Two vertical plates submerged partially ...

Two vertical plates submerged partially in a wetting liquid form a wedge with a very small angle `delta varphi`. The edge of this wedge is vertical. The density of the liquid is `rho`, its surface tension is `alpha`, the contact angle is `theta`. Find the height `h`, to which the liquid rises, as a function of the distance `x` from the edge.

A

`(2T)/(rho gx(deltatheta))`

B

`(2T)/(rho gx)`

C

`(2T(deltatheta))/(rho gx)`

D

`(T)/(rho gx(deltatheta))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

From force equilibrium `2T(dx)=rho x(delta theta)dx h.g`
