The cause of elasticity of a substance is
deformation
large internal restoring force
low internal restoring force
less distance between the molecules
The graph of stress against strain is always
straight line
parabola
Straight line in elastic region
parabola in elastic region
Young's modulus is property of
solids
solids and liquids
solids or liquids
gases
There are two identical wires with Young's moduli Y1 and Y2 respectively such that Y1> Y2. If they are hung from a rigid support and same weight is applied to them at their free ends then
elongation in the wires will be same
elongation in the first wire will be more
First wire will constrict more
Elongation in the second wire will be more
The bulk modulus of a material of a wire 1m long is B. So the bulk modulus of a 2m long wire of same material will be
2B
B
2/B
B/2
A balloon 's volume decreases by 1% when its pressure is increased by 80%. So its Bulk modulus is
80 unit
1/80 unit
1 unit
800 unit
If a force of 4 N is applied across a face of a cube whose sides are 2mm each then stress produced is
16N/m2
106N/m2

If a wire breaks just after plastic flow begins then material is
strong
hard
brittle
ductile
A liquid drop of diameter D breaks into 27 tiny drops. The resultant change in energy is :–
2πTD²
πTD²
4πTD²
none of these
Two soap bubbles each of radius r are touching each other. The radius of curvature of the common surface will be:
r
2r
r/2
infinite
A copper ball of radius 'r' travels with a uniform speed 'v' in a viscous fluid. If the ball is changed with another
ball of radius '2r', then new uniform speed will be :–
v
2v
4v
8v
A sample of metal weights 210 grams in air, 180 grams in water and 120 grams in an unknown liquid. Then:–
the density of metal is 3 g/cm3
the density of metal is 7 g/cm3
density of metal is 4 times the density of the unknown liquid
the metal will float in water
16 cm3 of water flows per second through a capillary tube of radius a cm and of length 'l' cm when connected
to a pressure head of h cm of water. If a tube of the same length and radius a/2 cm is connected to the same
pressure head, the quantity of water flowing through the tube per second will be(in cc):–
