A large number of liquid drops each of radius rr coalesce to form a single drop of the radius RR. The energy released in the process is converted into kinetic energy of the big drop so formed. The speed of the big drop is (given surface tension of the liquid TT, density ρρ)

Options

  1. A\sqrt{\dfrac{2T}{ρ}\left(\dfrac{1}{r} - \dfrac{1}{R}\right)}
  2. B\sqrt{\dfrac{6T}{ρ}\left(\dfrac{1}{r} - \dfrac{1}{R}\right)}
  3. C\sqrt{\dfrac{4T}{ρ}\left(\dfrac{1}{r} - \dfrac{1}{R}\right)}
  4. D\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{ρ}\left(\dfrac{1}{r} - \dfrac{1}{R}\right)}

Correct answer

B. \sqrt{\dfrac{6T}{ρ}\left(\dfrac{1}{r} - \dfrac{1}{R}\right)}

Step-by-step solution

n×43πr3=43πR3n \times \dfrac{4}{3}\pi{r}^{3} = \dfrac{4}{3}\pi{R}^{3}

∴n=R3r3.....∴ n = \dfrac{{R}^{3}}{{r}^{3}} . . . . .\left(i\right)</p><p></p><p>KE = {U}_{i} - {U}_{f}</p><p></p><p>= n \times 4\pi{r}^{2}T - 4\pi{R}^{2}T</p><p></p><p>= 4\piT ( n{r}^{2} - {R}^{2} )</p><p></p><p>= 4\piT{R}^{2}\left(\dfrac{R}{r} - 1\right)from(i)from \left(i\right)

12(43πR3⋅ρ)υ2=4\piTR2(Rr−1)\dfrac{1}{2}\left(\dfrac{4}{3}\pi{R}^{3} \cdot ρ\right){υ}^{2} = 4\piT{R}^{2}\left(\dfrac{R}{r} - 1\right)

Rρυ26=T(Rr−1)\dfrac{Rρ{υ}^{2}}{6} = T\left(\dfrac{R}{r} - 1\right)

ρ6υ2=T(1r−1R)\dfrac{ρ}{6}{υ}^{2} = T\left(\dfrac{1}{r} - \dfrac{1}{R}\right)

υ=6Tρ(1r−1R)υ = \sqrt{\dfrac{6T}{ρ}\left(\dfrac{1}{r} - \dfrac{1}{R}\right)}
