$A$ small soap bubble of radius $4 \ cm$ is trapped inside another bubble of radius $6 \ cm$ without any contact. Let $P_2$ be the pressure inside the inner bubble and $P_0$ be the pressure outside the outer bubble. The radius of another bubble with a pressure difference $P_2 - P_0$ between its inside and outside would be....... $cm$.
