Formulas and Key Relations

1. Surface Tension and Surface Energy

T = F/l

W = T × ΔA

T = W/ΔA

T = F/l [F = force acting along the imaginary line, l = length of the line]

4. Capillarity and Capillary Rise

T = r[h+(r/3)]ρg / (2cosθ)

T ≈ rhρg / (2cosθ)

T = rhρg/2

hR = 2T/(ρg) = constant

h'R' = hR
