When an air bubble of radius r rises from the bottom to the surface of a lake, its radius becomes . Taking the atmospheric pressure to be equal to 10 m height of water column, the depth of the lake would approximately be (ignore the surface tension and the effect of temperature) :
11.2 m
8.7 m
9.5 m
10.5 m
As we learnt
Change in Pressure of bubble in air -
- wherein
T- Temperature
R- Radius
At bottom surface
Ignoring Surface Tension
Option 1)
11.2 m
Option 2)
8.7 m
Option 3)
9.5 m
Option 4)
10.5 m

p2v2=p1v1---------(1) {ideal gas equation}{inside air bubble}
p2=patm=10*d*g.............{d= density of water}
v2=43*pi*(5r/4)^3
v1=4//3*pi*r^3
p1= p2 + H*d*g= 10*d*g + H*d*g
(1)-------> (10*d*g + H*d*g)4/3*pi*r^3= 10*d*g4/3*pi*(5r/4)^3
==>(10 + H)= 10(5/4)^3
==> H = 10*(125/64) - 10
H=(1250-640)/64= 610/64= 9.5m
