    The radius R of the soap bubble is doubled under isothermal condition. If T be the surface tension of soap bubble, the required surface energy in doing so is given by:

    A)  \[32\pi {{R}^{2}}T\]

    B)  \[24\pi {{R}^{2}}T\]

    C)  \[8\pi {{R}^{2}}T\]

    D)  \[4\pi {{R}^{2}}T\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Initial surface energy \[{{U}_{1}}=2\times 4\pi {{R}^{2}}T=8\pi {{R}^{2}}T\] Final surface energy \[{{U}_{2}}=2\times 4\pi {{(2R)}^{2}}T=32\pi {{R}^{2}}T\] Hence, required energy \[=32\pi {{R}^{2}}T-8\pi {{R}^{2}}T=24\pi {{R}^{2}}T\]
