A drop of water placed between two parallel glass plates which are then pressed together unil the water film is 0.01 cm thick. If the area of water in contact with either plate is 10 cm^2 , then the force due to surface tension drawing the plates together is (S.T. of water is 75 dyne/ cm)

A capillary tube with very thin walls is attached to the beam of a balance which is then equalized. The lower end of the capillry is brought in contact with the surface of water after which an additional load of P = 0.135 gm force is needed to regain equilibrium. If the radius of the capillary is (lambda)/(10)cm then find lambda The surface tension of water is 70 "dyne"//"cm" . (g = 9.8 m//s^(2))
