Two soap bubbles have different radii but their surface tension is the same. Mark the correct statement

A

Internal pressure of the smaller bubble is higher than the internal pressure of the larger bubble

B

Pressure of the larger bubble is higher than the smaller bubble

C

Both bubbles have the same internal pressure

D

None of the above

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`DeltaP=(4sigma)/R implies DeltaP prop1/R ` if `R_1 lt R_2` then `DeltaP_1 gtDeltaP_2`
