The figure shows a soap film in which a closed elastic thread is lying. The film inside the thread is pricked. Now the sliding wire is moved out so that the surface area increases. The radius circle of the circle formed by elastic thread will

A

increase

B

decrease

C

remains same

D

data insufficient

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The force exerted by film on wire or thread depends only on the nature of material of the film and not on its surface area. Hence the radius of circle formed by elastic thread dows not change.

A wire forming a loop is dipped into soap solution and taken out so that a film of soap solution is formed. A loop of 6.28 cm long thread is gently put on the film and the film is pricked with a needle inside the loop. The thread loop takes the shape of a circle. Find the tension in the thread. Surface tension of soap solution =0.030Nm^-1 .

There are some experiment in which the outcomes cannot be identified discretely. For example, an ellipse of eccentricity 2sqrt(2)//3 is inscribed in a circle and a point within the circle is chosen at random. Now, we want to find the probability that this point lies outside the ellipse. Then, the point must lie in the shaded region shown in Figure. Let the radius of the circle be a and length of minor axis of the ellipse be 2b. Given that 1 - (b^(2))/(a^(2)) = (8)/(9) or (b^(2))/(a^(2)) = (1)/(9) Then, the area of circle serves as sample space and area of the shaded region represents the area for favorable cases. Then, required probability is p= ("Area of shaded region")/("Area of circle") =(pia^(2) - piab)/(pia^(2)) = 1 - (b)/(a) = 1 - (1)/(3) = (2)/(3) Now, answer the following questions. A point is selected at random inside a circle. The probability that the point is closer to the center of the circle than to its circumference is

There is a horizontal film of soap solution. On it a thread is placed in the form of a loop. The film is punctured inside the loop and the thread becomes a circular loop of radius R . If the surface tension of the soap solution be T , then the tension in the thread will be :

A film of soap solution is formed on a loop frame loop of 6.28 cm long thread is gently put on the film and the film is broken with a needle inside the loop. The tread loop takes the shape of a circle. Find the tension in the thread. Surface tension of soap solution = 0.030 n//m .

Figure shows a spool with thread wound on it placed on a smooth plane inclined at angle from horizontal. The spool has mass m, edge radius R , and is wound up to a radius r. its moment of inertia about its own axis is I . The free end of the thread is attached as shown in the figure. So that the thread is parallel to the inclined plane. T is the tension in the thread. Which of the following is correct?
