  • A

    Bubble rises upwards because pressure at the bottom is less than that at the top.

  • B

    Bubble rises upwards because pressure at the bottom is greater than that at the top.

A cylinder with a movable piston contains air under a pressure $p_1$ and a soap bubble of radius $'r'$ . The pressure $p_2$ to which the air should be compressed by slowly pushing the piston into the cylinder for the soap bubble to reduce its size by half will be: (The surface tension is $\sigma $ , and the temperature $T$ is maintained constant)

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 hot air balloon is a sphere of radius $8$ $m$. The air inside is at a temperature of $60^{°}$ $C$. How large a mass can the balloon lift when the outside temperature is $20^{°}$ $C$ ? Assume air is an ideal gas, $R = 8.314\,J\,mol{e^{ - 1}},1\,atm = 1.013 \times {10^5}{P_a},$ the membrane tension is $= 5\,N/m$.

Air (density $\rho$ ) is being blown on a soap film (surface tension $T$ ) by a pipe of radius $R$ with its opening right next to the film. The film is deformed and a bubble detaches from the film when the shape of the deformed surface is a hemisphere. Given that the dynamic pressure on the film due to the air blown at speed $v$ is $\frac{1}{2} \rho v^{2}$, the speed at which the bubble formed is
