Two vessels $A$ and $B$ have the same base area and contain water to the same height, but the mass of water in $A$ is four times that in $B$. The ratio of the liquid thrust at the base of $A$ to that at the base of $B$ is

The thrust due to any liquid at the bottom of the vessel is only a function of its base area.
since, in the given figure, both the vessels have the same base area therefore, they will have an equal thrust due to liquid.
Hence, the ratio of the thrusts is equal to $1: 1$

The diameter of an air bubble which was initially $2\,mm$, rises steadily through a solution of density $1750\,kg\,m\,m ^{-3}$ at the rate of $0.35\,cms ^{-1}$. The coefficient of viscosity of the solution is poise (in nearest integer). (the density of air is negligible).
A ball is made of a material of density $\rho$ where $\rho_{oil} < \rho < \rho_{water}$ with $\rho_{oil}$ and $\rho_{water}$ representing the densities of oil and water, respectively. The oil and water are immiscible. If the above ball is in equilibrium in a mixture of this oil and water, which of the following pictures represents its equilibrium position?
The height to which a cylindrical vessel be filled with a homogeneous liquid, to make the average force with which the liquid presses the side of the vessel equal to the force exerted by the liquid on the bottom of the vessel, is equal to
A tank $5\, m$ high is half-filled with water and then is filled to the top with oil of density $0.85\, g/cm^3$. The pressure at the bottom of the tank, due to these liquids is ....... $g\, dyne/cm^2$
Three capillaries of length $L, \frac{L}{2}$ and $\frac{L}{3}$ are connected in series. Their radii are $r, \frac{r}{2}$ and $\frac{r}{3}$ respectively. Then if stream-line flow is to be maintained and the pressure across the first capillary is $P$, then ............
A square plate of $0.1 \;m$ side moves parallel to a second plate with a velocity of $ 0.1\; m/s$, both plates being immersed in water. If the viscous force is $0.002\; N$ and the coefficient of viscosity is $ 0.01 $ poise, distance between the plates in $m$ is
An open cubical tank was initially fully filled with water. When the tank was accelerated on a horizontal plane along one of its side it was found that one third of volume of water spilled out. The acceleration was
In making an alloy, a substance of specific gravity ${s_1}$ and mass ${m_1}$ is mixed with another substance of specific gravity ${s_2}$ and mass ${m_2}$; then the specific gravity of the alloy is
