NEET · Physics · STD 11 - 9.2 surface tension

A thin flat circular disc of radius \(4.5 \mathrm{~cm}\) is placed gently over the surface of water. If surface tension of water is \(0.07 \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{~m}^{-1}\), then the excess force required to take it away from the surface is

  1. A \(198 \mathrm{~N}\)
  2. B \(1.98 \mathrm{mN}\)
  3. C \(99 \mathrm{~N}\)
  4. D \(19.8 \mathrm{mN}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(19.8 \mathrm{mN}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\text { Excess force }=T \times 2 \pi R\) \(=\frac{7}{100} \times 2 \times 3.14 \times \frac{4.5}{100}\)
