(C) The work done to blow a soap bubble of radius $r$ is given by $W = T 	imes \Delta A$,where $T$ is the surface tension and $\Delta A$ is the change in surface area. Since a soap bubble has two surfaces,$\Delta A = 2 	imes (4 \pi r^2) = 8 \pi r^2$.For the first bubble of radius $R$: $W_1 = 8 \pi R^2 T_1$.For the second bubble of radius $2R$: $W_2 = 8 \pi (2R)^2 T_2 = 32 \pi R^2 T_2$.If the temperature remained constant $(T_1 = T_2)$,the work $W_2$ would be exactly $4 W_1$.However,heating the solution decreases the surface tension $(T_2 Therefore,$W_2 = 4 W_1 	imes (T_2 / T_1)$. Since $T_2 < T_1$,it follows that $W_2 < 4 W_1$.

$A$ soap bubble of radius $R$ is blown. After heating a solution,a second bubble of radius $2R$ is blown. The work required to blow the $2^{nd}$ bubble in comparison to that required for the $1^{st}$ bubble is

The work done in blowing a soap bubble of radius $R$ is $W_1$ at room temperature. Now the soap solution is heated. From the heated solution another soap bubble of radius $2R$ is blown and the work done is $W_2$. Then:

The work done in blowing a soap bubble of $10\, cm$ radius is (Surface tension of the soap solution is $\frac{3}{100}\,N/m$).

If $T$ is the surface tension of a soap solution, then the work done in blowing a soap bubble from diameter $D$ to diameter $2D$ is (in $\pi TD^{2}$)

The radius of a soap bubble is increased from $\frac{1}{\sqrt{\pi}} \text{ cm}$ to $\frac{2}{\sqrt{\pi}} \text{ cm}$. If the surface tension of water is $30 \text{ dynes/cm}$,then the work done will be ....... $ergs$.
