MHT CET 2020 Physics Question Paper with Answer and Solution

(C) For the water not to fall from the bucket at the highest point of the vertical circle,the centripetal force must be at least equal to the gravitational force acting on the water.
At the highest point,the condition for the water to remain in the bucket is $m \omega^2 r \geq mg$.
The minimum angular velocity $\omega$ is given by $m \omega^2 r = mg$,which simplifies to $\omega = \sqrt{\frac{g}{r}}$.
Since the angular frequency $\omega$ is related to the frequency $f$ by the formula $\omega = 2 \pi f$,we can write $2 \pi f = \sqrt{\frac{g}{r}}$.
Therefore,the minimum frequency of revolution is $f = \frac{1}{2 \pi} \sqrt{\frac{g}{r}}$.

(D) When a cylindrical vessel containing liquid is rotated at an angular speed $\omega$ about its vertical axis,the liquid particles at a distance $r$ from the axis rotate with a linear velocity $v = r\omega$.
Applying Bernoulli's principle in the rotating frame of reference,the effective pressure at a point at distance $r$ from the axis is given by $P(r) = P_0 + \frac{1}{2}\rho r^2 \omega^2$,where $P_0$ is the pressure at the center $(r=0)$.
At the edge of the vessel,$r = R$,so the pressure is $P_R = P_0 + \frac{1}{2}\rho R^2 \omega^2$.
The difference in pressure between the edge and the center is $\Delta P = P_R - P_0 = \frac{1}{2}\rho R^2 \omega^2$.
This pressure difference is balanced by the hydrostatic pressure difference due to the height difference $h$ of the liquid column,given by $\Delta P = \rho g h$.
Equating the two expressions: $\rho g h = \frac{1}{2}\rho R^2 \omega^2$.
Solving for $h$,we get $h = \frac{R^2 \omega^2}{2g}$.

(C) Compressibility $\beta$ is defined as the reciprocal of the Bulk Modulus $K$,i.e.,$\beta = \frac{1}{K}$.
Given:
Compressibility $\beta = 5 \times 10^{-10} \ m^2/N$
Change in pressure $\Delta P = 15 \times 10^6 \ Pa$
Initial volume $V = 100 \ ml$
The formula for volumetric strain is $\frac{\Delta V}{V} = -\beta \Delta P$.
Substituting the values:
$\frac{\Delta V}{100 \ ml} = -(5 \times 10^{-10} \ m^2/N) \times (15 \times 10^6 \ Pa)$
$\frac{\Delta V}{100 \ ml} = -75 \times 10^{-4} = -0.0075$
$\Delta V = -0.0075 \times 100 \ ml = -0.75 \ ml$.
The negative sign indicates a decrease in volume.
Therefore,the change in volume is a $0.75 \ ml$ decrease.

(A) The absolute pressure $P$ at a depth $h$ is given by the formula: $P = P_{atm} + \rho gh$.
Given values are: $h = 1 \,km = 1000 \,m$,$\rho = 10^{3} \,kg/m^{3}$,$g = 10 \,m/s^{2}$,and $P_{atm} = 1.01 \times 10^{5} \,N/m^{2}$.
Calculating the gauge pressure (pressure due to water column): $P_{gauge} = \rho gh = 10^{3} \times 10 \times 1000 = 10^{7} \,N/m^{2}$.
Now,adding the atmospheric pressure: $P = 1.01 \times 10^{5} + 10^{7} = 0.0101 \times 10^{7} + 10^{7} = 1.0101 \times 10^{7} \,N/m^{2}$.
Rounding to the appropriate significant figures,we get $P \approx 1.011 \times 10^{7} \,N/m^{2}$.

(C) The force required to pull a wire of length $L$ from the surface of a liquid with surface tension $T$ is given by the formula $F = 2TL$.
The factor of $2$ is used because the water surface is in contact with both sides of the wire.
Given: $L = 10 \text{ cm} = 0.1 \text{ m}$ and $T = 75 \times 10^{-3} \text{ N/m}$.
Substituting the values: $F = 2 \times (75 \times 10^{-3} \text{ N/m}) \times (0.1 \text{ m})$.
$F = 2 \times 75 \times 10^{-4} \text{ N} = 150 \times 10^{-4} \text{ N} = 1.5 \times 10^{-2} \text{ N}$.

(A) Let the radius of the large drop be $R'$. Since the volume remains constant,the volume of the large drop equals the sum of the volumes of the two small drops:
$\frac{4}{3} \pi R'^3 = 2 \times \frac{4}{3} \pi R^3$
$R'^3 = 2 R^3 \implies R' = 2^{1/3} R$
Total surface energy before $(E_i)$ = $2 \times (4 \pi R^2 T)$,where $T$ is the surface tension.
Total surface energy after $(E_f)$ = $4 \pi R'^2 T$.
The ratio of surface energies is $\frac{E_i}{E_f} = \frac{2 \times 4 \pi R^2 T}{4 \pi R'^2 T} = \frac{2 R^2}{R'^2}$.
Substituting $R' = 2^{1/3} R$:
Ratio = $\frac{2 R^2}{(2^{1/3} R)^2} = \frac{2 R^2}{2^{2/3} R^2} = 2^{1 - 2/3} = 2^{1/3}$.
Thus,the ratio is $2^{1/3} : 1$.

(C) Under isothermal conditions,the temperature and surface tension $T$ remain constant. When two soap bubbles coalesce to form a larger bubble,the total surface area changes,but the total number of moles of air inside remains constant. Since the process is isothermal,the pressure $P$ inside a soap bubble of radius $r$ is given by $P = P_{0} + 4T/r$. The total number of moles $n$ is given by $PV = nRT$. For a soap bubble,the excess pressure is $4T/r$,so the total pressure is $P_{atm} + 4T/r$. The volume is $V = (4/3)\pi r^{3}$.
Assuming the external pressure $P_{atm}$ is negligible or the process is governed by the conservation of surface energy in the context of bubble coalescence,the surface energy is $U = 2 \times (4\pi r^{2}T) = 8\pi r^{2}T$ (since a soap bubble has two surfaces).
Equating the initial and final surface energies: $8\pi r^{2}T = 8\pi r_{1}^{2}T + 8\pi r_{2}^{2}T$.
Dividing by $8\pi T$,we get $r^{2} = r_{1}^{2} + r_{2}^{2}$.
Therefore,the radius of the larger bubble is $r = (r_{1}^{2} + r_{2}^{2})^{1/2}$.

