Question:
A liquid fills a horizontal capillary tube whose one end is dipped in a large pool of the liquid. Experiments show that the distance L travelled by the liquid meniscus inside the capillary in time t is given by
L = kyaRbµ√t,
where γ is the surface tension, R is the inner radius of the capillary, and µ is the dynamic viscosity of the liquid. If k is a dimensionless constant, then the exponent α is ___ (rounded off to 1 decimal place).

- A 2m × 2m tank of 3 m height has inflow, outflow and stirring mechanisms. Initially, the tank was half-filled with fresh water. At t = 0, an inflow of a salt solution of concentration 5 g/m3 at the rate of 2 litre/s and an outflow of the well stirred mixture at the rate of 1 litre/s are initiated. This process can be modelled using the following differential equation:
\(\frac {dm}{dt}+\frac {m}{6000+t}=0.01\)
where m is the mass (grams) of the salt at time t (seconds). The mass of the salt (in grams) in the tank at 75% of its capacity is _____ (rounded off to 2 decimal places).- GATE CE - 2024

- A heat pump (H.P.) is driven by the work output of a heat engine (H.E.) as shown in the figure. The heat engine extracts 150 kJ of heat from the source at 1000 K. The heat pump absorbs heat from the ambient at 280 K and delivers heat to the room which is maintained at 300 K. Considering the combined system to be ideal, the total amount of heat delivered to the room together by the heat engine and heat pump is _____kJ (answer in integer).
