9-1.Fluid Mechanics
easy
A cork is submerged in water by a spring attached to the bottom of a bowl. When the bowl is kept in an elevator moving with acceleration downwards, the length of spring
A
Increases
B
Decreases
C
Remains unchanged
D
None of these
Solution
(b) Effective weight $W' = m(g – a)$ which is less than actual weight $mg,$ so the length of spring decreases.
