    A table tennis ball has radius $(3 / 2) \times 10^{-2} m$ and mass $(22 / 7) \times 10^{-3} kg$. It is slowly pushed down into a swimming pool to a depth of $d=0.7 m$ below the water surface and then released from rest. It emerges from the water surface at speed $v$, without getting wet, and rises up to a height $H$. Which of the following option(s) is (are) correct?

    [Given: $\pi=22 / 7, g=10 ms ^{-2}$, density of water $=1 \times 10^3 kg m ^{-3}$, viscosity of water $=1 \times 10^{-3} Pa$-s.]

    $(A)$ The work done in pushing the ball to the depth $d$ is $0.077 J$.

    $(B)$ If we neglect the viscous force in water, then the speed $v=7 m / s$.

    $(C)$ If we neglect the viscous force in water, then the height $H=1.4 m$.

    $(D)$ The ratio of the magnitudes of the net force excluding the viscous force to the maximum viscous force in water is $500 / 9$.

    For the situation shown in the figure, water flows on the surface of a fixed plate. The
    velocity of water as a function of distance $'y'$ is given as : $u = \alpha \left[ {\frac{y}{h} - 2{{\left( {\frac{y}{h}} \right)}^2}} \right]$ . Determine the magnitude of the shear stress that the water applies at the base of the plate. Coefficient of viscosity is $\eta$

    A machine is blowing spherical soap bubbles of different radii filled with helium gas.It is found that, if the bubbles have a radius smaller than $1\,cm$, then they sink to the floor in still air. Larger bubbles float in the air. Assume that the thickness of the soap film in all bubbles is uniform and equal. Assume that the density of soap solution is same as that of water $\left(=1000 \,kg m ^{-3}\right)$. The density of helium inside the bubbles and air are $0.18 \,kg m ^{-3}$ and $1.23 \,kg m ^{-3}$, respectively. Then, the thickness of the soap film of the bubbles is .......... $\mu m$ (Note $1 \,\mu m =10^{-6} \,m$ )
