MCQ
The adjoining diagram shows three soap bubbles $A, B$ and $C$ prepared by blowing the capillary tube fitted with stop cocks, $S_1$, $S_2$ and $S_3$. With stop cock $S$ closed and stop cocks $S_1$, $S_2$ and $S_3$ opened
  • A
    B will start collapsing with volumes of $A$ and $C$ increasing
  • B
    $C$ will start collapsing with volumes of $A$ and $ B$ increasing
  • $C$ and $A$ both will start collapsing with the volume of $B$ increasing
  • D
    Volumes of $A, B$ and $C$ will become equal at equilibrium

Answer

Correct option: C.
$C$ and $A$ both will start collapsing with the volume of $B$ increasing
c
(c) Excess pressure inside soap bubble is inversely proportional to the radius of bubble 

i.e. $\Delta P \propto \frac{1}{r}$ 

This means that bubbles $A$ and $C$ posses greater pressure inside it than $B$. So the air will move from $A$ and $C$ towards $B$.

The figure represents the instantaneous picture of a longitudinal harmonic wave travelling along the negative $x$-axis. Identify the correct statement $(s)$ related to the movement of the points shown in the figure. The maximum displaced points are
Put a uniform meter scale horizontally on your extended index fingers with the left one at $0.00 cm$ and the right one at $90.00 cm$. When you attempt to move both the fingers slowly towards the center, initially only the left finger slips with respect to the scale and the right finger does not. After some distance, the left finger stops and the right one starts slipping. Then the right finger stops at a distance $x_R$ from the center ( $50.00 cm$ ) of the scale and the left one starts slipping again. This happens because of the difference in the frictional forces on the two fingers. If the coefficients of static and dynamic friction between the fingers and the scale are $0.40$ and $0.32$ , respectively, the value of $x_R($ in $cm )$ is. . . . . . .

If two glass plates have water between them and are separated by very small distance (see figure), it is very difficult to pull them apart. It is because the water in between forms cylindrical surface on the side that gives rise to lower pressure in the water in comparison to atmosphere. If the radius of the cylindrical surface is $R$ and surface tension of water is $T$ then the pressure in water between the plates is lower by
