Two bodies of the same mass are moving with the same speed, but in different directions in a plane. They have a completely inelastic collision and move together thereafter with a final speed which is half of their initial speed. The angle between the initial velocities of the two bodies (in degree) is.
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(120\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Momentum conservation along \(x\)
\(2 mv _{0} \cos \theta=2 m \frac{ v _{0}}{2}\)
\(\cos \theta=\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\theta=60\)
Angle is \(2 \theta=120\)

It is because the water in between forms cylindrical surface on the side that gives rise to lower pressure in the water in comparison to atmosphere. If the radius of the cylindrical surface is \(R\) and surface tension of water is \(T\) then the pressure in water between the plates is lower by
