A boat crosses a lake and returns in time `T_0`, at a speed V. On a rough day, there is uniform current al speedy to help the onward journey and impede the return journey. If the time taken to go across and retum on the same day be T. then `T/T_0` is

A

`(1-v^2)/V^2`

B

`1/(1-(v^2/V^2))`

C

`(1+v^2)/V^2`

D

`1/(1+(v^2/V^2))`

Preeti reached the metro station and found that the escalator was not working. She walked up the stationary escalator in time t_1 . On other days. if she remains stationary on the moving escalater, then the escalator takes her up in time t_2 . The time taken by her to walk up on the moving escalator will be:

A body starting from rest at t=0 moves along a straight line with a constant acceleration. At t= 2s , the body reverses its direction keeping the acceleration same. The body returns to the initial position at t=t_0 , then t_0 is

A body moves from A to B at a speed of 10 m/s and back to A along the same path at a speed of 20 m/s. Find its average speed and average velocity for the journey. [Hint : If s is the distance covered by the body between A and B, average speed = (2s)/(t_1 + t_2) = (2s)/[(s/v_1)+(s/v_2)} = (2v_1v_2)/(v_1 + v_2)

Two identical discs of same radius R are rotating about their axes in opposite directions with the same constant angular speed omega . The discs are in the same horizontal plane. At time t-0, the points P and Q are facing each other as shown in the figure. The relative speed between the two points P and Q is v_r , As a function of time, it is best represented by

A closely wound solenoid of 2000 turns and area of cross-section 1.6 xx 10^-4 m^2 ,carrying a current of 4.0 A,is suspended through its centre allowing it to turn in a horizontal plane. What are the force and torque on the solenoid if a uniform horizontal magnetic field of 7.5 xx 10^-2 T is set up at an angle of 30^@ with the axis of the solenoid ?

Pendulum A and B having periodic times 4 s and 4.2 s, are made to oscillate simultaneously. At time t = 0, they are in the same phase. After how many complete oscillations of A, they will be again in the same phase?

A magnetic field set up using Helmholtz coils is uniform in a small, region and has a magnitude of 0.75 T. In the same region a uniform electrostatic field is maintained in a direction normal to the common axis of the coils . A narrow beam of (single species) charged particles all accelerated through 15 kV enters this region in a direction perpendicular to both the axis of the coils and the electrostatic field . If the beam remains undeflected when the electrostatic field is 9.0 xx 10^-5 V m^-1 , make a simple guess as to what the beam contains . Why is the answer not unique ?
