NEET UG PHYSICS MCQ: MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF FLUIDS

1 Easy
1 of 1
Application +4 | -1
A needle of length 5 cm is floating on water of surface tension 0.07 Jm−20.07\,J{m^{ - 2}} and is not wetted by water. Then the weight of the needle will be (take g=10 m/s2g = 10\,m/{s^2})
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
0.7×10−3 kg wt0.7 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,kg\,wt
Option B (0.7×10−3 kg wt0.7 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,kg\,wt) is correct because the weight of the needle is balanced by the force due to surface tension acting on both sides of the needle.
