assuming g = 10 m/s2 , the maximum diameter Dleft
(in m) that lifts a vehicle of mass 1000 kg using a
force of 100 N is (rounded off to two decimal places).

2. The pressure in a pipe at X is to be measured by


an open manometer as shown in figure. Fluid A
is oil with a specific gravity of 0.8 and Fluid B
is mercury with a specific gravity of 13.6. The
absolute pressure at X is ………kN/m2 (round
off to one decimal place).{Assume density of
water as 1000 kg/m3 and acceleration due to
gravity as 9.81 m/s2 and atmospheric pressure
as 101.3 kN/m2}

3. For the system shown in figure calculate the


air pressure PA to make the pressure at N one
third of that at M.

4. A tube of 1mm least count is filled with Mercury. If the pressure is measured in
multiples of 60 Pa, then the inclination oof tube with respect to horizontal is
……….(in degrees)

5. A thin uniform circular tube is kept in a vertical plane. Equal


volumes of two immiscible liquids whose densities are ρ1 and ρ2
fill half of the tube as shown. In equilibrium the radius passing
through the interface makes an angle of 300 with vertical. The
ratio of densities (ρ1/ ρ2) is equal to

6. Two pipelines, one carrying oil (mass density 900 kg/m3)


and the other water are connected to a manometer as shown
in the figure. By what amount the pressure in the water pipe
should be increased so that the mercury levels in both the
limbs of the manometer become equal? (Mass density of
mercury 13550 kg/m3 and g = 9.81 m/s2)

(b) 26.5 kPa
(c) 26.7 kPa
(d) 28.9 kPa

7. Three rigid buckets, shown as in the figures (1), (2) and (3), are of identical heights
and base areas. Further, assume that each of these buckets have negligible mass and are
full of water. The weights of water in these buckets are denoted as W1, W2 and W3
respectively. Also, let the force of water on the base of the bucket be denoted as
F1, F2 and F3 respectively. The option giving an accurate description of the system
physics is

equilibrium state as shown in the figure with a tension in the
string. The arrangement is possible only if

14. A ship weighing 25 MN floats in sea water with its axis vertical. A pendulum 2 m long

16. A uniform wooden rod (specific gravity = 0.6, diameter = 4 cm and length = 8 m) is
immersed in the water and is hinged without friction at point A on the waterline as
shown in the figure. A solid spherical ball made of lead (specific gravity = 11.4) is
attached to the free end of the rod to keep the assembly in static equilibrium inside the
water. For simplicity, assume that the radius of the ball is much smaller than the length
