Surface Tension
PHXI10:MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF FLUIDS

361310 A container of width \(2 a\) is filled with a liquid. A thin wire of mass per unit length \(\lambda\) is gently placed over the liquid surface in the middle of surface as shown. As a result the liquid surface is depressed by a distance \(y(y < < a)\). Determine the surface tension of the liquid.

361311 Surface tension is an atomic/molecular property of

1 Atoms in the interior
2 Atoms at the center
3 Atoms which are exterior
4 Atoms at surface bounded entirely by different atoms

361312 A thin metal disc of radius \(r\) floats on water surface and bends the surface downwards along the perimeter making an angle \(\theta\) with vertical edge of the disc. If the disc displaces a weight of water \(W\) and surface tension of water is \(T\), then the weight of metal disc is

1 \(2 \pi r T+W\)
2 \(2 \pi r T \cos \theta-W\)
3 \(2 \pi r T \cos \theta+W\)
4 \(W-2 \pi r T \cos \theta\)
