Title: How can I find the amount of water in a capillary that won't drop?
Post by: scientizscht on 17/08/2019 23:33:13

Hello!

If I fill a capillary with water, how can I find how much water it can hold so that it won't drop out when I hold it vertically?

For different capillary diameters and heights.

thanks!

Suck it and see - literally! As mentioned in another thread, there are so many variables that a general equation is worthless.
