kindly help me with this simple question from which is the correct answer 

A group of students performed two separate experiments using the same
liquid to determine the surface tension of the liquid by the capillary rise
method. All conditions, reagents, and apparatus used were the same
except for the capillary tube, which was replaced with one having a
smaller inner radius. In this experiment, a calibrating liquid was not used as
the inner radius of the capillary tubes were already determined. How
would this affect the data collected by the students on the two
experiments?
The displacement, h, of the liquid inside the capillary tubes for both experiments will
be of different values.
The density of the liquid in the first experiment would be less than the second.
The density of the liquid in the first experiment would be greater than the second.
The displacement, h, of the liquid inside the capillary tubes for both experiments will
be of the same value.
The method of capillary rise is based on the height to which the liquid in
the capillary will rise before the force due to surface tension is balanced by
the normal force
no answer from the choices
the upward force
the force due to gravity
