An empty glass jar is submerged in tank ...

An empty glass jar is submerged in tank of water with open mouth of the jar downwards, so that air inside the jar is trapped and cannot get out. As the jar is pushed down slowly, the magnitude of net buoyant force on the system of volume of gas trapped in the jar and the jar.

A

increases

B

decreases

C

remains same

D

information is insufficient to draw inference

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

As the jar is pushed down, due to increases in hydrostatic pressure, volume of gas trapped decreases. Hence net bouyant force decreases.

A bell is ringing inside of a sealed glass jar that is connected to a vacuum pump. Initially, the jar is filled with air, What does one hear as the air is slowly removed from the jar by the pump?

A student placed a gas jar containing air in the upside down position over a gas jar full of red-brown bromine vapours. He observed that the red-brown colour spread upwards into the jar containing air. Based on this observation, the student concluded that it is only the bromine vapour which moves up and diffuses into air in the upper jar, the air from the upper jar does not move down by diffusion into the lower jar containing bromine vapours. Do you agree with this conclusion of the student ? Give reason for your answer.
