Figure shown pallel plate capacitors with fixed plate and connected to two batteries .The separation between the plate is the same for the two capacitors .The plates are rectangular in shape with width b and lengths l_1 and l_2. The left half of the dielectric slab has adielectric constant K_1 and the right half K_2 . neglecting any friction ,find the ratio of the emf of the right battery for which the dielctric slab may remain in equilibrium.

Figure shows two parallel plate capacitors with fixed plates and connected to two batteries. The separation between the plates is the same for the two capacitors. The plates are rectangular in shape with width b and length l_(1) and l_(2) . The left half of the dielectric slab has a dielectric constant k_(1) and the right half k_(2) Neglecting any friction, find the ratio of the voltage of ihe left battery for that of the right battery for which the dielectric. slab mayremain in equilibrium.

Statement-1: A brass disc is just fitted in a hole in a steel plate. The system mst be cooled to loosen the disc from the hole Statement-2: The coefficient of linear expansion for brass is greater than the coefficient of linear expansion for steel.

A water tank has a small hole in its wall and a tapering nozzle has been fitted into the hole (figure). The diameter of the nozzle at the exit is d_(0)=1cm . The height of water in the tank above the central line of the nozzle is h=2.0m. Calculate the dischargerate in m^(3)s^(-1) through the nozzle. Another nozzle which is diverging outwards is fitted smoothly to the first nozzle. The pressure at the neck of the two nozzle (where diameter is d_(0) ) drops ot 2.5m of water. Calculate the exit diameter (d) of the nozzle. Atmosphere pressure =10m of water and g=10ms^(-2)

A 1.5 kg steel sphere will not fit through a circular hole in a 0.85 kg aluminium plate, because the radius of the sphere is 0.10% larger than the radius of the hole. If both the sphere and the plate are always kept at the same temperature, how much heat must be put into the two so the ball just passes through the hole ?
