11th Physics Online Notes -Surface Tension

Class 11 Physics
Surface tension = force / length
= F/L
= work done / change in area
Its SI unit is Nm-1 or Jm-1 and its dimensional formula is [MT-2].
It is a scalar quantity. Surface tension is a molecular phenomenon which due to cohesive force and the root cause of the force is electrical in nature. Surface tension of the liquid depends upon the nature of the liquid and independent of the surface area of the film or length of the line. Small liquid drops are spherical due to the property of surface tension.
Surface tension of a bubble
 The tendency to minimize that wall tension pulls the bubbles into spherical shapes. Even though the soap film has less surface tension than pure water, which would pull itself into tiny droplets, it is nevertheless strong to be able to maintain the bubble with such a small thickness.

Why is Hindi Day celebrated on 14 September?

Why is Hindi Day celebrated on 14 September? After independence, the Government of India set a goal to give an ideal form to the mother tongue of the country and set a target for grammar and orthography using the Devanagari script to bring standardization in writing. Subsequently, on September 14, 1949, the Constituent Assembly decided by a vote that Hindi would be the official language of India. To propagate the importance of this decision and to spread Hindi in every region, India is celebrating Hindi Day every year from 1953 to 14 September, at the request of Rashtrabhasha Prachar Samiti, Wardha. Apart from this, 14 September is also the birthday of Rajendra Singh, who worked tirelessly to make Hindi the official language of India. Hindi Day is observed every year on 14 September to mark the importance of the Hindi language in the country. The Hindi language is one of the oldest languages, which derives most of its academic vocabulary from the Sanskrit language written in the Deva

Magnetic and non-magnetic material Class 6 Science

Magnetic and non-magnetic material  Class 6 Science A magnet is a substance that is drawn to certain magnetic materials like iron, cobalt, and nickel. Magnets have the ability to draw iron to them. Natural magnets are rocks that naturally draw iron. Non-magnetic materials include things like wood, rubber, coins, feathers, leather, etc. that are not drawn to iron. Magnet characteristics It pulls magnetic materials, such as iron. The magnet's two ends are referred to as its poles. The magnet's diametrically opposed poles are drawn together. Heating, hammering, or dropping causes it to lose its characteristics. On the basis of properties types of Magnets Temporary magnets are those magnets that are magnetic for only a little duration. Typically, iron, cobalt, or nickel are used to make them. When they are close to the powerful magnet, they act like a magnet. When they are yanked away from the powerful magnet, they stop being magnetic. Permanent magnets are magnets that have magne
