If two soap bubbles of different radii are connected by a tube,

A

Air flows from the bigger bubble to the smaller bubble till the sizes become equal

B

Air flows from bigger bubble to the smaller bubble till the sizes air interchanged

C

Air flows from the smaller bubble to the bigger

D

There is no flow of air

Answer

Air flows from the smaller bubble to the bigger

Explanation

Solution

P = 2T/R ; R is less for smaller bubble, P is more for larger bubble, R is more, P is less. Since air flows from higher pressure to lower pressure therefore the air shall flow from smaller bubble to larger bubble.
