- Why two or more mercury drops form a single drop when brought in contact with each other? A spherical shape has the minimum surface area-to-volume ratio of all geometric forms. When two drops of a liquid are brought in contact, th... 1
- What is an incompressible fluid? A fluid which does not undergo change in volume for a large range of pressures. Thus, its density remains constant throughout the fluid for... 1
- Why is a low density liquid used as a manometric liquid in a physics laboratory? An open tube manometer measures the gauge pressure, p = p0 + hρg, where p is the pressure being measured, p0 is the atmospheric pressure, h... 1
- What is the basis of the Bernoulli's principle? Conservation of energy is the basis of the Bernoulli’s principle Bernoulli’s equation states that the work done per unit volume of a fluid b... 1
- How much amount of work is done in forming a soap bubble of radius r? Let T be the surface tension of a soap solution. The initial surface area of soap bubble = 0 The final surface area of soap bubble = 2 × 4πr... 1
- Why is the surface tension of paints and lubricating oils kept low? For better wettability (surface coverage), the surface tension and angle of contact of paints and lubricating oil must be low. 1
