  • question_answer
    A liquid is kept in a cylindrical vessel which is rotated along its axis. The liquid rises at the sides (as shown in figure). If the radius of the vessel is 0.05 m and the speed of rotation is 2 rad \[{{\text{s}}^{-1}}\], find the difference in the height of the liquid at the centre of the vessel and its sides.

    A)  20 cm

    B)  4 cm

    C)  2 cm   

    D)  0.2 cm

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] : According to Bernoulli s theorem, \[P+\frac{1}{2}\rho {{v}^{2}}=\]constant. Near the ends, the velocity of liquid is higher so that pressure is lower as a result the liquid rises at the sides to compensate for this drop of pressure. i.e.,\[\rho gh=\frac{1}{2}\rho {{v}^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}\rho {{r}^{2}}{{\omega }^{2}}\] Hence,\[h=\frac{{{r}^{2}}{{\omega }^{2}}}{2g}=\frac{{{r}^{2}}{{(2\pi \upsilon )}^{2}}}{2g}=\frac{2{{\pi }^{2}}{{r}^{2}}{{\upsilon }^{2}}}{g}\] \[=\frac{2\times {{\pi }^{2}}\times {{(0.05)}^{2}}\times {{2}^{2}}}{9.8}\]\[=0.02m=2cm\]
