• Time duration: 60 minutes
• Total no. of Questions: 8. Total Marks: 30 marks
• Section A contains 5 questions. Each question carries 3 marks.
• Section B contains 3 questions. Each question carries 5 marks.

SECTION A

1. A body of volume 100 cm3 weighs 5 kgf in air. It is completely


immersed in a liquid of density 1.8x103 kg m-3. Find the upthrust
due to liquid.
2. A metal cube of 5 cm edge and density 9 g cm-3 is suspended by a
thread so as to be completely immersed in a liquid of density 1.2 g
cm-3. Find the tension in thread. (Take g = 10 m s-2).
3. What fraction of an iceberg of density 910 kgm-3 will be above the
surface of sea water of density 1170 kgm-3 ?
4. A solid weighs 0.08 kgf in air and 0.065 kgf in water. Find
i. R.D. of solid
ii. Density of solid in SI system. [Density of water = 1000 kgm3]
5. A stone of density 3000 kgm-3 is lying submerged in water of
density 1000 kgm-3. If the mass of stone in air is 150 kg, calculate
the force required to lift the stone. [g = 10 m/s2]

SECTION B
1. A hollow cylinder of copper of length 25 cm and area of cross-
section 15 cm2, floats in water with 3/5 of its length inside water.
Calculate
i. apparent density of hollow copper cylinder.
ii. weight of cylinder.
iii. extra force required to completely submerge it in water

2. A balloon of volume 100 m3 is filled with hot air of density 0.40


kgm−3 . If the fabric of balloon weighs 16 kgf and equipment P is
attached to it, such that balloon is in the state of equilibrium,
calculate
(i) Wt. of only hot air
(ii) Wt. of hot air and balloon
(iii) Wt. of cold air displaced, when density of cold air is 1.3
kgm−3

3. A body of mass 3.5 kg displaces 1000 cm3 of water when fully


immersed inside it. Calculate

(i) The volume of body


(ii) The upthrust on body
(iii) The apparent weight of body in water.
