Why does a child feel more pain when she falls down on a hard cement floor, than when she falls on the soft muddy ground in the garden ?

Assertion: In adiabatic compression the internal energy and temperature of the system get decreased. Reason: The adiabatic compression is a slow process.

A wooden wheel of radius R is made of two semicircular part . The two parts are held together by a ring made of a metal strip of cross sectional area S and length L. L is slightly less than 2piR . To fit the ring on the wheel, it is heated so that its temperature rises by DeltaT and it just steps over the wheel. As it cools down to surrounding temperature, it process the semicircle parts together. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is alpha , and it Young's modulus is Y, the force that one part of the wheel applies on the other part is :

A monoenergetic (18 keV) electron beam initially in the horizontal direction is subjected to a horizontal magnetic field of 0.04 G normal to the initial direction. Estimate the up or down deflection of the beam over a distance of 30 cm (m_(e) = 9.11 xx 10^(-31) kg) . [Note : Data in this exercise are so chosen that the answer will give you an idea of the effect of earth's magnetic field on the motion of the electron beam from the electron gun to the screen in a TV set.)

To demonstrate the process of thermoelectric production with a model. Apparatus and materials: Pressure cooker, pipe, tennis ball, metal sheet, dynamo, bulb. Procedure : rarr Take a table-tennis ball and make three slits into it. rarr Put semicircular fins cut out of a metal sheet into these slits. rarr Pivot the tennis ball on an axle through its centre with a straight metal wire fixed to a rigid support. Ensure that the tennis ball rotates freely about the axle. rarr Now connect a cycle dynamo to this. rarr Connect a bulb in series. rarr Direct a jet of water or steam produced in a pressure cooker at the fins. Note down your observation. Observation : The bulb gets lighted. What do the simplest turbines have ?
