MCQ
Surface tension of a soap bubble is $2.0 \times 10^{-2}\; Nm ^{-1}$. Work done to increase the radius of soap bubble from $3.5\; cm$ to $7\; cm$ will be $.........\times 10^{-4}\,J$ [Take $\pi=\frac{22}{7}$ ]
  • A
    $0.72$
  • B
    $5.76$
  • $18.48$
  • D
    $9.24$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$18.48$
c
Surface area of soap bubble $=2 \times 4 \pi R^2$

Work done $=$ change in surface energy $\times T_S$

$= T _{ S } \times 8 \pi \times\left( R _2^2- R _1^2\right)$

$=2 \times 10^{-2} \times 8 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 49 \times \frac{3}{4} \times 10^{-4}$

$=18.48 \times 10^{-4}\,J$
