Statement

4.5.12. [Insert the problem statement]

For problem $4.5.12$

Solution

The sum of the forces acting on the volume of liquid highlighted in the figure is zero,so let's write force balance to the axis:

where is an average pressure of the liquid.As pressure linearly increasing with depth we get:

Plugging eq(2) into eq(1) we get rise height of the liquid:

In the case of complete wetting, the contact angle is zero,so:

For the water , and ,so:
