Two resistors 400$$\Omega $$ and 800$$\Omega $$ are connected in series across a 6 V battery. The potential difference measured by a voltmeter of 10 k$$\Omega $$ across 400 $$\Omega $$ resistor is close to :

A uniform rod of length ‘$$l$$’ is pivoted at one of its ends on a vertical shaft of negligible radius. When the shaft rotates at angular speed $$\omega $$ the rod makes an angle $$\theta $$ with it (see figure). To find $$\theta $$ equate the rate of change of angular momentum (direction going into the paper) $${{m{l^2}} \over {12}}{\omega ^2}\sin \theta \cos \theta $$ about the centre of mass (CM) to the torque provided by the horizontal and vertical forces F_H and F_V about the CM. The value of $$\theta $$ is then such that :

Which of the following will NOT be observed when a multimeter (operating in resistance measuring mode) probes connected across a component, are just reversed?

If a semiconductor photodiode can detect a photon with a maximum wavelength of 400 nm, then its band gap energy is :

Planck’s constant h = 6.63 $$ \times $$ 10^–34 J.s. Speed of light c = 3 $$ \times $$ 10⁸ m/s
