When two soap bubbles of radii \(a\) and \(b ( b > a )\) coalesce, the radius of curvature of common surface is
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\frac{a b}{b-a}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Let say \(P_{1}\) and \(P_{2}\) are the excess pressure on the two sides of the interface then the resultant excess pressure is \(P\)
\(\Rightarrow P=P_{2}-P_{1}\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{4 T}{r}=\frac{4 T}{r_{2}}-\frac{4 T}{r_{1}}\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{1}{r}=\frac{1}{r_2}-\frac{1}{r_1}\)
\(\Rightarrow r=\frac{r_{1} r_{1}}{r_{1}-r_{2}}\)
