Physics Question from JEE Main 2025 · 4 April, Shift 1

Two liquids A and B have θA\theta_{\mathrm{A}} and θB\theta_{\mathrm{B}} as contact angles in a capillary tube. If K=cosθA/cosθBK=\cos \theta_{\mathrm{A}} / \cos \theta_{\mathrm{B}}, then identify the correct statement:

  • A

    K is negative, then liquid A and liquid B have convex meniscus.

  • B

    K is negative, then liquid A and liquid B have concave meniscus.

  • C

    K is negative, then liquid A has concave meniscus and liquid B has convex meniscus.

  • D

    K is zero, then liquid A has convex meniscus and liquid B has concave meniscus.
