Water wets the walls of its glass container due to the fact that
cohesive force is greater than adhesive force
cohesive force is equal to the adhesive force
adhesive force is greater than the cohesive force
cohesive and adhesive forces form action-reaction pair

Two soap bubbles A & B are kept in a closed chamber where the air is maintained at pressure 8 N/m2 . The radii of bubbles A & B are 2cm and 4cm, respectively. Surface tension of the soap water used to make bubbles is 0.04 N/m. If nA and nB are the number of moles of air in bubbles A and B, respectively, then = ?[Neglect the effect of gravity]

A wooden block, with a coin placed on its top, floats in water as shown in the figure. The distances h and l are shown there. After sometime, the coin falls into the water. Then
both l and h increase
both l and h decrease
l decreases and h increases
l increases and h decreases
