$\frac{l_{1}}{I_{2}} = \frac{9}{4}$ $\frac{l_{m a x}}{l_{m a x}} = \frac{l_{1} + l_{2} + 2 \sqrt[]{l_{1} l_{2}}}{l_{1} + l_{2} - 2 \sqrt[]{l_{1} l_{2}}}$

$= \frac{\frac{9}{4} + 1 + 2 \sqrt[]{\frac{9}{4}}}{\frac{9}{4} + 1 - 2 \sqrt[]{\frac{9}{4}}}$

$= \frac{\frac{13}{4} + \frac{2 * 3}{2}}{\frac{13}{4} - 2 * \frac{3}{2}} = \frac{25}{1}$

$h υ_{1} = h υ_{0} + K . E_{1}$

$\Rightarrow 3.8 e V = 0.6 e V + K . E_{1}$

K. E₁ = 3.2 eV (i)

$\Rightarrow h υ_{2} = h υ_{01} + K . E_{2}$

1.4 = 0.6 + K.E₂

KE₂ = 0.8 eV (ii)

$\frac{K . E_{1}}{K . E_{2}} = \frac{3.2}{0.8} = 4$

$\frac{v_{1}}{v_{2}} = 2 : 1$

I_R = I_B (due to magnetic field)

(due to Radiation)

$\frac{P}{A} * E f f i c i e n c y = \frac{B_{0}^{2}}{2 μ_{0}} c$

$\Rightarrow \frac{200}{4 π * 4^{2}} * \frac{3.5}{100} = \frac{B_{0}^{2}}{2 * 4 π * 1 0^{- 7}} * 3 * 1 0^{8}$

$\Rightarrow B_{0} = 1.71 * 1 0^{- 8} T$

$F_{C} = F_{q}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{m v^{2}}{R} = \frac{ρ R}{2 \in_{0}} q$

$m v^{2} = \frac{ρ R^{2} q}{2 ε_{0}} \Rightarrow \frac{1}{2} m v^{2} = k . E . = \frac{1}{4} \frac{ρ R^{2} q}{\in_{0}}$

$U_{i} = \frac{Q^{2}}{2 C}$

Uf = 1.44 Ui

Qf = Q + 2

$1.44 U_{i} = \frac{{(Q + 2)}^{2}}{2 C}$

$\Rightarrow 1.44 \frac{Q^{2}}{2 C} = \frac{{(Q + 2)}^{2}}{2 C}$

$\Rightarrow 1.2 Q = Q + 2$

0.2 Q = 2

Q = 10 C

Physics Physics Thermodynamics

A 100g of iron nail is hit by a 1.5 kg hammer striking at a velocity of 60ms^-1. What will be the rise in the temperature of the nail if one fourth of energy of the hammer goes into heating the nail?

Heating energy $= \frac{1}{4} t h$ energy of the hammer

$= \frac{1}{4} * \frac{1}{2} m v^{2}$

$= \frac{1}{4} * \frac{1}{2} * 1.5 * 60 * 60$

$= \frac{15 * 6 * 60}{4 * 2}$

= 675 J

$Δ T = \frac{675}{42} = 16.07 ° C$

$θ = ω_{0} t + \frac{1}{2} α t^{2}$

$5 = 0 * 1 + \frac{1}{2} * α * 1^{2}$

= 10 rad/sec²

(ln 2 seconds) = $ω_{0} t + \frac{1}{2} α t^{2}$

$θ_{2} = 20 r a d$

Angle rotated by wheel in 2^nd second

= $θ_{2} - θ$

= 20 – 5

= 15 rad

Physics Physics Motion in Straight Line

An object of mass 5kg is thrown vertically upwards from the ground. The air resistance produces a constant retarding force of 10 N throughout the motion. The ratio of time of ascent to the time of descent will be equal to : [Use g = 10ms^-2].

$a = \frac{m g + 10}{g} = \frac{5 * 10 + 10}{10}$

$\Rightarrow a = 6 m / s e c^{2}$

v = u + at

0 = u – 6t

$t_{A} = \frac{u}{6}$ (time of Ascent)

$= u * \frac{u}{6} - \frac{u}{2} * 6 * \frac{u}{6} * \frac{u}{6}$

= $\frac{u^{2}}{6} - \frac{u^{2}}{12}$

$h = \frac{u^{2}}{12}$

for time of descent

$a = \frac{50 - 10}{10}$

a = 4 m /sec²

$\Rightarrow \frac{u^{2}}{12} = 0 * t + \frac{1}{2} * 4 t^{2}$

$t_{B} = \frac{u}{\sqrt[]{24}}$

$\frac{t_{A}}{t_{B}} = \frac{u * 24}{6 * u} =$ $\sqrt[]{2}$

$\frac{d U}{d r} = 0 \Rightarrow \frac{d}{d r} [\frac{A}{r^{10}}] - \frac{d}{d r} [\frac{B}{r^{5}}]$

$\Rightarrow \frac{d}{d r} [A r^{- 10}] - \frac{d}{d r} [B r^{- 5}] = 0$

$\Rightarrow - 10 A r^{- 11} + 5 B r^{- 6} = 0$

$r = {(\frac{2 A}{B})}^{\frac{1}{5}}$
