Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A water droplet has a radius of 2 mm. Calculate the surface tension force acting on the droplet if the liquid's surface tension is 0.072 N/m. Use the formula f = surface_tension * circumference.

💡 Hint: Don't forget to calculate the circumference first!

Question 2

If the surface tension of mercury is 0.485 N/m, what is the pressure difference across a mercury drop with a radius of 5 mm?

💡 Hint: Use the surface tension relation formula.
