Figure shows a man of mass 60 kg standing on a light weighting machine kept in a box of mass 30 kg. The box is hanging from a pulley fixed to the ceiling through a light rope, the other end of which is held by the man himself. If the man manages to keep the box at rest, what is the weight shown by the machine? What force should he exert on the rope to get his correct weight on the machine?

A magnetic field that varies in magnitude from point to point but has a constant direction (east to west) is set up in a chamber. A charged particle enters the chamber and travels undeflected along a straight path with constant speed. What can you say about the initial velocity of the particle? A charged particle enters an environment of a strong and non-uniform magnetic field varying from point to point both in magnitude and direction, and comes out of It following a complicated trajectory. Would its final speed equal the initial speed if it suffered no collisions with the environment? An electron travelling west to east enters a chamber baving a uniform electrostatic field in north to south direction. Specify the direction in which a uniform magnetic field should be set up to prevent the electron from deflecting from its straight line path.

Read the given passage and answer the questions that follows: Rhodinus, a blood-sucking bug, shows five instars before it metamorphoses into an adult. It ahs a very long head with the brain located at tip and an organ called Corpora Cardiaca (C C) behind it. The hormone that ensures the continuum of the juvenile stages is called a juvenile hormone. Behind the head is a pro - thoracic gland, which gets triggered by the Pro - Thoracico - Tropic Hormone (PTTH) to release ecdysone required for molting into an adult. The following observations were made when the juveniles of this insect were subjected to various conditions : 1. Starved juveniles (any instar) when decapitated rarr remained juveniles and did not molt into adults. 2. Well-fed juveniles (any instar) when decapitated rarr molted into adults. 3. Starved juveniles (any instar) when partially decapitated to remove the brain cells rarr remained juveniles and did not molt into adults. 4. Well - fed juveniles (any instar) when partially deitated to remove the brain cells rarr did not molt into adults. If an unfed, completely decapitated, fth (final) instar juvenile is connected to a well-fed, decapitated fourth instar juvenile by a glass tube so that fluids can be exchanged, what whill be the expected result ?
