In the following questions, each question contains Statement I(assertion) and StatementII(reason). Each questions has four choices a, b, c, and d out of which only one is correct. Statement I: A block of mass m starts moving on a rough horizontal surface with a velocity v. It stops due to friction between the block and the surface after moving through a certain distance. The surface is now titled to an angle of 30^@ with the horizontal and the same block is made to go up on the surface with the same initial velocity v. The decrease in mechanical energy in the second situation is smaller than that in the first situation. Statement II: The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface decreases with the increase in the angel of inclination.

Radiation from hydrogen gas excited to first excited state is used for illuminating certain photoelectric plate . When the radiation from same unknown hydrogen-like gas excited to the same level is used to expose the same plate , it is found that the de Broglie wavelength of the fastest photoelectron has decreased 2.3 time gt It is given that the energy corresponding to the longest wavelength of the Lyman series of the known gas is 3 times the ionization energy of the hydrogen gas (13.6 eV) . Find the work function of photoelectric plate in eV . [Take (2.3)^(2) = 5.25]

A particle known as mu mean has a charge equal to that of no electron and mass 208 times the mass of the electron B moves in a circular orbit around a nucleus of charge +3e Take the mass of the nucles to be infinite Assuming that the bohr's model is applicable to this system (a)drive an eqression for the radius of the nth Bohr orbit (b) find the value of a for which the redius of the orbit it approninately the same as that at the first bohr for a hydrogen atom (c) find the wavelength of the radiation emitted when the u - mean jump from the orbit to the first orbit

A hydraulic press can lift 100 kg when a mass 'm' is placed on the smaller piston. It can lift _____kg when the diameter of the larger piston is increased by 4 times and that of the smaller piston is decreased by 4 times keeping the same mass 'm' on the smaller piston.

A water tank is supported by four pillars. The pillars are strong enough to sustain ten times the stress developed in them when the tank is completely full. An engineer decides to increase the every dimension of the tank and the pillars by hundred times so as to store more water. Do you think he has taken a right decision? Assume that material used in construction of the tank and pillars remain same.

Two particles are projected simu ltaneously from points A and B respectively and they move in same plane. Find. (a) the separation when they are closest to each other. (b) the time elapsed to come closest to each other. (c) condition that they collide in air. (d) initial velocity of approch between the particles. (e) initial angu lar velocity of first particle w.r.t. second particle.
