Describe a simple experiment for the measurement of the surface tension of a liquid.

When water is heated,bubbles form at the bottom and detach to rise. Let the radius of the bubble be $R$. The bubble is in circular contact with the bottom of the container with a radius $r$. If $r \ll R$ and the surface tension of water is $T$,find the value of $r$ just before the bubble detaches from the container. (Density of water is $\rho_w$)
