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?

Two pieces of metal when immersed in a liquid have equal upthrust on them; then

(2) Both pieces must have equal densities

(3) Both pieces must have equal volumes

(4) Both are floating to the same depth

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:

The velocity of kerosene oil in a horizontal pipe is \(5 ~\text{m/s}.\) If \(g = 10 ~\text{m/s} ^2 ,\) then the velocity head of oil will be:
1. \(1.25 ~\text m\)
2. \(12.5 ~\text m\)
3. \(0.125 ~\text m\)       
4. \(125 ~\text m\)

In the following fig. is shown 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 the

(a) Height of the liquid in the tube A is maximum

(b) Height of the liquid in the tubes A and B is the same

(c) Height of the liquid in all the three tubes is the same

(d) Height of the liquid in the tubes A and C is the same