(C) The total volume of the mercury remains constant during the process of breaking the drop.
Volume of the large drop = $n \times$ Volume of one small droplet.
$\frac{4}{3} \pi R^{3} = n \times \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$
By canceling $\frac{4}{3} \pi$ from both sides,we get:
$R^{3} = n r^{3}$
Taking the cube root on both sides:
$R = n^{\frac{1}{3}} r$
Therefore,the radius of each small droplet is:
$r = \frac{R}{n^{\frac{1}{3}}}$

(A) The height $h$ to which a liquid rises in a capillary tube is given by the formula $h = \frac{2T \cos \theta}{r \rho g}$, where $r$ is the radius of the tube.
This implies $h \propto \frac{1}{r}$.
Since the cross-sectional area $A = \pi r^2$, we have $r = \sqrt{\frac{A}{\pi}}$, which means $r \propto \sqrt{A}$.
Substituting this into the proportionality, we get $h \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{A}}$.
Given $h_1 = 15 \,mm = 15 \times 10^{-3} \,m$ for area $A_1 = A$.
For the new area $A_2 = A / 3$, we have the ratio $\frac{A_1}{A_2} = 3$.
Using the relation $\frac{h_2}{h_1} = \sqrt{\frac{A_1}{A_2}}$, we get $\frac{h_2}{h_1} = \sqrt{3}$.
Therefore, $h_2 = h_1 \times \sqrt{3} = 15 \times 10^{-3} \times \sqrt{3} \,m = 15 \sqrt{3} \times 10^{-3} \,m$.

(D) The height of the liquid column in a capillary tube is given by the formula: $h = \frac{2 T \cos \theta}{r \rho g}$.
From this expression,it is clear that $h \propto \frac{1}{g}$.
When a lift moves downward with an acceleration '$a$',the effective acceleration due to gravity becomes $g_{eff} = g - a$.
Since $a < g$,the effective gravity $g_{eff}$ is less than the actual gravity $g$.
As $g_{eff} < g$,the value of '$h$' increases because '$h$' is inversely proportional to the acceleration due to gravity.

(B) Let $n$ be the number of small drops of radius $r$ that coalesce to form a big drop of radius $R$. Here,$n = 2$.
By conservation of volume: $n \times (\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3) = \frac{4}{3} \pi R^3$.
Substituting $n = 2$: $2r^3 = R^3$,which gives $R = 2^{1/3} r$.
The surface energy $E$ is given by $E = T \times A$,where $T$ is surface tension and $A$ is surface area.
Initial surface energy $E_1 = n \times (4 \pi r^2 T) = 2 \times 4 \pi r^2 T = 8 \pi r^2 T$.
Final surface energy $E_2 = 4 \pi R^2 T = 4 \pi (2^{1/3} r)^2 T = 4 \pi (2^{2/3} r^2) T = 4 \times 2^{2/3} \pi r^2 T$.
The ratio of total surface energies after and before the change is $\frac{E_2}{E_1} = \frac{4 \times 2^{2/3} \pi r^2 T}{8 \pi r^2 T} = \frac{2^{2/3}}{2} = 2^{2/3 - 1} = 2^{-1/3}$.
Thus,the ratio is $2^{-1/3} : 1$.

(C) The excess pressure $p$ inside a spherical drop of radius $r$ is given by $p = \frac{2T}{r}$,where $T$ is the surface tension.
Given that the excess pressure of the first drop is three times that of the second drop,we have $p_1 = 3p_2$.
Substituting the formula for excess pressure: $\frac{2T}{r_1} = 3 \times \frac{2T}{r_2}$.
This simplifies to $\frac{1}{r_1} = \frac{3}{r_2}$,which implies $r_2 = 3r_1$ or $\frac{r_1}{r_2} = \frac{1}{3}$.
The surface area $A$ of a spherical drop is given by $A = 4\pi r^2$.
The ratio of their surface areas is $\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \frac{4\pi r_1^2}{4\pi r_2^2} = \left(\frac{r_1}{r_2}\right)^2$.
Substituting the ratio of radii: $\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^2 = \frac{1}{9}$.

(D) The excess pressure $P$ inside a soap bubble of radius $R$ is given by $P = \frac{4T}{R}$,where $T$ is the surface tension of the soap solution.
Given that the excess pressure in the first bubble $(P_{1})$ is twice that of the second bubble $(P_{2})$,we have $P_{1} = 2P_{2}$.
Substituting the formula for excess pressure: $\frac{4T}{R_{1}} = 2 \times \frac{4T}{R_{2}}$.
Simplifying this,we get $\frac{1}{R_{1}} = \frac{2}{R_{2}}$,which implies $\frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}} = 2$ or $R_{2} = 2R_{1}$.
The volume $V$ of a spherical bubble is given by $V = \frac{4}{3} \pi R^{3}$.
The ratio of the volumes is $\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}} = \frac{\frac{4}{3} \pi R_{1}^{3}}{\frac{4}{3} \pi R_{2}^{3}} = \left( \frac{R_{1}}{R_{2}} \right)^{3}$.
Since $\frac{R_{1}}{R_{2}} = \frac{1}{2}$,the ratio of volumes is $\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{3} = \frac{1}{8}$.

