Surface tension in capillaries

[QUOTE="zircons, post: 4504131, member: 396676"] The figures below represent capillaries of varying construction and arrangement. The diameter of the capillary portion is the same in each case, and all of the capillaries are constructed of glass, except where otherwise indicated. The equilibrium rise for water is shown at the left. Draw meniscuses in each figure to correspond to (a) the level reached by water rising up the clean, dry tube and (b) the level to which the water would recede after having been sucked up to the end of the capillary. The meniscuses in the capillary may be assumed to be hemispherical in shape. Pay attention to curvatures of meniscus as well. [ATTACH=full]163948[/ATTACH] a) I think that they the water would just take up the same amount of volume in each tube? I'm confused about the paraffin one though. b) I don't get this at all. [/QUOTE]
