MATLAB: Write a function to implement the following algorithm. It should ask the user to input R and SG and output the value of .
Summary of the Problem Statement: The maximum radius a falling liquid drop can have without breaking apart is given by the equation: R= sqrt /gp where is the liquid surface tension, g is the acceleration due to gravity and p is the density of the liquid. Use this expression to determine the surface tension () in units of joules per meter squared (1/m^2)
As a test case, consider the maximum radius of a drop is 0.25 inches [in] and the specific gravity of the liquid is 0.79.
Known/Input: Radius R [in] , Specific Gravity (SG) [-]
Unknown/Output: Surface Tension () [J]
Other Variabels: Density of the liquid (p) [kg/m^3) = (SG) (pwater)
Assumptions: On Earth, gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^2 ; Density water (pwater) = 1000 kg/m^3 ; R= sqrt /gp so = R^2 gp
