Surface Tension and Capillary Action
The second page explores yüzey gerilimi (surface tension) and kılcallık (capillarity), explaining their relationship and practical applications. These concepts are crucial for understanding many natural phenomena.
Definition: Kılcallık nedir (What is capillarity): The spontaneous rising of liquids in narrow spaces.
Example: Common yüzey gerilimi örnekleri (surface tension examples) include:
- Plant roots absorbing water
- Paper towels soaking up spills
- Sugar cubes absorbing coffee
- Oil rising in lamp wicks
Highlight: The Yüzey gerilimi ve kılcallık nedir relationship is affected by:
- Temperature (higher temperature reduces surface tension)
- Cleaning agents (reduce surface tension)
- Material properties
- Container characteristics
Vocabulary: Yüzey gerilimini etkileyen faktörler (Factors affecting surface tension):
- Temperature
- Presence of surfactants
- Material composition
- Surface characteristics
