MCQ
Two identical plates of different metals are joined to form a single plate whose thickness is double the thickness of each plate. If the coefficients of conductivity of each plate are $2$ and $3$ respectively, then the conductivity of composite plate will be
  • A
    $5$
  • $2.4$
  • C
    $1.5$
  • D
    $1.2$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$2.4$
b
(b)Thermal conductivity of composite plate
${K_{eq}} = \frac{{2{K_1}{K_2}}}{{{K_1} + {K_2}}} = \frac{{2 \times 2 \times 3}}{{2 + 3}}$$ = \frac{{12}}{5}$= $2.4$

A ball of mass $10\, kg$ moving with a velocity $10 \sqrt{3}\, ms ^{-1}$ along $X-$axis, hits another ball of mass $20\, kg$ which is at rest. After collision, the first ball comes to rest and the second one disintegrates into two equal pieces. One of the pieces starts moving along $Y-$ axis at a speed of $10\, m / s$. The second piece starts moving at a speed of $20\, m / s$ at an angle $\theta$ (degree) with respect to the $X-$axis. The configuration of pieces after collision is shown in the figure. The value of $\theta$ to the nearest integer is
