Radius of the curved road on national highway is r. Width of the road is l. The outer edge of the road is raised by h with respect to the inner edge so that a car with velocity v can pass safely over it. The value of h is

Part of a racing track is to be designed for a curvature of 72 m. We are not recommending the vehicles to drive faster than 216 kmph. With what angle should the road be tilted? By what height will its outer edge be, with respect to the inner edge if the track is 10m wide?

Questions based on paragraph A man pulls a cart on a horizontal road of 2 m by applying a force of 200 N. Later the road gets inclined at an angle of 60° with horizontal and man starts pulling his cart from base of the inclined road to the top. The length of the inclined portion of road is 4 m. Based on the given information answer the following questions. What will be the height of inclined surface?

Read the following paragraph and answer the questions given below it: The resistance of a metal falls when cooled below room temperature. Many scientists believed that the value of the resistance would become constant at some very low temperature, allowing the current to flow with little or no resistance. H. K. Onnes successfully liquefied helium in 1908 by cooling it to about 4 K. In 1911, while investigating the electrical property of very pure mercury. Onnes discovered that at a temperature of 4.2 kelvin, its resistance practically vanished. This new state, on account of its extraordinary property, is now called the superconducting state and the phenomenon is called superconductivity. A superconductor, below a certain critical temperature, offers almost zero resistance to a flow of current through it. Onnes also discovered that a superconductor exhibits persistent current: once set up, the current continues to flow for a very long time without an electric potential difference driving it and without significant loss. Superconductivity is used in many diverse areas, such as magnetically levitated trains, transmission of electricity, increasing speed of computers, in MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). Name the scientist who discovered superconductivity.
