    Find the surface energy of water kept in a cylindrical vessel of radius 6.0 cm. Surface tension of water = 0.075 J m-2.
    Ans : Given:
    Radius of cylindrical vessel, r = 6.0 cm = 0.06 m
    Surface tension of water, T = 0.075 J/m2
    Area, A = πr2 = π × (0.06)2
    Surface energy = T × A
    = (0.075) × (3.14) × (0.06)2
    = 8.5 × 10-4 J
    Therefore, the surface energy of water kept in a cylindrical vessel is 8.5 × 10-4 J.
