What is the excess pressure inside a bubble of soap solution of radius 5.00mm, given that the surface tension of soap solution at the temperature `(20^(@)C)` is `2.50xx10^(-2)Nm^(-1)`? If an air bubble of the same dimension were formed at a depth of 40.0 cm inside a container containing the soap solution (of relative density 1.20), what would be the pressure inside the bubble? (1atm. is `1.01 xx 10^(5)Pa`).

Answer» Here surface tension of soap solution at room temperature
`T=2.50xx10^(-2)Nm^(-1)`, radius of soap bubble `r=5.00mm=5.00xx10^(-3)m`
`therefore` Excess pressure inside soap bubble, `P=P_(i)-P_(0)=(4T)/(r)`
`=(4xx2.50xx10^(-2))/(5.00xx10^(-3))=20.0Pa`
When an air bubble of radius `r=5.00xx10^(-3)` m is formed at a depth `h=40.0cm=0.4m` inside a container containing a soap solution of relative density 1.20 or density `rho=1.20xx10^(3)kgm^(-3)`, then excess pressure
`P=P_(i)-P_(0)=(2T)/(r)`
`thereforeP_(i)=P_(0)+(2T)/(r)=(P_(a)+h rhog)+(2T)/(r)`
`=[1.01xx10^(5)xx0.4xx1.2xx10^(3)xx9.8+(2xx50xx10^(-2))/(5.00xx10^(-3))]Pa`
`=(1.01xx10^(5)+4.7xx10^(3)+10.0)Pa`

Also `(A_(1))/(A_(2))=(4pir_(1)^(2))/(4pir_(2)^(2))=((r_(1))/(r_(2)))^(2)=((r_(1))/(3r_(1)))^(2)" "`(Using (i))
`=(1)/(9)`

Answer» Total cross-sectional area of 40 hiles, `a_(2)`
`=40xx(22)/(7)xx((1xx10^(-3))^(2))/(4)m^(2)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Here, area of cross section of tube
`a_(1)=6 cm^(2)=6xx10^(-4) m^(2)`
Number of holes =50
Diameter of each hole, D=1mm, `10^(-3)`m
Radius of hole, `r=(D)/(2)=(1)/(2)xx10^(-3)=5xx10^(-4)`m
Area of cross-section of each hole
`=pir^(2)=pi(5xx10^(-4))^(2) m^(2)`
Speed of liquid inside the tube,
`v_(1)=1.2 m "min"^(-1)=(1.2)/(60) m s^(-1)=0.02 m s^(-1)`
Let the velocity of ejection of the liquid through the hole `v_(2)`
As `a_(1)v_(1)=a_(2)v_(2)`

Two vessels have the same base area but differnent shapes. The first vessel takes twice the vloume of water that the second vessel requires to fill up to a paricular common height . Is the force exerted by water on the base of the vessel the same in the two case? If so, why do the vessels filled with water to that same height give different reading on a weighting scale ?

Answer» Pressure (and therefore force) on the two equal base areas are identical. But force is exertd by water on the sides of the vessels also, which has a non-zero vertical component when sides of the vessel are not perfectly normal to the base. This net vertical component of force by water on the sides of the vessel is g reater for the first vessel than the second. hence, the vessels weigh different even when the force on the base is the same in the two cases.

Select the correct optionA. As we move down through a liquid at rest the pressure increasesB. As we move along horizontal through a liquid at rest the pressure remains unchangedC. As we move along horizontal through a liquid subjected to a horizontal acceleration, the pressure increases in the direction of accelerationD. The gauge pressure at a point inside a liquid depends on atmospheric pressure

A volume V of a viscous liquid flows per unit time due to a pressure head `DeltaP` along a pipe of diameter d and length l. instead of this pipe a set of four pipes each of diameter `(d)/(2)` and length 2l is connected to the same pressure head `DeltaP`. Now the volume of liquid flowing per unit time is:A. `(V)/(16)`B. `(V)/(8)`C. `(V)/(4)`D. `V`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`V=(piPr^(4))/(8 l eta),Vprop(r^(4))/(l)`
`(V_(1))/(V_(2))=((r_(1))/(r_(2)))^(4)xx(l_(2))/(l_(1))=32,V_(2)=(V)/(32)`
For 4 pipes,
`V_(2)^(1)=4V_(2)=4xx(V)/(32)=(V)/(8)`
