Given below are two statements :
Statement I : Pressure of a fluid is exerted only on a solid surface in contact as the fluid-pressure does not exist everywhere in a still fluid.
Statement II : Excess potential energy of the molecules on the surface of a liquid, when compared to interior, results in surface tension.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
Surface tension of two liquids (having same densities), $T_1$ and $T_2$, are measured using capillary rise method utilizing two tubes with inner radii of $r_1$ and $r_2$ where $r_1 > r_2$. The measured liquid heights in these tubes are $h_1$ and $h_2$ respectively. [Ignore the weight of the liquid above the lowest point of miniscus]. The heights $h_1$ and $h_2$ and surface tensions $T_1$ and $T_2$ satisfy the relation :
An aluminium and steel rods having same lengths and cross-sections are joined to make total length of 120 cm at $30^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. The coefficient of linear expansion of aluminium and steel are $24 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and $1.2 \times 10^{-5} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$, respectively. The length of this composite rod when its temperature is raised to $100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$, is $\_\_\_\_$ cm.
Water flows through a horizontal tube as shown in the figure. The difference in height between the water columns in vertical tubes is 5 cm and the area of cross-sections at $A$ and $B$ are $6 \mathrm{~cm}^2$ and $3 \mathrm{~cm}^2$ respectively. The rate of flow will be $\_\_\_\_$ $\mathrm{cm}^3 / \mathrm{s}$. (take $g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$ )
