This question contains Statement -1 and Stantement -2 Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best desctibes the two statemesnts. Statement -1: For a mass M kept at the center of a cube of side 'a', the flux of gravitational field passing through its sides 4piGM. Statement -2: If the direction of a field due to a point source is radial and its dependence on the distance 'r' from the source is given as (1)/(r^2) , its flux throught a closed surface depends only on the strength of the source enclosed by the surfcae and not on the size or shape of the surface.

The sides of a square shaped frame, Shown in the diagram are made of wires of resistances r_(1) and r_(2) The frame is places in a uniform magnetic field, which is perpendicular to the plane of figure and is increasing at a constant rate. The resistance that should be connected across the diagonal of frame, so that this wire is warmed up at greatest rate is given by R=(n r_(1)r_(2))/(r_(1)+r_(2)) . Find n.

When an object moves through a fluid, as when a ball falls through air or a glass sphere falls through water te fluid exerts a viscous foce F on the object this force tends to slow the object for a small sphere of radius r moving is given by stoke's law, F_(w)=6pietarv . in this formula eta in the coefficient of viscosity of the fluid which is the proportionality constant that determines how much tangential force is required to move a fluid layer at a constant speed v, when the layer has an area A and is located a perpendicular distance z from and immobile surface. the magnitude of the force is given by F=etaAv//z . For a viscous fluid to move from location 2 to location 1 along 2 must exceed that at location 1, poiseuilles's law given the volumes flow rate Q that results from such a pressure difference P_(2)-P_(1) . The flow rate of expressed by the formula Q=(piR^(4)(P_(2)-P_(1)))/(8etaL) poiseuille's law remains valid as long as the fluid flow is laminar. For a sfficiently high speed however the flow becomes turbulent flow is laminar as long as the reynolds number is less than approximately 2000. This number is given by the formula R_(e)=(2overline(v)rhoR)/(eta) In which overline(v) is the average speed rho is the density eta is the coefficient of viscosity of the fluid and R is the radius of the pipe. Take the density of water to be rho=1000kg//m^(3) Q. If the sphere in previous question has mass of 1xx10^(-5)kg what is its terminal velocity when falling through water? (eta=1xx10^(-3)Pa-s)

Find the direction in which a straight line must be drawn through the point (-1,2) . So that its point of intersection with the line x+y=4 may be at a distance of 3 units from this point.

STATEMENT-1: The stream of water flowing at high speed from a garden hose pipe tends to spread like a fountain when held vertically up, but tends to narrow down when held vertically down. STATEMENT-2: In any steady flow of an incompressible fluid, the volume flow rate of the fluid remains constant.

Consider the lines L_1 : r=a+lambdab and L_2 : r=b+mua , where a and b are non zero and non collinear vectors. Statement-I L_1 and L_2 are coplanar and the plane containing these lines passes through origin. Statement-II (a-b)cdot(atimesb)=0 and the plane containing L_1 and L_2 is [r a b]=0 which passe through origin.

In figure S is a monochromatic point source emitting light of wavelength lambda=500 nm . A thin lens of circular shape and focal length 0.10 m is cut into two identical halves L_(1) and L_(2) by a plane passing through a diameter. The two halves are placed symmetrically about the central axis SO with a gap of 0.5 mm . The distance along the axis from S to L_(1) and L_(2) is 0.15 m , while that from L_(1) and L_(2) to O is 1.30 m . The screen at O is normal to SO . (a) If the 3^(rd) intensity maximum occurs at point P on screen, find distance OP . (b) If the gap between L_(1) and L_(2) is reduced from its original value of 0.5 mm , will the distance OP increases, decreases or remain the same?

A straight line moves so that the sum of the reciprocals of its intercepts made on axes is constant. Show that the line passes through a fixed point. Thinking Process : For line which makes intercepts on axis (x)/(a) + (y)/( b) = 1 If (1)/( a) + (1)/( b) = constant ( (1)/(k) ) then ( k)/( a) + (k)/( b) =1 and we say if passes from point (k,k) .
