Properties of Matter 4 Question 6

8. A thin uniform cylindrical shell, closed at both ends, is partially filled with water. It is floating vertically in water in half-submerged state. If ρc is the relative density of the material of the shell with respect to water, then the correct statement is that the shell is

(2012)

(a) more than half-filled if ρc is less than 0.5

(b) more than half-filled if ρc is more than 1.0

(c) half-filled if ρc is more than 0.5

(d) less than half-filled if ρc is less than 0.5

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 8. (c)

Solution:

  1. Force from right hand side liquid on left hand side liquid.

(i) Due to surface tension force =2RT (towards right)

(ii) Due to liquid pressure force

=x=0x=h(p0+ρgh)(2Rx)dx=(2p0Rh+Rρgh2)( towards left )

Net force is |2p0Rh+Rρgh22RT|
