- A block hangs vertically at the bottom end of a uniform rope of constant mass per unit length. The top end of the rope is attached to a fixed rigid support at O. A transverse wave pulse (Pulse 1) of wavelength is produced at point O on the rope. The pulse takes time to reach point A. If the wave pulse of wavelength is produced at point A (Pulse 2) without disturbing the position of M it takes time to reach point O. Which of the following options is/are correct?
JEE Advanced 2017 Medium - A cylindrical vessel of height \(500 \mathrm{~mm}\) has an orifice (small hole) at its bottom. The orifice is initially closed and water is filled in it upto height \(H\). Now the top is completely sealed with a cap and the orifice at the bottom is opened. Some water comes out from the orifice and the water level in the vessel becomes steady with height of water column being 200 \(\mathrm{mm}\). Find the fall in height (in \(\mathrm{mm}\) ) of water level due to opening of the orifice.

- The figure shows a system consisting of (i) a ring of outer radius \(3 R\) rolling clockwise without slipping on a horizontal surface with angular speed \(\omega\) and (ii) an inner disc of radius \(2 R\) rotating anti-clockwise with angular speed \(\omega / 2\). The ring and disc are separated by frictionless ball bearings. The point \(P\) on the inner disc is at a distance \(R\) from the origin, where \(O P\) makes an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) with the horizontal. Then with respect to the horizontal surface,
JEE Advanced 2012 Medium - A soft plastic bottle, filled with water of density \(1 \mathrm{gm} / \mathrm{cc}\), carries an inverted glass test-tube with some air (ideal gas) trapped as shown in the figure. The test-tube has a mass of \(5 \mathrm{gm}\), and it is made of a thick glass of density \(2.5 \mathrm{gm} / \mathrm{cc}\). Initially the bottle is sealed at atmospheric pressure \(p_{0}=10^{5} \mathrm{~Pa}\) so that the volume of the trapped air is \(v_{0}=3.3 \mathrm{cc}\). When the bottle is squeezed from outside at constant temperature, the pressure inside rises and the volume of the trapped air reduces. It is found that the test tube begins to sink at pressure \(p_{0}+\Delta p\) without changing its orientation. At this pressure, the volume of the trapped air is \(v_{0}-\Delta v\).
Let \(\Delta v=X\) cc and \(\Delta p=Y \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~Pa}\).
