$A$ 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:

  • A
    $89$
  • B
    $90$
  • C
    $96$
  • D
    $80$

Assume that a drop of liquid evaporates by a decrease in its surface energy,such that its temperature remains unchanged. What should be the minimum radius of the drop for this to be possible? The surface tension is $T$,the density of the liquid is $\rho$,and $L$ is its latent heat of vaporization.
