How to Calculate Force given Surface Tension using Wilhelmy-Plate Method?
Force given Surface Tension using Wilhelmy-Plate Method calculator uses Force = (Density of Plate*[g]*(Length of Plate*Width of Full Size Bearing Plate*Thickness of Plate))+(2*Surface Tension of Fluid*(Thickness of Plate+Width of Full Size Bearing Plate)*(cos(Contact Angle)))-(Density of Fluid*[g]*Thickness of Plate*Width of Full Size Bearing Plate*Depth of Plate) to calculate the Force, The Force given Surface Tension using Wilhelmy-Plate Method formula is the net downward force which is expressed in dimensions of rectangular plate i.e., Lp and Wp and material density ρ, depth hp in a liquid of density ρL. Force is denoted by F symbol.
How to calculate Force given Surface Tension using Wilhelmy-Plate Method using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Force given Surface Tension using Wilhelmy-Plate Method, enter Density of Plate (ρp), Length of Plate (L), Width of Full Size Bearing Plate (B), Thickness of Plate (t), Surface Tension of Fluid (γ), Contact Angle (θ), Density of Fluid (ρfluid) & Depth of Plate (hp) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Force given Surface Tension using Wilhelmy-Plate Method calculation can be explained with given input values -> 4.2E+9 = (12.2*[g]*(0.05*0.2*5))+(2*0.073*(5+0.2)*(cos(0.263544717051094)))-(14.9*[g]*5*0.2*0.0121).
