C$462.5$
c Pressure at the bottom $\mathrm{P}=\left(\mathrm{h}_{1} \mathrm{d}_{1}+\mathrm{h}_{2} \mathrm{d}_{2}\right) \frac{\mathrm{g}}{\mathrm{cm}^{2}}$
$=[250 \times 1+250 \times 0.85]=250[1.85] g$
$=462.5 \mathrm{g}$ $dyne/cm ^{2}$

Four identical beakers contain same amount of water as shown below. Beaker $A$ contains only water. A lead ball is held submerged in the beaker $B$ by string from above. A same sized plastic ball, say a table tennis $(TT)$ ball, is held submerged in beaker $C$ by a string attached to a stand from outside. Beaker $D$ contains same sized $TT$ ball which is held submerged from a string attached to the bottom of the beaker. These beakers (without stand) are placed on weighing pans and register readings $w_{A}, w_{B}, w_{C}$ and $w_{D}$ for $A, B, C$ and $D$, respectively. Effects of the mass and volume of the stand and string are to be neglected.
A hydraulic automobile lift is designed to lift cars with a maximum mass of $3000\, kg$. The area of cross section a of piston carrying the load is $425\, cm ^{2}$. What is the maximum pressure () would smaller piston have to bear ?
The terminal velocity of a copper ball of radius $5\,mm$ falling through a tank of oil at room temperature is $10\,cm\,s ^{-1}$. If the viscosity of oil at room temperature is $0.9\,kg\,m ^{-1} s ^{-1}$, the viscous drag force is :
A cubical block of wood $10 \,cm$ on a side floats at the interface between oil and water with its lower surface horizontal and $4\, cm$ below the interface. The density of oil is $0.6gc{m^{ - 3}}$. The mass of block is ...... $gm$
A hemispherical bowl just floats without sinking in a liquid of density $1.2 × 10^3kg/m^3$. If outer diameter and the density of the bowl are $1 m$ and $2 × 10^4 kg/m^3$ respectively, then the inner diameter of the bowl will be........ $m$
The two thigh bones (femurs), each of cross-sectional area $10\; cm ^{2}$ support the upper part of a human body of mass $40\; kg$. Estimate the average pressure sustained by the femurs.
A spherical ball of radius $1 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~m}$ and density $10^5$ $\mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^3$ falls freely under gravity through a distance $h$ before entering a tank of water, If after entering in water the velocity of the ball does not change, then the value of $h$ is approximately:
(The coefficient of viscosity of water is $9.8 \times 10^{-6}$ $\left.\mathrm{N} \mathrm{s} / \mathrm{m}^2\right)$
A wooden block floating in a bucket of water has $\frac{4}{5}$ of its volume submerged. When certain amount of an oil is poured into the bucket, it is found that the block is just under the oil surface with half of its volume under water and half in oil. The density of oil relative to that of water is
A submarine has a window of area $30 \times 30 \,cm ^2$ on its ceiling and is at a depth of $100 \,m$ below sea level in a sea. If the pressure inside the submarine is maintained at the sea-level atmosphere pressure, then the force acting on the window is ............. $N$ (consider density of sea water $=1.03 \times 10^3 \,kg / m ^3$, acceleration due to gravity $=10 \,m / s ^2$ )
A tank is filled upto a height $h$ with a liquid and is placed on a platform of height h from the ground. To get maximum range ${x_m}$ a small hole is punched at a distance of $y$ from the free surface of the liquid. Then
