    There is an air bubble of radius 1.0 mm1.0\text{ }mm in a liquid of surface tension 0.075Nm−10.075Nm^{- 1} and density 1000 kg1000\text{ }kg m−3m^{- 3} at a depth of 10 cm10\text{ }cm below the free surface. The amount by which the pressure inside the bubble is greater than the atmospheric pressure is _____Pa (g=10 ms−2)\left( g = 10{\text{ }ms}^{- 2} \right)
