Assume that the displacement(s) of air is proportional to the pressure difference ($$\Delta $$p) created by a sound wave. Displacement (s) further depends on the speed of sound (v), density of air ($$\rho $$) and the frequency (f). If $$\Delta $$p ~ 10 Pa, v ~ 300 m/s, $$\rho $$ ~ 1 kg/m³ and f ~ 1000 Hz, then s will be of the order of (take the multiplicative constant to be 1) :

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).
