Pressure at the bottom of a tank of water is $3P$, where $P$ is atmospheric pressure. If water is drawn out till the level of water is lowered by one fifth, then the pressure at the bottom of the tank is

$3 P=P+h \rho_{w} g \Rightarrow h \rho_{w} g=2 P$
when water is drawn out, the pressure at bottom.
$P^{\prime}=P+\left(h-\frac{h}{5}\right) \rho_{w} g=P+\frac{4}{5} h \rho_{w} g$
$P^{\prime}=P+\frac{4}{5}(2 P)=\frac{13}{5} P$

A rectangular block is $5 cm × 5 cm × 10cm$ in size. The block is floating in water with $ 5 cm $ side vertical. If it floats with $10 cm $ side vertical, what change will occur in the level of water?
In the figure shown, a liquid is flowing through a tube at the rate of $0.1\, m^3/sec$. The tube is branched into two semicircular tubes of cross-sectional area $A/3$ and $2A/3$. The velocity of liquid at $Q$ is ......... $ m/sec$ (The cross-section of the main tube $= A =10^{-2}\, m^2$ and $v_p = 20\, m/sec$)
Three identical vessels are filled to the same height with three different liquids $A, B$ and $C$ $({\rho _A} > {\rho _B} > {\rho _C})$. The pressure at the base will be
We have three beakers $A, B$ and $ C $ containing glycerine, water and kerosene respectively. They are stirred vigorously and placed on a table. The liquid which comes to rest at the earliest is
A piston of cross-section area $100\, cm^2$ is used in a hydraulic press to exert a force of $107\, dynes$ on the water. The cross-sectional area of the other piston which supports an object having a mass $2000 \,kg$. is
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
A sphere is dropped under gravity through a fluid of viscosity $\eta$ . If the average acceleration is half of the initial acceleration, the time to attain the terminal velocity is ($\rho$ = density of sphere ; $r$ = radius)
$A U-$ tube having horizontal arm of length $20$ $cm$, has uniform cross-sectional area $=1\ cm^2$. It is filled with water of volume $60$ $cc$. What volume of a liquid of density $4$ $g/cc$ should be poured from one side into the $U -$ tube so that no water is left in the horizontal arm of the tube ........ $cc$ ?
