Multiple choice surface tension physics surface energy of a liquid work done in stretching a liquid surface: surface energy of a liquid properties of matter

One thousand small water droplets of equal size combine to form a big drop. The ratio of the final surface energy to the initial surface energy is: (Surface tension of water = 70 dyne/cm) 

  1. 10:1

  2. 1000:1

  3. 1:10

  4. 1:1000
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Let the radius of smaller radius be $r$ and bigger be $R$.

Since volume remains constant, thus  $\dfrac{4\pi R^3}{3}=1000\times \dfrac{4\pi r^3}{3}$
We get  $R=10r$
Ratio of final surface energy to initial is 
$\dfrac{W _f}{W _i}=\dfrac{T\times 4\pi R^2}{T\times 1000\times 4\pi r^2}$
$\dfrac{W _f}{W _i}=\dfrac{(10r)^2}{1000r^2}=1:10$

Multiple choice surface tension physics surface energy of a liquid work done in stretching a liquid surface: surface energy of a liquid properties of matter

Two spherical soap bubbles of a radii $r _1$ and $r _2$ in vacuum coalesce under isothermal conditions. The resulting bubble has the radius $R$ such that

  1. $R=r _1+r _2$
  2. $R^2 ={ r _1^2 + r _2^2}$
  3. $R=\dfrac{r _1+r _2}{r _2}$

  4. none of these
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

When two soap bubbles coalesce in vacuum under isothermal conditions, the total number of moles of air is conserved. Since PV = nRT, and n is constant, P1V1 + P2V2 = PV. For a bubble, P = 4T/r, and V = (4/3)pi*r^3. So, (4T/r1)(4/3)pi*r1^3 + (4T/r2)(4/3)pi*r2^3 = (4T/R)*(4/3)pi*R^3. This simplifies to r1^2 + r2^2 = R^2.

What is the change in surface energy, when a mercury drop of radius $R$ splits up into $1000$ droplets of radius $r$?

  1. $8\pi R^2T$
  2. $16\pi R^2T$
  3. $24\pi R^2T$
  4. $36\pi R^2T$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Let Surface Tension be T.

Initial surface = $4\Pi { R }^{ 2 }$
Final Surface area = $1000\times 4\Pi { r }^{ 2 }$
& Initial Volume = final volume
$\dfrac { 4 }{ 3 } \Pi { R }^{ 3 }=1000\times \dfrac { 4 }{ 3 } \Pi { r }^{ 3 }$
R = 10r
So,
    Final surface area = $1000\times 4\Pi \times \dfrac { { R }^{ 2 } }{ 100 } =40\Pi { R }^{ 2 }$
So, Workdone = Change in Surface energy
                         = $T\Delta A=(40-4)\Pi { R }^{ 2 }T$
       $\boxed { Change\quad in\quad Surface\quad energy=36\Pi { r }^{ 2 }T } $.

Multiple choice physics hooke's law

Assertion (A): Steel is more elastic than rubber.
Reason (R) : Under a given deforming force, steel is deformed less than rubber.


A) Both Assertion and Reason are true and the reason is correct explanation of the assertion
B)Both Assertion and Reason are true, but reason is not correct explanation of the assertion
C) Assertion is true, but the reason is false
D) Assertion is false, but the reason is true

  1. A

  2. B

  3. C

  4. D
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

More elastic the material, higher the Young's Modulus.
Young's Modulus of Steel = 200 GPa
Young's Modulus of Rubber = 0.01-0.1 GPa
Young's Modulus of Steel is much higher than Rubber, So steel is more elastic than rubber.

Y = FL/Al
Y - Young's Modulus
L - Actual Length
A - Cross Section Area
l - Elongation

l = FL/AY
keeping F,L,A constant 
l is inversely proportional to Y
Hence, Higher the Young's Modulus lesser the deformation (for Different Materials)

Multiple choice physics hooke's law

Change in the shape of a body caused by the application of a force (stress) is called as :

  1. ductility

  2. deformation

  3. hardness

  4. rigidity
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

If a force on a body changes the normal positions of the molecules of a body, resulting in a change in the configuration of the body, then the force applied is called deforming force and change in shape of the body is called deformation. 

Multiple choice physics hooke's law

Change in shape of a body caused by the application of stress is called:

  1. rigidity

  2. elasticity

  3. sheer

  4. deformation
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Deformation of a body is the change in shape of a body caused by the application of stress. According to the Hooke's law, the deformation caused in an elastic material is directly proportional to the stress applied to it.

A Correct answer
Explanation

Cranes and other heavy machinery need to be rested to prevent overheating and mechanical fatigue, making the statement true.

Multiple choice physics hooke's law

State whether true or false :
The property of an elastic body by virtue of which its behaviour becomes less elastic under the action of repeated alternating deforming force is called elastic fatigue

  1. True

  2. False
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Elastic fatigue is defined as the temporary loss of elastic properties of a material by applying repeated force on the material. If there is no sufficient time between repeated force application, then a permanent deformation remain there in each time of applying force.
