A tube of length $L$ is filled completely with an incompressible liquid of mass $M$ and closed at both the ends. The tube is then rotated in a horizontal plane about one of its ends with a uniform angular velocity $\omega$. The force exerted by the liquid at the other end is:
  1. $\frac{M L^2 \omega^2}{2}$
  2. $\frac{M L \omega^2}{2}$
  3. $\frac{M L^2 \omega}{2}$
  4. $M L \omega^2$

Solution

$\therefore$ Centrifugal force $=M \omega^2 r$ $\begin{aligned} & =M\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \omega^2 \\ & =\frac{M L \omega^2}{2} . \end{aligned}$ .
