प्रश्न
If two soap bubbles of different radii are connected by a tube,
विकल्प
air flows from bigger bubble to the smaller bubble till the sizes become equal
air flows from bigger bubble to the smaller bubble till the sizes are interchanged
air flows from the smaller bubble to the bigger
there is no flow of air.

उत्तर
The smaller bubble has a greater inner pressure than the bigger bubble. Air moves from a region of high pressure to a region of low pressure. Therefore, air moves from the smaller to the bigger bubble.
