Answer: A – Buoyant force = ρVg = 1000 × 0.05 × 9.8 = 490 N.

Q57. Water flows through a pipe of cross-sectional area 0.04 m2 at 2 m/s, then enters a narrower or wider section of area 0.08 m2. What is the water speed in the second section?

  • (A) 0.5 m/s
  • (B) 1 m/s
  • (C) 1.5 m/s
  • (D) 4 m/s
Show Answer

Answer: B – Continuity: A1v1 = A2v2, so v2 = (0.04 × 2) ÷ 0.08 = 0.08 ÷ 0.08 = 1 m/s.

Q58. Water flows through a hose of cross-sectional area 0.02 m2 at 7 m/s. What is the volume flow rate?

  • (A) 350 m3/s
  • (B) 7.02 m3/s
  • (C) 0.14 m3/s
  • (D) 0.28 m3/s
Show Answer

Answer: C – Volume flow rate = Av = 0.02 × 7 = 0.14 m3/s.

Q59. In a horizontal pipe, water speeds up from 2 m/s to 8 m/s. By how much does the pressure drop? (Density of water = 1000 kg/m3.)

  • (A) 6000 Pa
  • (B) 15000 Pa
  • (C) 60000 Pa
  • (D) 30000 Pa
Show Answer

Answer: D – Bernoulli (horizontal): ΔP = 0.5ρ(v22 – v12) = 0.5 × 1000 × (82 – 22) = 500 × (64 – 4) = 500 × 60 = 30000 Pa.

Q60. A wooden block of density 600 kg/m3 floats in water of density 1000 kg/m3. What percentage of the block’s volume is submerged?

  • (A) 60%
  • (B) 70%
  • (C) 30%
  • (D) 120%
Show Answer

Answer: A – For a floating object, fraction submerged = density of object ÷ density of fluid = 600 ÷ 1000 = 0.6. As a percentage, that is 60%.
