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
The energy needed to break a drop of radius \(R\) into \(n\) drops of radii \(r\) is given by:
1. \(4 πT ( nr ^2 - R ^2 )\)
2. \(\frac{4}{3} \pi \left(r^{3} n - R^{2}\right)\)
3. \(4 πT \left(R^{2} -nr^{2}\right)\)
4. \(4 πT \left(nr^{2}+R^{2} \right)\)
