A capillary tube of area of cross-section A is dipped in water vertically. The amount of heat evolved as the water rises in the capillary tube up to height h is: (The density of water is $\rho$)

  1. $\dfrac{A\rho gh^2}{2}$

  2. $Agh^2\rho$

  3. $2Agh^2\rho$

  4. None of these


Correct Option: A

Viscous force is somewhat like friction as it opposes, the motion and is non-conservative but not exactly so, because

  1. It is velocity dependent while friction is not

  2. It is velocity independent while friction is not

  3. It is temperature dependent while friction is not

  4. It is independent of area is like surface tension while friction is dependent


Correct Option: A,C
Explanation:

Using the relation $\tau=\mu\displaystyle\frac{du}{dy}$ we see that viscosity is velocity dependent. Also viscosity decreases with increasing temperature. Thus A and C are correct.

A liquid flows between two parallel plates along the x-axis. The difference between the velocity of two  layers separated by the distance $dy$ is $dv$. If $A$ is the area of each plate, then Newton's law of viscosity may be written as:

  1. $F=-\eta A\dfrac{dv}{dx}$

  2. $F=+\eta A\dfrac{dv}{dx}$

  3. $F=-\eta A\dfrac{dv}{dy}$

  4. $F=+\eta A\dfrac{dv}{dy}$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

The Newton's viscous force acting between two liquid surfaces with relative velocity $dv$ and distance $dy$ between the layers is given as $-\eta A\dfrac{dv}{dy}$

If the shearing stress between the horizontal layers of water in a river is $1.5 mN/ m^{2}$ and $\eta  _{water}= 1\times10^{-3}Pa-s$ , The velocity gradient is:

  1. $1.5$

  2. $3$

  3. $0.7$

  4. $1$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Shearing stress  $=\eta \dfrac{dv}{dy}=1.5 \times 10^{-3} N /m^{2}$


$\Rightarrow 1 \times 10^{-3} \dfrac{dv}{dy}=1.5 \times 10^{-3}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{dv}{dy}=1.5 \ s^{-1}$

An air bubble of radius $1 mm$ moves up with uniform velocity of $0.109ms^{-1}$ in a liquid column of density $14.7 \times 10^{3} kg/m^{3}$, then coefficient of viscosity will be ($g = 10ms^{-2}$)

  1. $1.3 Pa- s$

  2. $300 Pa -s$

  3. $15 Pa- s$

  4. $150 Pa- s$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

If the bubble is moving up with uniform velocity, the frictional force acting downwards is equal to the buoyant force acting upwards.

$\implies V\rho g=6\pi\eta rv$
$\implies \eta=\dfrac{V\rho g}{6\pi rv}$
$=0.3Pa.s$

The space between two large horizontal metal plates 6 cm apart, is filled with 
liquid of viscosity 0.8 $N/m^2.$ A thin plate of surface area 0.01 $m^2$ is moved  parallel to the length of the plate such that the plate is at a distance of 2 m  from one of the plates and 4 cm from the other. If the plate moves with a  constant speed of 1 m $s^{-1}$, then

  1. the layer of the fluid, which is having the maximum velocity, is lying mid-way between the plates

  2. the layers of the fluid, which is in contact with the moving plate, is having the maximum velocity

  3. the layer of the fluid, which is in Contact with the moving plate and is on the side of farther plate, is moving with the maximum velocity

  4. the layer of the fluid, which is in contact with the moving plant and is on the Side of nearer plate, is moving with the maximum velocity


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The profile of the velocity of fluid as shown in the figure The velocity of the layer of fluid ,which in contact with metal plates (fixed), is zero. As we move towards the centre from either plate the velocity of the layer of fluid increases and it becomes maximum at the location of moving plate. This maximum value is same as that of the velocity of plate

A solid ball of density half that of water falls freely under gravity from a height of 19.6 m and then enters the water. Up to what depth will the ball go? How much time will it take to come again to the water surface. Neglect air resistance and viscosity effects in water. ($
