A liquid in a given capillary tube always rises up to a fixed height but not infinitely why

Physics
1 answer:
podryga [215]3 years ago
6 0

The answer is; the density of the liquid suppresses the height to which it can rise

The density acts in the opposite direction of capillary action. Capillary action allows the liquid to rise in the tube and the narrower the tube the higher the capillary action and the higher the liquid rises. The denser the liquid however, the lower it will rise. The column stops rising when the capillary force is balanced by the weight of the rising liquid due to gravity.

Define output work and input work​
Olenka [21]

Answer: Input work is the work done on a machine as the input force acts through the input distance.Other ways it would be the work done on a body or system, that is, forces that are applied to the body or system. This is in contrast to output work which is a force that is applied by the body or system to something else.Output work is the work done by a machine as the output force acts through the output distance. The machine does to the object to increase the output distance.

When the mass of the sun is larger, Earth moves around the sun at a faster or slower pace.
maw [93]
-- The mass of the sun never increases.

-- It does decrease, but not nearly enough to have any noticeable
effect on the orbital motion of the Earth, or any other planet.

-- When Earth is closer to the sun, it moves faster in its orbit.

-- When Earth is farther from the sun, it moves slower in its orbit.

-- The result is that the line from the sun to the Earth always covers
the same amount of area in the same length of time. 

-- Johannes Kepler noticed this, and it's his Second Law of planetary motion.

-- Newton showed that if his equations for gravity and motion are correct, 
then planets MUST behave this way.
