An air bubble released at the bottom of a lake, rises and on reaching the top, its radius found to be doubled. If the atmospheric pressure is equivalent to H metre of water column, find the depth of the lake (Assume that the temperature of water in the lake is uniform)​

Answer»

rong>ANSWER :-

Volume of the air bubble at the BOTTOM of the lake

\sf (V_1) = \dfrac{4}{3}\pi (2r)^{3}

Volume of the air bubble at the surface of the lake

\sf (V_2) = \dfrac{4}{3}\pi (2r)^{3}

Pressure at the surface of the lake (P₂) = H meter of water column. if 'h' is the depth of the lake (P₁) = (H + h) metre of water column.

since the temperature of the lake is uniform

According to Boyle's law, .i.e.,

\sf p_{1} V_{1} = p_{2}V_{2}

\sf (H + h) \bigg(\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^{3} \bigg) = H \bigg[ \dfrac{4}{3} \pi (2r)^{3}\bigg]

\sf (H + h) = 8H

\sf  h = 7H
