If two soap bubbles of different radii are connected by a tube,then

When a big drop of water is formed from $n$ small drops of water,the energy loss is $3E$,where $E$ is the energy of the bigger drop. The radius of the bigger drop is $R$ and that of the smaller drop is $r$. Then the value of $n$ is:

The excess pressure inside a spherical soap bubble of radius $1 \,cm$ is balanced by a column of oil (specific gravity $= 0.8$), $2 \,mm$ high. The surface tension of the bubble is: (in $\,N/m$)

Two soap bubbles $A$ and $B$ are kept in a closed chamber where the air is maintained at pressure $8 \ N/m^2$. The radii of bubbles $A$ and $B$ are $2 \ cm$ and $4 \ cm$,respectively. The surface tension of the soap solution is $0.04 \ N/m$. Find the ratio $n_B / n_A$,where $n_A$ and $n_B$ are the number of moles of air in bubbles $A$ and $B$,respectively. [Neglect the effect of gravity.]
