    The excess pressure inside a spherical soap bubble of radius 1cm is balanced by a column of oil (specific gravity = 0.8), 2 mm high , the surface tension of the bubble is

    A)  3.92 N/m           

    B)  0.0392 N/m

    C)  0.392 N/m         

    D)  0.00392 N/m

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    \[p=\frac{4T}{R}\] \[hpg=\frac{4T}{R}\] \[T=\frac{Rphg}{4}\] \[=\frac{1\times {{10}^{-2}}\times 2\times {{10}^{-3}}\times 0.8\times {{10}^{3}}\times 9.8}{4}\] \[=3.92\times {{10}^{-2}}N\text{/}m\] \[=0.0392\,N\text{/}m\]
