Question:
Some rocks or bricks contain small air pockets in them and have a spongy structure. Assuming the air spaces form columns of an average diameter of 0.006 mm, determine how high water can rise in such a material. Take the surface tension of the air–water interface in that material to be 0.085 N/m.
Step by Step Answer:
Air spaces in certain bricks form air columns of a specified diame...View the full answer

The property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force, due to the cohesive nature of its molecules. The cohesive forces between liquid molecules are responsible for the phenomenon known as surface tension. The molecules at the surface of a glass of water do not have other water molecules on all sides of them and consequently, they cohere more strongly to those directly associated with them (in this case, next to and below them, but not above). is not really true that a \\\"skin\\\" forms on the water surface; the stronger cohesion between the water molecules as opposed to the attraction of the water molecules to the air makes it more difficult to move an object through the surface than to move it when it is completely submersed
