A large number of liquid drops each of radius r coalesce to from a single drop of radiusR. 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 liquidT, densityρ)

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

n43πr3=43πR3

n=R3r3

ΔU=n 4πr2 T-4πR2 T

=4πT nr2-R2

=4πT R3r2r3-R2

∴  Energy released,

U=4πT R 3 [ 1 r − 1 R ]

If this energy is converted into kinetic energy then

1 2 m v 2 =4π R 3 T[ 1 r − 1 R ]

1 2 ×[ 4 3 π R 3 ρ ] v 2 =4π R 3 T[ 1 r − 1 R ]

v= 6T ρ [ 1 r − 1 R ]
