Chapter 22, Problem 22.19E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether the smaller or larger microspheres would be better targets according to Laplace-Young equation for fusion at very high temperatures and pressures is to be stated. Whether the answer supports or detracts from the possibility of sustained fusion under the conditions of very high temperatures and pressures is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Surface tension is the tension of a liquid surface that causes due to the attraction of liquid particles in the liquid surface by the liquid particle present in the bulk of the liquid. The surface tension tries to attain a minimum surface area. The formula of surface tension is given by the expression as shown below.

γ=wΔA
