The vessel shown in the figure has two sections. The lower part is a rectangular vessel with area of cross-section $A$ and height $h$. The upper part is a conical vessel of height $h$ with base area $A$ and top area $a$,and the walls of the vessel are inclined at an angle $30^o$ with the vertical. $A$ liquid of density $\rho$ fills both the sections up to a height $2h$. Neglecting atmospheric pressure:

  • A
    The force $F$ exerted by the liquid on the base of the vessel is $2h\rho gA$.
  • B
    The pressure $P$ at the base of the vessel is $2h\rho g$.
  • C
    The weight of the liquid $W$ is greater than the force exerted by the liquid on the base.
  • D
    The walls of the vessel exert a downward force $(F-W)$ on the liquid.

Two identical cylindrical vessels with their bases at the same level, each contains a liquid of density $d$. The height of the liquid in one vessel is $h_1$ and that in the other vessel is $h_2$. The area of either base is $A$. The work done by gravity in equalizing the levels when the two vessels are connected is

In the figure shown,the heavy cylinder (radius $R$) resting on a smooth surface separates two liquids of densities $2\rho$ and $3\rho$. The height '$h$' for the equilibrium of the cylinder must be

$A$ liquid is taken in a long vertical cylindrical vessel and the cylinder is rotated about its vertical axis as shown in the figure. During rotation, the liquid rises along its sides. If the radius of the vessel is $0.05 \,m$ and the speed of rotation is $10 \,rad \,s^{-1}$, then the height difference between the liquid at the centre of the vessel and its sides is $\left(g=10 \,m \,s^{-2}\right)$.

State whether the following statements are True or False:
$(i)$ In incompressible flow,the density of a fluid changes with time and position.
$(ii)$ Non-viscous flow can be a streamline flow.
$(iii)$ In a steady flow,the velocity of the fluid at each point remains identical with time.

The relative humidity on a day,when the partial pressure of water vapour is $0.012 \times 10^5 \, Pa$ at $12^{\circ}C$,is ......... $\%$. (Take the vapour pressure of water at this temperature as $0.016 \times 10^5 \, Pa$.)
