In a dilute gas at pressure P and temperature T, the mean time between successive collisions of a molecule varies with T as :

A student measuring the diameter of a pencil of circular cross-section with the help of a vernier scale records the following four readings 5.50 mm, 5.55 mm, 5.45 mm, 5.65 mm. The average of these four readings is 5.5375 mm and the standard deviation of the data is 0.07395 mm. The average diameter
of the pencil should therefore be recorded as :

The linear mass density of a thin rod AB of length L varies from A to B as
$$\lambda \left( x \right) = {\lambda _0}\left( {1 + {x \over L}} \right)$$, where x is the distance from A. If M is the mass of the rod then its moment of inertia about an axis passing through A and perpendicular to the rod is :

Consider the force F on a charge 'q' due to a uniformly charged spherical shell of radius R carrying charge Q distributed uniformly over it. Which one of the following statements is true for F, if 'q' is placed at distance r from the centre of the shell?
