Consider two solid spheres P and Q each of density 8 gm cm^–3 and diameters 1 cm and 0.5 cm, respectively. Sphere P is dropped into a liquid of density 0.8 gm cm^–3 and viscosity $$\eta $$ = 3 poiseulles. Sphere Q is dropped into a liquid of density 1.6 gm cm^–3 and viscosity $$\eta $$ = 2 poiseulles. The ratio of the terminal velocities of P and Q is

The position vector $$\overrightarrow r $$ of a particle of mass m is given by the following equation $$$\overrightarrow r \left( t \right) = \alpha {t^3}\widehat i + \beta {t^2}\widehat j,$$$where $$\alpha = {{10} \over 3}m{s^{ - 3}}$$, $$\beta = 5\,m{s^{ - 2}}$$ and m = 0.1 kg. At t = 1 s, which of the following statement(s) is(are) true about the particle?

A uniform wooden stick of mass 1.6 kg and length $$l$$ rests in an inclined manner on a smooth, vertical wall of height h ( < $$l$$ ) such that a small portion of the stick extends beyond the wall. The reaction force of the wall on the stick is perpendicular to the stick. The stick makes an angle of $$30^\circ $$ with the wall and the bottom of the stick is on a rough floor. The reaction of the wall on the stick is equal in magnitude to the reaction of the floor on the stick. The ratio $${h \over l}$$ and the frictional force f at the bottom of the stick are ( g =10 ms^-2 )

A parallel beam of light is incident from air at an anglea on the side PQ of a right angled triangular prism of refractive index n = $$\sqrt 2 $$. Light undergoes total internal reflection in the prism at the face PR when a has a minimum value of 45°. The angle q of the prism is :
