MCQ
An elevator weighing $6000\,kg$ is pulled upward by a cable with an acceleration of $5\,ms^{-2}$. Taking $g$ to be $10\,ms^{-2}$. Then the tension in the cable is ............ $N$
  • A
    $6000$
  • B
    $9000$
  • C
    $60000$
  • $90000$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$90000$
d
$T = mg + ma$

   $= 6000 (10 + 5) = 90,000\, N$

A spherical soap bubble inside an air chamber at pressure $P_0=10^5 Pa$ has a certain radius so that the excess pressure inside the bubble is $\Delta P=144 Pa$. Now, the chamber pressure is reduced to $8 P_0 / 27$ so that the bubble radius and its excess pressure change. In this process, all the temperatures remain unchanged. Assume air to be an ideal gas and the excess pressure $\Delta P$ in both the cases to be much smaller than the chamber pressure. The new excess pressure $\Delta P$ in $Pa$ is
