$A$ thin liquid film formed between a $U$-shaped wire and a light slider supports a weight of $1.5 \times 10^{-2} \; N$ (see figure). The length of the slider is $30 \; cm$ and its weight is negligible. The surface tension of the liquid film is (in $; N m^{-1}$)

  • A
    $0.025$
  • B
    $0.0125$
  • C
    $0.1$
  • D
    $0.05$

$n$ number of liquid drops each of radius $r$ coalesce to form a single drop of radius $R$. The energy released in the process is converted into the kinetic energy of the big drop so formed. The speed of the big drop is [$T = \text{surface tension of liquid}, \rho = \text{density of liquid}$.]

If the work done in increasing the size of a soap film from $10\, cm \times 6\, cm$ to $60\, cm \times 11\, cm$ is $2 \times 10^{-4}\, J$,what is the surface tension?
