A soap bubble, having radius of mm, is blown from a detergent solution having a surface tension of N/m. The pressure inside the bubble equals at a point below the free surface of water in a container. Taking m/s density of water kg/m the value of is:
cm
cm
cm
cm
To solve this problem, we need to find the pressure inside the soap bubble and equate it to the pressure at a depth below the water surface.The excess pressure inside a soap bubble is given by:where is the surface tension and is the radius of the bubble.Given:N/mmmmSubstitute these values into the formula for excess pressure:N/mThe pressure at a depth in water is given by:where kg/m is the density of water and m/sEquate the excess pressure to the pressure at depth:mcmTherefore, the value of is cm which corresponds to Option 2.
