A liquid is contained in a vertical tube of semicircular cross-section (see figure). The contact angle is zero. The forces of surface tension on the curved part and on the flat part are in the ratio:

1. \(1:1\)
2. \(1:2\)
3. \(\pi:2\)
4. \(2: \pi\)
When a capillary tube is dipped into a liquid, the liquid neither rises nor falls in the capillary.
| a. | the surface tension of the liquid must be zero. |
| b. | the contact angle must be \(90^\circ.\) |
| c. | the surface tension may be zero. |
| d. | the contact angle may be \(90^\circ.\) |
Choose the correct option:
| 1. | (a) and (b) |
| 2. | (b) and (c) |
| 3. | (c) and (d) |
| 4. | all of these |
Water is flowing through a long horizontal tube. Let \(P_A\) and \(P_B\) be the pressures at two points \(A\) and \(B\) of the tube.
| 1. | \(P_A\) must be equal to \(P_B\). |
| 2. | \(P_A\) must be greater than \(P_B\). |
| 3. | \(P_A\) must be smaller than \(P_B\). |
| 4. | \(P_A\) = \(P_B\) only if the cross-sectional area at A and B are equal. |
Water enters through end \(A\) with a speed \(v_1\) and leaves through end \(B\) with a speed \(v_2\) of a cylindrical tube AB. The tube is always completely filled with water. In case I the tube is horizontal, in case II it is vertical with the end \(A\) upward and in case III it is vertical with the end \(B\) upward. We have \(v_1=v_2\) for:
1. case I
2. case II
3. case III
4. each one
Equal mass of three liquids are kept in three identical cylindrical vessels \(A\), \(B\) and \(C\). The densities are \(\rho_A,~\rho_B,~\rho_C\) with \(\rho_A<\rho_B<\rho_C\) . The force on the base will be:
| 1. | maximum in vessel \(A\) |
| 2. | maximum in vessel \(B\) |
| 3. | maximum in vessel \(C\) |
| 4. | equal in all the vessels |
