It is a common observation that rain clouds can be at about a kilometer altitude above the ground. If the diameter of the rain drop is 4mm then Estimate the time required to flatten the drop.

It is a common observation that rain clouds can be at about a kilometer altitude above the ground. Rate of change of momentum is force. Estimate how much force such a drop would exert on you.

It is a common observation that rain clouds can be at about a kilometer altitude above the ground. If a rain drop falls from such a height freely under gravity, what will be its speed? Also calculate in km/h. (G = 10 m//s^2) .

It is a common observation that rain clouds can be at about a kilometer altitude above the ground. A typical rain drop is about 4 mm diameter. Momentum is mass xx speed in magnitude. Estimate its momentum when it hits the ground.

A small retangular coil ABCD contains 140 turns of wire. The sides AB and BC of the coil are of length 4.5 and 2.8 cm respectively, as shown in the figure The coil is held between the poles of a large magnet so that the coil can rotate about an axis thorugh its centre. The magnet produces a uniform magnetic field of flux density B between its poles. When the current in the coil is 170 mA, the maximum torque produced in the coil is 2.1 xx 10^-3 N m . For the coil in the position shown in the figure. calculate the magnitude of the force on (i) side AB of the coil and (ii) side BC of the coil.

A rain drop of radius 2 mm falls from a height of 500 nr above the ground. It falls with decreasing acceleration (due to viscous resistance of the air) until at half its original height, it attains its maximum (terminal) speed, and moves with uniform speed thereafter. What is the work done by the gravitational force on the drop in the first and second half of its journey ? What is the work done by the resistive force in the entire journey if its speed on reaching the ground is 10 m s^-1 ?

The Millikan oil-drop experiment enabled the charge on the electron to be deterined. Two parallel metal plates P and Q are situated in a vaccum. The plates are horizontal and separated by a distance of 5.4 mm, as illustrated in fig. The lower plate P is earthed. The potential difference between the plates can be varied. An oil droplet of mass 7.7 xx 10^-15 kg is oserved to remain stationary between the plates , when palte Q is a t a potential of +850 suggest why plates p and Q must be parallel and horizontal and calcualte the charge with its gin, on the oil droplet.
