2. \(3\times10^4~\text{kg}\)
3. \(5\times10^4~\text{kg}\)

For the figures given below, the correct observation is:
| 1. | pressure at the bottom of the tank (a) is greater than at the bottom of the tank (b). |
| 2. | pressure at the bottom of the tank (a) is lesser than at the bottom of (b). |
| 3. | pressure depends upon the shape of the container. |
| 4. | pressure at the bottom of (a) and (b) are the same. |
A liquid is poured into three vessels of the same base area and equal heights as shown in the figure, then:
| 1. | The maximum force on the base will be for the vessel \(C.\) |
| 2. | The maximum force on the base will be for the vessel \(B.\) |
| 3. | The maximum force on the base will be for the vessel \(A.\) |
| 4. | Force on the base will be equal for all the vessels. |
If pressure at half the depth of a lake is equal to 2/3rd the pressure at the bottom of the lake, then the depth of the lake is:
| 1. | 10 m | 2. | 20 m |
| 3. | 60 m | 4. | 30 m |
A diver is \(10\) m below the surface of the water. The approximate pressure experienced by the diver is:
1. \(10^5\) Pa
2. \(2\times10^5\) Pa
3. \(3\times10^5\) Pa
4. \(4\times 10^5\) Pa
The area of cross-section of the wider tube shown in the figure is \(800~\text{cm}^2.\) If a mass of \(12~\text{kg}\) is placed on the massless piston, then the difference in heights \(h\) of the levels of water in the two tubes will be:
| 1. | \(10~\text{cm}\) | 2. | \(6~\text{cm}\) |
| 3. | \(15~\text{cm}\) | 4. | \(2~\text{cm}\) |
The value of g at a place decreases by 2%. Then, the barometric height of mercury:
| 1. | increases by 2%. | 2. | decreases by 2%. |
| 3. | remains unchanged. | 4. | sometimes increases and sometimes decreases. |
The height of a mercury barometer is \(75 ~\text{cm}\) at sea level and \(50 ~\text{cm}\) at the top of a hill. The ratio of the density of mercury to that of air is \(10^4.\) The height of the hill is:
| 1. | \(250 ~\text m\) | 2. | \(2.5 ~\text {km}\) |
| 3. | \(1.25 ~\text {km}\) | 4. | \(750 ~\text m\) |
A siphon in use is demonstrated in the following figure. The density of the liquid flowing in the siphon is 1.5 gm/cc. The pressure difference between the point P and S will be:
| 1. | 105 N / m | 2. | 2 × 105 N / m |
| 3. | Zero | 4. | Infinity |
A vertical \(\mathrm{U}\)-tube of uniform inner cross-section contains mercury in both its arms. A glycerin (density\(=1.3\) g/cm3) column of length \(10\) cm is introduced into one of its arms. Oil of density \(0.8\) g/cm3 is poured into the other arm until the upper surfaces of the oil and glycerin are at the same horizontal level. The length of the oil column is:
(density of mercury \(=13.6\) g/cm3)
1. \(10.4\) cm
2. \(8.2\) cm
3. \(7.2\) cm
4. \(9.6\) cm
