A hollow spherical shell at outer radius R floats just submerged under the water surface. The inner radius of the shell is r. If the specific gravity of the shell material is $${{27} \over 8}$$ w.r.t water, the value of r is :

A cube of metal is subjected to a hydrostatic pressure of 4 GPa. The percentage change in the length of the side of the cube is close to :
(Given bulk modulus of metal, B = 8 $$ \times $$ 10¹⁰ Pa)

Two identical cylindrical vessels are kept on the ground and each contain the same liquid of density d. The area of the base of both vessels is S but the height of liquid in one vessel is x₁ and in the other, x₂ . When both cylinders are connected through a pipe of negligible volume very close to the bottom, the liquid flows from one vessel to the other until it comes to equilibrium at a new height. The change in energy of the system in the process is:

A air bubble of radius 1 cm in water has an upward acceleration 9.8 cm s^–2. The density of water is 1 gm cm^–3 and water offers negligible drag force on the bubble. The mass of the bubble is (g = 980 cm/s²).
