Properties Of Matter

A spherical drop of liquid splits into 1000 identical spherical drops. If u\(_\mathrm{i}\) is the surface energy of the original drop and u\(_\mathrm{f}\) is the total surface energy of the resulting drops, the (ignoring evaporation), \({{{u_f}} \over {{u_i}}} = \left( {{{10} \over x}} \right)\). Then value of x is ____________ :
