The excess pressure inside an air bubble of radius $r$ just below the surface of water is $p_1$. The excess pressure inside a drop of the same radius just outside the surface is $p_2$. If $T$ is surface tension,then

  • A
    $p_1 = 2p_2$
  • B
    $p_1 = p_2$
  • C
    $p_2 = 2p_1$
  • D
    $p_2 = 0, p_1 \neq 0$

The radii of two mercury drops are $R_1$ and $R_2$. Under isothermal conditions,a single drop of radius $R$ is formed from them. The relation between $R, R_1$ and $R_2$ is

$A$ vessel,whose bottom has round holes with a diameter of $0.1 \, mm$,is filled with water. The maximum height to which the water can be filled without leakage is ....... $cm$ (Surface Tension of water = $75 \, dyne/cm$,$g = 1000 \, cm/s^2$).

Consider an air bubble of radius $2 \,mm$ in a liquid at a depth of $5 \,cm$ below the free surface. The density of the liquid is $1000 \,kg/m^3$ and the surface tension is $0.1 \,N/m$. Find the pressure inside the air bubble relative to the pressure at the free surface of the liquid. (Take $g = 10 \,m/s^2$) (in $\,Pa$)
