A paper disc of radius ' R ' from which a circular hole of radius ' r ' is cut out, is floating in a liquid of surface tension ' \(T\) '. The force on the disc due to surface tension will be

  1. A \(\pi \mathrm{RT}\)
  2. B \(2 \pi(R+r) T\)
  3. C \(\pi(R+r) T\)
  4. D \(4 \pi(R+r) T\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(2 \pi(R+r) T\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(L = 2\pi R + 2\pi r\) \(L = 2\pi (R+r)\)
