For a simple pendulum, a graph is plotted between its kinetic energy $$(KE)$$ and potential energy $$(PE)$$ against its displacement $$d.$$ Which one of the following represents these correctly?
$$(graphs$$ $$are$$ $$schematic$$ $$and$$ $$not$$ $$drawn$$ $$to$$ $$scale)$$

From a solid sphere of mass $$M$$ and radius $$R,$$ a spherical portion of radius $$R/2$$ is removed, as shown in the figure. Taking gravitational potential $$V=0$$ at $$r = \infty ,$$ the potential at the center of the cavity thus formed is:
($$G=gravitational $$ $$constant$$)

A solid body of constant heat capacity $$1$$ $$J/{}^ \circ C$$ is being heated by keeping it in contact with reservoirs in two ways:
$$(i)$$ Sequentially keeping in contact with $$2$$ reservoirs such that each reservoir
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$supplies same amount of heat.
$$(ii)$$ Sequentially keeping in contact with $$8$$ reservoirs such that each reservoir
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$supplies same amount of heat.
In both the cases body is brought from initial temperature $${100^ \circ }C$$ to final temperature $${200^ \circ }C$$. Entropy change of the body in the two cases respectively is :

Consider an ideal gas confined in an isolated closed chamber. As the gas undergoes an adiabatic expansion, the average time of collision between molecules increases as $${V^q},$$ where $$V$$ is the volume of the gas. The value of $$q$$ is: $$\left( {\gamma = {{{C_p}} \over {{C_v}}}} \right)$$
