Two vehicles, each moving with speed u on the same horizontal straight road, are approaching each other. Wind blows along the road with velocity w. One of these vehicles blows a whistle of frequency f1. An observer in the other vehicle hears the frequency of the whistle to be f2. The speed of sound in still air is V. The correct statement(s) is(are)
The figure below shows the variation of specific heat capacity (C) of a solid as a function of temperature (T). The temperature is increased continuously from 0 to 500 K at a constant rate. Ignoring any volume change, the following statement(s) is(are) correct to a reasonable approximation.
The radius of the orbit of an electron in a hydrogen-like atom is 4.5a0, where a0 is the Bohr radius. Its orbital angular momentum is $${{3h} \over {2\pi }}$$. It is given that h is Planck constant and R is Rydberg constant. The possible wavelength(s), when the atom de-excites, is(are)
A thermal power plant produces electric power of 600 kW at 4000 V, which is to be transported to a place 20 km away from the power plant for consumers' usage. It can be transported either directly with a cable of large current carrying capacity or by using a combination of step-up and step-down transformers at the two ends. The drawback of the direct transmission is the large energy dissipation. In the method using transformers, the dissipation is much smaller. In this method, a step-up transformer is used at the plant side so that the current is reduced to a smaller value. At the consumers' end, a step-down transformer is used to supply power to the consumers at the specified lower voltage. It is reasonable to assume that the power cable is purely resistive and the transformers are ideal with power factor unity. All the currents and voltages mentioned are rms values.
If the direct transmission method with a cable of resistance 0.4 $$\Omega$$ km$$-$$1 is used, the power dissipation (in %) during transmission is
