As shown schematically in the figure, two vessels contain water solutions (at temperature T) of
potassium permanganate (KMnO4) of different concentrations n1 and n2 (n1 > n2) molecules per
unit volume with $\Delta $n = (n1 − n2) << n1. When they are connected by a tube of small length l and
cross-sectional area S, KMnO4 starts to diffuse from the left to the right vessel through the tube.
Consider the collection of molecules to behave as dilute ideal gases and the difference in their partial
pressure in the two vessels causing the diffusion. The speed v of the molecules is limited by the
viscous force −$\beta $v on each molecule, where $\beta $ is a constant. Neglecting all terms of the order ($\Delta $n)2,

the density of air with height h from the ground is
$\rho \left( h \right) = {\rho _0}{e^{ - {h \over {{h_0}}}}}$, where $\rho $0 = 1.25 kg m−3 and h0 = 6000 m, the value of N is _________.
$\rho \left( h \right) = {\rho _0}{e^{ - {h \over {{h_0}}}}}$, where $\rho $0 = 1.25 kg m−3 and h0 = 6000 m, the value of N is _________.
Correct Answer: 4
Explanation:
Weight = Upthrust
$mg = {F_u} \Rightarrow 480 \times 10 = \rho Vg$
$480 \times 10 = {\rho _0}{e^{ - {h \over {{h_0}}}}} \Rightarrow 480 \times 10 = {\rho _0}{e^{ - {{100} \over {6000}}}}Vg$ .... (i)
$(480 - N \times 1)10 = \rho 'Vg$
$(480 - N)10 = {\rho _0}{e^{ - {{150} \over {6000}}}}Vg$ .... (ii)
Dividing Eq. (i) by Eq. (ii), we get
${{480} \over {480 - N}} = {e^{\left( {{{150 - 100} \over {6000}}} \right)}}$
${{480} \over {480 - N}} = {e^{{{50} \over {6000}}}} \Rightarrow {{480} \over {480 - N}} = {e^{{1 \over {120}}}}$
N = 4
$mg = {F_u} \Rightarrow 480 \times 10 = \rho Vg$
$480 \times 10 = {\rho _0}{e^{ - {h \over {{h_0}}}}} \Rightarrow 480 \times 10 = {\rho _0}{e^{ - {{100} \over {6000}}}}Vg$ .... (i)
$(480 - N \times 1)10 = \rho 'Vg$
$(480 - N)10 = {\rho _0}{e^{ - {{150} \over {6000}}}}Vg$ .... (ii)
Dividing Eq. (i) by Eq. (ii), we get
${{480} \over {480 - N}} = {e^{\left( {{{150 - 100} \over {6000}}} \right)}}$
${{480} \over {480 - N}} = {e^{{{50} \over {6000}}}} \Rightarrow {{480} \over {480 - N}} = {e^{{1 \over {120}}}}$
N = 4

A train with cross-sectional area St
is moving with speed vt
inside a long tunnel of cross-sectional
area S0 (S0 = 4St). Assume that almost all the air (density $\rho $) in front of the train flows back between
its sides and the walls of the tunnel. Also, the air flow with respect to the train is steady and laminar.
Take the ambient pressure and that inside the train to be p0. If the pressure in the region between the
sides of the train and the tunnel walls is p, then
p0 - p = ${7 \over {2N}}\rho v_t^2$. The value of 𝑁 is ________.
p0 - p = ${7 \over {2N}}\rho v_t^2$. The value of 𝑁 is ________.
Correct Answer: 9
Explanation:

Applying Bernoulli's equation,
${p_0} + {1 \over 2}\rho v_1^2 = p + {1 \over 2}\rho {v^2}$
${p_0} - p = {1 \over 2}\rho ({v^2} - v_1^2)$ .... (i)
From equation of continuity,
$4{S_t}{v_t} = v \times 3{S_t}$
$ \Rightarrow v = {4 \over 3}{v_t}$ ..... (ii)
From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
${p_0} - p = {1 \over 2}\rho \left( {{{16} \over 9}v_t^2 - v_t^2} \right) = {1 \over 2}\rho {{7v_t^2} \over 9}$