(C) Let $r$ be the radius of each small drop and $R$ be the radius of the big drop.
Since the volume remains constant,the volume of $1000$ small drops equals the volume of the big drop: $1000 \times (\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3) = \frac{4}{3} \pi R^3$.
This simplifies to $R^3 = 1000 r^3$,so $R = 10r$.
The initial surface energy $U_i$ of $1000$ small drops is $U_i = 1000 \times (4 \pi r^2 T)$,where $T$ is the surface tension.
The final surface energy $U_f$ of the big drop is $U_f = 4 \pi R^2 T$.
Substituting $R = 10r$,we get $U_f = 4 \pi (10r)^2 T = 400 \pi r^2 T$.
The ratio of final surface energy to initial surface energy is $\frac{U_f}{U_i} = \frac{400 \pi r^2 T}{1000 \times 4 \pi r^2 T} = \frac{400}{4000} = \frac{1}{10}$.

(B) The height of the liquid column in a capillary tube is given by $h = \frac{2T \cos \theta}{r \rho g}$.
From this expression,we can see that $h \propto \frac{1}{g}$.
Therefore,the ratio of the heights is $\frac{h_{1}}{h_{2}} = \frac{g_{2}}{g_{1}}$.
At a depth $d$ below the surface of the Earth,the acceleration due to gravity is given by $g_{2} = g_{1} \left(1 - \frac{d}{R}\right)$,where $g_{1}$ is the acceleration due to gravity at the surface.
Substituting this into the ratio,we get $\frac{h_{1}}{h_{2}} = \frac{g_{1}(1 - d/R)}{g_{1}} = 1 - \frac{d}{R}$.

(D) When two mercury drops merge to form a single larger drop,the total volume of the mercury remains conserved.
Let $R$ be the radius of the resultant big drop.
The volume of the first drop is $V_{1} = \frac{4}{3} \pi R_{1}^{3}$.
The volume of the second drop is $V_{2} = \frac{4}{3} \pi R_{2}^{3}$.
The volume of the resultant drop is $V = \frac{4}{3} \pi R^{3}$.
Since the total volume is conserved,$V = V_{1} + V_{2}$.
$\frac{4}{3} \pi R^{3} = \frac{4}{3} \pi R_{1}^{3} + \frac{4}{3} \pi R_{2}^{3}$.
Canceling $\frac{4}{3} \pi$ from both sides,we get $R^{3} = R_{1}^{3} + R_{2}^{3}$.
Therefore,$R = (R_{1}^{3} + R_{2}^{3})^{\frac{1}{3}}$.

(A) sphere of influence is defined as a sphere with a radius equal to the molecular range,centered at a specific molecule.
Within this sphere,the central molecule experiences attractive intermolecular forces from all other molecules present inside the sphere.
Since the sphere is centered on the molecule,the distribution of surrounding molecules is symmetric,resulting in a net force of zero on the central molecule.
However,the interaction itself is an attractive force exerted by the other molecules located within this sphere of influence.

(B) The height $h$ to which a liquid rises in a capillary tube is given by the formula $h = \frac{2T \cos \theta}{r \rho g}$, where $r$ is the radius of the tube.
Since $h \propto \frac{1}{r}$, and the area of cross-section $A = \pi r^2$, we have $r = \sqrt{\frac{A}{\pi}}$, which implies $r \propto \sqrt{A}$.
Therefore, $h \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{A}}$, or $h_1 \sqrt{A_1} = h_2 \sqrt{A_2}$.
Given $h_1 = 2.2 \text{ cm}$ and $A_2 = \frac{1}{4} A_1$, we have $\sqrt{A_2} = \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{A_1}$.
Substituting these values: $2.2 \times \sqrt{A_1} = h_2 \times \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{A_1}$.
Solving for $h_2$: $h_2 = 2.2 \times 2 = 4.4 \text{ cm}$.

(A) The height $h$ to which a liquid rises in a capillary tube is given by the formula $h = \frac{2T \cos \theta}{r \rho g}$, where $T$ is surface tension, $\theta$ is the contact angle, $r$ is the radius of the tube, $\rho$ is the density, and $g$ is acceleration due to gravity.
From this, we see that $h \propto \frac{1}{r}$.
The cross-sectional area $A$ is given by $A = \pi r^2$, which implies $r \propto \sqrt{A}$.
Substituting this into the height relation, we get $h \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{A}}$, or $h_1 \sqrt{A_1} = h_2 \sqrt{A_2}$.
Given $h_1 = 3 \,cm$ and $A_2 = \frac{1}{9} A_1$, we have $\sqrt{A_2} = \frac{1}{3} \sqrt{A_1}$.
Substituting these values: $3 \times \sqrt{A_1} = h_2 \times \frac{1}{3} \sqrt{A_1}$.
Solving for $h_2$: $h_2 = 3 \times 3 = 9 \,cm$.

(C) The excess pressure inside a liquid drop of radius $r$ is given by $\Delta P = \frac{2T}{r} = 9$ units. (Note: For a liquid drop, the formula is $\frac{2T}{r}$, though the problem uses $9$ as a constant value for the expression).
Let the radius of the smaller drop be $r$ and the radius of the bigger drop be $R$.
When $27$ smaller drops combine to form a bigger drop, the volume remains conserved:
$27 \times (\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3) = \frac{4}{3} \pi R^3$
$27 r^3 = R^3$
Taking the cube root on both sides, we get $R = 3r$.
The excess pressure inside the bigger drop is $\Delta P' = \frac{2T}{R} = \frac{2T}{3r}$.
Since $\frac{2T}{r} = 9$, we substitute this value:
$\Delta P' = \frac{9}{3} = 3$ units.

