NEET UG PHYSICS MCQ: MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF FLUIDS

1 Hard
1 of 1
Application +4 | -1
A small block of wood of specific gravity 0.5 is submerged at a depth of 1.2 m1.2 \mathrm{~m} in a vessel filled with water. The vessel is accelerated upwards with an acceleration a0=g2a_0=\frac{g}{2}. Time taken by the block to reach the surface, if it is released with zero initial velocity is (g=10 m/s2)\left(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\right)
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
0.4 s0.4 \mathrm{~s}
Option A (0.6 s0.6 \mathrm{~s}) is correct because it is the calculated time taken by the block to reach the surface, considering the upward acceleration of the vessel.
