23. For slender droplets, (Equation presented) with (Equation presented) and (Equation presented) follows from (Equation presented).

The transversality condition that puts the variable endpoint on the line (Equation presented) reads (Equation presented), where (Equation presented) is the integrand of Eq. (1). After some algebra, this reduces to (Equation presented) as a suitable boundary condition. Note that this is the only entry point for the Young angle into the calculation.

28. At the critical point, the following expressions hold simultaneously: for the front (Equation presented), and the back (Equation presented). Here, (Equation presented) and (Equation presented). Solving for (Equation presented) and (Equation presented) yields (Equation presented).

32. For slender droplets, the change of (Equation presented) and (Equation presented) with tiltis almost antisymmetric: (Equation presented) up to (Equation presented) and (Equation presented). A droplet that initially has (Equation presented) hence advances to the critical point with negligible change in (Equation presented). For nonslender droplets, we find the same conclusion by numerical integration of Eq. (2).
