This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Surface tension of water S= 7.28*10-2 Nm-1
Vapour pressure p= 2.33*103 Pa
The drop will evaporate, if the water pressure is greater than the vapour pressure.
Let a water droplet or radius R can be formed without evaporating.
Vapour pressure= Excess pressure in drop.
P=2S/R
R= 2S/P=

When a big drop of radius R, breaks into N droplets each of radius r, the volume remains constant.
Volume of big drop = N volume of each small drop
R3 =Nr3
N=R3/r3
Now change in surface area = 4 -N4 r2
= 4
Energy released = T = S
Due to releasing of this energy , the temperature is lowered.
If is the density and s is specific heat of liquid and its temperature is lowered by , then energy released = ms
T ( )=

Consider the diagram
Radii of mercury droplets r1=0.1cm = 1
r2=0.2cm=2

Surface tension T= 435.5 * 10-3 Nm-1
Let the radius of the big drop formed by collapsing be R
Therefore,
volume of big drop = volume of small droplets
4/3 R3=4/3 4/3
R3=
= 0.13+0.23
= 0.001+0.008
=0.009
R= 0.21 cm = 2.1
Change in surface area = 4
=4
Energy released =T
= T
= 435.5 2-(1 )
= 435.5
= -32.23
Therefore -3.22 energy will be absorbed.

Consider the diagram where a tanker is accelerating with acceleration a.

Consider an elementary particle of the fluid of mass dm.
The acting forces on the particle with respect to the tanker are shown above.
Now, balancing forces (as the particle is in equilibrium) along the inclined direction
component of weight= component of pseudo force dmg sin =dma cos (we have assumed that the surface is inclined at an angle q) where, dma is pseudo force
g sin =acos
a=g tan
tan = a/g = slope

Given radius r= 2.5
Surface tension S= 7.28
Angle of contact = 00
The maximum height to which SAP can rise in trees through capillarity action is given by
h = where S = surface tension, = density, r= radius
h=
This is the maximum height to which the SAP can rise due to surface tension. Since, many trees have heights much more than this, capillary action alone cannot account for the rise of water in all trees.

Consider the diagram.
Let the density of water be and a cubical block of ice of side L be floating in water with x of its height L submerged in water.
Volume of the block V = L3
Mass of the block m = V =L3

Weight of the block = mg= L3
1st case
Volume of the water displaced by the submerged part of the block= xL2
Weight of the water displaced by the block
In floating condition, x L2
Weight of the block= Weight of the water displaced by the block
L3 = xL2
2nd case
When elevator is accelerating upward with an acceleration a, then effective acceleration
= (g+a)
Then, w

Consider the diagram,
The scale is adjusted to zero, therefore, when the block suspended to a spring is immersed
In water, then the reading of the scale will be equal to the thrust on the block due to water.
Thrust= weight of water displaced
=V wg (where V is volume of the block and w is density of water)
= =

Given density of ice i = 0.917 g cm-3
Density of water 3
Let V be the total volume of iceberg and V' of its volume be submerged in water.
In floating condition
Weight of the iceberg= weight of the water displaced by the submerged part by ice
V ig = V' g

No surface tension is a scalar quantity.
Surface tension = work done/ surface area, where work done and surface area both are scalar quantities.
