$A$ rectangular film of liquid is expanded from $(5 \text{ cm} \times 4 \text{ cm})$ to $(7 \text{ cm} \times 8 \text{ cm})$. If the work done is $3 \times 10^{-4} \text{ J}$,the surface tension of the liquid is (nearly):

  • A
    $0.4 \text{ N/m}$
  • B
    $0.04 \text{ N/m}$
  • C
    $0.4 \text{ dyne/cm}$
  • D
    $4.0 \text{ N/m}$

$A$ drop of some liquid of volume $0.04 \ cm^{3}$ is placed on the surface of a glass slide. Then another glass slide is placed on it in such a way that the liquid forms a thin layer of area $20 \ cm^{2}$ between the surfaces of the two slides. To separate the slides a force of $16 \times 10^{5} \ dyne$ has to be applied normal to the surfaces. The surface tension of the liquid is (in $dyne \ cm^{-1}$):

The surface tension of a liquid is $70 \, dyne/cm$. In $MKS$ system its value is
