surface of Earth. (Take radius of Earth as ‘R’)

8. a) State the working principle of a hydraulic lift. 2M

10. Define escape velocity. Obtain the expression for escape velocity ‘ve’, for a mass 3M
‘m’, projected from the surface of a planet of mass ‘M’ and radius ‘R’.

Section D
11. Thermal expansion of materials with an increase in temperature is anticipated in 4M
many common situations. When a bridge is subject to large seasonal changes in
temperature, for example, sections of the bridge are separated by expansion slots so
that the sections have room to expand on hot days without the bridge buckling.
When a dental cavity is filled, the filling material must have the same thermal
expansion properties as the surrounding tooth, otherwise, consuming cold ice
cream and hot coffee would be very painful. When the Concorde aircraft was built,
the design had to allow for the thermal expansion of the fuselage during supersonic
flight because of frictional heating by the passing air.
The thermal expansion properties of some materials can be put to common use.
Thermometers and thermostats may be based on the differences in expansion

between the components of a bimetal strip. Also, the familiar liquid-in-glass
thermometers are based on the fact that liquids such as mercury and alcohol expand
to a different (greater) extent than their glass containers.

i) Define coefficient of linear expansion and write its expression.


ii) Write the S.I unit of coefficient of volume expansion.
iii) A hole is drilled in a copper sheet. The diameter of the hole is 4.16 cm at 27°C.
What is the change in the diameter of the hole when the sheet is heated to 127 °C?
(Coefficient of linear expansion of copper = 1.70 × 10-5 K-1)
OR
Show that the coefficient of area expansion is twice the coefficient of linear
expansion.

Section E
12. a) What is meant by capillarity? 5M
b) Derive the expression for capillary rise.

OR
a) Derive the expression of terminal velocity of a spherical ball falling through a
viscous liquid medium.
b) Eight rain drops of radius 1.5 mm each falling down with a terminal velocity of
3 cm/s combine to form a bigger drop. Calculate the terminal velocity of the bigger
drop.
