Properties Of Solids And Liquids Question 313

Question: The adjoining diagram shows three soap bubbles A, B and C prepared by blowing the capillary tube fitted with stop cocks, S1, S2 and S3. With stop cock S closed and stop cocks S1, S2 and S3 opened [CPMT 1988]

Options:

A) B will start collapsing as the volumes of A and C increase

B) C will start collapsing as the volumes of A and B increase

C) C and A both will start collapsing as the volume of B increases

D) Volumes of A, B and C will become equal at equilibrium

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

Excess pressure inside a soap bubble is inversely proportional to the radius of the bubble i.e. $ \Delta P\propto \frac{1}{r} $ This means that bubbles A and C have greater pressure inside them than B. So the air will move from A and C towards B.
