Assume that a drop of liquid evaporates by decreases in its surface energy, so that its temperature remains unchanged. What should be the minimum radius of the drop for this to be possible ? The surface tension is $$T,$$ density of liquid is $$\rho $$ and $$L$$ is its latent heat of vaporization.

A uniform cylinder of length $$L$$ and mass $$M$$ having cross-sectional area $$A$$ is suspended, with its length vertical, from a fixed point by a mass-less spring such that it is half submerged in a liquid of density $$\sigma $$ at equilibrium position. The extension $${x_0}$$ of the spring when it is in equilibrium is:

What is the minimum energy required to launch a satellite of mass $$m$$ from the surface of a planet of mass $$M$$ and radius $$R$$ in a circular orbit at an altitude of $$2R$$?

A hoop of radius $$r$$ and mass $$m$$ rotating with an angular velocity $${\omega _0}$$ is placed on a rough horizontal surface. The initial velocity of the center of the hoop is zero. What will be the velocity of the center of the hoop when it cases to slip?
