what is cusp ?
If the two branches of the curve pass through the double point and the tangent to them are the point is real and coincident, then the double point is called cusp. Shown in the figure
angle of contact.
It is defined as the angle between the tangent to the liquid surface at the point of contact and solid surface inside the liquid is called as angle of contact The value of angle of contact depends upon (i) Nature of solid and liquid in contact (ii) Cleanliness of the surface in contact (iii) Medium above the free surface of liquid
