Pressure in a Fluid

When a large bubble rises from bottom of a water lake to its surface, then its radius doubles. If the atmospheric pressure is equal to the pressure of height HH of a certain water column then the depth of lake will be

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. Radius doubles, so volume becomes 8V8V. At constant temperature, P1V1=P2V2P_1V_1 = P_2V_2.
  2. In water-column units: (H+h)V=H×8V(H + h)V = H\times8V
  3. h=7Hh = 7H
  4. So the answer is (c) 7H7H.
