Multiple choice physics option b: engineering physics buoyancy floatation fluid pressure

A box is divided into two equal compartments by a thin partition and they are filled with gases $  P  $and $  Q  $ respectively. The two compartments have a pressure of 250 torr each. The pressure after removing the partition will be equal to

  1. $125 torr$
  2. $2.5 torr$
  3. $250 torr$
  4. $500 torr$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

When the partition is removed, the total volume doubles (V + V = 2V). Since the pressure in each was 250 torr, the total moles are proportional to 250*V + 250*V = 500*V. New pressure = 500V / 2V = 250 torr.

Two containers $A$ and $B$ are partly filled with water and closed. The volume of $A$ is twice that of $B$ and it contains half the amount of water in $B$. If both are at the same temperature the water vapour in the containers will have pressure in the ratio of

  1. $1:2$
  2. $1:1$
  3. $2:1$
  4. $4:1$

A large open tank has two holes in the wall. One is a square hole of side L at a depth y from the top and the other is a circular hole of radius R at a depth 4y from the top. When the tank is completely filled with water. The quater of water flowing out per second from both holes are the same. Then radius R, is equal to :

  1. $\dfrac { L }{ \sqrt { 2\pi } } $
  2. $2\pi L$
  3. L

  4. $\dfrac { L }{ 2\pi } $

The hydrostatic pressure on a diver $100m$ below the surface of an ocean is

  1. $1$ atm
  2. $2$ atm
  3. $11$ atm
  4. $20$ atm
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Hydrostatic pressure P = P_atm + rho*g*h. P_atm = 1 atm. rho*g*h = 1000 * 10 * 100 = 10^6 Pa. Since 1 atm approx 10^5 Pa, rho*g*h = 10 atm. Total pressure = 1 + 10 = 11 atm.

  2. $ \left( \frac { 2 }{ 3 } \right) H $
  3. $ \left( \frac { 1 }{ 4 } \right) H $
  4. $ \left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) H $

Mark out the correct statement(s)

  1. Net force acting on the base of the vessel > weight of the liquid inside the vessel

  2. Net force acting on the base of the vessel $=$ weight of the liquid inside the vessel
  3. Net pressure force acting on the liquid $=$ weight of the vessel
  4. Both (a) and (c) are correct

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Weight of the liquid inside the vessel,

$W=\rho(A _1\times \dfrac{5}{100}+A _2\times \dfrac{1}{100})g=1N$
So, $F>W$
Net force on the liquid is zero.
