$1000$ droplets of water, each having a diameter of $2 \ mm$, coalesce to form a single drop. Given the surface tension of water is $0.072 \ N/m$. The energy loss in the process is

$A$ bubble has surface tension $S$. The ideal gas inside the bubble has a ratio of specific heats $\gamma = \frac{5}{3}$. The bubble is exposed to the atmosphere and it always retains its spherical shape. When the atmospheric pressure is $P_{a1}$,the radius of the bubble is $r_1$ and the temperature of the enclosed gas is $T_1$. When the atmospheric pressure is $P_{a2}$,the radius of the bubble and the temperature of the enclosed gas are $r_2$ and $T_2$,respectively.
Which of the following statement$(s)$ is(are) correct?
$(A)$ If the surface of the bubble is a perfect heat insulator,then $\left(\frac{r_1}{r_2}\right)^5 = \frac{P_{a2} + \frac{4S}{r_2}}{P_{a1} + \frac{4S}{r_1}}$
$(B)$ If the surface of the bubble is a perfect heat insulator,then the total internal energy of the bubble including its surface energy does not change with the external atmospheric pressure.
$(C)$ If the surface of the bubble is a perfect heat conductor and the change in atmospheric temperature is negligible,then $\left(\frac{r_1}{r_2}\right)^3 = \frac{P_{a2} + \frac{4S}{r_2}}{P_{a1} + \frac{4S}{r_1}}$
$(D)$ If the surface of the bubble is a perfect heat insulator,then $\left(\frac{T_2}{T_1}\right)^{\frac{5}{2}} = \frac{P_{a2} + \frac{4S}{r_2}}{P_{a1} + \frac{4S}{r_1}}$

The excess pressure inside one soap bubble is four times that of another. What is the ratio of the volume of the first bubble to the second bubble?

An air bubble doubles its radius on rising from the bottom of a water reservoir to the surface. If the atmospheric pressure is equal to $10 \, m$ of water,the height of the water in the reservoir is ..... $m$.

$A$ spherical soap bubble inside an air chamber at pressure $P_0 = 10^5 \ Pa$ has a certain radius $R$ such that the excess pressure inside the bubble is $\Delta P = 144 \ Pa$. Now,the chamber pressure is reduced to $8P_0 / 27$ so that the bubble radius and its excess pressure change. In this process,all temperatures remain unchanged. Assume air to be an ideal gas and the excess pressure $\Delta P$ in both cases to be much smaller than the chamber pressure. The new excess pressure $\Delta P'$ in $Pa$ is:
