A current of 10 A flow around a closed path in a circuit which is in the horizontal plane as shown in the figure. The circuit consists of eight alternative arcs of radii r_(1)=0.08m and r_(2)=0.12m . Each subtends the same angle at the centre. An infinitely long straight wire carrying a current of 10 A is passing throgh the entre of the above circuit vertically with the direction of the current being into the plane of the circuit. What is the force acting on the wire at the centre due to the current in the circuit? What is the force acting on the arc AC and the straight segment CD due to the current at the centre?

Each question contains STATEMENTS-1 (Assertion) and STATEMENT -2 (Reason). Examine the statements carefully and mark the correct answer according to the instructions given below: STATEMENT-1: Catalyst may increase the rate constant to a large extent. STATEMENT-2:By using suitable catalyst, we can significantly increase yield. a) If both the statements are TRUE and STATEMENT-2 is the correct explanation of STATEMENT-1 b) If both the statement are TRUE but STATEMENT-2 is NOT the correct explanation of STATEMENT-1 c) If STATEMENT-1 is TRUE and STATEMENT-2 is FALSE d) If STATEMENT-1 is FALSE and STATEMENT-2 is TRUE

In a development plan of a city, a contractor has taken a contract to construct certain houses for which he needs building materials like stones, sand etc. There are three firms A, B, C that can supply him these materials. At one time these firms A, B, C supplied him 40, 35 and 25 truck loads of stones and 10, 5 and 8 truck load of sand respectively. If the cost of one truckload of stone and sand are Rs 1200 and 500 respectively, then find the total amount paid by the contractor to each of these firms A, B, C separately.

In these question, a statement of assertion followed by a statement of reason is given .Choose the correct answer out of the following choices: Assertion and reason both are correct statements and reason is correct explanation for assertion. Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation for assertion. Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement. Assertion is wrong statement but reason is correct statement. Assertion: the mirror formula can be applied to a plane mirror. Reason: A lane mirror is a spherical mirror of infinite focal length
