The force required to separate two glass plates of area with a film of water 0.05 mm thick between them, is (Surface tension of water is N/m)
(a) Force required to separate the plates
Oil spreads over the surface of water whereas water does not spread over the surface of the oil, due to
(a)
The surface tension of the water is more than oil. Therefore, when oil is poured over water, the greater value of surface tension of water pulls the oil in all direction and as such it spreads on the water. On the other hand, when water is poured over oil, it does not spread over it because the surface tension of oil is less than that of water, it is not able to pull water over it.
Cohesive force is experienced between
(c) The cohesive force is the force of attraction between the molecules of same substance.
The property utilized in the manufacture of lead shots is
(d)
The dimensions of surface tension are
(c)
A wooden stick 2m long is floating on the surface of water. The surface tension of water 0.07 N/m. By putting soap solution on one side of the sticks the surface tension is reduced to 0.06 N/m. The net force on the stick will be
(d) Net force on stick
=(0.07-0.06)l = 0.01x2 = 0.02 N
The force required to take away a flat circular plate of radius 2 cm from the surface of water, will be (the surface tension of water is 70 dyne/cm)
(a) Force
Surface tension may be defined as
(a)
Energy needed in breaking a drop of radius R into n drops of radii r is given by
(a) Energy needed = Increment in surface energy
= (surface energy of n small drops) – (surface energy of one big drop)
The potential energy of a molecule on the surface of liquid compared to one inside the liquid is -
(d)
When the surface area of the liquid is increased molecules from the interior of the liquid rise to the surface. This work is stored in the molecules in the form of ofpotential energy. Thus, the potential energy of the molecules lying on the surface is greater than that of the molecules in the interior of the liquid.
