A wooden stick 2 m long is floating on the surface of the water. The surface tension of water is 0.07 N/m. By putting soap solution on one side of the stick, the surface tension is reduced to 0.06 N/m. The net force on the stick due to surface tension will be:
1. | 0.07 N | 2. | 0.06 N |
3. | 0.01 N | 4. | 0.02 N |
Surface tension may be defined as
(1) The work done per unit area in increasing the surface area of a liquid under isothermal condition
(2) The work done per unit area in increasing the surface area of a liquid under adiabatic condition
(3) The work done per unit area in increasing the surface area of a liquid under both isothermal and adiabatic conditions
(4) Free surface energy per unit volume
