Two cells $A$ and $B$ are connected in the secondary circuit of a potentiometer one at a time,and the balancing lengths are $400 \ cm$ and $440 \ cm$ respectively. The emf of cell $A$ is $1.08 \ V$. The emf of the second cell $B$ in volts is:

An observer moves towards a stationary source of sound with a speed $1/5^{th}$ of the speed of sound. The wavelength and frequency of the source emitted are $\lambda$ and $f$ respectively. The apparent frequency and wavelength recorded by the observer are respectively:

Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be the roots of the equation $px^2 + qx + r = 0$ (where $p \neq 0$). If $p, q, r$ are in $A.P.$ and $\frac{1}{\alpha} + \frac{1}{\beta} = 4$,then the value of $|\alpha - \beta|$ is

Which of the following compounds when heated with $CO$ at $150^{\circ} C$ and $500 \ atm$ pressure in the presence of $BF_3$ forms ethyl propionate?

If $A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 2 & 1 & 0 \\ 3 & 2 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$,then $\det(A)$ is equal to

Two slabs $A$ and $B$ of different materials but of the same thickness are joined end to end to form a composite slab. The thermal conductivities of $A$ and $B$ are $k_1$ and $k_2$ respectively. $A$ steady temperature difference of $12^{\circ} C$ is maintained across the composite slab. If $k_1 = \frac{k_2}{2}$,the temperature difference across slab $A$ is (in $^{\circ} C$)
