NEET Physics Surface Tension MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 11

A U-shaped wire is dipped in a soap solution and removed, forming a soap film that supports a weight of 1.5 × 10^-2 N with the length of the slider being 30 cm. What is the surface tension of the soap film?

A

0.025 N/m

B

0.050 N/m

C

0.075 N/m

D

0.150 N/m

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

Surface tension is calculated using the formula T = F/2L, where F is the force (weight supported) and L is the length of the slider. Here, T = (1.5 × 10^-2 N)/(2 × 0.30 m) = 0.050 N/m.
