A body is just floating on the surface of a liquid. The density of the body is the same as that of the liquid. The body is slightly pushed down. What will happen to the body?
1. | It will slowly come back to its earlier position |
2. | It will remain submerged, where it was left |
3. | It will sink |
4. | It will come out violently |
A cork is submerged in water by a spring attached to the bottom of a bowl. When the bowl is kept in an elevator moving with acceleration downwards, the length of spring

2. Decreases
3. Remains unchanged
4. None of these

If two pieces of metal when immersed in a liquid have equal upthrust on them, then:
1. | Both pieces must have equal weights |
2. | Both pieces must have equal densities |
3. | Both pieces must have equal volumes |
4. | Both are floating in the same depth |
In which one of the following cases will the liquid flow in a pipe be most streamlined ?
1. Liquid of high viscosity and high density flowing through a pipe of small radius
2. Liquid of high viscosity and low density flowing through a pipe of small radius
3. Liquid of low viscosity and low density flowing through a pipe of large radius
4. Liquid of low viscosity and high density flowing through a pipe of large radius
An incompressible liquid flows through a horizontal tube as shown in the following fig. Then the velocity v of the fluid is
1. 3.0 m/s
2. 1.5 m/s
3. 1.0 m/s
4. 2.25 m/s
The following figure shows the flow of liquid through a horizontal pipe. Three tubes \(A,\) \(B\) and \(C\) are connected to the pipe. The radii of the tubes \(A,\) \(B\) and \(C\) at the junction are respectively \(2\) cm, \(1\) cm and \(2\) cm. It can be said that:
1. | The height of the liquid in the tube \(A\)is maximum. |
2. | The height of the liquid in the tubes \(A\)and \(B\) is the same. |
3. | The height of the liquid in all the three tubes is the same. |
4. | The height of the liquid in the tubes \(A\) and \(C\) is the same. |
