The least count of the main scale of a screw gauge is 1 mm. The minimum number of divisions on its circular scale required to measure 5 $$\mu $$m diameter of a wire is :

In a meter bridge, the wire of length 1 m has a non-uniform cross-section such that, the variation $${{dR} \over {d\ell }}$$ of its resistance R with length $$\ell $$ is $${{dR} \over {d\ell }}$$ $$ \propto $$ $${1 \over {\sqrt \ell }}$$. Two equal resistances are connected as shown in the figure. The galvanometer has zero deflection when the jockey is at point P. What is the length AP ?

The galvanometer deflection, when key K₁ is closed but K₂ is open, equals $$\theta $$₀ (see figure). On closing K₂ also and adjusting R₂ to 5$$\Omega $$, the deflection in galvanometer becomes $${{{\theta _0}} \over 5}.$$ . The resistance of the galvanometer is, then, given by [Neglect the internal resistance of battery] :

A point source of light, S is placed at distance L in front of the centre of plane mirror of width d which is hanging vertically on a wall. A man walks in front of the mirror along a line parallel to the mirror, at a distance 2L as shown below. The distance over which the man can see the image of the light source in the mirror is
