$Assertion :$ The buoyant force on a submerged rigid object can be considered to be acting at the centre of mass of the object.
$Reason :$ For a rigid body a force field distributed uniformly through its volume can be considered to be acting at the centre of mass of the body.

There is a circular tube in a vertical plane. Two liquids which do not mix and of densities $d_1$ and $d_2$ are filled in the tube. Each liquid subtends $90^o$ angle at centre. Radius joining their interface makes an angle $\alpha$ with vertical. Ratio $\frac{{{d_1}}}{{{d_2}}}$ is
If $\rho$ is the density and $\eta$ is coefficient of viscosity of fluid which flows with a speed $v$ in the pipe of diameter $d$, the correct formula for Reynolds number $R _{ e }$ is ..............
A vertical $U-$ tube of uniform inner cross section contains mercury in both sides of its arms. A glycerin (density = $1.3 g/cm^3$) column of length $10 $ $cm $ is introduced into one of its arms. Oil of density $0.8 gm/cm^3$ is poured into the other arm until the upper surfaces of the oil and glycerin are in the same horizontal level. Find the length of the oil column ........ $cm$. Density of mercury = $13.6 g/cm^3$
Water is flowing on a horizontal fixed surface, such that its flow velocity varies with $y$ (vertical direction) as $v=k\left(\frac{2 y^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^3}{a^3}\right)$. If coefficient of viscosity for water is $\eta$, what will be shear stress between layers of water at $y=a$.
A cubical block of steel of each side equal to $l$ is floating on mercury in a vessel. The densities of steel and mercury ar $\rho _s$ and $\rho _m$ . The height of the block above the mercury level is given by
A liquid flows in a tube from left to right as shown in figure. ${A_1}$ and ${A_2}$ are the cross-sections of the portions of the tube as shown. Then the ratio of speeds ${v_1}/{v_2}$ will be
The reading of pressure metre attached with a closed pipe is $4.5 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2$. On opening the valve, water starts flowing and the reading of pressure metre falls to $2.0 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2$. The velocity of water is found to be $\sqrt{\mathrm{V}} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$. The value of $\mathrm{V}$ is__________
