According to the principle of buoyancy a body totally or partially immersed in a fluid will be lifted up by a force equal to the weight of the body weight of the fluid displaced by the body less than the weight of the body more than the weight of the body TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Mercury is often used in barometer because it is the best liquid the height of barometer will be less its vapour pressure is so low that it may be neglected both (B) and (C) TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Select the correct statement Local atmospheric pressure is always below standard atmospheric pressure Standard atmospheric pressure is the mean local atmospheric pressure a* sea level Local atmospheric pressure depends upon elevation of locality only A barometer reads the difference be-tween local and standard atmospheric pressure TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
A fluid is said to be ideal, if it is inviscous and compressible inviscous incompressible inviscous and incompressible TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
A ship whose hull length is 100 m is to travel at 10 m/sec. For dynamic similarity, at what velocity should a 1:25 model be towed through water ? 2 m/sec 25 m/sec 50 m/sec 10 m/sec TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Flow at constant rate through a tapering pipe is i) steady flow ii) uniform flow iii) unsteady flow iv) non-uniform flow The correct answer is (i) and (ii) (i)and(iv) (ii) and (iii) (ii) and (iv) TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
The region between the separation streamline and the boundary surface of the solid body is known as lift boundary layer drag wake TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Two dimensional flow occurs when the magnitude and direction of the velocity do not change from point to point in the fluid the velocity of successive fluid par-ticles, at any point, is the same at suc-cessive periods of time the direction and magnitude of the velocity at all points are identical the fluid particles move in plane or parallel planes and the streamline pat-terns are identical in each plane TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
The line of action of the buoyant force acts through the center of gravity of any submerged body center of the volume of floating body centroid of the volume of fluid vertically above the body centriod of the displaced volume of fluid TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
For a floating body to be in equilibrium center of buoyancy and e.g. must lie on same vertical plane All of these a righting couple should be formed meta center should be above e.g. TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
