A curved liquid surface has radius of curvature `R_(1) and R_(2)` in two perpendicular directions as shown in figure. Surface tension of the liquid is `T`. Find the difference in pressure on the concave side and the convex side of the liquid surface.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`DeltaP=T(1/R_(1)+1/R_(2))`
