MCQ
A beaker containing a liquid is kept inside a big closed jar. If the air inside the jar is continuously pumped out the pressure in the liquid near the bottom of the liquid will:
  • A
    Increase
  • Decrease
  • C
    Remain constant
  • D
    First decrease and then increase.

Answer

Correct option: B.
Decrease
As the air inside the jar is pumped out, the air pressure decreases. Thus, the pressure in the liquid near the bottom of the beaker decreases.

A particle of mass $m$ is attached to one end of a mass-less spring of force constant $k$, lying on a frictionless horizontal plane. The other end of the spring is fixed. The particle starts moving horizontally from its equilibrium position at time $t=0$ with an initial velocity $u_0$. When the speed of the particle is $0.5 u_0$, it collies elastically with a rigid wall. After this collision :
