Q: In a fluid, what is the term for the surface phenomenon that causes the surface to behave like a stretched elastic membrane?
Solution:
Surface tension is the property of a fluid that causes its surface to behave like a stretched elastic membrane.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that fluids can be liquids or gases.
Step 2: Recognize that the surface of a fluid has special properties.
Step 3: Learn that these properties make the surface act like a thin, stretched membrane.
Step 4: Identify the term that describes this behavior, which is 'surface tension.'
Step 5: Conclude that surface tension is the property of a fluid that causes its surface to behave like a stretched elastic membrane.
