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

A

air follows from the larger bubble into smaller bubble till both bubbles acquire-same size

B

air follows from the smaller bubble into larger bubble and the larger bubble grows in size with decrease in size of the smaller bubble

C

air does not flow but the sizes of the bubbles changes

D

sizes of the bubbles remain unchanged

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

When two bubbles come into contact. They try to minimize the surface area for which air flows from bubble having higher pressure (smaller radius) to bubble having lower pressure.