(A) Let the radius of each small drop be $r$ and the radius of the large drop be $R$. Since the volume of mercury remains constant,the volume of the large drop equals the sum of the volumes of the two small drops:
$\frac{4}{3} \pi R^3 = 2 \times \left( \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \right)$
$R^3 = 2r^3 \implies R = 2^{1/3} r$
The initial total surface energy $E_i$ of the two small drops is:
$E_i = 2 \times (4 \pi r^2 T) = 8 \pi r^2 T$
The final surface energy $E_f$ of the single large drop is:
$E_f = 4 \pi R^2 T = 4 \pi (2^{1/3} r)^2 T = 4 \pi (2^{2/3} r^2) T = 4 \times 2^{2/3} \pi r^2 T$
The ratio of the total surface energies before and after the change is:
$\frac{E_i}{E_f} = \frac{8 \pi r^2 T}{4 \times 2^{2/3} \pi r^2 T} = \frac{2}{2^{2/3}} = 2^{1 - 2/3} = 2^{1/3} = 2^{1/3} : 1$

(A) The height of water in a capillary tube is given by $h = \frac{2T \cos \theta}{r \rho g}$.
Since $T, \theta, \rho,$ and $g$ are constant,$h \propto \frac{1}{r}$,which implies $hr = \text{constant}$.
For a capillary of radius $r_1 = r$,the height is $h_1 = h$. For a capillary of radius $r_2 = \frac{r}{4}$,the new height $h_2$ is given by $h_1 r_1 = h_2 r_2$.
$h \times r = h_2 \times \frac{r}{4} \implies h_2 = 4h$.
The mass of water in a capillary is given by $m = \text{Volume} \times \text{density} = (\pi r^2 h) \rho$.
For the new capillary,the mass $m'$ is $m' = \pi (r_2)^2 h_2 \rho$.
Substituting $r_2 = \frac{r}{4}$ and $h_2 = 4h$:
$m' = \pi \left(\frac{r}{4}\right)^2 (4h) \rho = \pi \left(\frac{r^2}{16}\right) (4h) \rho = \frac{1}{4} (\pi r^2 h \rho) = \frac{m}{4}$.

(B) soap film has two surfaces: one on the front and one on the back.
When a square frame of side $L$ is dipped in a soap solution, a film is formed across the frame.
The total length of the boundary of the frame is $P = 4L$.
Since the film has two surfaces, the total length of the film in contact with the frame is $2 \times 4L = 8L$.
The force $F$ due to surface tension $T$ is given by $F = T \times (\text{total length})$.
Therefore, $F = T \times 8L = 8TL$.

(C) soap bubble has two surfaces (inner and outer). The work done $W$ in blowing a soap bubble of radius $R$ is given by the formula: $W = \text{Surface Tension} \times \text{Change in Surface Area} \times 2$.
$W = T \times (4 \pi R^2) \times 2 = 8 \pi R^2 T$.
For a bubble of radius $2R$, the work done $W'$ is:
$W' = T \times (4 \pi (2R)^2) \times 2 = 8 \pi (4R^2) T = 32 \pi R^2 T$.
Comparing $W'$ with $W$:
$W' = 4 \times (8 \pi R^2 T) = 4W$.

(C) The length of the wires is $l = 10 \text{ cm} = 0.1 \text{ m}$.
The increase in separation is $\Delta x = 1 \text{ mm} = 10^{-3} \text{ m}$.
$A$ water film has two surfaces,so the change in area $\Delta A$ is given by $2 \times (l \times \Delta x)$.
$\Delta A = 2 \times (0.1 \text{ m} \times 10^{-3} \text{ m}) = 2 \times 10^{-4} \text{ m}^2$.
The work done $W$ is given by $W = T \times \Delta A$,where $T$ is the surface tension.
$W = (7.2 \times 10^{-2} \text{ N/m}) \times (2 \times 10^{-4} \text{ m}^2) = 14.4 \times 10^{-6} \text{ J} = 1.44 \times 10^{-5} \text{ J}$.

(A) Soap acts as a surfactant,which reduces the surface tension of water.
By lowering the surface tension,the soap solution can penetrate more easily into the fibers of the clothes.
This allows the solution to surround and lift the dirt and oil particles away from the fabric,making the cleaning process effective.
Therefore,the correct reason is that the surface tension of the solution is decreased.

(B) The surface tension $T = 3 \times 10^{-2} \,N/m$.
The area of the film $A = 20 \,cm \times 5 \,cm = 100 \,cm^2 = 100 \times 10^{-4} \,m^2 = 10^{-2} \,m^2$.
A soap film has two surfaces, so the total increase in surface area is $2A$.
The work done $W$ is given by $W = T \times (2A)$.
Substituting the values: $W = 3 \times 10^{-2} \times 2 \times 10^{-2} = 6 \times 10^{-4} \,J$.

(D) The height $h$ to which a liquid rises in a capillary tube is given by the formula: $h = \frac{2T \cos \theta}{r \rho g}$.
From this relation,we can see that $h \propto \frac{1}{g}$.
For a lift going down with an acceleration $a$,the effective acceleration due to gravity is $g' = g - a$. Since $g' < g$,the height $h$ will increase.
However,in a satellite orbiting the earth,the effective gravity $g'$ becomes $0$ (weightlessness). As $g' \to 0$,$h \to \infty$. Thus,the height $h$ increases significantly in a satellite compared to the other options where $g$ is only partially reduced.

(D) soap bubble has two surfaces (inner and outer). The work done $W$ in changing the surface area is given by $W = T \times \Delta A \times 2$.
Initial diameter $D_1 = D$, so initial radius $r_1 = D/2$. Initial surface area $A_1 = 4 \pi r_1^2 = 4 \pi (D/2)^2 = \pi D^2$.
Final diameter $D_2 = 2D$, so final radius $r_2 = D$. Final surface area $A_2 = 4 \pi r_2^2 = 4 \pi D^2$.
Change in area $\Delta A = A_2 - A_1 = 4 \pi D^2 - \pi D^2 = 3 \pi D^2$.
Since the bubble has two surfaces, the total change in area is $2 \times \Delta A = 2 \times 3 \pi D^2 = 6 \pi D^2$.
Therefore, the work done $W = T \times 6 \pi D^2 = 6 \pi TD^2$.

