Explanation

(d) 

The pressure inside a small air bubble of radius 0.1 mm situated just below the surface of water will be equal to
[Take surface tension of water 70×10-3 Nm-1 and atmospheric pressure =1.013×105 Nm-2 ]

Explanation

(c) Excess pressure inside the air bubble =2Tr

Pin-Pout=2Tr=2×70×10-30.1×10-3=1400 PaPin=1400+1.013×105=1.027×105 Pa

Two bubbles A and B are joined through a narrow tube where bubble A is bigger. Then

Explanation

 

(a) 

rA>rB and  P1r so PA<PB

So air will flow from B to A i.e. size of A will increase.

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

Explanation

(a) P=4TR     P1R       (T= constant)

Hence, the internal pressure of smaller bubble is larger than that of larger bubble.

If the excess pressure inside a soap bubble is balanced by oil column of height 2 mm, then the surface tension of soap solution will be (r = 1 cm and density d = 0.8 gm/cc)

(b) 4TR=hdg      T=Rhdg4T=10-2×2×10-3×0.8×103×9.84=3.9×10-2 N/m

Due to capillary action, a liquid will rise in a tube, if the angle of contact is

Explanation

(a) h=2Tcosθrdg. If θ is less than 90° then h will be positive

Two parallel glass plates are dipped partly in the liquid of density 'd' keeping them vertical. If the distance between the plates is 'x', surface tension for liquids is T and angle of contact is θ, then rise of liquid between the plates due to capillary will be 

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

The rise of liquid between two parallel glass plates due to capillary action is given by the formula (2T cosθ)/(xdg), where T is the surface tension, θ is the angle of contact, x is the distance between the plates, d is the density of the liquid, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Water rises in a capillary tube to a certain height such that the upward force due to surface tension is balanced by 75×10-4 N force due to the weight of the liquid. If the surface tension of water is 6×10-2 Nm-1, the inner circumference of the capillary must be
