As shown in the figure, a combination of a thin plano concave lens and a thin plano convex lens is used to image an object placed at infinity. The radius of curvature of both the lenses is $30\,cm$ and refraction index of the material for both the lenses is $1.75$. Both the lenses are placed at distance of $40\,cm$ from each other. Due to the combination, the image of the object is formed at distance $x =..........cm$, from concave lens.

→A long straight wire carries a current, $I=2$ ampere. A semi-circular conducting rod is placed beside it on two conducting parallel rails of negligible resistance. Both the rails are parallel to the wire. The wire, the rod and the rails lie in the same horizontal plane, as shown in the figure. Two ends of the semi-circular rod are at distances $1 cm$ and $4 cm$ from the wire. At time $t=0$, the rod starts moving on the rails with a speed $v =3.0 m / s$ (see the figure).
