  • question_answer
    Drops of liquid of density p are floating half immersed in a liquid of density a. If the surface tension of liquid is T, the radius of the drop will be

    A) \[\sqrt{\frac{3T}{g(3\rho -\sigma )}}\]

    B) \[\sqrt{\frac{6T}{g(2\rho -\sigma )}}\]

    C) \[\sqrt{\frac{3T}{g(2\rho -\sigma )}}\]

    D) \[\sqrt{\frac{3T}{g(4\rho -3\sigma )}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] Balancing the forces acting on the drop, we get \[\frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\rho g=2\pi rT+\frac{1}{2}.\frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\sigma \Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\frac{3T}{(2\rho -\sigma )g}}\]
