AI Generated Solution

To find the minimum length of the wire so that it does not break the surface film of water, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Forces Involved**: The wire experiences an upward force due to surface tension. The total upward force acting on the wire is given by the formula: \[ F = 2 \times T \times L ...
