The excess of pressure, due to surface tension, on a spherical liquid drop of radius ‘R’ is proportional to
- A
- B
- C
- D
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The excess of pressure due to surface tension on a spherically liquid drop is given by
….(i)
where, T = surface tension
and R = radius of liquid drop.
So, from Eq. (i), we get
….(i)
where, T = surface tension
and R = radius of liquid drop.
So, from Eq. (i), we get
