Shalini is a student of class X. Her mother was preparing tea in an old electric kettle having metal case. When she switched on the electric kettle. she got a severe electric shock. Shalini put off the main switch qUickly and found that the connecting cord was torn, where her mother touched the metal case of the kettle. She also found that the red and black wires of the connecting cord were firmly connected to the two lower terminals of the power plug but the green wire of the cord was not connected to the upper terminal of the plug. Shalini replaced the torn connecting cord and also connected the three wires of the cord firmly to the power plug terminals. On the basis of the above passage, answer the following questions: What values are displayed by Shalini in this incident?

An experimental setup of verification of photoelectric effect is shown in the diagram. The voltage across the electrode is measured with the help of an ideal voltmetar, and which can be varied by moving jockey 'J' on the potentiometer wire. The battery used in potentiometer circuit is of 20 V and its internal resistance is 2omega . The resistance of 100 cm long potentiometer wire is 8 omega . The photo current is measured with the help of an ideal ammeter. Two plates of potassium oxide of area 50 cm^(2) at separation 0.5 mm are used in the vacuum tube. Photo current in the circuit is very small so we can treat potentiometer circuit an indepdent circuit. The wavelength of various colours is as follows : |{:("Light",underset("Violet")(1),underset("Blue")(2),underset("Green")(3),underset("Yellow")(4),underset("Orange")(5),underset("Red")(6)),(lambda "in" Årarr,4000-4500,4500-5000,5000-5500,5500-6000,6000-6500,6500-7000):}| It is found that ammeter current remians unchanged (2muA) even when the jockey is moved from the 'P' to the middle point of the potentiometer wire. Assuming all the incident photons eject electron and the power of the light incident is 4 xx 10^(-6) W . Then colour of the incident light is :

To conduct Sports Day activities, in your rectangular shaped school ground ABCD, lines have been drawn with chalk powder at a distance of 1m each. 100 flower pots have been placed at a distance of 1 m from each other along AD, as shown in the given figure. Niharika runs (1)/(4) th the distance AD on the 2nd line and posts a green flag. Preet runs (1)/(5) th the distance AD on the eighth line and posts a red flag. What is the distance between both the flags ? If Rashmi has to post a blue flag exactly halfway between the line segment joining the two flags, where should she post her flag ?
