A thread is tied slightly loose to a wire frame as in figure and the frame is dipped into a soap solution and taken out . The frame is comletely covered with the film. When the portion `A` puntured with a pin The thread.

A

Becomes concave toward A

B

Becomes convex towards A

C

Remains in the initial position

D

Either (a) or (b) depending on the size of A w.r.t. B

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Because film tries to cover minimum surface area.
