A small drop of water of surface tension S is squeezed between two clean glass plates so that a thin layar of thickness d and area A is formed between them. If the angle of contact is zero, what is the force required to pull the plates apart? |
Answer» An extremely thin layer of a liquid can be consirdered as the collection of large number of hemispherical drops. In the case of a spherical drop, the excess of pressure = ` (2S)/(r )`. But in the case of thin layer of liquid , which is a combination of hemispherical drops, the case of thin layar of liquid, which is a combination of hemispherical drops, the excess pressure is `p=S/e`, where `r= d//2`. Therefore, ` p=(S)/(d//2) = (2S)/(d)` force dure to surface tension pushing the two plates together is `F= p xx A = (2SA)/(d)`. |

In winter, if we touch steel chair , we feel cold but so when touched wooden chair , though both are at the same temperature. Why? |
Answer» We know that steel is nuch better conductor of heat than wood. When we touch the steel chair, heat flows out from hand to the steel chair which in turn is conducted to other part of chair. So, more heat flows from our body to steel chair. Due to it, we feel cold. When we touch the wooden chair, the heat flows from our body to the touched part of wooden chair but heat is not conducted to other part of chair. Hence , less amount of heat flows from our body to wooden chair. that is why, wooden chair does not appear cold. |

The property of a body by virtue of which it tends to regain its original conifguration as soon as the deforming forces applied on the body are removed is called elasticity. Coefficient of elasticity, `E = (stress)/("strain") = (F//a)/(Delta l//l) = (F l)/(pi r^2(Delta l))` The value of E depends upon nature of meterial. A meterial with higher value of E is said to be more elastic. Read the above passage and answer the following question : (i) Which is more elastic steel or rubber ? Why ? (ii) What values of life so you learn from this concept ? |
Answer» Steel is more elastic then rubber. This is because `E prop (1)/((Delta l))` Under a given deforming force `F, (Delta l)_(steel)lt (Delta l)_(rubber) :. E_(steel) gt E_(rubber)` (ii) in day to day life, elasticity corresponds to adjustability of the person, which depends on his nature. From `E =(Strees)/("strain"),` we find, strian ` =(stress)/(E )` For a given stress in life, strain will be minimum when E is maximum. it implies that a person with adjustable//flexible nature will undergo minimum strain(tension) due to stresses (ups and donws) of life. |

(pi(82-P_(j))xx(0.01)^(4))/(8 etaxx80) =(pi(P_(j)-76)(0.02)^(4))/(8 etaxx40)` or `(82-P_(j))=(P_(j)-76)xx32` On solving, `P_(j)=76.18` cm of Hg |

The maximum load that a wire can sustain is W. If the wire is cut to half its value, the maximum load it can sustain is |
Answer» Since breaking load = breaking stress `xx` area, is free from the length of elastic wire, therfore, if the cable is cut to half of its original length, there is no charge in its area of cross section and breaking stree. Hence there is no effect on the maximum load ( breaking load), the cable can support. | |

The stream of water flowing at high speed from a garden hose pipe tends to spread like a fountain when held vertically up, but tends to narrow down when held vertically up, but tends to narrow down when held vertically down. Explain how? |
Answer» As the stream falls, its speed `upsilon` will increase and hence its area of cross-section a will decrease, ac cording to equation of continuity, i.e., `aupsilon = a consta nt`. That is why the stream will become narrow. When the stream will go up, its speed will decrease, hence its area of crosssection will increase, ie. it will become broader and spreads out like a fountain. |

Assume that a drop of liquid evaporates by decreases in its surface energy, so that its temperature remains unchanged. What should be the minimum radius of the drop for this to be possible? The surface tension is T, density of liquid is `rho` and L is its latent heat of vaporization.A. `rho L//S`B. `sqrt(S//rho L)`C. `S//rho L`D. `2S//rho L` |
Answer» Correct Answer - D Conside a liquid drop of radius r. When a layer of lilquid drop of thickness dr is evaporated and temperature remains unchanged, then change in surface energy = change in surface area x surface tensiion `=d(4 pi r^(2))xxS=(8pi r dr)S` Energy required to evaporate the liquid drop layer of thickness dr `=(4pi r^(2))xxS=(4pi r^(2) dr)rho L` The process of evaporation only start if change in surface energy is just sufficient to evaporate the layer of liquid drop. Therefore, `(4pi r^(2) dr)rho L=(8pi r dr)S` or `r=(2S)/(rho L)` |

A certain number of spherical drops of a liquid of radius `r` coalesce to form a single drop of radius `R` and volume `V`. If `T` is the surface tension of the liquid, thenA. Energy `=4 VT [(1)/(r)-(1)/(R)]` is releasedB. Energy `3 VT[(1)/(r)+(1)/(R)]` is absorbedC. Energy `=3 VT[(1)/(r)-(1)/(R)]` is releasedD. Energy is neither relesed nor absorbed. |
Answer» Correct Answer - C Let there be n small drop each of radius r, which when coalesce from a big drop of radius R. Then `V=nxx(4)/(3)pi r^(3) =(4)/(3)pi R^(3)` or `n=(R^(3))/(r^(3))` Energy released = surface tension x decrease in surface area `=T[4pi r^(2)xxn-4pi R^(2)]` `=T[4pi r^(2)xx(R^(3))/(r^(3)) - (4pi R^(3))/(R)]` `=3T[(4)/(3)pi R^(3)xx(1)/(r) - (4)/(3)pi R^(3)xx(1)/(R)]` `=3T[Vxx(1)/(r)-Vxx(1)/(R)] =3VT[(1)/(r) - (1)/(R)]` |
