Water drops on a leaf Water drops falling from a tap. A drop or droplet is a small column of liquid, bounded completely or almost completely by free surfaces.A drop may form when liquid accumulates at the end of a tube or other surface boundary, producing a hanging drop called a pendant drop.
Water on the surface of a lotus leaf. Water droplets on taro leaf with lotus effect (upper), and taro leaf surface magnified (0–1 is one millimetre span) showing a number of small protrusions (lower). Computer graphic of a lotus leaf surface. A water drop on a lotus surface showing contact angles of approximately 147°.
Across a series of 10 large-scale paintings, artist Calida Rawles captures the movement of women and girls suspended in water in her exhibition “A Certain Oblivion.” The painter submerging ...

A drop on a lotus surface, with a contact angle of greater than 146°. A water droplet falling onto a superhydrophobic, elastic surface. In chemistry and materials science, ultrahydrophobic (or superhydrophobic) surfaces are highly hydrophobic, i.e., extremely difficult to wet.
A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a nearly constant volume independent of pressure. It is one of the four fundamental states of matter (the others being solid, gas, and plasma), and is the only state with a definite volume but no fixed shape.
Solutions to this equation determine the shape of water drops, puddles, menisci, soap bubbles, and all other shapes determined by surface tension (such as the shape of the impressions that a water strider's feet make on the surface of a pond). The table below shows how the internal pressure of a water droplet increases with decreasing radius.
HGTV home renovation stars Jonathan and Drew Scott – best known as the Property Brothers – are fearful that Trump’s proposed tariffs could send construction costs soaring. The brothers ...
