(A) $(i)$ At the critical temperature,the interface between liquid and vapor disappears,so the surface tension is $0$.
$(ii)$ Bernoulli's equation is derived from the work-energy theorem,which is based on the law of conservation of energy.
$(iii)$ When a large drop splits into smaller drops,the total surface area increases. Since surface energy is proportional to surface area $(U = T \cdot A)$,the energy is absorbed (or the system requires energy),but in the context of surface tension problems,splitting a drop increases the surface energy,meaning energy is absorbed. However,if the question implies the change in energy,it is positive (absorbed).
$(iv)$ According to Bernoulli's principle,high wind speed over the roof creates low pressure,resulting in an upward lift force.

When an air bubble of radius $r$ rises from the bottom to the surface of a lake,its radius becomes $\frac{5r}{4}$. Taking the atmospheric pressure to be equal to $10 \ m$ height of water column,the depth of the lake would approximately be ....... $m$ (ignore the surface tension and the effect of temperature).

$(a)$ It is known that the density $\rho$ of air decreases with height $y$ as $\rho = \rho_{0} e^{-y / y_{0}}$,where $\rho_{0} = 1.25 \; kg \, m^{-3}$ is the density at sea level,and $y_{0}$ is a constant. This density variation is called the law of atmospheres. Obtain this law assuming that the temperature of the atmosphere remains constant (isothermal conditions). Also,assume that the value of $g$ remains constant.

$A$ bucket contains water filled up to a height $h = 15 \ cm$. The bucket is tied to a rope which is passed over a frictionless light pulley,and the other end of the rope is tied to a weight of mass which is half of that of the (bucket $+$ water). The water pressure above atmospheric pressure at the bottom is ....... $kPa$.

$A$ long cylindrical vessel is half filled with a liquid. When the vessel is rotated about its own vertical axis,the liquid rises up near the wall. If the radius of the vessel is $5 \, cm$ and its rotational speed is $2$ rotations per second,then the difference in the heights between the centre and the sides,in $cm$,will be

An incompressible liquid is kept in a container having a weightless piston with a hole. $A$ capillary tube of inner radius $0.1 \,mm$ is dipped vertically into the liquid through the airtight piston hole,as shown in the figure. The air in the container is isothermally compressed from its original volume $V_0$ to $\frac{100}{101} V_0$ with the movable piston. Considering air as an ideal gas,the height $(h)$ of the liquid column in the capillary above the liquid level in $cm$ is. . . . . . .
