The ratio of surface tensions of mercury and water is given to be 7.5 while the ratio of thier densities is 13.6. Their contact angles, with glass, are close to 135° and 0°, respectively. It is observed that mercury gets depressed by an amount h in a capillary tube of radius r₁, while water rises by the same amount h in a capillary tube of radius r₂. The ratio, (r₁/r₂), is then close to :

A 25 × 10^–3 m³ volume cylinder is filled with 1 mol of O₂ gas at room temperature (300K). The molecular diameter of O₂, and its root mean square speed, are found to be 0.3 nm, and 200 m/s, respectively. What is the average collision rate (per second) for an O₂ molecule ?

In the given circuit, an ideal voltmeter connected across the 10$$\Omega $$ resistance reads 2V. The internal resistance r, of each cell is:

n moles of an ideal gas with constant volume heat capcity C_V undergo an isobaric expansion by certain volume. The ratio of the work done in the process, to the heat supplied is :
