Question: Which of the following phenomena is NOT related to surface tension?

Options:

  1. Capillary action
  2. Formation of droplets
  3. Floating of heavy objects
  4. Meniscus formation

Correct Answer: Floating of heavy objects

Solution: 

Floating of heavy objects is not related to surface tension; it is related to buoyancy. The other phenomena are directly influenced by surface tension.

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following phenomena is NOT related to surface tension?
  • Step 1: Understand what surface tension is. Surface tension is a property of liquids that makes their surface behave like a stretched elastic sheet.
  • Step 2: Identify phenomena related to surface tension. Examples include water droplets forming beads, insects walking on water, and the ability of a paperclip to float on water.
  • Step 3: Recognize what buoyancy is. Buoyancy is the force that allows objects to float in a fluid, depending on their density compared to the fluid.
  • Step 4: Analyze the options given in the question. Determine which phenomenon does not involve surface tension.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the floating of heavy objects is not related to surface tension but to buoyancy.
