The excess pressure inside a spherical soap bubble of radius \(1 \mathrm{~cm}\) is balanced by a column of oil (Specific gravity \(=0.8\) ), \(2 \mathrm{~mm}\) high , the surface tension of the bubble is

  1. A \(3.92 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\)
  2. B \(0.0392 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\)
  3. C \(0.392 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\)
  4. D \(0.00392 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(0.0392 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The excess pressure of soap bubble \(p=\frac{4 T}{R}\) \(h \rho g=\frac{4 T}{R}\) \(\therefore T=\frac{R h \rho g}{4}\) \(=\frac{1 \times 10^{-2} \times 2 \times 10^{-3} \times 0.8 \times 10^3 \times 9.8}{4}\) \(=3.92 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}\)…
