Solution and Explanation
Top Questions on Surface Tension
Consider a water tank shown in the figure. It has one wall at \(x = L\) and can be taken to be very wide in the z direction. When filled with a liquid of surface tension \(S\) and density \( \rho \), the liquid surface makes angle \( \theta_0 \) (\( \theta_0 < < 1 \)) with the x-axis at \(x = L\). If \(y(x)\) is the height of the surface then the equation for \(y(x)\) is: (take \(g\) as the acceleration due to gravity)

- A balloon is made of a material of surface tension S and has a small outlet. It is filled with air of density \( \rho \). Initially the balloon is a sphere of radius R. When the gas is allowed to flow out slowly at a constant rate, its radius shrinks as \( r(t) \). Assume that the pressure inside the balloon is \( P(r) \) and is more than the outside pressure (\( P_0 \)) by an amount proportional to the surface tension and inversely proportional to the radius. The balloon bursts when its radius reaches \( r_0 \). Then the speed of gas coming out of the balloon at \( r = R \) is :