(D) The height $h$ to which a liquid rises in a capillary tube is given by the formula: $h = \frac{2T \cos \theta}{r \rho g}$.
Since $T$,$\theta$,$\rho$,and $g$ are constants for the given liquid and tube material,we have the relation $h \propto \frac{1}{r}$,which implies $h_{1} r_{1} = h_{2} r_{2}$.
Given $h_{1} = h$,$r_{1} = r$,and $r_{2} = \frac{r}{3}$.
Substituting these values into the equation: $h \cdot r = h_{2} \cdot \frac{r}{3}$.
Solving for $h_{2}$: $h_{2} = 3h$.

(D) The rise of a liquid in a capillary tube is given by the formula: $h = \frac{2 T \cos \theta}{r \rho g}$.
Rearranging for the angle of contact,we get: $\cos \theta = \frac{h r \rho g}{2 T}$.
Here,$h$ (rise),$r$ (radius),and $T$ (surface tension) are constants for all three liquids.
Thus,$\cos \theta \propto \rho$.
Given the densities are $\varrho_{1} > \varrho_{2} > \varrho_{3}$,it follows that $\cos \theta_{1} > \cos \theta_{2} > \cos \theta_{3}$.
Since the cosine function is a decreasing function for angles between $0$ and $\frac{\pi}{2}$,a larger cosine value corresponds to a smaller angle.
Therefore,$\theta_{1} < \theta_{2} < \theta_{3}$.

(C) The terminal velocity $v_{t}$ of a spherical body falling through a viscous medium is given by Stokes' Law as $v_{t} = \frac{2r^{2}(\rho - \sigma)g}{9\eta}$.
Since the density of the drop $\rho$,density of air $\sigma$,acceleration due to gravity $g$,and coefficient of viscosity $\eta$ are constant for both drops,we have $v_{t} \propto r^{2}$.
Given the ratio of radii is $\frac{r_{1}}{r_{2}} = \frac{1}{2}$.
Therefore,the ratio of their terminal velocities is $\frac{v_{t1}}{v_{t2}} = \left(\frac{r_{1}}{r_{2}}\right)^{2} = \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2} = \frac{1}{4}$.
Thus,the ratio is $1: 4$.

(A) When a sphere falls with terminal velocity,the net force acting on it is zero.
The forces acting on the sphere are:
$1$. Weight $(W = mg)$ acting downwards.
$2$. Buoyant force $(F_{B})$ acting upwards.
$3$. Viscous force $(F_{v})$ acting upwards.
At terminal velocity: $W = F_{B} + F_{v}$.
Therefore,$F_{v} = W - F_{B}$.
The weight of the sphere is $W = V \sigma_{1} g$,where $V$ is the volume of the sphere.
Since $m = V \sigma_{1}$,we have $V = \frac{m}{\sigma_{1}}$.
The buoyant force is $F_{B} = V \sigma_{2} g = (\frac{m}{\sigma_{1}}) \sigma_{2} g = mg(\frac{\sigma_{2}}{\sigma_{1}})$.
Substituting these into the equation for viscous force:
$F_{v} = mg - mg(\frac{\sigma_{2}}{\sigma_{1}}) = mg(1 - \frac{\sigma_{2}}{\sigma_{1}})$.

(A) When a sphere moves with terminal velocity,the net force acting on it is zero.
The forces acting on the sphere are: weight $(W)$ acting downwards,buoyant force $(F_{B})$ acting upwards,and viscous force $(F_{v})$ acting upwards.
$W = F_{B} + F_{v}$
$F_{v} = W - F_{B}$
Weight $W = Mg = V d_{1} g$,where $V$ is the volume of the sphere.
Buoyant force $F_{B} = V d_{2} g$.
Substituting these into the equation:
$F_{v} = V d_{1} g - V d_{2} g = V d_{1} g (1 - \frac{d_{2}}{d_{1}})$.
Since $M = V d_{1}$,we get:
$F_{v} = Mg (1 - \frac{d_{2}}{d_{1}})$.

(D) The terminal velocity $v$ of a sphere of radius $R$ and density $\rho$ falling through a liquid of density $\sigma$ and viscosity $\eta$ is given by Stokes' Law: $6 \pi \eta R v = \frac{4}{3} \pi R^{3} g (\rho - \sigma)$.
Thus,$v \propto (\rho - \sigma)$.
For the first sphere: $v_{1} \propto (\varrho_{1} - \sigma)$.
For the second sphere: $v_{2} \propto (\varrho_{2} - \sigma)$.
Taking the ratio: $\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} = \frac{\varrho_{2} - \sigma}{\varrho_{1} - \sigma}$.
Therefore,$v_{2} = \left[\frac{\varrho_{2} - \sigma}{\varrho_{1} - \sigma}\right] v_{1}$.

(A) The density $\rho$ is given by $\rho = M / V$,where $M$ is mass and $V$ is volume.
Differentiating both sides,we get $\frac{d\rho}{\rho} = -\frac{dV}{V}$.
The bulk modulus $K$ is defined as $K = -\frac{P}{dV/V}$,which implies $-\frac{dV}{V} = \frac{P}{K}$.
Substituting this into the density relation,we get $\frac{d\rho}{\rho} = \frac{P}{K}$.
Therefore,the increase in density is $d\rho = \frac{\rho P}{K}$.

(A) The bulk modulus $K$ is defined as $K = -\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta V / V}$.
Given that the volume decreases by $x \%$,we have $\frac{\Delta V}{V} = \frac{x}{100}$.
The change in pressure $\Delta p$ at a depth $h$ in the sea is given by $\Delta p = \rho g h$.
Substituting these into the bulk modulus formula: $K = \frac{\rho g h}{x / 100}$.
Rearranging for depth $h$: $h = \frac{K \cdot x}{100 \cdot \rho \cdot g}$.
Since $100$ is a constant,the depth $h$ is proportional to $\frac{Kx}{\rho g}$.

