उत्तर

Given: E = 2πT 

To find: Diameter of drop (d)

Formula: E = TΔA

`Delta A = E/T`

`Delta A = (2piT)/T`

`Delta A = 2pi`      ...(i)

we know, `Delta A=4pir^2`

Substituting in equation (i)

`2pi = 4pir^2`

`4r^2 = 2`

`r^2 = 2/4`

`r^2 = 1/2`

r2 = 0.5

`r = sqrt(0.5)`

= 0.71m

∴ `d = 2r`

= 2(0.71)

d = 1.42 m

The diameter of the drop is 1.42 m.
