How to Evaluate Weight of Liquid Column in Capillary Tube?

Weight of Liquid Column in Capillary Tube evaluator uses Weight of Liquid Column in Capillary = Density*[g]*pi*(Radius of Capillary Tube^2)*Height of Capillary Rise to evaluate the Weight of Liquid Column in Capillary, The Weight of Liquid Column in Capillary Tube formula is defined as the function of density of fluid, radius of capillary, height of capillary. The magnitude of the capillary rise in a circular tube can be determined from a force balance on the cylindrical liquid column of height h in the tube. The bottom of the liquid column is at the same level as the free surface of the reservoir, and thus the pressure there must be atmospheric pressure. This balances the atmospheric pressure acting at the top surface of the liquid column, and thus these two effects cancel each other. Weight of Liquid Column in Capillary is denoted by W symbol.

How to evaluate Weight of Liquid Column in Capillary Tube using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Weight of Liquid Column in Capillary Tube, enter Density (ρ), Radius of Capillary Tube (Rc) & Height of Capillary Rise (hCapillary) and hit the calculate button.
