Direction. In the following questions, a statement of assertion is followed by a statement of reason. While answering a question, you are required to choose the correct are out of the given four responses and mark it as (A). If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion, (B) if both assertion and reason are true but reason is not correct explanation of the assertion. (C) if assertion is true, but reason if false, (D) if both assertion and reason are false Assertion : We use a thick wire in the secondary of a step down transformer to reduce the production of heat. Reason : When the plane of the armature is parallel to the lines of force of magnetic field, the magnitude of induced e.m.f. is maximum.

There is another useful system of units, besides the SI/MKS. A system, called the cgs system. In this system Coulumb's law is given by vecF = (Qq)/(r^2) hatr where the distance r is measured in cm (=10^(-2) m) , F in dynes (= 10^(-5) N) and the charges in electrostatic units (es units), where 1es unit of charge = 1/[3] xx 10^(-9) C . The number [3] actually arises the speed of light in vacuum which now taken to be exactly given by c = 2.99792458 xx 10^8 m/s . An approximate value of c then is c = [3] xx 10^8 m/s . Show that the Coulomb law in cgs units yields. 1 esu of charge = 1 (dy )^(1/2) cm . obtain the dimension of units of charge in terms of mass M, length L and time T. show that it is given in terms of fractional powers of M and L.

H.C.F. of co-prime numbers 4 and 15 was found as follows:factorisation : 4=2xx 2 and 15= 3 xx 5 .since there is no common prime factor,so H.C.F. of 4 anb 15 is 0.Is the answer correct?If not,what is the correct H.C.F ?
