Капка Капката е много малка частица от течност, която има закръглена, сферична форма. Съдържание Образуване[редактиране | edit source] Най-простият начин за образуване на капка е бавно стичане на течност от долния край на вертикална тръбичка с малък диаметър. Когато висящата капка превиши определен размер, тя се откъсва и пада. Капки могат да се образуват от кондензация на преохладена пара или атомизация на по-голямо количество течност. Тежестта на най-голямата капка която може да виси от края на тръбичка с радиус „a“ е приблизително - mg=2πaλ cos a където λ е повърхностното напрежение на течността, а a е ъгълът на контакт с тръбичката. Това равенство е основа на практичен метод за измерване на повърхностното напрежение. Форма[редактиране | edit source] Естествената сферична форма на капката се наблюдава при безтегловност или при свободно падане във вакуум. Под действието на гравитацията се получава деформация, ако движението на капката е възпрепятствано от твърдо тяло или друга течност с по-голяма плътност. При свободно падане, с увеличаване на скоростта, съпротивлението на въздуха (или на друг флуид) нараства и формата става все по-удължена и заострена в горния край. Такава форма се нарича капковидна, има добри аеродинамични свойства и не позволява образуването на турбуленция. Точната зависимост между скоростта на движение и формата е функция от вискозитета на течността и плътността на флуида в който се движи. Оптика[редактиране | edit source] Поради различния коефициент на пречупване на водата и въздуха, пречупването и отразяването на светлината по повърхността на дъждовните капки водят до образуването на дъга. Етимология[редактиране | edit source] Думата капка е ономатопея, т.е. е образувана по звукоподражателен път, тъй като когато пада на различни повърхности, се чува звук, подобен на „кап“.

Drop (liquid) A drop or droplet is a small column of liquid, bounded completely or almost completely by free surfaces. A drop may form when liquid accumulates at the lower end of a tube or other surface boundary, producing a hanging drop called a pendant drop. Drops may also be formed by the condensation of a vapor or by atomization of a larger mass of liquid. Contents Surface tension[edit] Liquid forms drops because the liquid exhibits surface tension. A simple way to form a drop is to allow liquid to flow slowly from the lower end of a vertical tube of small diameter. The surface tension of the liquid causes the liquid to hang from the tube, forming a pendant. When the drop exceeds a certain size it is no longer stable and detaches itself. The falling liquid is also a drop held together by surface tension. Pendant drop test[edit] In the pendant drop test, a drop of liquid is suspended from the end of a tube by surface tension. The force due to surface tension is proportional to the length of the boundary between the liquid and the tube, with the proportionality constant usually denoted .[1] Since the length of this boundary is the circumference of the tube, the force due to surface tension is given by where d is the tube diameter. The mass m of the drop hanging from the end of the tube can be found by equating the force due to gravity () with the component of the surface tension in the vertical direction () giving the formula where a is the angle of contact with the tube, and g is the acceleration due to gravity. The limit of this formula, as a goes to 90°, gives the maximum weight of a pendant drop for a liquid with a given surface tension, . This relationship is the basis of a convenient method of measuring surface tension, commonly used in the petroleum industry. More sophisticated methods are available when the surface tension is unknown that consider the developing shape of the pendant as the drop grows.[2] [3] In medicine, droppers have a standardized diameter, in such a way that 1 millilitre is equivalent to 20 drops. And, for the cases when smaller amounts are necessary, microdroppers are used, in which, 1 millilitre = 60 microdrops. Drop adhesion to a solid[edit] The drop adhesion to a solid can be divided to two categories: lateral adhesion and normal adhesion. Lateral adhesion resembles friction (though tribologically lateral adhesion is a more accurate term) and refers to the force required to slide a drop on the surface, namely the force to detach the drop from its position on the surface only to translate it to another position on the surface. Normal adhesion is the adhesion required to detach a drop from the surface in the normal direction, namely the force to cause the drop to fly off from the surface. The measurement of both adhesion forms can be done with the Centrifugal Adhesion Balance (CAB). The CAB uses a combination of centrifugal and gravitational forces to obtain any ratio of lateral and normal forces. For example it can apply a normal force at zero lateral force for the drop to fly off away from the surface in the normal direction or it can induce a lateral force at zero normal force (simulating zero gravity). Droplet[edit] The term droplet is a diminutive form of 'drop' - and as a guide is typically used for liquid particles of less than 500 µm diameter. In spray application, droplets are usually described by their perceived size (i.e., diameter) whereas the dose (or number of infective particles in the case of biopesticides) is a function of their volume. This increases by a cubic function relative to diameter; thus a 50 µm droplet represents a dose in 65 pl and a 500 µm drop represents a dose in 65 nanolitres. Speed[edit] A droplet with a diameter of 3 mm has a terminal velocity of approximately 8 m/s.[4] Drops smaller than 1 mm in diameter will attain 95% of their terminal velocity within 2 m. But above this size the distance to get to terminal velocity increases sharply. An example is a drop with a diameter of 2 mm that may achieve this at 5.6 m.[4] Optics[edit] Due to the different refractive index of water and air, refraction and reflection occur on the surfaces of raindrops, leading to rainbow formation. Sound[edit] The major source of sound when a droplet hits a liquid surface is the resonance of excited bubbles trapped underwater. These oscillating bubbles are responsible for most liquid sounds, such as running water or splashes, as they actually consist of many drop-liquid collisions.[5][6] Shape[edit] The classic shape associated with a drop (with a pointy end in its upper side) comes from the observation of a droplet clinging to a surface. The shape of a drop falling through a gas is actually more or less spherical. Larger drops tend to be flatter on the bottom part due to the pressure of the gas they move through.[7] Size[edit] Scientists traditionally thought that the variation in the size of raindrops was due to collisions on the way down to the ground. In 2009 French researchers succeeded in showing that the distribution of sizes is due to the drops' interaction with air, which deforms larger drops and causes them to fragment into smaller drops, effectively limiting the largest raindrops to about 6 mm diameter.[8] Gallery[edit] A drop of water hitting a wet metal surface and ejecting more droplets, which become water globules and skim across the surface of the water.
