Two glass plates of area 10⁻² ~m ^2 have 10 ~cm thick water film between them. The surface tension of water is 70 10⁻³ ~N / m . The force required to separate two glass plates from each other is
Options
- A14 N
- B17 N
- C28 N
- D30 N
Correct answer
A. 14 N
Step-by-step solution
Consider complete wetting. The Laplace pressure jump is given by: aligned & P= ( h 2 ) = F A & F= A h 2 = 10⁻² 70 10⁻³ 5 10⁻² N=28 ~N aligned
