JEE Main 2026 · 4 Apr · Shift 1, Physics question 47

The surface tension of a soap solution is 3.5×10−23.5\times10^{-2} N/m. The work required to increase the radius of a soap bubble from 1 cm to 2 cm is α×10−6\alpha\times10^{-6} J. The value of α\alpha is ________. (π=22/7\pi=22/7)

Answer and worked solution

Official answer: 264

A bubble has two surfaces.
W=2T⋅4π(r22−r12)=2(0.035)(4⋅227)(3×10−4)=2.64×10−4 J.W=2T\cdot4\pi\left(r_2^2-r_1^2\right)=2(0.035)\left(4\cdot\tfrac{22}7\right)(3\times10^{-4})=2.64\times10^{-4}\text{ J}.

Value. α=264\alpha=264.

Answer: 264
