Question

meaning surface tension​

Answer 1

the tension of the surface film of a liquid caused by the attraction of the particles in the surface layer by the bulk of the liquid, which tends to minimize surface area.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Surface tension :

It is the property by virtue of which the free surface of liquid at rest behaves like an elastic stretched membrane tending to contract so as to occupy minimum surface area.

Surface Tension = Force / Length

SI Unit is Newton / meter.

CGS unit is Dyne / Cm.

Dimension of surface Tension:

M L T^-2 / L. = [ M T^-² ]
