The excess pressure inside one soap bubble is three times that inside a second soap bubble, then the ratio of their surface area is:

Derive an expression for excess of pressure (pressure difference) inside the drop and bubble.

Statement -1 : A large soap bubble expands while a small bubble shrink, when they are connecteed to each other by a capillary tube. Statement -2 : The excess pressure (due to surface tension) inside a spherical bubble increasesee, as its volume decreases.

A small spherical monoatomic ideal gas bubble (gamma=5//3) is trapped inside a liquid of density rho (see figure). Assume that the bubble does not exchange any heat with the liquid. The bubble contains n moles of gas. The temperature of the gas when the bubble is at the bottom is T_0 , the height of the liquid is H and the atmospheric pressure P_0 (Neglect surface tension). As the bubble moves upwards, besides the buoyancy force the following forces are acting on it

The pressure of air in a soap bubble of 0.7 cm diameter is 8 mm of water above the atmospheric pressure calculate the surface tension of soap solution. (take g=980cm//sec^(2))

Statement-1: Two identical conincal pipes shown in figure have a drop of water. The water drop tens to move towards tapered end. Statement-2: Excess pressure is directed towards centre of curvature and inversely proportional to radius of curvature. Net excess pressure is therefore, directed towards tapered end. So the water drop tends to move towards tapered end.

When a vertical capillary of length l with a sealed upper end was brought in contact with the surface of a liquid, the level of this liquid rose to the height h . The liquid density is rho , the inside diameter the capillary is d , the contact angle is theta , the atmospheric pressure is rho_(0) . Find the surface tension of the liquid. (Temperature in this process remains constant.)

A small spherical monoatomic ideal gas bubble (gamma=5//3) is trapped inside a liquid of density rho (see figure). Assume that the bubble does not exchange any heat with the liquid. The bubble contains n moles of gas. The temperature of the gas when the bubble is at the bottom is T_0 , the height of the liquid is H and the atmospheric pressure P_0 (Neglect surface tension). The buoyancy force acting on the gas bubble is (Assume R is the universal gas constant)

A small spherical monoatomic ideal gas bubble (gamma= (5)/(3)) is trapped inside a liquid of density rho_(l) (see figure) . Assume that the bubble does not exchange any heat with the liquid. The bubble contains n moles of gas. The temperature of the gas when the bubble is at the bottom is T_(0) , the height of the liquid is H and the atmospheric pressure is P_(0) (Neglect surface tension). When the gas bubble is at a height y from the bottom , its temperature is :-

A spherical drop of water bas 3 xx 10^(10) C amount of charge residing on it. 500 V electric potential exists on its surface. Calculate the radius of this drop. If eight such drops (having identical charge and radii) combine to form a single drop, calculate the electric potential on the surface of the new drop. (k = 9 xx 10^(9) SI)
