The ratio of surface tensions of mercury and water is given to be 7.5
while the ratio of their densities is 13.6. Their contact angles, with glass,
are close to , respectively. It is observed that mercury gets
depressed by an amount h in a capillary tube of radius , while water rises
by the same amount h in a capillary tube of radius . The ratio, , is then close to :
