Solution

The correct option is C $5.7 c m$
The rise in the tube is given as,

$h = \frac{2 T cos θ}{r ρ g}$

$= \frac{2 \times 7 \times 10^{- 2} cos 0^{\circ}}{0.25 \times 10^{- 3} \times 1 \times 10^{3} \times 9.8}$

$= 5.71 \times 10^{- 2} m$

$= 5.71 c m$

Thus, the rise in the tube is $5.71 c m$ .
