Two narrow bores of diameter 5.0 mm and 8.0 mm are joined together to form a U-shaped tube open at both ends. If this U-tube contains water, what is the difference in the level of two limbs of the tube. [Take surface tension of water T = 7.3 $$\times$$ 10^$$-$$2 Nm^$$-$$1, angle of contact = 0, g = 10 ms² and density of water = 1.0 $$\times$$ 10³ kg m^$$-$$3]

A raindrop with radius R = 0.2 mm falls from a cloud at a height h = 2000 m above the ground. Assume that the drop is spherical throughout its fall and the force of buoyance may be neglected, then the terminal speed attained by the raindrop is :

[Density of water f_w = 1000 kg m^$$-$$3 and Density of air f_a = 1.2 kg m^$$-$$3, g = 10 m/s², Coefficient of viscosity of air = 1.8 $$\times$$ 10^$$-$$5 Nsm^$$-$$2]

A light cylindrical vessel is kept on a horizontal surface. Area of base is A. A hole of cross-sectional area 'a' is made just at its bottom side. The minimum coefficient of friction necessary to prevent sliding the vessel due to the impact force of the emerging liquid is (a < < A) :

A body takes 4 min. to cool from 61$$^\circ$$ C to 59$$^\circ$$ C. If the temperature of the surroundings is 30$$^\circ$$ C, the time taken by the body to cool from 51$$^\circ$$ C to 49$$^\circ$$ C is :
