Two capillary tubes of different diameters are dipped in water. The rise of water is
the same in both tubes
greater in the tube of larger diameter
greater in the tube of smaller diameter
independent of the diameter of the tube
Spheres of iron and lead having same mass are completely immersed in water. Density of lead is more than that of iron. Apparent loss of weight is w1 for iron sphere and w2 for lead sphere, Then is
> 1
= 1
become 0 and 1
= 0
Two solds P and Q float in water. It is observed that P floats with half of its volume immersed and Q floats with rd of its volume is immersed. The ratio of densities of P and Q is
A flow of liquid is streamline, if the Reynold's number is
less than 1000
greater than 1000
between 2000 to 3000
between 4000 to 5000
An ideal fluid flows through a pipe of circular cross-section with diameters 5 cm and 10 cm as shown in the figure. The ratio of velocities of fluid at A and B is
4 : 1
1 : 4
2 : 1
1 : 2
Two non-mixing liquids of densities and n (n >1) are put in a container. The height of each liquid is h. a solid cylinder of length L and density d is put in this container. The cylinder floats with its axis vertical and length pL (p<1) in the denser liquid. The density d is equal to,
{1+(n-1)p}
{1+(n-1)p}
The wind with speed 40 m/s blows parallel to the roof of a house. The area of the roof is 250m2. Assuming that the pressure inside the house is atmospheric pressure, the force exerted by the wind on the roof and the direction of the force will be( pair = 1.2 kg/m3)

A certain number of spherical drops of a liquid of radius r coalesce to form a single drop of radius R and volume V. If T is the surface tension of the liquid, then
Energy = 4VT is released.
Energy = 3VT is absorbed
Energy = 3 VT is released
Energy is neither absorbed nor released.
C.
Energy = 3 VT is released
If the surface area changes, it will change the surface energy also.
When the surface area decreases, it means energy is released ad vice-versa.
Change in surface energy is ... (i)
Let, there be n number of drops initially.
So, ... (ii)
Volume is constant.
So, ... (iii)
From equations (ii) and (iii), we have
Since, R > r, A is negative.
That is, the surface area is decreased.
Hence, energy must be released.
Energy released =
In the above expression, (-)ve sign shows that amount of energy is released.
