How is surface tension important in nature?
There are technological examples of the importance of surface tension. The degree to which a liquid wets a surface or forms beads depends in large part on the surface tension. Obviously, one wants one's raincoat to bead water as well as the wax on one's car. But the opposite is true for a lubricant. One wants oil to adhere to a surface of a bearing. Coatings are designed with wettabilty as a primary consideration. Cloth may be treated with materials to prevent wetting, but that is also an example where the surface texture or roughness plays a critical role. Paint is an example of a coating that would be carefully evaluated for wettability depending on the application. Surface tension of water is obviously a property of the surface and the surface of water is an interface, i.e. the place where water comes in contact with anything else. Surface tension is really a measure of how much energy is require to create a surface of a liquid. (Liquids would rather not have much surface, that is why they form drops - to minimize the surface.) The surface tension of water is large and that surface tension determines many of the properties of any interface with water and changing the surface tension changes those properties. A lot of biology happens at the interface of one compartment of water and another and the entire reason we can even have living cells is a result of the large surface tension that stabilizes a cell membrane. Finally, all those little bugs which walk around on the top of water would have no where to live without water tension.
What are some examples of surface tension?
A dog running into the ocean
What are an example of surface wave?
Water waves are examples of surface waves.
What are 5 examples of floating and sinking?
floating:empty water bottle, containers, boat with flat surface on bottom, and horse shoe yall guys lol
What are the examples of things with smooth surface?
silk, calm water, table
What are 5 examples of how water is beneficial or harmful?
examples of harmful liquids
Examples of groundwater?
Example of ground water are well, boreholes, river, lagoon and other ground surface water.
What is the examples of physical changes that occur in the Earth's surface?
Water in the ocean being evaporated
What is Surface water run off?
Surface water is the water that is available on the ground surface. Examples: river water, water in the lake, etc., there are other kinds of waters like atmospheric water in the form of moisture and ground water in the form of acquifers etc.,... Ocean water is NOT a type of surface water--basically, surface water is a drinkable water source.surface water is the water that is avaible on the ground water
What is the 5 examples of mixture?
Some examples are: sea water, air, blood, soil, petrol.
What are 5 examples of covalent compounds?
Examples are: methane, water, nitrogen dioxide, sucrose, maltose.
What are several examples of surface that changes from outside the earth helping people?
water erosion and wind erosion
How high can a dolphin jmp ot of the water?
Approx. 5 meters from the surface of the water.
What are examples of adhesion and cohesion?
cohesion: water's cohesion causes molecules on the surface of water to be drawn inward, which is why drops pf water form beads on a smooth surface. adhesion: adhesion between water and glass causes water to rise in a narrow tube against the force of gravity ice formingon the surface of water bodies in winter
