Q11
A small spherical ball of radius rr, falling through a viscous medium of negligible density has terminal velocity 'vv'. Another ball of the same mass but of radius 2r2 r, falling through the same viscous medium will have terminal velocity:
A 4v4 \mathrm{v}
B 2 V2 \mathrm{~V}
C v4\dfrac{v}{4}
D v2\dfrac{\mathrm{v}}{2}
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Since density is negligible hence Buoyancy force will be negligible At terminal velocity.

Mg=6πηrv\mathrm{Mg} =6 \pi \eta \mathrm{rv}
V1r\mathrm{V} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{r}} \quad

(as mass is constant) Now,

vv=rr\frac{\mathrm{v}}{\mathrm{v}^{\prime}}=\frac{\mathrm{r}^{\prime}}{\mathrm{r}}
r=2rr^{\prime}=2 \mathrm{r}

So,

v=v2v^{\prime}=\frac{v}{2}
Q12
Given below are two statements: Statement I : If a capillary tube is immersed first in cold water and then in hot water, the height of capillary rise will be smaller in hot water. Statement II : If a capillary tube is immersed first in cold water and then in hot water, the height of capillary rise will be smaller in cold water. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate from the options given below
A Both Statement I and Statement II are false
B Both Statement I and Statement II are true
C Statement I is true but Statement II is false
D Statement I is false but Statement II is true
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Surface tension will be less as temperature increases

h=2 Tcosθρgr\mathrm{h}=\frac{2 \mathrm{~T} \cos \theta}{\rho \mathrm{gr}}

Height of capillary rise will be smaller in hot water and larger in cold water.

Q13
A spherical ball of radius 1×104 m1 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~m} and density 105 kg/m310^5 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^3 falls freely under gravity through a distance hh before entering a tank of water, If after entering in water the velocity of the ball does not change, then the value of hh is approximately: (The coefficient of viscosity of water is 9.8×106 N s/m29.8 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{~s} / \mathrm{m}^2)
A 2518 m
B 2396 m
C 2249 m
D 2296 m
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

To solve this problem, we can use the concepts of terminal velocity and the forces acting on the spherical ball.

First, let's analyze the situation step-by-step.

When the ball falls freely under gravity, it achieves a terminal velocity

vtv_t

in water.

This terminal velocity is reached when the gravitational force is balanced by the drag force and the buoyant force in the water.

The forces acting on the ball are: 1.

Gravitational Force:

Fg=mgF_g = mg

2. Buoyant Force:

Fb=ρwaterVgF_b = \rho_{\text{water}} V g

3. Drag Force:

Fd=6πηrvtF_d = 6 \pi \eta r v_t

Where,

mm

is the mass of the ball.

gg

is the acceleration due to gravity (

9.8m/s29.8 \, \mathrm{m/s^2}

).

ρwater\rho_{\text{water}}

is the density of water (

1000kg/m31000 \, \mathrm{kg/m^3}

).

VV

is the volume of the ball (

43πr3\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

). η\eta is the coefficient of viscosity of water (

9.8×106Ns/m29.8 \times 10^{-6} \, \mathrm{Ns/m^2}

).

rr

is the radius of the ball (

1×104m1 \times 10^{-4} \, \mathrm{m}

).

vtv_t

is the terminal velocity. Using the equilibrium condition at terminal velocity:

Fg=Fb+FdF_g = F_b + F_d
mg=ρwaterVg+6πηrvtmg = \rho_{\text{water}} V g + 6 \pi \eta r v_t

First, compute the mass of the ball:

m=ρball×V=ρball×43πr3m = \rho_{\text{ball}} \times V = \rho_{\text{ball}} \times \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3
m=105kg/m3×43π(1×104m)3m = 10^5 \, \mathrm{kg/m^3} \times \frac{4}{3} \pi (1 \times 10^{-4} \, \mathrm{m})^3
m=105kg/m3×43π×1012m3m = 10^5 \,\mathrm{kg/m^3} \times \frac{4}{3} \pi \times 10^{-12} \,\mathrm{m^3}
m=43π×107kgm = \frac{4}{3} \pi \times 10^{-7} \, \mathrm{kg}

Next, solve for the terminal velocity

vtv_t

using the equilibrium equation:

