State the CGS and SI unit of surface tension.

By User

We know that,

Surface Tension = force/length
So, SI unit = N/m=Kg/s^2

CGS unit = g/s^2

Final Answer: Hence, SI unit = N/m=Kg/s^2 and CGS unit is g/s^2

(b) Water on a clean glass surface tends to spread out while mercury on the same surface tends to form drops. (Put differently, water wets glass while mercury does not). (c) Surface tension of a liquid is independent of the area of the surface. (d) Water with detergent dissolved in it should have small angles of contact. (e) A drop of liquid under no external forces is always spherical in shape.
