Capillary rise from surface tension and contact angle ===================================================== The Jurin's law determines the height to which the liquid rises in capillaries. It states that the maximum height of a liquid in a capillary tube is inversely proportional to the tube's diameter. **Notation:** #. :math:`g` (:code:`g`) is :attr:`~symplyphysics.quantities.acceleration_due_to_gravity`. **Conditions:** #. The surface of the meniscus is spherical. #. Height :math:`h` of the raised (lowered) liquid is much larger than the radius :math:`r` of the capillary. **Links:** #. `Wikipedia `__. ..
