Solution

The correct option is D $576 d y n e s$
Surface tension will act along perimeter

and thickness

Total length where surface tension will act = L

$\begin{matrix} L = 4 \times (7) + 4 (0.2) L = & 28.8 c m \end{matrix}$

Force $(F) = σ L =$

where $T = 20$ dynes/cm

$∴ F = 20 (28.8) = 576$ dynes
