If surface tension at air-water interface is 0.069 N/m, What is pressure difference between inside and outside of an air bubble of diameter 0.009 mm?

SOLUTION:

Given,

Surface Tension,`sigma=0.069`N/m

Diameter of air bubble,`d=0.009`mm

Since an air bubble has only one surface,

`P*(pi*d^2)/4=sigma*pi*d`


or,`P=(4*sigma)/d=30667`N/`m^2`

A pressure vessel has an internal volume of 0.5 `m^3` at atmospheric pressure. It is desired to test the vessel at 3000 bar by pumping water into it. The estimated variation in the change of the empty volume of the container due to pressurization to 3000 bar is 0.6 percent. Calculate the mass of water to be pumped into the vessel to attain the desired pressure level given the bulk modulus of water as 2000 Mpa.
