Water rises in a capillary tube upto a height of 10 cm whereas mercury depresses in it by 3.42 cm. If the angle of contact and density of mercury are 135o and 13.6 gm/cc respectively, then the ratio of the surface tension of water and mercury will be :
6.5 : 1
1 : 6.5
1 : 5.6
5.6 : 1
Water from a tap emerges vertically downwards with an initial speed of 1.0 ms-1 . The cross-sectional area of the tap is 10-4 m2. Assume that the pressure is constant throughout the stream of water, and that the flow is steady. The cross-sectional area of the stream 0.15 m below the tap is
