$A$ cylindrical tube,with its base as shown in the figure,is filled with water. It is moving down with a constant acceleration $a$ along a fixed inclined plane with angle $\theta=45^{\circ}$. $P_1$ and $P_2$ are pressures at points $1$ and $2$,respectively,located at the base of the tube. Let $\beta=(P_1-P_2) / (\rho g d)$,where $\rho$ is the density of water,$d$ is the inner diameter of the tube,and $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity. Which of the following statement$(s)$ is(are) correct?
$(A)$ $\beta=0$ when $a=g / \sqrt{2}$
$(B)$ $\beta>0$ when $a=g / \sqrt{2}$
$(C)$ $\beta=\frac{\sqrt{2}-1}{\sqrt{2}}$ when $a=g / 2$
$(D)$ $\beta=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$ when $a=g / 2$

$A$ vertical $U-$tube of uniform inner cross-section contains mercury in both sides of its arms. $A$ glycerin (density = $1.3 \text{ g/cm}^3$) column of length $10 \text{ cm}$ is introduced into one of its arms. Oil of density $0.8 \text{ g/cm}^3$ is poured into the other arm until the upper surfaces of the oil and glycerin are in the same horizontal level. Find the length of the oil column in $\text{cm}$. (Density of mercury = $13.6 \text{ g/cm}^3$)

$A$ cylindrical vessel of height $500 \ mm$ has an orifice (small hole) at its bottom. The orifice is initially closed and water is filled in it up to 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 the height of the water column being $200 \ mm$. Find the fall in height (in $mm$) of the water level due to the opening of the orifice.
