Surface Energy & Work Done

The surface tension of soap is 3.5×10−2 N m−13.5 \times 10^{-2}\text{ N m}^{-1}. The amount of work done required to increase the radius of soap bubble from 10 cm10\text{ cm} to 20 cm20\text{ cm} is _________ ×10−4 J\times 10^{-4}\text{ J}.

(take π=22/7)(\text{take } \pi = 22/7)

Answer: 264

  1. W=8πT(r22−r12)W = 8\pi T (r_2^2 - r_1^2)
  2. W=8×227×3.5×10−2×(0.04−0.01)W = 8 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 3.5\times10^{-2} \times (0.04 - 0.01)
  3. W=0.88×0.03=0.0264 J=264×10−4 JW = 0.88 \times 0.03 = 0.0264\text{ J} = 264\times10^{-4}\text{ J}
  4. So the answer is 264.
