Water is drained from a vertical cylindrical tank by opening a valve at the base of the tank. It is known that the rate at which the water level drops is proportional to the square root of water depth y , where the constant of proportionality k >0 depends on the acceleration due to gravity and the geometry of the hole. If t is measured in minutes and k=1/(15), then the time to drain the tank if the water is 4 m deep to start with is (a) 30 min (b) 45 min (c) 60 min (d) 80 min

(a) The power of sound from the speaker of a radio is 20 mW. By turning the knob of volume control the power of sound is increased to 400 mW, What is the power increase in dB as compared to original power? (b) How much more intense is an 80 dB sound than a 20 dB whisper?

Wave property of electron implies that they will show diffraction effected . Davisson and Germer demonstrated this by diffracting electron from crystals . The law governing the diffraction from a crystals is obtained by requiring that electron waves reflected from the planes of atoms in a crystal inter fere constructiely If a strong diffraction peak is observed when electrons are incident at an angle i from the normal to the crystal planes with distance d between them (see fig) de Brogle wavelength lambda_(dB) of electrons can be calculated by the relationship (n is an intenger)
