    In the arrangement shown both the vessels $A$ and $B$ are identical but amount of water in $B$ is double of that in $A$. The vessels are closed by identical leak proof pistons at the same height. The pistons are connected to the ends of lever arm. There is no friction between the pistons and the container walls. The system is in equilibrium in the situation shown. Now the valve in the horizontal tube connecting both the vessels is opened. In which direction will the water flow through the tube ?

    The area of cross-section of a large tank is $0.5 \; m ^{2}$. It has a narrow opening near the bottom having area of cross-section $1 \; cm ^{2}$. A load of $25 \; kg$ is applied on the water at the top in the tank. Neglecting the speed of water in the tank, the velocity of the water, coming out of the opening at the time when the height of water level in the tank is $40 \; cm$ above the bottom, will be $\dots \; cms ^{-1}$. $\left[\right.$ Take $\left.g =10 \; ms ^{-2}\right]$

    As shown schematically in the figure, two vessels contain water solutions (at temperature $T$ ) of potassium permanganate $\left( KMnO _4\right)$ of different concentrations $n_1$ and $n_2\left(n_1>n_2\right)$ molecules per unit volume with $\Delta n=\left(n_1-n_2\right) \ll n_1$. When they are connected by a tube of small length $\ell$ and cross-sectional area $S , KMnO _4$ starts to diffuse from the left to the right vessel through the tube. Consider the collection of molecules to behave as dilute ideal gases and the difference in their partial pressure in the two vessels causing the diffusion. The speed $v$ of the molecules is limited by the viscous force $-\beta v$ on each molecule, where $\beta$ is a constant. Neglecting all terms of the order $(\Delta n)^2$, which of the following is/are correct? ( $k_B$ is the Boltzmann constant)-

    $(A)$ the force causing the molecules to move across the tube is $\Delta n k_B T S$

    $(B)$ force balance implies $n_1 \beta v \ell=\Delta n k_B T$

    $(C)$ total number of molecules going across the tube per sec is $\left(\frac{\Delta n}{\ell}\right)\left(\frac{k_B T}{\beta}\right) S$

    $(D)$ rate of molecules getting transferred through the tube does not change with time

    Karman line is a theoretical construct that separates the earth's atmosphere from outer space. It is defined to be the height at which the lift on an aircraft flying at the speed of a polar satellite $(8 \,km / s )$ is equal to its weight. Taking a fighter aircraft of wing area $30 \,m ^2$, and mass $7500 \,kg$, the height of the Karman line above the ground will be in the range .............. $km$ (assume the density of air at height $h$ above ground to be $\rho( h )=1.2 e ^{\frac{ h }{10}} \,kg / m ^3$ where $h$ is in $km$ and the lift force to be $\frac{1}{2} \rho v^2 A$, where $v$ is the speed of the aircraft and $A$ its wing area).