mg=ρwater43πr3g+6πηrvtmg = \rho_{\text{water}} \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 g + 6 \pi \eta r v_t
vt=mgρwater43πr3g6πηrv_t = \frac{mg - \rho_{\text{water}} \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 g}{6 \pi \eta r}
vt=43π×107×9.81000×43π(1×104)3×9.86π×9.8×106×104v_t = \frac{\frac{4}{3} \pi \times 10^{-7} \times 9.8 - 1000 \times \frac{4}{3} \pi (1 \times 10^{-4})^3 \times 9.8}{6 \pi \times 9.8 \times 10^{-6} \times 10^{-4}}
vt=43π×107×9.81000×43π×1012×9.86π×9.8×1010v_t = \frac{\frac{4}{3} \pi \times 10^{-7} \times 9.8 - 1000 \times \frac{4}{3} \pi \times 10^{-12} \times 9.8}{6 \pi \times 9.8 \times 10^{-10}}
vt=43π×9.8×107(1105)6π×9.8×1010v_t = \frac{\frac{4}{3} \pi \times 9.8 \times 10^{-7} (1 - 10^{-5})}{6 \pi \times 9.8 \times 10^{-10}}
vt=43×1076×1010v_t = \frac{\frac{4}{3} \times 10^{-7}}{6 \times 10^{-10}}
vt=418×103m/sv_t = \frac{4}{18} \times 10^3 \, \mathrm{m/s}
vt222.22m/sv_t \approx 222.22 \, \mathrm{m/s}

The height

hh

required to reach this terminal velocity while the ball falls freely under gravity can be found using the kinematic equation:

vt=2ghv_t = \sqrt{2gh}
h=vt22gh = \frac{v_t^2}{2g}
h=(222.22)22×9.8h = \frac{(222.22)^2}{2 \times 9.8}
h=49328.8819.6h = \frac{49328.88}{19.6}
h2517.8mh \approx 2517.8 \, \mathrm{m}

So, the closest value of

hh

is approximately: Option A: 2518 m.

Q16
The elastic limit of brass is 379 MPa. What should be the minimum diameter of a brass rod if it is to support a 400 N load without exceeding its elastic limit?
A 1.16 mm
B 1.36 mm
C 1.00 mm
D 0.90 mm
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution
400π4d2=379×106{{400} \over {{\pi \over 4}{d^2}}} = 379 \times {10^6}
d2=4×400×106π×379=0.336×106×4{d^2} = {{4 \times 400 \times {{10}^{ - 6}}} \over {\pi \times 379}} = 0.336 \times {10^{ - 6}} \times 4
d=20.336×103M1.16mmd = 2\sqrt {0.336} \times {10^{ - 3}}M \simeq 1.16\,mm
Q17
If the length of a wire is made double and radius is halved of its respective values. Then, the Young's modulus of the material of the wire will :
A remain same
B become 8 times its initial value
C become 14\dfrac{1}{4} of its initial value
D become 4 times its initial value
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Young's modulus of matter depends on material of wire and is independent of the dimensions of the wire.

As the material remains same so Young's modulus also remain same.

Q18
Young's modules of material of a wire of length 'LL' and cross-sectional area AA is YY. If the length of the wire is doubled and cross-sectional area is halved then Young's modules will be :
A 4 Y
B 2 Y
C Y4\mathrm{\dfrac{Y}{4}}
D Y
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Young's modulus depends on the material not length and cross sectional area. So young's modulus remains same.

Q19
When an air bubble of radius r rises from the bottom to the surface of a lake its radius becomes 5r4.{{5r} \over 4}. Taking the atmospheric pressure to be equal to 10 m height of water column, the depth of the lake would approximately be (ignore the surface tension and the effect of temperature) :
A 11.2 m
B 8.7 m
C 9.5 m
D 10.5 m
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Given, bubble of radius r rises from bottom of lake.

The radius of bubble at top becomes 5r/4.

Therefore, pressure in bubble at bottom is

P1=P0+ρgh+4Tr{P_1} = {P_0} + \rho gh + {{4T} \over r}

Pressure in bubble at top is

P2=P0+4T5r/4{P_2} = {P_0} + {{4T} \over {5r/4}}

Now, we know

P1V1=P2V2{P_1}{V_1} = {P_2}{V_2}

, therefore,

(P0+ρgh+4T4)4π3r3=(P0+4T5r/4)4π3(5r4)3\left( {{P_0} + \rho gh + {{4T} \over 4}} \right){{4\pi } \over 3}{r^3} = \left( {{P_0} + {{4T} \over {5r/4}}} \right){{4\pi } \over 3}{\left( {{{5r} \over 4}} \right)^3}
P0+ρhg+4Tr=(P0+4T×45r)12564{P_0} + \rho hg + {{4T} \over r} = \left( {{P_0} + {{4T \times 4} \over {5r}}} \right){{125} \over {64}}

Now given P0 = 10ρ\rhog, therefore,

10ρg+ρgh+4Tr=12564×10ρg+16T5r×1256410\rho g + \rho gh + {{4T} \over r} = {{125} \over {64}} \times 10\rho g + {{16T} \over {5r}} \times {{125} \over {64}}

Neglecting effect of temperature, we get

10ρg+ρgh=12564×10ρg10\rho g + \rho gh = {{125} \over {64}} \times 10\rho g
10+h=12564×10h=12506410=9.53125m\Rightarrow 10 + h = {{125} \over {64}} \times 10 \Rightarrow h = {{1250} \over {64}} - 10 = 9.53125\,m

\Rightarrow h \sim 9.5 m
