Answer to Question #148771 in Mechanics | Relativity for Sneha

Question

What is dimension of surface tension.

Answer 1

The formula of surface tension is

$S=\dfrac{F}{l}$

where $F=$ Force

$l=$ length

So Dimmension of surface tensin,=$\dfrac{MLT^{-2}}{L}=MT^{-2}$

Hence , Dimmension of surface tension is $MT^{-2}$