(D) The bulk modulus $K$ is defined as $K = -V \frac{dp}{dV}$.
For a small change in pressure $p$,we have $K = -V \frac{p}{\Delta V}$,which gives $\Delta V = -\frac{pV}{K}$.
The new volume $V^{\prime}$ is $V^{\prime} = V + \Delta V = V - \frac{pV}{K} = V(1 - \frac{p}{K})$.
Since density $\varrho = \frac{m}{V}$,the new density is $\varrho^{\prime} = \frac{m}{V^{\prime}} = \frac{m}{V(1 - \frac{p}{K})}$.
Substituting $\varrho = \frac{m}{V}$,we get $\varrho^{\prime} = \frac{\varrho}{1 - \frac{p}{K}}$.
Therefore,the ratio $\frac{\varrho^{\prime}}{\varrho} = \frac{1}{1 - \frac{p}{K}}$.

(C) The compressibility $K$ is defined as the reciprocal of the Bulk modulus $B$, given by $K = \frac{1}{B} = -\frac{\Delta V}{P V}$.
Here, the negative sign indicates that an increase in pressure leads to a decrease in volume.
Given:
Compressibility $K = 6 \times 10^{-10} \,m^{2}/N$
Initial volume $V = 1 \,L = 10^{-3} \,m^{3}$
Pressure change $P = 4 \times 10^{7} \,N/m^{2}$
The decrease in volume $\Delta V$ is given by:
$\Delta V = K \cdot P \cdot V$
$\Delta V = (6 \times 10^{-10} \,m^{2}/N) \times (4 \times 10^{7} \,N/m^{2}) \times (10^{-3} \,m^{3})$
$\Delta V = 24 \times 10^{-6} \,m^{3}$
Since $1 \,m^{3} = 10^{3} \,L = 10^{6} \,mL$, we convert the volume change to millilitres:
$\Delta V = 24 \times 10^{-6} \times 10^{6} \,mL = 24 \,mL$.

(C) The energy density (strain energy per unit volume) $U$ is given by $U = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Stress} \times \text{Strain}$.
From Hooke's law,$\text{Stress} = Y \times \text{Strain}$,so $U = \frac{(\text{Stress})^2}{2Y}$.
Since $\text{Stress} = \frac{F}{A} = \frac{F}{\pi d^2 / 4}$,we have $\text{Stress} \propto \frac{1}{d^2}$.
Therefore,$U \propto \frac{1}{d^4}$.
Given the ratio of diameters $\frac{d_A}{d_B} = \frac{1}{3}$,the ratio of energy densities is $\frac{U_A}{U_B} = \left(\frac{d_B}{d_A}\right)^4$.
Substituting the values,$\frac{U_A}{U_B} = \left(\frac{3}{1}\right)^4 = 81:1$.

(B) The shear modulus $\eta$ is defined as $\eta = \frac{\text{Shear Stress}}{\text{Shear Strain}} = \frac{F/A}{\Delta x/L}$,where $A$ is the area of the face,$\Delta x$ is the displacement,and $L$ is the side length.
For the first cube: $\eta = \frac{F/L^2}{x_{1}/L} = \frac{F}{L x_{1}}$.
Thus,$x_{1} = \frac{F}{\eta L}$.
For the second cube of side $2L$: The area $A' = (2L)^2 = 4L^2$. The shear modulus $\eta$ remains the same as the material is the same.
Let the new displacement be $x_{2}$. Then $\eta = \frac{F/A'}{x_{2}/(2L)} = \frac{F/(4L^2)}{x_{2}/(2L)} = \frac{F}{2L x_{2}}$.
Equating the two expressions for $\eta$: $\frac{F}{L x_{1}} = \frac{F}{2L x_{2}}$.
Solving for $x_{2}$: $x_{2} = \frac{x_{1}}{2}$.

(A) The elastic potential energy stored per unit volume $(u)$ in a material subjected to stress $(S)$ and having Young's modulus $(Y)$ is given by the formula:
$u = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{stress} \times \text{strain}$
Since Young's modulus $Y = \frac{\text{stress}}{\text{strain}}$,we have $\text{strain} = \frac{S}{Y}$.
Substituting the value of strain into the energy density formula:
$u = \frac{1}{2} \times S \times \left( \frac{S}{Y} \right)$
$u = \frac{S^2}{2Y}$
Therefore,the correct option is $A$.

(A) The energy density $(u)$ of a stretched wire is given by the formula: $u = \frac{1}{2} \times Y \times (\text{strain})^{2}$.
Given:
Young's modulus $(Y)$ = $1.6 \times 10^{12} \,N/m^{2}$.
Strain = $2 \times 10^{-4}$.
Substituting the values into the formula:
$u = \frac{1}{2} \times (1.6 \times 10^{12}) \times (2 \times 10^{-4})^{2}$.
$u = 0.5 \times 1.6 \times 10^{12} \times 4 \times 10^{-8}$.
$u = 0.8 \times 4 \times 10^{12-8}$.
$u = 3.2 \times 10^{4} \,J/m^{3}$.

(A) Let the length of the wire be $L$,the cross-sectional area be $A$,and the volume be $V$. Since the volume is constant,$V = A \times L$,which implies $A = \frac{V}{L}$.
According to Young's modulus formula,$Y = \frac{F \times L}{A \times \Delta L}$,where $\Delta L$ is the extension.
Rearranging for $\Delta L$,we get $\Delta L = \frac{F \times L}{Y \times A}$.
Substituting $A = \frac{V}{L}$ into the equation,we get $\Delta L = \frac{F \times L}{Y \times (V/L)} = \frac{F \times L^{2}}{Y \times V}$.
Since $F$,$Y$,and $V$ are constants,the extension $\Delta L$ is proportional to $L^{2}$.

