$A$ wooden stick of length $2 \ m$ floats on water. The surface tension of water is $0.07 \ N/m$. If a soap solution with a surface tension of $0.06 \ N/m$ is applied to one side of the stick,what will be the net force acting on it in $N$?

  • A
    $0.07$
  • B
    $0.06$
  • C
    $0.01$
  • D
    $0.02$
