When the system shown in the adjoining figure is in equilibrium and if the areas of cross section of the smaller piston and bigger piston are a and 10 a mass on smaller and bigger pistons are m amd M, then
1. m=M
2. m= 10M
3. M= 10 m
4. M= 100 m
A wooden block, with a coin placed on its top, floats in water as shown in fig. the distance l and h are shown there. After some time the coin falls into the water. Then
1. l decreases and h increases
2. l increases and h decreases
3. Both l and h increase
4. Both l and h decrease
What is the velocity v of a metallic ball of radius r failing in a tank of liquid at the instant when its acceleration is one-half that of a freely falling body? (The densities of metal and of liquid are and respectively, and the viscosity of the liquid is h)

A U-tube od uniform cross section as shown in figure is partially filled with a liquid I. Another liquid II which does not mix with liquid I is poured into one side. It is found that the liquid levels of the two sides of the tube are the same, while the level of liquid I has risen by 2cm. If the specific gravity of liquid I is 1.1 the specific gravity of liquid II must be
1. 1.12
2. 1.1
3. 1.05
4. 1.0
A tube of length h (which is wide enough so that surface tension effects can be neglected) is filled with air and closed at one end is lowered into a tank of mercury to a depth h as shown; so that mercury rises a distance x into the tube. If the mercury barometer also reads 'h', then

Kerosene oil rises up in the wick of a lantern because of
1. diffusion of the oil through the wick
2. surface tension
3. buoyant force of air
4. the gravitational pull of the wick
