Two non-mixing liquids of densities \(\rho\) and \(n\rho\) \((n>1)\) 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 \(rL~(r<1))\) in the denser liquid. The density \(d\) is equal to:
1. \([2+(n+1)r ]\rho\)
2. \([2+(n-1)r] \rho\)
3. \([1+(n-1)r] \rho\)
4. \([1+(n+1)r ]\rho\)
A boat carrying steel balls is floating on the surface of water in a tank. If the balls are thrown into the tank one by one, how will it affect the level of water?
1. | It will remain unchanged |
2. | It will rise |
3. | It will fall |
4. | First it will first rise and then fall |
A candle of diameter \(d\) is floating on a liquid in a cylindrical container of diameter \(D(D>>d)\) as shown in the figure. If it is burning at the rate of \(2~\text{cm/hour}\) then the top of the candle will:
1. | Remain at the same height |
2. | Fall at the rate of \(1~\text{cm/hour}\) |
3. | Fall at the rate of \(2~\text{cm/hour}\) |
4. | Go up at the rate of \(1~\text{cm/hour}\) |
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: | Two bodies of different masses, shapes, and sizes may experience the same thrust when their volumes inside a fluid are equal. |
Statement II: | A soft plastic bag weighs the same when empty or when filled with air at atmospheric pressure. |
1. | Only Statement I is True. |
2. | Only Statement II is True. |
3. | Both Statement I and Statement II are True. |
4. | Both Statement I and Statement II are False. |
