1. In the given U – Tube, one column is of cross-sectional area A, radius r
and the other is of cross-sectional area 9A, and radius 3r, and both are of
uniform bore as shown. A liquid of density ρ fills the U – tube. Find the
height difference between the two
columns if the surface tension is σ.

2. An U-tube is held horizontally on a flat surface.

The two arms of the U-tube have cross- sectional
areas of A and 3A. Using a hose pipe, water of
density ρ is pushed into one arm (of cross-section
3A
area A) of the U-tube with velocity v0. Find the
force F that must be exerted on the other side of the U-
tube to hold it in place in its original position.

3. A big tub is filled with water. A small hole is made at the

bottom at a height h=8cm from the top level of water in the
vessel as shown. What is the velocity of efflux?

5. A container is filled with water upto a height of 24 m as shown

in figure. At what height from the bottom of the
container should we make a hole on the vertical side of the 24m
container, so as to get maximum range? water

atm = 105 N/m2), then the velocity of water flowing from hole is

(A) 20 m/s (B) 30 m/s (C) 40 m/s (D)25 m/s

7. A cylinder containing water stands on a table of height H. A small hole is punched in the side
of cylinder at its base. The stream of water strikes the ground at a horizontal distance R from
the table. Then the depth of water in the cylinder is
(A) (B) (C) (D)

8. A container is filled with water up to a height of 40 cm. It is

placed on a stool of height 20 cm from the ground. At what 40 cm
point from the bottom of the container should we make a hole water
on the vertical side of the container, so as to get the maximum
range? 20cm
