A colleague is trying to measure the diameter of a capillary tube, something that is very difficult to physically accomplish. Since you are a Fluid Dynamics student, you know that the diameter can be easily calculated after doing a simple experiment. You take a clean glass capillary tube and place it in a container of pure water and observe that the water rises in the tube to a height of 17.5 millimeters. You take a sample of the water and measure the mass of 100 mls to be 97.18 grams and you measure the temperature of the water to be 80°C. Please calculate the diameter of your colleague’s capillary tube.
