Excess Pressure: Drops & Bubbles

The excess pressure inside a spherical drop of water A is four times that of another drop B. Then the ratio of mass of drop AA to that of drop BB is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. ΔP=2Tr∝1r\Delta P = \frac{2T}{r} \propto \frac{1}{r}; ΔPA=4ΔPB⇒rA=rB4\Delta P_A = 4\Delta P_B \Rightarrow r_A = \frac{r_B}{4}.
  2. mAmB=(14)3=164\frac{m_A}{m_B} = \left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^3 = \frac{1}{64}
  3. So the answer is (d) 1:641 : 64.