A cubical solid aluminium (bulk modulus = $ - V{{dP} \over {dV}} = 70GPa$) block has an edge length of 1 m on the surface of the earth. It is kept on the floor of a 5 km deep ocean. Taking the average density of water and the acceleration due to gravity to be 103 kg m-3 and 10 ms-2, respectively, the change in the edge length of the block in mm is _______.
Correct Answer: 0.24
Explanation:
${{dV} \over V} = - {{dp} \over B}$ (where, B = bulk modulus)
$V = {l^3} \Rightarrow {{\Delta V} \over V} = 3{{\Delta l} \over l}$
$3{{\Delta l} \over l} = \left| { - {{\Delta p} \over B}} \right| = {{\rho gh} \over B} \Rightarrow \Delta l = {{\rho ghl} \over {3B}}$
Substituting the given values, we get $\Delta$l = 0.24 mm
$V = {l^3} \Rightarrow {{\Delta V} \over V} = 3{{\Delta l} \over l}$
$3{{\Delta l} \over l} = \left| { - {{\Delta p} \over B}} \right| = {{\rho gh} \over B} \Rightarrow \Delta l = {{\rho ghl} \over {3B}}$
Substituting the given values, we get $\Delta$l = 0.24 mm

When water is filled carefully in a glass, one can fill it to a height h above the rim of the glass due to

water above the rim as a disc of thickness h having semicircular edges, as shown schematically in the
figure. When the pressure of water at the bottom of this disc exceeds what can be withstood due to
the surface tension, the water surface breaks near the rim and water starts flowing from there. If the
density of water, its surface tension and the acceleration

due to gravity are 103 kg m−3 , 0.07 Nm−1 and 10 ms−2 , respectively, the value of h (in mm) is _________.
Correct Answer: 3.74
Explanation:
Pressure at the bottom of disc = Pressure due to surface tension
$\rho gh = T\left( {{1 \over {{R_1}}} + {1 \over {{R_2}}}} \right)$
${R_1} > > > {R_2}$
So, ${1 \over {{R_1}}} < < < {1 \over {{R_2}}}$ and ${R_2} = h/2$
$ \therefore $ $\rho gh = T\left( {{1 \over {{R_1}}} + {1 \over {{R_2}}}} \right) = T\left( {0 + {1 \over {h/2}}} \right)$
${h^2} = {{2T} \over {\rho g}} \Rightarrow h = \sqrt {{{2T} \over {\rho g}}} $
$ \Rightarrow \, = \sqrt {{{2 \times 0.07} \over {{{10}^3} \times 10}}} = \sqrt {{{14 \times 100} \over {{{10}^4} \times 100}}} $

The capillary tube is dipped vertically in water in two different configurations, case I and II as shown in figure. Which of the following option(s) is (are) correct? [Surface tension of water = 0.075 N/m, density of water = 1000 kg/m3, take g = 10 m/s2]


A.
For case I, if the joint is kept at 8 cm above the water surface, the height of water colomn in the tube will be 7.5 cm. (Neglect the weight of the water in the meniscus).

Their other ends are fixed on a ceiling as shown in figure. The angles subtended by copper and steel wires with ceiling are 30$^\circ $ and 60$^\circ $, respectively. If elongation in copper wire is ($\Delta {l_c}$) and elongation in steel wire is ($\Delta {l_s}$), then the ratio ${{\Delta {l_c}} \over {\Delta {l_s}}}$ is .............. .
[Young's modulus for copper and steel are 1 $ \times $ 1011 N/m2 and 2 $ \times $ 1011 N/m2 respectively.]

[Young's modulus for copper and steel are 1 $ \times $ 1011 N/m2 and 2 $ \times $ 1011 N/m2 respectively.]

Correct Answer: 2
Explanation:
${{{T_s}} \over 2} = {T_c}{{\sqrt 3 } \over 2}$
${T_s} = \sqrt 3 {T_c}$
$\Delta l = {{Tl} \over {Ay}}$
$ \therefore $ ${{\Delta {l_c}} \over {\Delta {l_s}}} = \left( {{{{T_c}} \over {{T_s}}}} \right)\left( {{{{l_c}} \over {{l_s}}}} \right)\left( {{{{Y_s}} \over {{Y_c}}}} \right)$
$ = \left( {{1 \over {\sqrt 3 }}} \right)\left( {{{\sqrt 3 } \over 1}} \right)\left( {{{2 \times {{10}^{11}}} \over {1 \times {{10}^{11}}}}} \right) = 2.00$
