Four identical beakers contain same amount of water as shown below.

Question Image

Beaker A contains only water. A lead ball is held submerged in the beaker B by string from above. A same sized plastic ball, say a table tennis TT ball, is held submerged in beaker C by a string attached to a stand from outside. Beaker D contains same sized TT ball which is held submerged from a string attached to the bottom of the beaker. These beakers (without stand) are placed on weighing pans and register readings wA, wB, wC and wD for A, B, C and D respectively. Effects of the mass and volume of the stand and string are to be neglected.

EASY
A particle is acted on by forces given in newtons by F1=10i^4j^ and F2=17i^+2j^. The force F3 which balances these forces is
EASY
A machine gun can fire 200 bullets min-1. If 35 g bullets are fired at a speed of 750 m s-1, the average force exerted by the gun on the bullets is,
HARD
In an hour-glass approximately 100 grains of sand fall per second (starting from rest); and it takes 2 s for each sand particle to reach the bottom of the hour-glass. If the average mass of each sand particle is 0.2 g, then the average force exerted by the falling sand on the bottom of the hour-glass is close to
 
EASY
A block of mass 48 kg kept on a smooth horizontal surface is pulled by a rope of length 4 m by a horizontal force of 25 N applied to the other end. If the linear density of the rope is 0.5 kg m-1, the force acting on the block is
