Consider a bowl filled with water on which some black pepper powder has been sprinkled uniformly. Now,a drop of liquid soap is added at the centre of the surface of water. The picture of the surface immediately after this will look like:

$A$ $U$-shaped wire is dipped in a soap solution and removed. The thin soap film formed between the wire and the light slider supports a weight of $1.5 \times 10^{-2} \; N$ (which includes the small weight of the slider). The length of the slider is $30 \; cm$. What is the surface tension of the film?

The force required to take away a flat circular plate of radius $2 \, cm$ from the surface of water will be (the surface tension of water is $70 \, dyne/cm$).

$n$ 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 [$T = \text{surface tension of liquid}, \rho = \text{density of liquid}$.]

The work done in increasing the size of a soap film from $10 \, cm \times 6 \, cm$ to $10 \, cm \times 11 \, cm$ is $3 \times 10^{-4} \, J$. The surface tension of the film is:
