring the height of rise and the radius of the capillary tube, the surface tension of water can be calculated accurately. This experiment helps students understand the relationship between intermolecular forces, capillary action, and fluid behavior, making it an important practical application of engineering physics.
