Air is pushed in a soap bubble to increase its radius from R to 2R . In this case the pressure inside the bubble

A

becomes zero

B

increases

C

decreases

D

does not change

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Excess pressure in a soap bubble is `P = (4T)/R i.e P prop 1/R`
Thus if the radius of the soap bubble is increased , the pressure is decreased .
