# The following observations were taken for determining the surface tension of water by capillary tube method : diameter of capillary , $D = 1.25 \times 10^{-2} m$. Taking $g = 9.80 m s^{-2}$ and using the relation $T = (rgh/2) \times 10^3 Nm^{-1}$. what is the possible error in measurement of surface tension T?
