Under isothermal conditions, two soap bubbles of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ combine to form a single soap bubble of radius $R$. If $P$ is the outside pressure, find the surface tension $T$ of the soap solution.

  • A
    $\frac{P(R^3+r_1^3+r_2^3)}{4(r_1^2-r_2^2+R^2)}$
  • B
    $\frac{P(R^2+r_1^2+r_2^2)}{4(r_1^2-r_2^2+R^2)}$
  • C
    $\frac{P(R^3-r_1^3-r_2^3)}{4(r_1^2+r_2^2-R^2)}$
  • D
    $\frac{P(R^2-r_1^2-r_2^2)}{4(r_1^3+r_2^3-R^3)}$
