drop formed at the opening is spherical because that requires a minimum increase in
its surface energy. To determine the size, we calculate the net vertical force due to
the surface tension T when the radius of the drop is R. When this force becomes
smaller than the weight of the drop, the drop gets detached from the dropper..
