n droplets of water each of radius r coalesce to form a big drop of radius R. If the energy released during coalescence goes into heating the drop, then the rise in temperature will be (take T as surface tension of water and J as mechanical equivalent of heat)

Raj Pandey

$R = n^{1 / 3} r$

$E = T . Δ A = ms Δ T J$

A water drop of diameter 2 cm is broken into 64 equal droplets. The surface tension of water is 0.075N/m. In this process the gain in surface energy will be:

Raj Pandey

Gain in surface energy, $Δ U = T Δ A$

from volume centenary, $\frac{4}{3} π R^{3} = 64 \times \frac{4}{3} π r^{3}$

$\Rightarrow r = \frac{R}{4}$

Initial surface area, Ai = 4pR²

final surface area, $A_{f} = 64 \times 4 π r^{2}$

$∴ Δ U = 12 π R^{2} . T = 0.075 \times 12 \times 3.14 \times 1 0^{- 4} = 2.8 \times 1 0^{- 4} J$

When two soap bubbles of radii a and b (b > a) coalesce, the radius of curvature of common surface is:



Vishal Baghel

P? - P? = 4T/a

P? - P? = 4T/b

P? - P? = 4T (1/a - 1/b)

Also, P? - P? = 4T/r

4T/r = 4T (1/a - 1/b)

1/r = (b-a)/ab

r = ab / (b-a)

A large number of water drops, each of radius r, combine to have a drop of radius R. If the surface tension is T and mechanical equivalent of heat is J, the rise in heat energy per unit volume will be

Payal Gupta

From volume conservation

$n \times \frac{4}{3} π r^{3} = \frac{4}{3} π R^{3} \Rightarrow R^{3} = n r^{3} . . . . . . . . . (1)$

Decrease in surface area = $n \times 4 π r^{2} - 4 π R^{2}$

$(Δ A) = 4 π [n r^{2} - R^{2}] = 4 π [\frac{n \times r^{3}}{r} - R^{2}] = 4 π [\frac{R^{3}}{r} - R^{2}] = 4 π R^{3} [\frac{1}{r} - \frac{1}{R}]$

Energy released (W) = $T \times Δ A = 4 π R^{3} T [\frac{1}{r} - \frac{1}{R}]$

Heat produced (Q) = $\frac{W}{J} = \frac{4 π T R^{3}}{J} [\frac{1}{r} - \frac{1}{R}]$

$N o w, Q = m s Δ θ$

$\Rightarrow \frac{4 π R^{3} T}{J} [\frac{1}{r} - \frac{1}{R}] = (\frac{4}{3} π R^{3}) \times | x | \times Δ θ = \frac{3 T}{J} [\frac{1}{r} - \frac{1}{R}]$

A water drop of radius 1cm is broken into 729 equal droplets. If surface tension of water is 75 dyne/cm, then the gain in surface energy upto first decimal place will be:

(Given p = 3.14)

Payal Gupta

$\frac{4}{3} π R^{3} = 729 \frac{4}{3} π r^{3}$

R³= 729r³

$R = (729) \frac{1}{3} (r) (\frac{1}{3})$

R = 9r

$Δ u = T (4 π r^{2}) \times 729 - T \times 4 π R^{2}$

$= T \times 4 π \times 8 R^{2}$

$\begin{array}{l} = 75.39 \times 1 0^{- 5} J \\ Δ u = 7.5 \times 1 0^{- 4} J \end{array}$
