Two identical soaop bubbles each of radi...

Two identical soaop bubbles each of radius `r` and of the same surface tension `T` combine to form a new soap bubble od radius `R`. The two bubbles contain air at the same temperature. If the atmospheric pressure is `p_(0)` then find the surface tension `T` of the soap solution in terms of `p_(0), r` and `R`. Assume process is isothermal.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`T = (p_(0)(2r^(3) - R^(3)))/(4(R^(2) - 2r^(2)))`
