A streamlined body falls through air from a height $h$ on the surface of a liquid. If $d$ and $D(D > d) $ represents the densities of the material of the body and liquid respectively, then the time after which the body will be instantaneously at rest, is
d (d) Upthrust -weight of body = apparent weight
$VDg - Vdg = Vda,$
Where $ a = $ retardation of body
$a = \left( {\frac{{D - d}}{d}} \right)\;g$
The velocity gained after fall from $ h$ height in air, $v = \sqrt {2gh} $
Hence, time to come in rest,
$t = \frac{v}{a} = \frac{{\sqrt {2gh} \times d}}{{(D - d)g}} = \sqrt {\frac{{2h}}{g}} \times \frac{d}{{(D - d)}}$

A body having volume $V$ and density $\rho$ is attached to the bottom of a container as shown. Density of the liquid is $d( > \rho )$. Container has a constant upward acceleration $a.$ Tension in the string is
A large tank is filled with water (density $=$ $10^3 $ $kg/m^3$).A small hole is made at a depth $10$ $m$ below water surface. The range of water issuing out of the hole is Ron ground. What extra pressure must be applied on the water surface so that the range becomes $2R $ (take $1$ $atm$ $=$ $10^5$ $Pa$ and $g$ $=$ $10$ $m/s^2):$ ...... $atm$
A vessel containing water is moving with a constant speed towards right along a straight horizontal path. Which of the following diagrams represents the surface of liquid?
A cylindrical vessel filled with water is released on an inclined surface of angle $\theta$ as shown in figure.The friction coefficient of surface with vessel is $\mu( < \tan \theta)$.Then the contact angle made by the surface of water with the incline will be
Water flows steadily through a horizontal pipe of variable cross-section. If the pressure of water is $P$ at a point where flow speed is $v$ , the pressure at another point where the flow speed is $2v$ , is (Take density of water as $\rho $ )
A cork is submerged in water by a spring attached to the bottom of a pail. When the pail is kept in a elevator moving with an acceleration downwards, the spring length
A cylindrical block of area of cross-section $A$ and of material of density $\rho$ is placed in a liquid of density one-third of density of block. The block compresses a spring and compression in the spring is one-third of the length of the block. If acceleration due to gravity is $g$, the spring constant of the spring is:
A fluid container is containing a liquid of density $\rho $ is accelerating upward with acceleration a along the inclined place of inclination $\alpha$ as shown. Then the angle of inclination $ \theta $ of free surface is :
An incompressible fluid flows steadily through a cylindrical pipe which has radius $2r$ at point $A $ and radius $r $ at $B $ further along the flow direction. If the velocity at point $A$ is $v, $ its velocity at point $B$ is
