Assertion: Pressure in bubble (r) in the atmosphere of pressure is where is the radius and is surface tension.
Reason: is the excess pressure due to two surfaces exposed to the atmosphere.


Important Questions on Surface Tension
Assertion: Rise of water level in capillary tube should be accounted vertically and not as the length of pipe in which it has raised.
Reason: More the radius, the rise will decrease in the different liquids tested.

Assertion: When there is a thin layer of water between two glass plates, there is a strong attraction between them.
Reason: The pressure between the plates becomes less than atmospheric pressure because pressure inside a bubble or drop is greater than outside pressure.

A glass capillary tube of radius is placed vertically touching the surface of water. The water rises to height in capillary tube. If now the tube is dipped into water till only length of it is outside the water surface, the radius of curvature of the meniscus of water in capillary tube will be,

A capillary is dipped in a water vessel kept on a freely falling lift. Then,

Two spherical soap bubbles of radii and in vacuum coalesce under isothermal conditions. The resulting bubble has a radius such that,

Water rises to a height of in a glass capillary tube. If the area of cross-section of the tube is reduced to of the former value, the water rises to a height of,

Suppose $64$ raindrops combine to form a single drop. Calculate the ratio of the total surface energy of the $64$ drops to that of a single drop.

Two separate air bubbles (radii and formed of same liquid (Surface tension ) come together to form a double bubble. Find the radius of curvature in of the internal film surface common to both the bubbles.
