Solution and Explanation
It does not matter if one uses gauge pressure instead of absolute pressure while applying Bernoulli’s equation. The two points where Bernoulli’s equation is applied should have significantly different atmospheric pressures.

- 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 Δ𝑃 = 144 Pa. Now, the chamber pressure is reduced to \(8𝑃_0/27\) 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 Δ𝑃 in both the cases to be much smaller than the chamber pressure. The new excess pressure Δ𝑃 in Pa is

Bernauli Theorem
In fluid dynamics, Bernoulli's principle states that an increase in the speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in static pressure or a decrease in the fluid's potential energy. The principle is named after Daniel Bernoulli who published it in his book Hydrodynamica in 1738.
