प्रश्न
A spherical soap bubble A of radius 2 cm is formed inside another bubble B of radius 4 cm. Show that the radius of a single soap bubble which maintains the same pressure difference as inside the smaller and outside the larger soap bubble is lesser than the radius of both soap bubbles A and B.

उत्तर
From the excess pressure inside a soap bubble
ΔP = `(4"T")/"R"`
Here the two bubbles having the same pressure and temperature. So the radius of the combined bubbles,
`1/"R" = 1/"R"_1 + 1/"R"_2`
`1/"R" = 1/2 + 1/4 = (2 + 1)/4 = 3/4`
R = `4/3` = 1.33
∴ R = 1.33 cm

Two narrow bores of diameters 3.0 mm and 6.0 mm are joined together to form a U-tube open at both ends. If the U-tube contains water, what is the difference in its levels in the two limbs of the tube? Surface tension of water at the temperature of the experiment is 7.3 × 10–2 N m–1. Take the angle of contact to be zero and density of water to be 1.0 × 103 kg m–3 (g = 9.8 m s–2)
The force of surface tension acts tangentially to the surface whereas the force due to air pressure acts perpendicularly on the surface. How is then the force due to excess pressure inside a bubble balanced by the force due to the surface tension?