(A) The elongation $\Delta l$ in a wire is given by the formula: $\Delta l = \frac{F \cdot l}{Y \cdot A}$,where $F$ is the applied force,$l$ is the length,$Y$ is Young's modulus,and $A$ is the cross-sectional area.
Since the wires are made of the same material,$Y$ is the same for both. The area $A = \pi r^2$.
For the thick wire $(1)$: $l_1 = 2L$,$r_1 = 2R$,$A_1 = \pi (2R)^2 = 4\pi R^2$.
For the thin wire $(2)$: $l_2 = L$,$r_2 = R$,$A_2 = \pi R^2$.
Since the same force $F$ is applied to both wires connected in series,the tension in both wires is the same.
Therefore,the ratio of elongations is:
$\frac{\Delta l_1}{\Delta l_2} = \frac{F \cdot l_1 / (Y \cdot A_1)}{F \cdot l_2 / (Y \cdot A_2)} = \frac{l_1}{l_2} \cdot \frac{A_2}{A_1}$
Substituting the values:
$\frac{\Delta l_1}{\Delta l_2} = \frac{2L}{L} \cdot \frac{\pi R^2}{4\pi R^2} = 2 \cdot \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{2}$.
Wait,let's re-evaluate: $\frac{2}{1} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}$.
Thus,the ratio of elongation in the thick wire to that in the thin wire is $1:2$.

(C) The breaking force $F$ of a wire is proportional to its cross-sectional area $A$.
Since $A = \pi r^2$, the breaking force is given by $F = \text{Breaking Stress} \times \pi r^2$.
For wires of the same material, the breaking stress is constant.
Therefore, $F \propto r^2$.
Given $F_1 = 10 \,N$ for $r_1 = 1 \,mm$ and $r_2 = 3 \,mm$.
Using the ratio: $\frac{F_2}{F_1} = \frac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}$.
Substituting the values: $\frac{F_2}{10} = \frac{3^2}{1^2} = 9$.
Thus, $F_2 = 10 \times 9 = 90 \,N$.

(A) The elongation $\Delta L$ of a wire is given by the formula $\Delta L = \frac{FL}{AY}$,where $F$ is the force,$L$ is the length,$A$ is the cross-sectional area,and $Y$ is the Young's modulus.
Since $F$,$L$,and $Y$ are the same for both wires,$\Delta L \propto \frac{1}{A}$.
The mass $m$ of a wire is given by $m = \rho AL$,where $\rho$ is the density. Since $\rho$ and $L$ are the same,$m \propto A$.
Therefore,$\Delta L \propto \frac{1}{m}$.
Given the ratio of masses $\frac{m_1}{m_2} = \frac{3}{4}$,the ratio of elongations is $\frac{\Delta L_1}{\Delta L_2} = \frac{m_2}{m_1} = \frac{4}{3}$.

(D) The velocity of a transverse wave in a stretched string is given by $V = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$,where $T$ is the tension and $\mu$ is the mass per unit length (linear mass density).
$\mu = \frac{M}{L} = \frac{A \cdot L \cdot \rho}{L} = A \cdot \rho$,where $A$ is the cross-sectional area and $\rho$ is the material density.
Substituting $\mu$ into the velocity equation: $V = \sqrt{\frac{T}{A \cdot \rho}}$.
Squaring both sides: $V^{2} = \frac{T}{A \cdot \rho}$.
Rearranging to find the tensile stress (which is defined as $\text{Stress} = \frac{T}{A}$): $\frac{T}{A} = V^{2} \cdot \rho$.
Therefore,the tensile stress in the wire is $V^{2} \rho$.

(C) The total force acting on the rope when the lift accelerates upwards is $F = M(g+a)$.
Stress is defined as force per unit area,so $s = \frac{F}{A} = \frac{M(g+a)}{\pi r^2}$,where $r$ is the radius of the rope.
Rearranging for $r^2$,we get $r^2 = \frac{M(g+a)}{\pi s}$.
Since the diameter $D = 2r$,we have $r = \frac{D}{2}$.
Substituting this into the equation: $(\frac{D}{2})^2 = \frac{M(g+a)}{\pi s} \implies \frac{D^2}{4} = \frac{M(g+a)}{\pi s}$.
Solving for $D$,we get $D^2 = \frac{4 M(g+a)}{\pi s}$,which gives $D = \left[\frac{4 M(g+a)}{\pi s}\right]^{\frac{1}{2}}$.

(B) The longitudinal strain is given by $\epsilon_L = \frac{\Delta L}{L} = \frac{F}{AY} = \frac{Mg}{\pi r^2 Y}$.
Poisson's ratio $\sigma$ is defined as the ratio of lateral strain to longitudinal strain: $\sigma = -\frac{\epsilon_D}{\epsilon_L} = -\frac{\Delta r / r}{\Delta L / L}$.
Therefore,the lateral strain is $\frac{\Delta r}{r} = -\sigma \epsilon_L$.
The magnitude of the decrease in radius is $\Delta r = r \sigma \epsilon_L$.
Substituting the value of $\epsilon_L$: $\Delta r = r \sigma \left( \frac{Mg}{\pi r^2 Y} \right) = \frac{Mg \sigma}{\pi r Y}$.

(D) The potential drop across the potentiometer wire $AB$ is given by $V_{AB} = E \cdot \frac{R_{AB}}{R + R_{AB} + r}$,where $E$ is the $EMF$ of the driver cell,$R$ is the external resistance,$R_{AB}$ is the resistance of the wire,and $r$ is the internal resistance of the driver cell.
$(i)$ When student $X$ increases $R$,the total resistance of the primary circuit increases,so the current $I = \frac{E}{R + R_{AB} + r}$ decreases. Consequently,the potential gradient $k = \frac{V_{AB}}{L}$ decreases. Since the balancing condition is $E_1 = k \cdot l$,where $l$ is the balancing length,if $k$ decreases,$l$ must increase to maintain the same $E_1$. Thus,the null point shifts towards $B$.
(ii) When student $Y$ decreases $S$,the terminal potential difference across the cell $E_1$ is $V = E_1 - I_1 r_1$,where $I_1 = \frac{E_1}{S + r_1}$. Decreasing $S$ increases the current $I_1$ drawn from the cell $E_1$,which increases the voltage drop $I_1 r_1$ across the internal resistance $r_1$. Therefore,the terminal voltage $V$ across the cell $E_1$ decreases. Since $V = k \cdot l$,a decrease in $V$ requires a smaller balancing length $l$. Thus,the null point shifts towards $A$.

