Capillarity or Capillary action or capillary motion or wicking is the ability of a liquid to flow in narrow spaces without the assistance of, and in opposition to, external forces like gravity.
Some applications of capillarity are:
a. Towels soak water on account of capillarity.
b. Oil rises in the long narrow spaces between the threads of the wick as they act as a capillary.
