What do you call the point below the earths surface where the rock breaks under stress and tension?
fre
Why does liquid fall as drops?
Liquid falls as drops due to surface tension, which causes the liquid to form into rounded shapes to minimize surface area. When a liquid stream is disrupted, it breaks into droplets to achieve this stable rounded shape.
How can you test how much weight the surface tension of water can hold?
Small insects such can walk on water because their weight is not enough to penetrate the surface. A carefully placed small needle can be made to float on the surface of water even though it is several times as dense as water. If the surface is agitated to break up the surface tension, needle will quickly sink.
What is surface tension coefficient?
Surface tension coefficient, also known as surface tension, is the force acting on the surface of a liquid that causes it to behave like a stretched elastic membrane. It is a measure of the strength of the attractive forces between molecules at the surface of a liquid. The higher the surface tension, the more difficult it is to break the surface of the liquid.
What is surface tension in hydrocarbons?
Each liquid hydrocarbon has a different surface tension.
Why does dawn dish soap repel pepper?
Soap breaks the surface tension of water. Pepper will only float where there is strong surface tension.
Can you explain the soap and pepper experiment and its significance in demonstrating surface tension?
The soap and pepper experiment demonstrates surface tension by showing how soap disrupts the surface tension of water. When pepper is sprinkled on water, it floats due to surface tension. Adding soap breaks the surface tension, causing the pepper to move away from the soap. This experiment helps illustrate how surface tension works and how it can be affected by different substances.
What is a force applied to a confined fluid?
Surface Tension happens

What happens to the surface tension of a liquid when it is heated?
As a liquid is heated, its surface tension typically decreases. This is because the increased thermal energy disrupts the intermolecular forces at the surface of the liquid, causing the molecules to spread out and reducing the cohesive forces that create surface tension.
What happens to the surface area of rock as it breaks apart?
Fracturing increases the surface area of a rock exposed to weathering.
Name of surfactant that breaks surface tension in the lungs?
Am pretty sure its called the pulmonary surfactant that's produced from the lungs
How does soap effects the surface tension if water?
the surface tension has bonds, and the soap breaks those bonds, so if the soap water is put onto a surface.. it will slip off
Why does surface tension happens?
It Occurs when you have particles that rotate in an ANTI-Clockwise direction and spin in an axis.
Why a tin lid floats in a bowl of water but when it is crushed into a ball it sinks?
The surface tension of the water stops it from breaking the surface so long as it does not cut through it. The irregular shape and weight of a metal ball made from the same thing cuts the surface tension and breaks the electronic bond that exists between the water molecules at the surface.
What happens when detergent is added to the floating object in the water?
When detergent is added to a floating object in water, it can break the surface tension of the water causing the object to sink. This happens because the detergent molecules disrupt the cohesive forces that keep the object floating by reducing the surface tension of the water.
What is the effect of sodium chloride on the surface tension of water?
The surface tension of water is increased for salted water.Sodium chloride increase the surface tension of water.
