Physics Question on mechanical properties of fluid

A beaker of radius 15cm15\, cm is filled with a liquid of surface tension 0.75N/m0.75\, N/m. Force across an imaginary diameter on the surface of the liquid is

A

0.075N0.075\,N

B

1.5×102N1.5\times {{10}^{-2}}N

C

0.225N0.225\,N

D

2.25×102N2.25\times {{10}^{-2}}\,N

Answer

2.25×102N2.25\times {{10}^{-2}}\,N

Explanation

Solution

Given that surface tension =0.075N/m=0.075\, N / m;
diameter =30cm=0.30m=30\, cm =0.30\, m
\therefore Force =0.075×0.30=0.0225N=2.25×102N=0.075 \times 0.30=0.0225\, N =2.25 \times 10^{-2} N
