The dimensions of universal gas constant are
-
Solution
\(R=\frac{PV}{\mu T}=\frac{W}{\mu T}=\frac{ML^{2}T^{-2}}{mol\, K}\)
where μ is number of mole of the gas
= [M1L2T-2K-1mol-1]
A closed pipe and an open pipe have their first overtones identical in frequency.Their lengths are in the ratio
Directions: Each question contains STATEMENT-1 and STATEMENT-2. Choose the correct answer(ONLY ONE option is correct ) from the following-
Statement 1 :If the temperature of a semiconductor is increased then it’s resistance decreases.
Statement 2 :The energy gap between conduction ban d and valence band is very small.
-
Solution
(a)Statement -1 is true, Statement-2 is true;Statement -2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1
In semiconductors the energy gap between conduction band and valence band is small (≈1 eV). Due to temperature rise, electron in the valence band gain thermal energy and may jumpy across the small energy gap, (to the conduction band). Thus conductivity increases and hence resistance decreases.
The load versus elongation graph for four wires is shown.The thinnest wire is
Rectilinear motion of light in a medium is caused due to
-
Solution
If the medium is heterogeneous having a gradient of refractive index. Then light rays will not follow a rectilinear(straight line path).
Two drops of the same radius are falling through air with asteady velocity of 5 cm per sec. If the two drops coalesce,the terminal velocity would be
-
Solution
Angular momentum is
-
Solution
Angular momentum \(\dot{L}\) is defined as \(\dot{L}=\dot{r}\times m(\dot{v})\) so \(\dot{L}\) is, an axial vector..
Electrons in the atom are held to the nucleus by
Which of the following must be known in order to determine the power output of an automobile?
-
Solution
Power is defined as the rate of doing work.For the automobile, the power output is the amount of work done (overcoming friction)divided by the length of time in which the work was done.
The velocity of projection of a body is increased by 2%.Other factors remaining unchanged, what will be the percentage change in the maximum height attained?
-
Solution
A rod PQ of mass M and length L is hinged at end P.The rod is kept horizontal by a massless string tied to point Q as shown in figure. When string is cut, the initial angular acceleration of the rod is
-
Solution
Mp denotes the mass of a proton and Mn that of a neutron.A given nucleus, of binding energy B, contains Z protons and N neutrons. The mass M(N, Z) of the nucleus is given by (c is the velocity of light)
-
Solution
Iron is ferromagnetic
The top of an insulated cylindrical container is covered by a disc having emissivity 0.6 and conductivity 0.167WK-1m-1 and thickness1 cm. The temperature is maintained by circulating oil as shown in figure. Find the radiation loss to the surrounding in Jm-2s-1 if temperature of the upper surface of the disc is 27°C and temperature of the surrounding is 27°C
-
Solution
The rate of heat loss per unit area due to radiation
= ∈σ(T4–T04)
= 0.6 × 5.67 × 10-8[(400)4–(300)4] = 595 Jm–2s-1
.
The dimensional formula for relative refractive index is
-
Solution
\(\mu _{r}=\frac{\mu }{\mu _{0}}=\left [ M^{0}L^{0}T^{0} \right ]\)
