15.
A solid sphere of radius R made of a material of bulk modulus B is surrounded by a liqiud in a cylindrical container. A massless piston of area A floats on the surface of the liqiud. When a mass M is placed on the piston on the piston to compress the liqiud, find fractiional change in the radius of the sphere?
1.
Let ፒ be the torque applied at the free end and ф be the angle of twist at the junction. Then
\(\tau =\frac { \pi \eta { r }^{ 4 }(\Phi '-0) }{ 2l } =\frac { \pi \eta (2r)^{ 4 }(\Phi -\Phi ') }{ 2l } \)
⇒ ф'= 16(ф-ф')
or 17 ф' = 16 ф
or ф' = \(\\ \frac { 16 }{ 17 } \) ф.

7.
A straight line.
8.
The ratio of lateral strain to the longitudinal strain is called Poisson's ratio.
9.
V =1 litre = 10-3 m3; ΔV/V = 0.10/100 = 10-3
K = \(\frac { pV }{ \triangle V } \)
p = K\(\frac { pV }{ \triangle V } \) = (2.2 x 109) x 10-3 = 2.2 x 106 Pa.
10.
Here, P =10 atm = 10 x 1.013 x 105 Pa; k = 37 x 109 Nm-2
Volumetric strain = \(\frac { \triangle V }{ V } =\frac { P }{ K } =\frac { 10\times 1.013\times 10^{ 5 } }{ 37\times 10^{ 9 } } \) = 2.74 x 10-5
∴ Fractional change in volume = \(\frac { \triangle V }{ V } \) = 2.74 x 10-5.
11.
Here, A =15.2 x 19.2 x 10-6 m2; F = 44500 N; η = 42 x 109 Nm-2
Strain = \(\frac { Stress }{ modulus\ of\ elasticity } =\frac { F/A }{ \eta } \)
=\(\frac { F }{ A\eta } =\frac { 44500 }{ (15.2\times 19.2\times 10^{ -6 })\times 42\times 10^{ 9 } } \)
= 3.65 x 10-3.
12.
The situation is shown in the diagram.
Now, Young's modulus (Y) = \(\frac { f }{ A } \times \frac { L }{ l } \)
For first wire, Y = \(\frac { f }{ \pi { r }^{ 2 } } \times \frac { L }{ l } \) ....(i)
For second wire, Y = \(\frac { 2f }{ \pi { (2r) }^{ 2 } } \)\(\times \frac { 2L }{ l\prime } =\frac { f }{ \pi { r }^{ 2 } } \times \frac { L }{ l\prime } \) ...(ii)
For Eqs. (i) and (ii), \(\frac { f }{ \pi { r }^{ 2 } } \times \frac { L }{ l } \)= \(\frac { f }{ \pi { r }^{ 2 } } \times \frac { L }{ l\prime } \)
\(\therefore\) l = l' [ \(\because\) both wires are of same material, hence, Young's modulus will be same].
13.
(i) In the two graphs, the slope of graph in Fig. (a) is greater than the slope of graph in Fig. (b), so material A has greater Young's modulus.
(ii) Material A is stronger than material B because it can withstand more load without breaking. For material A, the break even point (D) is higher.
14.
Bulk modulus of rubber (b) = 9.8 x 108 N/m2
Density of seawater (p) = 103 kg/m3
Percentage decrease in volume
\(\left( \frac { \Delta V }{ V } \times 100 \right) =0.1\ or\ \frac { \Delta V }{ V } =\frac { 0.1 }{ 100 } \)
\(\\ or \frac { \Delta V }{ V } =\frac { 1 }{ 1000 } \)
Let the rubber ball be taken up to depth h.
Change in pressure (p) = hpg
Bulk modulus \((B)=\frac { p }{ (\Delta V/V) } =\frac { hpg }{ (\Delta V/V) } \)
\(or\ h=\frac { B\times (\Delta V/V) }{ pg } =\frac { 9.8\times 10^{ 8 }\times \frac { 1 }{ 1000 } }{ 10^{ 3 }\times 9.8 } =100m\)
15.
When mass M is placed on the piston, the excess pressure, p=Mg/A. As the pressure is equally applicable from all the direction on the sphere, hence there will be decrease in volume due to decrease in raius sphere. Volume of the sphere, \(V=\frac { 3 }{ 4 } \pi { R }^{ 3 }\)
Differentiating it , we get,
\(\Delta V=\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \pi (3{ R }^{ 2 })\Delta R=4\pi { R }^{ 2 }\Delta R\)
\(\\ \frac { \Delta V }{ V } =\frac { 4\pi { R }^{ 2 }\Delta R }{ \frac { 4 }{ 3 } \pi { R }^{ 3 } } =\frac { 3\Delta R }{ R } \)
We know that, \(B=\frac { P }{ dV/V } =\frac { Mg }{ A } \diagup \frac { 3\Delta R }{ R } \)
\(or\ \frac { \Delta R }{ R } =\frac { Mg }{ 3BA } \)
