A conducting spherical bubble of radius r and thick-ness t(t lt lt r) is charged to a potential V. Now it collapses to form a spherical droplet. Find the potential of the droplet.

Answer»

SOLUTION :Here charge and MASS are conserved. If R is the RADIUS of the resulting drop formed and `rho` is density of soap solution,
`(4)/(3) piR^(3)rho=4pir^(2)t rho rArrR=(3r^(2)t)^(1//3)`
Now potential of the bubble is `V=(1)/(4PI in_(0))(q)/(r )`
or `q=4pi in_(0)rV`
Now potential of resulting drop is
`V^(1)=(1)/(4pi in_(0)) (q)/(R ) =((r )/(3t))^(1//3)V`.
