SECTION A
- A hard wire is broken by bending it repeatedly in
alternating directions. Why?
- How does the boiling point of a liquid vary with
pressure?

- Two balls A and B have radii in the ratio 1 : 4. What
will be the ratio of their terminal velocities in a
liquid?
- Water rises in a capillary tube, whereas mercury
falls in the same tube. Why?
SECTION B
- e breaking force for a wire is F. What will be the
breaking force for
(a) two parallel wires of the same size and
(b) for a single wire of double the thickness? - By how much a rubber string of length
10 m increases in length under its own weight
when suspended vertically? Density of rubber
= 1.5 × 10^3 kg m–3 ; Y = 5 × 10^8 N m–2 ; g = 10 m s–2. - An ideal uid ows through a pipe of circular cross
section with diameters 5 cm and 10 cm as shown in
the gure. Find the ratio of velocities of uid at A
and B. - A small ball of mass m and density ρ is dropped
in a viscous liquid of density ρ 0. Aer some time,
the ball falls with a constant velocity. Calculate the
viscous force on the ball.
