A satellite of mass M is in a circular orbit of radius R about the centre of the earth. A meteorite of the same mass, falling towards the earth, collides with the satellite completely inelastically. The speeds of the satellite and the meteorite are the same, just before the collision. The subsequent motion of the combined body will be :

A 100 V carrier wave is made to vary between 160 V and 40 V by a modulating signal. What is the modulation index ?

There is a uniform spherically symmetric surface charge density at a distance R₀ from the origin. The charge distribution is initially at rest and starts expanding because of mutual repulsion. The figure that represents best the speed V (R(t)) of the distribution as a function of its instantaneous radius R (t) 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 ?
