| Surface tension - force applied per unit distance, i.e kg/(s*s). |

| Surface tension- force applied per unit distance so N/m. |

|
| Surface tension - force/length so N/m. |

| I think surface tension is force/area so it should be n/m. |

Surface tension = force /area.
So, Nm/m2.
=> N/m or J/m2. |

| Force per unit lenth, ie = f/l = N/M. |

| Surface tension is a force applied on the surface to the length of the surface. |

Surface tension is a force (N) acting over a surface area (A) having unit width.
So, Area= (1*m). Therefore, answer must be N/m. |

In this why the tensions are not measured in kg?
Does kg represent load? |
