Q: What is the unit of surface tension?
Solution:
Surface tension is defined as force per unit length, hence its unit is Newton per meter (N/m).
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what surface tension is. It is a property of liquids that makes their surface behave like a stretched elastic membrane.
Step 2: Know that surface tension is caused by the forces between the molecules at the surface of a liquid.
Step 3: Realize that surface tension can be measured as the force acting along the surface of the liquid.
Step 4: Remember that force is measured in Newtons (N) and length is measured in meters (m).
Step 5: Since surface tension is force per unit length, we can express it as Newtons divided by meters.
Step 6: Therefore, the unit of surface tension is Newton per meter (N/m).
