A metal rod of weight ' $W$ ' is supported by two parallel knife-edges A and B . The rod is in equilibrium in horizontal position. The distance ' between two knife-edges is ' $r$ '. The centre of mass of the rod is at a distance ' $x$ ' from $A$. The normal reaction on A is

Potential difference between the points A and B is nearly

An ideal gas $(\gamma=1.5)$ is expanded adiabatically. To reduce root mean square velocity of molecules two times, the gas should be expanded

An e.m.f. $E=E_0 \cos \omega t$ is applied to circuit containing L and R in series. If $\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{L}}=2 \mathrm{R}$, then the power dissipated in the circuit is
