Block A in the figure shown here hangs by a cord from dynamometer (spring balance) and is submerged in a liquid C contained in beaker B. The mass of beakerr is 1 kg and the mass of liquid is 1.5kg. The readings of dynamometers and of block A is pulled up out of the liquid?
1. will read 5 kg & will also read 5 kg
2. will read 7.5 kg & will read 2.5 kg
3. will read 2.5 kg & will also read 7.5 kg
4. will read 10 kg & will also read 2.5 kg
A ring is cut from a platinum tube having 8.5cm internal and 8.7 cm extrenal diameter. It is supported horizontally from a pan of a balance so that it comes in contact with the water in glass vessel. If an extra 3.97 gram weight is required to pull it away from water, the durface tension of water is
1. 72.07 dyne per cm
2. 70.80 dyne per cm
3. 65.35 dyne per cm
4. 60.00 dyne per cm

A thin uniform cylindrical shell, closed at both ends, is partially filled with water. It is floating vertically in water in half-submerged state. If is the relative density of the material of the shell with respect to water, then the correct statement is that the shell is
1. More than filled if is less than 0.5
2. More than half filled if is less than 1.0
3. Half filled if is less than 0.5
4. Less than half filled if is less than 0.5
A large tank is filled with water (density= ). A small hole is made at a depth 10m below water surface. The range of water issuing out of the hole is R on ground. What extra p[ressure must be applied on the water surface so that the range become 2R (take 1 atm = Pa and g= 10 m/)
1. a atm
2. 2 atm
3. 4 atm
4. 3 atm
When a block of iron floats in mercury at 0C, a fraction of its volume is submerged, while at 60C, a fraction is seen to be submerged, If the coefficient of volume expansion of iron is and that of mercury is , then the ratio of / can be expressed as
