The radii of two soap bubbles are $r_1$ and $r_2$. In isothermal conditions,they meet together in a vacuum. Then the radius of the resultant bubble is given by

  • A
    $\frac{r_{1} r_{2}}{r_{1}+r_{2}}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{r_{1} r_{2}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{r_{1}^{2}+r_{2}^{2}}$
  • D
    $\frac{r_{1}+r_{2}}{2}$

The adjoining diagram shows three soap bubbles $A, B$ and $C$ prepared by blowing the capillary tube fitted with stop cocks $S_1, S_2$ and $S_3$. With stop cock $S$ closed and stop cocks $S_1, S_2$ and $S_3$ opened,what will happen?

$A$ glass capillary tube of inner diameter $0.28 \ mm$ is lowered vertically into water in a vessel. The pressure to be applied on the water in the capillary tube so that the water level in the tube is the same as that in the vessel (in $N/m^2$) is:
Surface tension of water $= 0.07 \ N/m$
Atmospheric pressure $= 10^5 \ N/m^2$

What is the excess pressure inside a bubble of soap solution of radius $5.00 \; mm$,given that the surface tension of soap solution at the temperature $(20 \; ^{\circ}C)$ is $2.50 \times 10^{-2} \; N m^{-1}$? If an air bubble of the same dimension were formed at a depth of $40.0 \; cm$ inside a container containing the soap solution (of relative density $1.20$),what would be the pressure inside the bubble? ($1$ atmospheric pressure is $1.01 \times 10^{5} \; Pa$).

Two soap bubbles combine to form a single bubble. In this process,the change in volume and surface area are respectively $V$ and $A$. If $P$ is the atmospheric pressure,and $T$ is the surface tension of the soap solution,the following relation is true :

$A$ vessel having a small hole in the bottom must hold water without leakage when water is poured to a height of $7 \text{ cm}$. What is the radius of the hole (in $\text{ mm}$)? [Surface tension of water is $0.07 \text{ N/m}$, angle of contact is $0^{\circ}$, and $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$]
