PhysicsMechanical Properties of FluidsJEE Advanced 2011

Four point charges, each of +q, are rigidly fixed at the four corners of a square planar soap film of side 'a'. The surface tension of the soap film is γ. The system of charges and planar film are in equilibrium, and , where 'k' is a constant. Then N is

Answer: 3

Solution

Each charge is pushed outward by the Coulomb repulsion of the other three charges, of magnitude , and pulled inward by the surface tension of the film along its edges, (force
