    Depth of water at which air bubble of radius 0.4 mm may remain in equilibrium (surface tension   of   water   \[=72\times {{10}^{-3}}N/m,\] acceleration due to gravity\[=\text{ }9.8\text{ }m/{{s}^{2}}\]):

    A)  7.3 cm                                 

    B)  0.9 cm

    C)  1.8 cm                                 

    D)  3.6 cm

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     The excess pressure inside a air bubble is given by \[P=\frac{2T}{R}\]                 or            \[h\rho g=\frac{2T}{R}\left( \begin{align}   & Given:T=72\times {{10}^{-3}}N/m \\  & R=0.4\times {{10}^{-3}}m \\  & {{\rho }_{water}}={{10}^{3}}kg/{{m}^{3}} \\  & g=9.8\,m/{{s}^{2}} \\ \end{align} \right)\] \[h=\frac{2\times 72\times {{10}^{-3}}}{0.4\times {{10}^{-3}}\times {{10}^{3}}\times 9.8}\] \[h=\frac{2\times 72\times {{10}^{-3}}}{0.4\times 9.8}\] \[=36.7\times {{10}^{-3}}m\] \[=36.7\times {{10}^{-3}}\times {{10}^{2}}\,cm\] \[=3.67\,cm\]
