A drop of liquid of radiusR=10-2mhaving surface tensionS=0.14πNm-1divides itself into K identical drops. In the process the total change in the surface energyΔU=10-3J. IfK=10αthen the value ofαis

Answer:
6
Solution:

By mass conservation, ρ .43 πR3=ρ.K.43πr3

    R=K13 r

     ΔU=T ΔA=T K. 4πr2-4πR2

=T K. 4πR2K-23-4πR2

ΔU=4πR2T K13-1

Putting the value’s      10-3=10-14π×4π×10-4K13-1

100=K13-1

    K13 100=102

Given that  K=10α       10α3=102

   α3=2

     α=6
