A spherical ball is dropped in a long column of a highly viscous liquid. The curve in the graph shown, which represents the speed of the ball (v) as a function of time (t) is

Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).

Assertion (A): The stretching of a spring is determined by the shear modulus of the material of the spring.

Reason (R): A coil spring of copper has more tensile strength than a steel spring of same dimensions.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below

A The terminal velocity of a copper ball of radius 5mm falling through a tank of oil at room temperature is 10cms⁻¹. If the viscosity of oil at room temperature is 0.9kgm⁻¹s⁻¹, the viscous drag force is:

The velocity of a small ball of mass M and density d, when dropped in a container filled with glycerine becomes constant after some time. If the density of glycerine is d/2, then the viscous force acting on the ball will be

A capillary tube of radius r is immersed in water and water rises in it to a height h. The mass of the water in the capillary is 5g. Another capillary tube of radius 2r is immersed in water. The mass of water that will rise in this tube is :

A small hole of area of cross-section 2mm² is present near the bottom of a fully filled open tank of height 2m. Taking g = 10m/s², the rate of flow of water through the open hole would be nearly

A soap bubble, having radius of 1 mm, is blown from a detergent solution having a surface tension of 2.5 × 10⁻²N/m.

The pressure inside the bubble equals at a point Z₀ below the free surface of water in a container. Taking g = 10m/s², density of water = 10³kg/m³, the value of Z₀ is

The stress-strain curves are drawn for two different materials X and Y. It is observed that the ultimate strength point and the fracture point are close to each other for material X but are far apart for material Y. We can say that materials X and Y are likely to be (respectively)

Two wires are made of the same material and have the same volume. The first wire has cross-sectional area A and the second wire has cross-sectional area 3A. If the length of the first wire is increased by ∆l on applying a force F, how much force is needed to stretch the second wire by the same amount?

Two rods A and B of different materials are welded together as shown in figure. Their thermal conductivities are K₁ and K₂ The thermal conductivity of the composite rod will be
