The limbs of a $U$-tube are lowered into vessels $A$ and $B$,where vessel $A$ contains water. Some air is pumped out through the top of the tube at $C$. The liquids in the left limb (in vessel $A$) and the right limb (in vessel $B$) rise to heights of $10\, cm$ and $12\, cm$ respectively above the free surfaces of the liquids in the vessels. The density of liquid $B$ is ........ $g/cm^3$.

  • A
    $0.75$
  • B
    $0.83$
  • C
    $1.2$
  • D
    $0.25$

In Guericke's experiment to show the effect of atmospheric pressure,two copper hemispheres were tightly fitted to each other to form a hollow sphere and the air from the sphere was pumped out to create a vacuum inside. If the radius of each hemisphere is $R$ and the atmospheric pressure is $p$,then the minimum force required (when the two hemispheres are pulled apart by the same force) to separate the hemispheres is

When an air bubble of radius $r$ rises from the bottom to the surface of a lake,its radius becomes $\frac{5r}{4}$. If the atmospheric pressure is equal to the pressure exerted by a $10 \ m$ height of water column,the temperature is constant,and surface tension is neglected,what is the depth of the lake (in $m$)?

$A$ thin uniform tube is bent into a circle of radius $r$ in the vertical plane. Equal volumes of two immiscible liquids,whose densities are ${\rho _1}$ and ${\rho _2}$ $({\rho _1} > {\rho _2})$,fill half the circle. The angle $\theta$ between the radius vector passing through the common interface and the vertical is

Three liquids of equal masses are taken in three identical cubical vessels $A, B$ and $C$. Their densities are $\rho_{A}, \rho_{B}$ and $\rho_{C}$. The force exerted by the liquid on the base of the cubical vessel is

In the arrangement shown, both the vessels $A$ and $B$ are identical, but the amount of water in $B$ is double that in $A$. The vessels are closed by identical leak-proof pistons at the same height. The pistons are connected to the ends of a lever arm. There is no friction between the pistons and the container walls. The system is in equilibrium in the situation shown. Now, the valve in the horizontal tube connecting both the vessels is opened. In which direction will the water flow through the tube?
