A drinking straw is dipped in a pan of water to depth d from the surface (see figure below). Now water is sucked into it up to an initial height $h_0$ and then left to oscillate. As a result, its height $y$ from the surface of the water varies periodically. Ignoring damping, the equation for $y$ is ( $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity):
  • A$\ddot{y}+\frac{g}{d} y=0$
  • B$\ddot{y}(y+d)+\frac{g}{d}(y+d)=0$
  • C$\ddot{y}+\frac{\dot{y}^2}{d}+\frac{g}{d}(y+d)=0$
  • D$\ddot{ y }+( y + d )+\dot{ y }^2+ gy =0$

    A train with cross-sectional area $S _{ t }$ is moving with speed $v_t$ inside a long tunnel of cross-sectional area $S _0\left( S _0=4 S _{ t }\right)$. Assume that almost all the air (density $\rho$ ) in front of the train flows back between its sides and the walls of the tunnel. Also, the air flow with respect to the train is steady and laminar. Take the ambient pressure and that inside the train to be $p _0$. If the pressure in the region between the sides of the train and the tunnel walls is $p$, then $p _0- p =\frac{7}{2 N } \rho v_{ t }^2$. The value of $N$ is. . . . .

    A small spherical ball of radius $0.1 \,mm$ and density $10^{4} \,kg m ^{-3}$ falls freely under gravity through a a distance $h$ before entering a tank of water. If after entering the water the velocity of ball does not change and it continue to fall with same constant velocity inside water, then the value of $h$ wil be $m$. (Given $g =10 \,ms ^{-2}$, viscosity of water $=1.0 \times 10^{-5} \,N - sm ^{-2}$ )
