The energy of the free surface of a liquid drop is 5π times the surface tension of the liquid. Find the diameter of the drop in C.G.S. system.
उत्तर
Given that E = 5πT
Surface energy E = T dA -------- (Equation 1)
dA = 4πr2 -------- (where r is the radius of the liquid drop)
Substituting in Equation 1, we get
E = T * 4πr2
5πT = T* 4πr2 -------- (since E = 5πT)
