Q. 173. A mercury drop shaped as a round tablet of radius R and thickness h is located between two horizontal glass plates. Assuming that h ≪ R , find the mass m of a weight which has to be placed on the upper plate to diminish the distance between the plates n-times. The contact angle equals θ. Calculate m if R = 2.0 cm, h = 0.38 mm, n = 2.0, and θ = 135°. 

Solution. 173. We must first calculate the pressure difference inside the film from that outside. This is

Irodov Solutions: Liquids Capillary Effects - 2 - JEE

We should put h / n for h because the tablet is com presed n times. Then since Hg is nearly, in com pressible,  Irodov Solutions: Liquids Capillary Effects - 2 - JEE

Irodov Solutions: Liquids Capillary Effects - 2 - JEE

Part of the force is needed to keep the Hg in the shape of a table rather than in the shape of infinitely thin sheet. This part can be calculated being putting n = 1 above. Thus

Q. 176. Two vertical parallel glass plates are partially submerged in water. The distance between the plates is d = 0.10 mm, and their width is l = 12 cm. Assuming that the water between the plates does not reach the upper edges of the plates and that the wetting is complete, find the force of their mutual attraction. 

Solution. 176. The energy of the liquid between the plates is

This energy is minimum when,  Irodov Solutions: Liquids Capillary Effects - 2 - JEE the minimum potential energy is the  Irodov Solutions: Liquids Capillary Effects - 2 - JEE

The force of attraction between the plates can be obtained fro m this as

or  Irodov Solutions: Liquids Capillary Effects - 2 - JEE

and minus sign is needed becaue we are calculating work done on the system. Thus since pV remains constants, the work done is

Q. 182. A soap bubble of radius r is inflated with an ideal gas. The atmospheric pressure is p0, the surface tension of the soap water solution is α.
