A thin liquid film formed between a U- shaped wire and a light slider supports
a weight of 1.5 10-2 N ( see figure) The length of the slider is 30 cm and its weight negligible. The surface tension of the liquid film is:
0.0125 Nm-1
0.1 Nm-1
0.05 Nm-1
0.025 Nm-1
The force due to the surface tension will balance the weight.
Substituting the given values, we get
