Surface tension = F/L                               = N/m Si unit of force Newton Si unit of length Meter Length= where force acted SI unit of surface tension is (Newton per meter) Here are some key points about the SI unit for surface tension: The SI unit for surface tension is millinewtons per meter, commonly written as mN/m. This unit is part of the International System of Units (SI), the modern metric system used universally in science, industry and trade. The millinewton per meter is the standard unit for surface tension preferred by the SI system. It is widely used in physics, chemistry, engineering and other technical fields. The millinewton measures force, while per meter indicates force exerted per unit length. Together they quantify surface tension, which is force tangential to a liquid's surface. Using SI units like m N/m helps standardize the measurement of surface tension across different sciences and countries. It enables precise comparison of surfa...

Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to behave as stretched membranes due to the cohesive forces between molecules. It causes phenomena like water striders walking on water. Si unit of surface tension The SI (International System of Units) unit of surface tension is Newton per meter (N/m) . Surface tension is a measure of the force per unit length acting perpendicular to a line on the liquid surface. In terms of units, it is expressed as the force (measured in Newtons) divided by the length (measured in meters). Therefore, the SI unit of surface tension is N/m . CGS unit of surface tension The cgs unit of surface  tension is dynes per centimeter (dyn/cm) . Not an SI unit but commonly used historically. Defined as 1 dyn/cm = 0.001 N/m. erg/cm 2 Surface tension may be given in ergs per square centimeter (erg/cm^2). Related to dyn/cm: 1 erg/cm 2 = 1 dyn/cm Converts to other units as: 1 erg/cm 2 = 0.001 mN/m mN/m Surface tension is often given in millinewtons per meter ...
