In an experiment with Foucault's apparatus, the various distances used are as follows:
Distance between the rotating and the fixed mirror = 16m
Distance between the lens and the rotating mirror = 6m
Distance between the source and the lens = 2m
When the mirror is rotated at a speed of 356 revolutions per second, the image shifts by 0.7mm. Calculate the speed of light from these data.

When an electron goes from the valence band to the conduction band in silicon, its energy is increased by 1.1eV. The average energy exchanged in a thermal collision is of the order of kT which is only 0.026eV at room temperature. How is a thermal collision able to take some of the electrons from the valence band to the conduction band?

Two samples A and B, of the same gas have equal volumes and pressures. The gas in sample A is expanded isothermally to double its volume and the gas in B is expanded adiabatically to double its volume. If the work done by the gas is the same for the two cases, show that $\gamma$ satisfies the equation $1-2^{1-\gamma}=(\gamma-1)\text{ln}2.$

A hemispherical bowl of radius R is rotated about its axis of symmetry which is kept vertical. A small block is kept in the bowl at a position where the radius makes an angle $\theta$ with the vertical. The block rotates with the bowl without any slipping. The friction coefficient between the block and the bowl surface is $\mu.$ Find the range of the angular speed for which the block will not slip.
