Marge Piercy’s poem “Barbie Doll‚” written in 1973‚ is a powerful

Surface Tension My problem was to find out how to test or measure surface tension. I think the reason of some of the force in surface tension is cohesion and gravity. Surface Tension is the condition existing at the free surface of a liquid‚ resembling the properties of an elastic skin under tension. The tension is the result of intermolecular forces exerting an unbalanced inward pull on the individual surface molecules; this is reflected in the considerable curvature at those edges where the

After her death‚ and at the very beginning of the story‚ Bishop depicts her encounter with a doll she was also fascinated with that belonged to her Aunt Mary
