Excess Pressure: Drops & Bubbles

The pressure inside a soap bubble AA is 1.01 atmosphere and that in a soap bubble B is 1.02 atmosphere. The ratio of volume of bubble A to that of B is [Surrounding pressure =1= 1 atmosphere]

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. Excess pressures: ΔPA=0.01\Delta P_A = 0.01 atm, ΔPB=0.02\Delta P_B = 0.02 atm.
  2. ΔP∝1R⇒RARB=2\Delta P \propto \frac{1}{R} \Rightarrow \frac{R_A}{R_B} = 2
  3. VAVB=23=8\frac{V_A}{V_B} = 2^3 = 8
  4. So the answer is (c) 8:18 : 1.
