A mercury drop of radius \(10^{-3}\,m\) is broken into \(125\) equal size droplets. Surface tension of mercury is \(0.45\,Nm ^{-1}\). The gain in surface energy is \(......\times 10^{-5}\,J\)
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(2.26\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Initial surface energy \(=0.45 \times 4 \pi\left(10^{-3}\right)^2\)
\(\frac{4}{3} \pi\left(10^{-3}\right)^3=125 \times \frac{4 \pi}{3} R_{\text {new }}^3\)
\(10^{-3}=5 R_{\text {new }}\)
\(R_{\text {new }}=\frac{10^{-3}}{5}\,m\)
So, final surface energy \(=0.45 \times 125 \times 4 \pi\left(\frac{10^{-3}}{5}\right)^2\)
Increase in energy \(=0.45 \times 4 \pi \times\left(10^{-3}\right)^2\left[\frac{125}{25}-1\right]\)
\(=4 \times 0.45 \times 4 \pi \times 10^{-6}\)
\(=2.26 \times 10^{-5}\,J\)
