A man grows into a giant such that his linear dimensions increase by a factor of 9. Assuming that his density remains same, the stress in the leg will change by a factor of :

A bottle has an opening of radius a and length b. A cork of length b and radius (a + $$\Delta $$a) where ($$\Delta $$a < < a) is compressed to fit into the opening completely (See figure). If the bulk modulus of cork is B and frictional coefficient between the bottle and cork is $$\mu $$ then the force needed to push the cork into the bottle is :

A thin 1 m long rod has a radius of 5 mm. A force of 50 $$\pi $$kN is applied at one end to determine its Young’s modulus. Assume that the force is exactly known. If the least count in the measurement of all lengths is 0.01 mm, which of the following statements is false ?

Consider a water jar of radius R that has water filled up to height H and is kept on astand of height h (see figure). Through a hole of radius r (r << R) at its bottom, the water leaks out and the stream of water coming down towards the ground has a shape like a funnel as shown in the figure. If the radius of the cross-section of water stream when it hits the ground is x. Then :
