Civil Engineering Students – soil mechanics – capillary rise?

Compute the capillary rise for water in a tube having a diameter of 0.005 cm. For water at normal conditions σ = 73 dynes/cm.

hehe..tingnan mu nga nmn..ikaw pla nagtanong neto..wee..
1 dyne = 1microNewton
h = (4σ)/(d*Yw)
Yw = density of water = 981 g/cm^2*s^2
h = 59.53 cm
