A loosly wound helix made of stiff wire is mounted vertically with the lower end just touching a dish of mercury when a current from the battery is started in the coil through the mercury

the wire oscillates

the wire continues makes contact

the wire breaks contact just when the current is passed

the mercury will expand by heating due to passage of current

A loosely wound helix made of stiff metal wire is mounted vertically with the lower end just touching the mercury in a dish. When the current from a batter is started in the metal wire through the mercury, the wire executes oscillatory motion with the lower end jumping out of and into the mercury. Explain.

A very flexible uniform chain of mass M and length l is suspended vertically in a lift so that its lower end is just touching the surface of the floor. When the upper end of the chain is released, it falls with each link coming to rest the instant it strikes the floor of the lift.Find the force exerted by the floor of the lift on the chain at the moment, when one fourth of the chain has already rested on the floor. Assume that lift is moving up with an acceleration g/2.

A very flexible uniform chain of mass M and length L is suspended vertically so that its lower and just touches the surface of a table. When the upper end of the chain is released it falls with each link coming to rest the instant it strikes the table. Find the force exerted by the chain on the table at the moment when y part of the chain has already rested on the table.

A circular coil of radius 20 cm and 20 turns of wire is mounted vertically with its plane in magnetic meridian.A small magnetic needle (free to rotate about vertical axis) is placed at the center of the coil.It is deflected through 45^(@) when a current is passed through the coil and in equilbrium (Horizontal component of earth's field is 0.34 xx 10^(-4) T ).The current in coil is:

An ideal gas in enclosed in a tube and is held in the vertical position with the closed end upward. The length of pellet of mercury entrapping the gas is h = 10 cm and the length of the tube occupied by gas is l=40 cm. Calculate the length occupied by the gas when it is turned through theta= 60^(@) and 90^(@) . Atmospheric pressure , H= 76 cm of mercury.

A metal wire of length L is suspended vertically from a rigid support. When a bob of mass M is attached to the lower end of wire, the elongation of the wire is l:
