A cell having an emf $$\varepsilon $$ and internal resistance r is connected across a variable external resistance R. As the resistance R is increased, the plot of potential difference V across R is given by

An ideal gas goes from state A to state B via three different processes as indicated in the P-V diagram.



If Q₁, Q₂, Q₃ indicate the heat absorbed by the gas along the three processes and $$\Delta $$U₁, $$\Delta $$U₂, $$\Delta $$U₃ indicate the change in internal energy along the three processes respectively, then

The equation of a simple harmonic wave is given by

y = 3 sin$${\pi \over 2}$$(50t $$-$$ x),

where x and y are in metres and t is in seconds. The ratio of maximum particle velocity to the wave velocity is

A slab of stone of area 0.36 m² and thickness 0.1 m is exposed on the lower surface to steam at 100^oC. A block of ice at 0^oC rests on the upper surface of the slab. In one hour 4.8 kg of ice is melted. The thermal conductivity of slab is
(Given latent heat of fusion of ice = 3.36 $$ \times $$ 10⁵ J kg^$$-$$1)
