There are two current carrying planar coils made each from identical wires of length L. C1 is circular (radius R ) and C2 is square (side a). They are so constructed that they have same frequency of oscillation when they are placed in the same uniform B and carry the same current. Find a in terms of R.
The potentiometer wire AB shown in figure. is 50cm long. When AD = 30cm, no deflection occurs in the galvanometer. Find R.

A block of mass 2.0kg is pushed down an inclined plane of inclination 37° with a force of 20N acting parallel to the incline. It is found that the block moves on the incline with an acceleration of 10m/s2. If the block started from rest, find the work done.
  1. By the applied force in the first second.
  2. By the weight of the block in the first second.
  3. By the frictional force acting on the block in the first second. Take g = 10m/s2.
A horizontal cesium plate ($\phi$ = l.9 eV) is moved vertically downward at a constant speed u in a room full of radiation of wavelength 250 run and above. What should be the minimum value of u so that the vertically upward component of velocity is nonpositive for each photoelectron?

Obtain an expression for the frequency of radiation emitted when a hydrogen atom de-excites from level n to level (n – ncy of revolution of the electron in the orbit.
equiconvex lens (of refractive index 1.50) in contact with a liquid layer on top of a plane mirror. A small needle with its tip on the principal axis is moved along the axis until its inverted image is found at the position of the needle. The distance of the needle from the lens is measured to be 45.0 cm. The liquid is removed and the experiment is repeated. The new distance is measured to be 30.0 cm. What is the refractive index of the liquid?
