→Wax is coated on the inner wall of a capillary tube and the tube is then dipped in water. Then, compared to the unwaxed capillary, the angle of contact $\theta $ and the height $h$ upto which water rises change. These changes are
→A spherical soap bubble inside an air chamber at pressure $P_0=10^5 Pa$ has a certain radius so that the excess pressure inside the bubble is $\Delta P=144 Pa$. Now, the chamber pressure is reduced to $8 P_0 / 27$ so that the bubble radius and its excess pressure change. In this process, all the temperatures remain unchanged. Assume air to be an ideal gas and the excess pressure $\Delta P$ in both the cases to be much smaller than the chamber pressure. The new excess pressure $\Delta P$ in $Pa$ is
