- The density and breaking stress of a wire are \( 6 \times 10^4 \, \text{kg/m}^3 \) and \( 1.2 \times 10^8 \, \text{N/m}^2 \) respectively. The wire is suspended from a rigid support on a planet where the acceleration due to gravity is \( \frac{1}{3} \) of the value on the surface of Earth. The maximum length of the wire without breaking is ________ m (take \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \)).

- The reading of pressure metre attached with a closed pipe is \( 4.5 \times 10^4 \, N/m^2 \). On opening the valve, water starts flowing and the reading of pressure metre falls to \( 2.0 \times 10^4 \, N/m^2 \). The velocity of water is found to be \( \sqrt{V} \, m/s \). The value of \( V \) is \_\_\_\_\_\_\_.

Properties of Solids:
- In solids, particles are tightly or closely packed.
- Solids are incompressible, meaning the constituent particle is arranged close to each other and because of that, there is negligible space between the constituent particle.
- Solids are rigid, due to lack of space between the constituent particles which make it rigid or fixed.
- Solids have definite mass, volume and shape due to which it has a compact arrangement of constituent particles.
- The intermolecular distance between molecules is short.
- The rate of diffusion in solids is very low.
