5.Assuming the surface tension of water is .073 N/m, what is the force required to overcome the surface tension?
To calculate the force required to overcome the surface tension, we need to multiply the surface tension value with the length over which the force is applied. In the case of surface tension, the force is acting along the circumference of the liquid surface.
Formula:
Force = surface tension * length
Given:
Surface tension of water = 0.073 N/m
To find the force, we need the length over which the force is applied. However, this information is not provided in the question. Without the length, we cannot calculate the force required to overcome the surface tension accurately.
If you have the length over which the force is applied, substitute that value into the formula and multiply it by the surface tension to find the force required.
