Find the value of the angle of emergence from the prism. Refractive index of the glass is √3.

An electromagnetic wave of wavelength ' λ ' is incident on a photosensitive surface of negligible work function. If ' m ' mass is of photoelectron emitted from the surface has de-Broglie wavelength λ_d, then:

A parallel plate capacitor has a uniform electric field ' E ' in the space between the plates.
If the distance between the plates is ' d ' and the area of each plate is ' A ', the energy stored in the capacitor is: (ε₀ = permittivity of free space)

An inductor of inductance L, a capacitor of capacitance C and a resistor of resistance ' R '
are connected in series to an ac source of potential difference ' V volts as shown in figure.
Potential difference across L, C and R is 40 V, 10 V and 40 V, respectively. The amplitude of current flowing through LCR series circuit is 10√2 A. The impedance of the circuit is:

A horizontal bridge is built across a river. A student standing on the bridge throws a small ball vertically upwards with a velocity $4{\mathrm{m}\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$ . The ball strikes the water surface after $4\mathrm{s}$ . The height of bridge above water surface is (Take $\mathrm{g}=$ $10{\mathrm{m}\mathrm{s}}^{-2}$  ):
