At time t = 0, terminal A in the circuit shown in the figure is connected to B by a keyand an alternating current $$I(t) = I_0 \cos^fo (\omega t)$$, with $$I_0 = 1 A$$ and $$\omega = 500 rad s^{-1}$$ starts flowing in it with the intial direction shown in the figure. At $$t = \frac{7 \pi}{6 \omega}$$, the key is switched from B to D. Now onwards only A and D are connected. A total charge Q flows from the battery to charge the capacitor fully. If $$C = 20 \mu F, R = 10 Ω$$ and the battery is ideal with emf of 50V, identify the correct statement (s).

One end of a taut string of length 3m along the x axis is fixed at x = 0.The speed of the waves in the string is $$100 ms^{-1}$$.

A parallel plate capacitor has a dielectric slab of dielectric constant K between its plates that covers $$\frac{1}{3}$$ of the area of its plates, as shown in the figure. The total capacitance of the capacitor is C while that of the portion with dielectric in between is $$C_1$$. When the capacitor is charged, the plate area covered by the dielectric gets charge $$Q_1$$ and the rest of the area gets charge $$Q_2$$. The electric field in the dielectric is $$E_1$$ and that in the other portion is $$E_2$$. Choose the correct option/options, ignoring edge effects.

Let $$E_1 (r), E_2 (r)$$ and $$E_3 (r)$$ be the respective electric fields at a distance r from a point charge Q, an infinitely long wire with constant linear charge density $$\lambda$$, and an infinite plane with uniform surface charge density $$\sigma$$. If $$E_1 (r_0) = E_2 (r_0) = E_3 (r_0)$$ at a given distance $$r_0$$, then

A student is performing an experiment using a resonance column and a tuning fork of frequency $$244s^{−1}$$. He is told that the air in the tube has been replaced by another gas (assume that the column remains filled with the gas). If the minimum height at which resonance occurs is $$(0.350 \pm 0.005) m,$$ the gas in the tube is

Heater of an electric kettle is made of a wire of length L and diameter d. It takes 4 minutes to raise the temperature of 0.5kg water by 40K. This heater is replaced by a new heater having two wires of the same material, each of length L and diameter 2d.The way these wires are connected is given in the options. How much time in minutes will it take to raise the temperature of the same amount of water by 40 K?

In the figure, a ladder of mass m is shown leaning against a wall. It is in static equilibrium making an angle $$\theta$$ with the horizontal floor. The coefficient of friction between the wall and the ladder is $$\mu_1$$ and that between the floor and the ladder is $$\mu_2$$. The normal reaction of the wall on the ladder is $$N_1$$ and that of the floor is $$N_2$$. If the ladder is about to slip, then

A transparent thin film of uniform thickness and refractive index $$n_1 = 1.4$$ is coated on the convex spherical surface of radius Rat one end of a long solid glass cylinder of refractive index $$n_2 = 1.5,$$ as shown in the figure. Rays of light parallel to the axis of the cylinder traversing through the film from air to glass get focused at distance $$f_1$$ from the film, while rays of light traversing from glass to air get focused at distance $$f_2$$ from the film. Then

Two ideal batteries of  $$emfV_1$$ and $$V_2$$ and three resistances $$R_1, R_2$$ and $$R_3$$ are connected as shown in the figure. The current in resistance $$R_2$$ would be zero if

Airplanes A and B are flying with constant velocity in the same vertical plane at angles $$30^\circ$$ and $$60^\circ$$ with respect to the horizontal respectively as shown in figure. The speed of A is $$100 \sqrt 3 ms^{−1}$$. At time t = 0 s, an observer in A finds B at a distance of 500 m. This observer sees B moving with a constant velocity perpendicular to the line of motion of A. If at $$t = t_0$$, A just escapes being hit by B, $$t_0$$ in seconds is

During Searle’s experiment, zero of the Vernier scale lies between $$3.20 \times 10^{−2} m$$ and $$3.25 \times 10^{-2} m$$ of the main scale. The $$20^{th}$$ division of the Vernier scale exactly coincides with one of the main scale divisions. When an additional load of 2 kg is applied to the wire, the zero of the Vernier scale still lies between $$3.20 \times 10^{-2} m$$ and $$3.25 \times 10^{-2} m$$ of the main scale but now the $$45^{th}$$ division of Vernier scale coincides with one of the main scale divisions. The length of the thin metallic wire is 2 m and its cross-sectional area is $$8 \times 10^{-7} m^2$$. The least count of the Vernier scale is $$1.0 \times 10^{-5} m$$. The maximum percentage error in the Young’s modulus of the wire is

Two parallel wires in the plane of the paper are distance $$X_0$$ apart. A point charge is moving with speed u between the wires in the same plane at a distance $$X_1$$ from one of the wires. When the wires carry current of magnitude I in the same direction, the radius of curvature of the path of the point charge is $$R_1$$. In contrast, if the currents I in the two wires have directions opposite to each other, the radius of curvature of the path is $$R_2$$. If $$\frac{X_0}{X_1} = 3,$$ the value of $$\frac{R_1}{R_2}$$ is

To find the distance d over which a signal can be seen clearly in foggy conditions, a railways engineer uses dimensional analysis and assumes that the distance depends on the mass density $$\rho$$ of the fog, intensity (power/area) SS of the light from the signal and its frequency f. The engineer finds that disproportional to $$S^{\frac {1}{n}}$$. The value of n is

Two massless spring toy-guns, each carrying a steel ball of mass 0.05 kg are attached to the platform at a distance 0.25 m from the centre on its either sides along its diameter (see figure). Each gun simultaneously fires the balls horizontally and perpendicular to the diameter in opposite directions.
