comment

  • A Tensile stress that is the amount of force normal to a spatial line region normalized to the length of the line region.

discussion

  • Surface tension has the dimension of force per unit length, or of energy per unit area. The two are equivalent—but when referring to energy per unit of area, people use the term surface energy—which is a more general term in the sense that it applies also to solids and not just liquids. Surface tension, usually represented by the symbol γ, is measured in forces per unit length. Its SI unit is newton per meter but the cgs unit of dyne per cm is also used.
