Physics Question on mechanical properties of fluid
A beaker of radius 15cm is filled with a liquid of surface tension 0.75N/m. Force across an imaginary diameter on the surface of the liquid is
A
0.075N
B
1.5×10−2N
C
0.225N
D
2.25×10−2N
Answer
2.25×10−2N
Explanation
Solution
Given that surface tension =0.075N/m;
diameter =30cm=0.30m
∴ Force =0.075×0.30=0.0225N=2.25×10−2N
