Two resistors are connected in parallel. The equivalent resistance is :
Consider a dimensionally consistent equation given as :
Select the correct alternative.
The main scale of a vernier calliper has \(n\) divisions/cm. \(n\) divisions of the vernier scale coincide with \((n-1)\) divisions of the main scale. The least count of the vernier calliper is:
1. \(\frac{1}{(n+1)(n-1)}\) cm
2. \(\frac{1}{n}\) cm
3. \(\frac{1}{n^{2}}\) cm
4. \(\frac{1}{(n)(n+1)}\) cm
If z=, and errors in the determination of A and B are respectively , then the fractional error in the calculation of z is :
A particle of mass 'm' is executing oscillations about the origin on the x-axis. Its potential energy is U(x) = k|x| where k is a positive constant. If the amplitude of oscillation is a, then its time period T is directly proportional to:
1.
2. a
3.
4.
In an experiment, the percentage errors that occurred in the measurement of physical quantities \(A,\) \(B,\) \(C,\) and \(D\) are \(1\%\), \(2\%\), \(3\%\), and \(4\%\) respectively. Then, the maximum percentage of error in the measurement of \(X,\) where \(X=\frac{A^2 B^{\frac{1}{2}}}{C^{\frac{1}{3}} D^3}\), will be:
1. \(10\%\)
2. \(\frac{3}{13}\%\)
3. \(16\%\)
4. \(-10\%\)
The unit of thermal conductivity is:
1. | W m–1 K–1 | 2. | J m K–1 |
