Total Weight of Plate using Wilhelmy-Plate Method Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Total Weight of Solid Surface = Weight of Plate+Surface Tension of Fluid*(Perimeter)-Upward Drift
W_tot = W_plate+γ*(P)-U_drift
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Total Weight of Solid Surface - (Measured in Newton) - Total Weight of Solid Surface is a measure of the force of gravity pulling down on a solid surface.
Weight of Plate - (Measured in Kilogram) - The Weight of Plate is defined as the force of attraction exerted on the plate by gravity.
Surface Tension of Fluid - (Measured in Newton per Meter) - Surface Tension of Fluid is the energy or work required to increase the surface area of a fluid due to intermolecular forces.
Perimeter - (Measured in Meter) - The perimeter of a figure is the total distance around the edge of the figure.
Upward Drift - (Measured in Newton per Meter) - Upward Drift is the movement of force in an upward direction.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Weight of Plate: 16.9 Gram --> 0.0169 Kilogram (Check conversion here)
Surface Tension of Fluid: 73 Millinewton per Meter --> 0.073 Newton per Meter (Check conversion here)
Perimeter: 250 Millimeter --> 0.25 Meter (Check conversion here)
Upward Drift: 15 Millinewton per Meter --> 0.015 Newton per Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_tot = W_plate+γ*(P)-U_drift --> 0.0169+0.073*(0.25)-0.015

Evaluating ... ...

W_tot = 0.02015

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.02015 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.02015 Newton <-- Total Weight of Solid Surface
