- 2. A circular ring (radius = 5.0 cm) is used to determine the surface tension of a liquid. The plane of the ring is positioned so that it is parallel to the surface of the liquid. The ring is immersed in the liquid and then pulled upward, so a film is formed between the ring and the liquid. In addition to the ring's weight, an upward force of 3.6 x 10 N is required to lift the ring to the point where it just breaks free of the surface.

The building has a height of 500 feet, the passenger has a mass of 80 kg, and the scale has a mass of 7 kg. The scale sits on the floor of the elevator.

For doing this problem it might be useful to start by drawing free-body diagrams for the passenger and the scale.Consider the vertical forces acting on the passenger and the scale WE→P: The force of the earth pulling down on the passenger (weight). WE→S: The force of the earth pulling down on the scale (weight). NP→S: The force of the passenger pushing down on the scale (normal).
