Statement-1: Two identical conincal pipes shown in figure have a drop of water. The water drop tens to move towards tapered end. Statement-2: Excess pressure is directed towards centre of curvature and inversely proportional to radius of curvature. Net excess pressure is therefore, directed towards tapered end. So the water drop tends to move towards tapered end.

A uniform bar of length 12 L and mass 48 m is supported horizontally on two smooth tables as shown in the figure. A small moth (an insect) of mass 8m is sitting on end A of the rod and a spider (an insect) of mass 16 m is sitting on the other end B . Both the insects start moving towards each other along the rod with moth moving at speed 2v and the spider at half of this speed. They meet at a point P on the rod and the spider eats the moth. After this the spider moves with a velocity v//2 relative to the rod towards the end A . The spider takes negligible time in eating the insect. Also, let v = L//T , where T is a constant having value 4 sec .The speed of the bar after the spider eats up the moth and moves towards A is
