Assume that a drop of liquid evaporates by decrease in its surface energy, so that its temperature remains unchanged. What should be the minimum radius of the drop for this to be possible ? The surfrace tension is T, density of liquid is p and L is its latent heat of vaporization. |

Answer» `sqrt(T//PL)` `PR^(2)DeltaRL=T[R^(2)-R^(2)+2RDeltaR-DeltaR^(2)]` `pR^(2)DeltaRL=T2RDeltaR`(`DeltaR` is very small) `R=(2T)/(pL)` So, correct . choice is ( c) |
