A water drop of radius `10^-2` m is broken into 1000 equal droplets. Calculate the gain in surface energy. Surface tension of water is `0.075Nm^-1`

Explanation

To calculate the gain in surface energy when a water drop of radius \( R = 10^{-2} \) m is broken into 1000 equal droplets, we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Calculate the volume of the original droplet
The volume \( V \) of a sphere is given by the formula:
\[ V = \frac{4}{3} \pi R^3 \]
Substituting the value of \( R \):
