    Question

    Water droplets are typically spherical due to which

    physical force?
    A Gravitational force Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Surface tension Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Friction force Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Strong Nuclear force Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Surface tension is responsible for the spherical shape of water droplets, as it minimizes surface area to reduce potential energy. While gravity and other forces act on the droplet, it is surface tension that primarily shapes it.
