A number of small water droplets of surface tension ' \(T\) ', each of radius ' \(r\) ' are combined to form a single drop of radius ' \(R\) '. If the released energy is converted into kinetic energy, then the velocity acquired by the bigger drop is ____ (\(\rho\) - density of water)

  1. A \(\sqrt{\frac{R-r}{\rho r R}}\)
  2. B \(\frac{6 \mathrm{TrR}}{\rho(\mathrm{R}-\mathrm{r})}\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{\frac{6 \mathrm{~T}}{\rho}\left(\frac{\mathrm{R}-\mathrm{r}}{\mathrm{rR}}\right)}\)
  4. D \(\frac{6 \mathrm{~T}(\mathrm{R}-\mathrm{r})}{\rho \mathrm{R}}\)
