Diameter is 10mm thus radius is 5mm i.e.5×10^-3 m.
Excess presssure for soap bubble is given by dP=4×surface tension divided by radius
So,dP=4×0.04÷5×10^-3
therefore dP=32 N/m^2.
Hope this helps☺

Answer: 32 N/m²
Explanation:
Inside a soap bubble, excess pressure is given by:
ΔP = 4S/R
Where, S is the surface tension and R is the radius of the bubble.
It is given that: S = 0.04 N/m
Diameter of the bubble, d = 10 mm = 0.010 m
Radius of the bubble, R = d/2 = 0.005 m
Thus, ΔP = (4 × 0.04 N/m) / 0.005 m = 32 N/m²
