Two unequal soap bubbles are formed one ...

Two unequal soap bubbles are formed one on each side of a tube closed in the middle by a tap. What happens when the tap is opened to put the two bubbles in communication?

A

no air passes in any direction as the pressures are the same on two sides of the tap

B

larger bubbles shrinks and smaller bubble increases in size till they become equal in size

C

smaller bubbles gradually collapses and the bigger one increases in size

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Due to excesss pressure air flows from smaller to larger bubble and the smaller one collapses and the bigger one increases in size.
