$A$ thin metal disc of radius $r$ floats on water surface and bends the surface downwards along the perimeter,making an angle $\theta$ with the vertical edge of the disc. If the weight of water displaced by the disc is $W$,the weight of the metal disc is [$T =$ surface tension of water].

In most liquids,with a rise in temperature,the surface tension of a liquid

Water is filled up to a height $h$ in a beaker of radius $R$ as shown in the figure. The density of water is $\rho$,the surface tension of water is $T$ and the atmospheric pressure is $P_0$. Consider a vertical section $ABCD$ of the water column through a diameter of the beaker. The force on water on one side of this section by water on the other side of this section has magnitude

$A$ needle is $7 \ cm$ long. Assuming that the needle is not wetted by water,what is the weight of the needle,so that it floats on water (in $g \ wt$)? $\left[T = \text{surface tension of water} = 70 \ dyne/cm\right]$ [acceleration due to gravity $= 980 \ cm \ s^{-2}$]

Is surface tension a vector or scalar? Explain.
