Find the decrease in the length of the wire when the steel weight is completely immersed in water. Y_("steel") = 2xx 10^(11) N//m^(2) density of water = 10^(3) kg//m^(3) ]

A tank of large base area is filled with water up to a height of 5 m . A hole of 2 cm^(2) cross section in the bottom allows the water to drain out in continuous streams. For this situation, mark out the correct statement(s) (take rho_("water")=1000kg//m^(3),g=10ms^(-12))

Three identical blocks each of mass m = 1 kg and volume 3 xx 10^(-4) m^(3) are suspended by massless strings from a support as shown. Underneath are three identical containers containing the same amount of water that are placed over the scales. In Fig. (a), the block is completely out of the water, in Fig. (b), the block is completely submerged but not touching the beaker and in Fig. (c), the block rests on the bottom of the beaker. The scale in Fig (a) reads 14 N .
