A large number of liquid drops each of radius 'a' coalesce to form a single spherical drop of radish b. The energy released in the process is converted into kinetic energy of the big drops formed. The speed of big drop will be

A

`sqrt ((T )/( rho ) ((1)/(r ) - (1)/( R )))`

B

`sqrt ((2T )/( rho ) ((1)/(r ) - (1)/( R )))`

C

`sqrt ((4T )/( rho ) ((1)/(r ) - (1)/( R )))`

D

`sqrt ((6T )/( rho ) ((1)/(r ) - (1)/( R )))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

When drops combine to form a single drop of radius R.
Then energy released, `E = 4 pi TR ^(3) [ (1)/(r ) - (1)/(R )]`
If this energy is converted into kinetic energy then
`1/2 mv^(2) = 4 pi R ^(3) T [ (1)/(r )- (1)/(R )]`
` 1/2 xx [ (4)/(3) pi R ^(3) rho ] v ^(2) = 4pi R ^(3)T [(1)/(r ) - (1)/(R )] v = sqrt ((6T)/(rho )[(1)/(r) - (1)/(R)])`
