  • SOAP FILM Una Pale
    SOAP FILM Una Pale XV gymnasium, Faculty of electrical engineering and computing, University of Zagreb, Croatia 1. Introduction When a soap film is created and placed into the electrical field it deforms. Aim of this paper is to explore and explain why the electrical field affects the soap film. It will also investigate how the parameters: electrical field (voltage), distance from charge and radius of soap film determine the shape of soap film. 2. Theory 2.1. Soap film Soap is a molecule that consists of two parts: long hydrocarbon chain and ionic end. Long hydrocarbon chain is non polar and therefore hydrophobic, while ionic end on the other side is polar and creates ion-dipole bond with water [Figure 1] It means that it is hydrophilic and soluble in water. Hydrophilic part of molecule orientates towards water molecules, while hydrophobic tends to be the furthest form water and goes to surface. This helps to visualize how the soap film looks in microscopic scale. It consists of two layers of soap separated with water layer. [Figure 2] If there is too high concentration of soap soluted in water soap molecules start to form clusters. While soap molecules are pretty compact on the surface, water molecules, ions and charges in water layer are free to move. Thickness of film is between 20 µm and 5nm. Figure 1: Soap molecule Figure 2: Soap film Since there are attractive Van der Waals forces between molecules, soap film as liquid in general tends to have the smallest surface area. Because of the E = γS where E is energy and γ is surface tension, the liquid, or in this case soap film has a resistance to change of shape because it would mean greater energy.

Queen Noor of Jordan with UWCiM students MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR Following five years of preparations, United World College in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina, was finally inaugurated with our first generation beginning in Septem- ber 2006. During its first year, United World College in Mostar has had considerable public- ity. The official opening ceremony of the College was organized on 22 May 2007 in Mostar. This exceptional event was attended and addressed by the President of United World Colleges, H.M. Queen Noor, the Chairman of the Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Minister Nikola Špirić, the Norwegian Ambassador to Bosnia and Herzegovina, H.E. Jan Braathu, the Mayor of the City of Mostar, Ljubo Bešlić, as well as many officials who contributed to the founding of this outstand- ing institution in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
