A siphon in use is demonstrated in the following figure. The density of the liquid flowing in siphon is 1.5 gm/cc. The pressure difference between the point P and S will be

1. ${10}^5<mspace\; width="1em"></mspace>\mathrm{N}/\mathrm{m}$                                 

2. $2\times {10}^5<mspace\; width="1em"></mspace>\mathrm{N}/\mathrm{m}$

3. Zero                                       

4. Infinity 

The height of a mercury barometer is 75 cm at sea level and 50 cm at the top of a hill. Ratio of density of mercury to that of air is ${10}^4$. The height of the hill is
1. 250 m                             

2. 2.5 km

3. 1.25 km                           

4. 750 m

Equal masses of water and a liquid of relative density \(2\) are mixed together, then the mixture has a density of:
1. \(\dfrac{2}{3}\)

2. \(\dfrac{4}{3}\)

3. \(\dfrac{3}{2}\)

4. \(3\)

The value of g at a place decreases by 2%. The barometric height of mercury
1. Increases by 2%

2. Decreases by 2%

3. Remains unchanged

4. Sometimes increases and sometimes decreases
 

A barometer kept in a stationary elevator reads \(76~\text{cm}\). If the elevator starts accelerating up, the reading will be:
1. Zero
2. Equal to \(76~\text{cm}\)
3. More than \(76~\text{cm}\)
4. Less than \(76~\text{cm}\)

A beaker containing a liquid is kept inside a big closed jar. If the air inside the jar is continuously pumped out, the pressure in the liquid near the bottom of the beaker will
1. Increase
2. Decrease
3. Remain constant
4. First decrease and then increase

A vertical \(\mathrm{U}\)-tube of uniform inner cross-section contains mercury in both its arms. A glycerin (density\(=1.3\) g/cm³) column of length \(10\) cm is introduced into one of its arms. Oil of density \(0.8\) g/cm³  is poured into the other arm until the upper surfaces of the oil and glycerin are at the same horizontal level. The length of the oil column is:
(density of mercury \(=13.6\) g/cm³)
                       
1. \(10.4\) cm
2. \(8.2\) cm
3. \(7.2\) cm
4. \(9.6\) cm

If two liquids of same masses but densities ${\mathrm{\rho }}_1$ and ${\mathrm{\rho }}_2$ respectively are mixed, then density of mixture is given by

1. $\mathrm{\rho }=\frac{{\mathrm{\rho }}_1+{\mathrm{\rho }}_2}{2}$                             

2. $\mathrm{\rho }=\frac{{\mathrm{\rho }}_1+{\mathrm{\rho }}_2}{2{\mathrm{\rho }}_1{\mathrm{\rho }}_2}$

3. $\mathrm{\rho }=\frac{2{\mathrm{\rho }}_1{\mathrm{\rho }}_2}{{\mathrm{\rho }}_1+{\mathrm{\rho }}_2}$                             

4. $\mathrm{\rho }=\frac{{\mathrm{\rho }}_1{\mathrm{\rho }}_2}{{\mathrm{\rho }}_1+{\mathrm{\rho }}_2}$

For the figures given below, the correct observation is:
              

A metallic block of density 5 gm ${\mathrm{cm}}^{-3}$ and having dimensions 5 cm × 5 cm × 5 cm is weighed in water. Its apparent weight will be

1. 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 gf                           

2. 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 gf

3. 5 × 4 × 4 × 4 gf                           

4. 4 × 5 × 5 × 5 gf
