There is a howizontal film of soap solution. On it a thread is placed in the form of a loop. The film is pierced inside the loop and the thread becomes a circular loop of radius `R`. If the surface tension of the loop be `T`, then what will be the tension in the thread?

A

`(piR^2)/(T)`

B

`piR^2T`

C

`2piRT`

D

`2RT`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D


Suppose tension in thread is `F`, then for small part `trianglel` of thread
`trianglel=Rtheta` and `2Fsin(theta)/(2)=2Ttrianglel=2TRtheta`
`impliesF=(TRtheta)/((sintheta)/(2))=(TRtheta)/((theta)/(2))=2TR((sintheta)/(2)approx(theta)/(2))`
