`n` number of water droplets, each of radius `r`, coalese, to form a single drop of radius `R`. The rise in temperature `d theta` is

A

`(2T)/(rJ)`

B

`(3T)/(J)((1)/(r )-(1)/(R ))`

C

`-(3T)/(J)`

D

`(3T)/(J)((1)/(r )+(1)/(R ))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let `n` drops coalesce to form a big drop. Then
`nxx(4)/(3)pir^(3)=(4)/(3)piR^(3)rArrn=(R^(3))/(r^(3))`
Heat produced `=("work done")/(J)=S.Txx("decrease in area")/(J)=mtheta d theta`
`rArr d theta=(3T)/(J)((1)/(r )-(1)/(R ))`
