When a diode is forward biased, it has a voltage drop of 0.5 V. The safe limit of current through the diode is 10 mA. If a battery of emf 1.5 V is used in the circuit, the value of minimum resistance to be connected in series with the diode so that the current does not exceed the safe limit is

Moment of inertia of a cylinder of mass M, length L and radius R about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder is
I = $$M\left( {{{{R^2}} \over 4} + {{{L^2}} \over {12}}} \right)$$. If such a cylinder is to be made for a given mass of a material, the ratio $${L \over R}$$ for it to have minimum possible I is

In the circuit shown in the figure, the total charge is 750 $$\mu $$C and the voltage across capacitor C₂ is 20 V. Then the charge on capacitor C₂ is :

A balloon filled with helium (32^oC and 1.7 atm.) bursts. Immediately afterwards the expansion of helium can be considered as
