Problem

A glass capillary tube is of the shape of a truncated cone with an apex angle α\alpha so that its two ends have cross sections of different radii. When dipped in water vertically, water rises in it to a height hh, where the radius of its cross section is bb. If the surface tension of water is SS, its density is ρ\rho, and its contact angle with glass is θ\theta, the value of hh will be (gg is the acceleration due to gravity)
