Splitting & Merging of Drops

A liquid drop having surface energy ' EE ' is spread into 512 droplets of same size. The final surface energy of the droplets is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. Splitting into nn equal droplets: Ef=n1/3EE_f = n^{1/3}E.
  2. Ef=(512)1/3E=8EE_f = (512)^{1/3}E = 8E
  3. So the answer is (c) 8 E.
