How to use in-sentence of “surface tension”:
– This type of surface tension is called “interface tension”, but its physics are the same.
– Observe that in the special case of a water-silver interface where the contact angle is equal to 90°, the liquid-solid/solid-air surface tension difference is exactly zero.
– The animation shows water adhering to the faucet gaining mass until it is stretched to a point where the surface tension can no longer bind it to the faucet.
– For example, water striders use surface tension to walk on the surface of a pond.
– The same surface tension demonstration can be done with water, lime water or even saline, but only if the liquid does not adhere to the flat surface material.
– Its dissolving properties and its ability to easily break surface tension are fundamental for its uses.
– In the resulting liquid-drop model, the nucleus has an energy which arises partly from surface tension and partly from electrical repulsion of the protons.
Example sentences of “surface tension”:
- This liquid is useful for cleaning oil because dishwashing liquid reduces the surface tension of oil and, when washed with water, the oil can be washed away.
- The equation is named after Thomas Young Thomas Young, who developed the qualitative theory of surface tension in 1805, and Pierre-Simon Laplace who completed the mathematical description in the following year.
- Consequently surface tension can be also measured in SI system as joules per square meter and in the Centimetre-gram-second system of unitscgs system as ergs per cm.

– This difference is due to the phenomenon of surface tension or wall tension.
– It then separates and surface tension forms the drop into a sphere.
– The surface tension between the liquid and air is usually different its surface tension with the walls of a container.
– Contact angle of 180° occurs when the liquid-solid surface tension is exactly equal to the liquid-air surface tension.
– Because surface tension manifests itself in various effects, it offers a number of paths to its measurement.
– The thread will be pulled toward the interior of the film by a force equal to 2″ Surface tension is therefore measured in forces per unit length.
– Gravity stretches the stream, then surface tension pinches it into spheres.
– In order for the surface tension forces to cancel the force due to pressure, the surface must be curved.
