A ball is shown at an angle `theta` up to the top of a cliff of height L, from a point at a distance. L from the base, as shown in figure. Assuming that one of the following quantities is the initial speed required to make the ball hit right at the edge of the cliff, which one is it :-

A

`sqrt((gL)/(2(tan theta-1)))`

B

`1/(cos theta) sqrt((gL)/(2(tan theta-1)))`

C

`1/(cos theta) sqrt((gL)/(2(tan theta+1)))`

A fixed thermally conducting cylinder has a radius R and height L_0 . The cylinder is open at its bottom and has a small hole at its top. A piston of mass M is held at a distance L from the top surface, as shown in the figure. The atmospheric pressure is P_0 . While the piston is at a distance 2L from the top, the hole at the top is sealed. The piston is then released, to a position where it can stay in equilibrium. In this condition, the distance of the piston from the top is
