A liquid drop acquires spherical shape due to:
A liquid drop acquires a spherical shape due to surface tension.
Surface tension is the property of a liquid that allows its surface to act like a thin elastic film, minimizing the surface area. For a given volume, a sphere has the smallest surface area, so liquid drops naturally tend to form spheres to minimize that surface area.
The temperature at which the molar specific volumes for liquid and vapor phases become equal is termed as:
A liquid drop acquires spherical shape due to:
The diameter of a capillary is 4mm. If Reynolds's number of the tube is 1000 and the co-efficient of viscosity for the water is 0.02 poise, determine the maximum speed of water for the stream line flow in the tube?
