A spherical soap bubble has an inside radius R, a film thickness t, and a surface tension
Question:
A spherical soap bubble has an inside radius R, a film thickness t, and a surface tension σ. Derive a formula for the pressure within the bubble relative to the outside atmospheric pressure. What is the pressure difference for a bubble with a 4 mm radius? Assume σ is the same as for pure water.

The property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force, due to the cohesive nature of its molecules. The cohesive forces between liquid molecules are responsible for the phenomenon known as surface tension. The molecules at the surface of a glass of water do not have other water molecules on all sides of them and consequently, they cohere more strongly to those directly associated with them (in this case, next to and below them, but not above). is not really true that a \\\"skin\\\" forms on the water surface; the stronger cohesion between the water molecules as opposed to the attraction of the water molecules to the air makes it more difficult to move an object through the surface than to move it when it is completely submersed
