Two water droplets merge with each other to from a larger droplet. In this proces

A

Energy is liberated

B

Energy is absorbed

C

Neither liberated nor absorbed

D

Some mass is converted into energy

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
When two droplets merge with each other, their surface energy decreases.
`W = T(DeltaA) =-ve` i.e. energy is released.
