$A$ spherical soap bubble has internal pressure $P_0$ and radius $r_0$ and is in equilibrium in an enclosure with pressure $P_1 = \frac{8P_0}{9}$. The enclosure is gradually evacuated. Assuming temperature and surface tension of the soap bubble to be fixed, find the value of $\frac{\text{final radius}}{\text{initial radius}}$ of the soap bubble.

$A$ bubble has surface tension $S$. The ideal gas inside the bubble has a ratio of specific heats $\gamma = \frac{5}{3}$. The bubble is exposed to the atmosphere and it always retains its spherical shape. When the atmospheric pressure is $P_{a1}$,the radius of the bubble is $r_1$ and the temperature of the enclosed gas is $T_1$. When the atmospheric pressure is $P_{a2}$,the radius of the bubble and the temperature of the enclosed gas are $r_2$ and $T_2$,respectively.
Which of the following statement$(s)$ is(are) correct?
$(A)$ If the surface of the bubble is a perfect heat insulator,then $\left(\frac{r_1}{r_2}\right)^5 = \frac{P_{a2} + \frac{4S}{r_2}}{P_{a1} + \frac{4S}{r_1}}$
$(B)$ If the surface of the bubble is a perfect heat insulator,then the total internal energy of the bubble including its surface energy does not change with the external atmospheric pressure.
$(C)$ If the surface of the bubble is a perfect heat conductor and the change in atmospheric temperature is negligible,then $\left(\frac{r_1}{r_2}\right)^3 = \frac{P_{a2} + \frac{4S}{r_2}}{P_{a1} + \frac{4S}{r_1}}$
$(D)$ If the surface of the bubble is a perfect heat insulator,then $\left(\frac{T_2}{T_1}\right)^{\frac{5}{2}} = \frac{P_{a2} + \frac{4S}{r_2}}{P_{a1} + \frac{4S}{r_1}}$

$A$ vessel having a small hole in the bottom must hold water without leakage when water is poured to a height of $7 \text{ cm}$. What is the radius of the hole (in $\text{ mm}$)? [Surface tension of water is $0.07 \text{ N/m}$, angle of contact is $0^{\circ}$, and $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$]

If the excess pressure inside a soap bubble of radius $3 \,mm$ is equal to the pressure of a water column of height $0.8 \,cm$, then the surface tension of the soap solution is ( $\rho_{\text{water}} = 1000 \,kg/m^3, g = 9.8 \,m/s^2$ ).

Two water drops each of radius $r$ coalesce to form a bigger drop. If $T$ is the surface tension,the surface energy released in this process is
