Terminals \(a\) and \(b\) of the key \(k\) are connected to charge capacitor \(C_{1}\) using a battery of emf \(V\) volt. Now disconnecting \(a\) and \(b\) terminals, terminals \(b\) and \(c\) are connected. Due to this, what will be the percentage loss of energy?
1. \(75\%\)
2. \(0\%\)
3. \(50\%\)
4. \(25\%\)
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
A person travelling in a straight line moves with a constant velocity \(v_1\) for a certain distance \(x\) and with a constant velocity \(v_2\) for the next equal distance. The average velocity \(v\) is given by the relation:
1. | \(\frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{v_1}+\frac{1}{v_2}\) | 2. | \(\frac{2}{v} = \frac{1}{v_1}+\frac{1}{v_2}\) |
3. | \(\frac{v}{2} = \frac{v_1+v_2}{2}\) | 4. | \(v = \sqrt{v_1v_2}\) |
Assuming that the gravitational potential energy of an object at infinity is zero, the change in potential energy (final - initial) of an object of mass \(m\) when taken to a height \(h\) from the surface of the earth (of radius \(R\) and mass \(M\)), is given by:
1. \(-\frac{GMm}{R+h}\)
2. \(\frac{GMmh}{R(R+h)}\)
3. \(mgh\)
4. \(\frac{GMm}{R+h}\)
\(1\) g of water of volume \(1\) cm3 at \(100^\circ \text{C}\) is converted into steam at the same temperature under normal atmospheric pressure \(\approx 1\times10^{5} \) Pa. The volume of steam formed equals \(1671\) cm3. If the specific latent heat of vaporization of water is \(2256\) J/g, the change in internal energy is:
1. \(2423\) J
2. \(2089\) J
3. \(167\) J
4. \(2256\) J
The angular width of the central maximum in the Fraunhofer diffraction for \(\lambda=6000~\mathrm{\mathring{A}}\) is \(\theta_0\). When the same slit is illuminated by another monochromatic light, the angular width decreases by \(30\%\). The wavelength of this light is:
