In a conical pendulum, a string of length 120 cm is fixed at rigid support and carries a mass
of 150 g at its free end. If the mass is revolved in a horizontal circle of radius 0.2 m around a
vertical axis, calculate tension in the string (g = 9.8 m/s2)
The force of surface tension acts tangentially to the surface whereas the force due to air pressure acts perpendicularly on the surface. How is then the force due to excess pressure inside a bubble balanced by the force due to the surface tension?
A cubical block of ice floating in water has to support a metal piece weighing 0.5 kg. Water can be the minimum edge of the block so that it does not sink in water? Specific gravity of ice = 0.9.
Insect moves over the surface of water because of ______.
Obtain an expression for the surface tension of a liquid by the capillary rise method.
A water drop of radius R' splits into 'n' smaller drops, each of radius 'r'. The work done in the process is ______.
T = surface tension of water
Why is raindrop spherical in nature?
Is surface tension a vector?
A hot air balloon is a sphere of radius 8 m. The air inside is at a temperature of 60°C. How large a mass can the balloon lift when the outside temperature is 20°C? (Assume air is an ideal gas, R = 8.314 J mole–1K–1, 1 atm. = 1.013 × 105 Pa; the membrane tension is 5 Nm–1.)
When an air bubble of radius r rises from the bottom to the surface of a lake, its radius becomes `(5r)/4`. Taking the atmospheric pressure to be equal to the 10 m height of the water column, the depth of the lake would approximately be ______.
(ignore the surface tension and the effect of temperature)
