Question 6: Properties of Matter

Question

Assertion Smaller drop of water resist deformation forces better than the larger drops.
Reason Excess pressure inside drop is inversely proportional to its radius.

Accepted Answer

As excess pressure,
$$p=\frac{2 s}{R} \Rightarrow p \propto \frac{1}{R}$$
$$	herefore$$ Excess pressure inside smaller drop is large due to which smaller force resist deforming forces better.
