Some rocks or bricks contain small air pockets in them and have a spongy structure. Assuming the air spaces form columns of an average diameter of 5 µm, determine how high water can rise in such a material. Take the surface tension of the air-water interface in that material to be 0.085 N/m. The capillary rise in such a material is m.
