* Answer The Following Questions In One Sentence.[1 Marks Each] [5]


5. A capillary tube of radius 0.50mm is dipped vertically in a pot of water. Find the
difference between the pressure of the water in the tube 5.0cm below the surface and
the atmospheric pressure. Surface tension of water = 0.075N/m.

6. When the skeleton of an elephant and the skeleton of a mouse are prepared in the
same size, the bones of the elephant are shown thicker than those of the mouse.
Explain why the bones of an elephant are thicker than proportionate. The bones are
expected to withstand the stress due to the weight of the animal.

Frictional force between solids operates even when they do not move with respect to
each other. Do we have viscous force acting between two layers even if there is no
relative motion?

8. Find the increase in pressure required to decrease the volume of a water sample by
0.01%. Bulk modulus of water = 2.1 × 109 N/m2 .

9. A vertical metal cylinder of radius 2cm and length 2m is fixed at the lower end and a
load of 100kg is put on it. Find
a. The stress.
b. The strain and.
c. The compression of the cylinder. Young's modulus of the metal = 2 ×
1011 N/m2 .

10. A steel wire and a copper wire of equal length and equal cross-sectional area are joined
end to end and the combination is subjected to a tension. Find the ratio of.
a. The stresses developed in the two wires.
b. The strains developed. Y of steel = 2 × 1011 N/m2 . Y of copper = 1.3 ×
1011 N/m2 .

11. The lower end of a capillary tube is immersed in mercury. The level of mercury in the
tube is found to be 2cm below the outer level. If the same tube is immersed in water,
upto what height will the water rise in the capillary?

12. It is said that a liquid rises or is depressed in a capillary due to the surface tension. If a
liquid neither rises nor depresses in a capillary, can we conclude that the surface
tension of the liquid is zero?

13. The contact angle between pure water and pure silver is 90º . If a capillary tube made of
silver is dipped at one end in pure water, will the water rise in the capillary?
14. If water in one flask and castor oil in other are violently shaken and kept on a table,
which will come to rest earlier?

solution is formed. A loop of 6.28cm long thread is gently put on the film and the film is
pricked with a needle inside the loop. The thread loop takes the shape of a circle. Find
the tension in the thread. Surface tension of soap solution = 0.030N/m.
16. Two large glass plates are placed vertically and parallel to each other inside a tank of
water with separation between the plates equal to 1mm. Find the rise of water in the
space between the plates. Surface tension of water = 0.075N/m.
17. A barometer is constructed with its tube having radius 1.0mm. Assume that the surface
of mercury in the tube is spherical in shape. If the atmospheric pressure is equal to
76cm of mercury, what will be the height raised in the barometer tube. The contact
angle of mercury with glass = 135º and surface tension of mercury = 0.465N/m. Density
of mercury = 13600kg/m3 .
