Assertion`:-` The cord between `A` and `B` more likely to snap with a gradual downward pull at `D`.

Reason`:-` When someone gives the lower cord a sudden downward pull, the tension in the lower cord inceaces suddenly.

A

If both Assertion & Reason are True & the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

If both Assertion & Reason are True but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertiion.

C

If Assertion is True but the Reason is False.

If two glass plates have water between them and are separated by very small distance (see figure). It is very difficult to pull them apart. It is because the water in between forms cylindrical surface on the side that gives rise ot lower pressure in the water in comparison to atmosphere. If the radius of the cylindrical surface is R and surface tension of water is T then the pressure in water between the plates is lowr by:

Two small insulating spheres are attached to silk threads. The spheres have equal masses of 40 g and have electric charges of q_(1)=+2.0 muC and q_(2)=-2.0 mu C . The spheres are brought into the initial positions shown in Figure(a), with a vertical separation of 15 cm between them. In figure, the upper thread is slowly pulled upward, while point B is kept fixed. When point a has been raised through a height h, the lower sphere suddenly falls, as shown in Figure (b). The height h, is closest to:

A cord of negligible mass is wound round the rim of a fly wheel of mass 20 kg and radius 20 cm. A steady pull of 25 N is applied on the cord as shown in Fig. 7.35. The flywheel is mounted on a horizontal axle with frictionless bearings. (a) Compute the angular acceleration of the wheel. (b) Find the work done by the pull, when 2m of the cord is unwound. (c) Find also the kinetic energy of the wheel at this point. Assume that the wheel starts from rest. (d) Compare answers to parts (b) and (c).

A mass of 2 kg suspended with thread AB (figure). Thread CD of the same type is attached to the other end of 2 kg mass. Lower thread is pulled gradually, harder and harder in the downward direction, so as to apply force on AB. Which of the threads will break and why ?
