$A$ film of water is formed between two straight parallel wires of length $10 \ cm$ each,separated by $0.5 \ cm$. If their separation is increased by $1 \ cm$ while still maintaining their parallelism,how much work will have to be done? (Surface tension of water $= 7.2 \times 10^{-2} \ N/m$)

  • A
    $7.22 \times 10^{-6} \ J$
  • B
    $1.44 \times 10^{-5} \ J$
  • C
    $2.88 \times 10^{-5} \ J$
  • D
    $5.76 \times 10^{-5} \ J$