(A) Given: Resistance of galvanometer $G = 45 \Omega$,specific resistance $\rho = 5 \times 10^{-7} \Omega m$,area $A = 4 \times 10^{-7} m^2$.
When the deflection falls from $30$ divisions to $3$ divisions,the current through the galvanometer $I_g$ becomes $I_g = \frac{3}{30} I = \frac{1}{10} I$.
The shunt resistance $S$ is given by the formula $S = \frac{I_g G}{I - I_g}$.
Substituting the values: $S = \frac{(\frac{1}{10} I) \times 45}{I - \frac{1}{10} I} = \frac{4.5 I}{0.9 I} = 5 \Omega$.
Since $S = \frac{\rho L}{A}$,we have $L = \frac{S A}{\rho}$.
$L = \frac{5 \times 4 \times 10^{-7}}{5 \times 10^{-7}} = 4 \ m$.

(D) Let the total current be $I$.
Given that the current passing through the galvanometer is $I_{G} = 5\% \text{ of } I = 0.05 I$.
The current passing through the shunt resistance $S$ is $I_{S} = I - I_{G} = I - 0.05 I = 0.95 I$.
Since the galvanometer and the shunt are in parallel,the potential difference across them is equal:
$I_{S} S = I_{G} G$
Substituting the values:
$(0.95 I) S = (0.05 I) G$
$S = \frac{0.05 I}{0.95 I} G$
$S = \frac{5}{95} G = \frac{1}{19} G$
Therefore,the resistance of the shunt is $\frac{G}{19}$.

(A) Kirchhoff's current law $(KCL)$ is based on the law of conservation of charge,which states that the total current entering a junction must equal the total current leaving it,as charge cannot be created or destroyed at a junction.
Kirchhoff's voltage law $(KVL)$ is based on the law of conservation of energy,which states that the algebraic sum of potential changes in any closed loop of a circuit is zero,reflecting that the work done in moving a charge around a closed loop is zero.

(A) According to Kirchhoff's Current Law $(KCL)$,the sum of currents entering a junction is equal to the sum of currents leaving the junction.
From the given figure,the currents entering the junction are $I$,$0.2 \ A$,and $0.4 \ A$.
The currents leaving the junction are $0.5 \ A$ and $0.8 \ A$.
Applying $KCL$: $I + 0.2 + 0.4 = 0.5 + 0.8$
$I + 0.6 = 1.3$
$I = 1.3 - 0.6 = 0.7 \ A$

(B) According to Kirchhoff's Current Law $(KCL)$,the sum of currents entering a junction equals the sum of currents leaving it.
$1$. At the first junction: The total current entering is $1.2 \ A + 1.0 \ A = 2.2 \ A$. This current flows to the next junction.
$2$. At the second junction: The current $2.2 \ A$ enters,and $0.2 \ A$ and $0.1 \ A$ leave. The remaining current flowing forward is $2.2 \ A - (0.2 \ A + 0.1 \ A) = 2.2 \ A - 0.3 \ A = 1.9 \ A$.
$3$. At the third junction: The current $1.9 \ A$ enters,and $0.4 \ A$ leaves along one branch. The remaining current $I$ must leave along the other branch. Therefore,$I = 1.9 \ A - 0.4 \ A = 1.5 \ A$.

(B) In a meter bridge experiment,contact resistance at the ends of the wire introduces an error in the measurement. To minimize this error,the experiment is performed twice by interchanging the positions of the known resistance $(R)$ and the unknown resistance $(S)$. By taking the average of the two values obtained,the effect of end errors and contact resistance is significantly reduced.

(C) In a meter bridge,the condition for the null point is given by $\frac{R_A}{R_B} = \frac{l_1}{l_2}$,where $l_1 = 40 \ cm$ and $l_2 = 100 - 40 = 60 \ cm$.
Thus,$\frac{R_A}{R_B} = \frac{40}{60} = \frac{2}{3}$.
The resistance of a wire is given by $R = \frac{\rho L}{A} = \frac{\rho L}{\pi r^2}$.
Since the lengths $L$ are equal,$\frac{R_A}{R_B} = \frac{\rho_A}{\rho_B} \times \frac{r_B^2}{r_A^2}$.
Given the ratio of diameters $d_A : d_B = 3:1$,the ratio of radii is also $r_A : r_B = 3:1$,so $\frac{r_A}{r_B} = 3$.
Substituting the values: $\frac{2}{3} = \frac{\rho_A}{\rho_B} \times (\frac{1}{3})^2$.
$\frac{2}{3} = \frac{\rho_A}{\rho_B} \times \frac{1}{9}$.
Therefore,$\frac{\rho_A}{\rho_B} = \frac{2}{3} \times 9 = 6:1$.

(A) Let the two resistances be $r_1$ and $r_2$. In a metre bridge,the balance condition is $\frac{r_1}{r_2} = \frac{l}{100-l}$.
Given $l = 20 \ cm$,so $\frac{r_1}{r_2} = \frac{20}{80} = \frac{1}{4}$,which implies $r_2 = 4r_1$. Thus,$r_1$ is the smaller resistance.
When $15 \ \Omega$ is connected in series with $r_1$,the new balance length is $40 \ cm$.
The new condition is $\frac{r_1 + 15}{r_2} = \frac{40}{60} = \frac{2}{3}$.
Substituting $r_2 = 4r_1$ into the equation: $\frac{r_1 + 15}{4r_1} = \frac{2}{3}$.
Cross-multiplying gives $3(r_1 + 15) = 2(4r_1) \Rightarrow 3r_1 + 45 = 8r_1$.
$5r_1 = 45 \Rightarrow r_1 = 9 \ \Omega$.

(B) In a metre bridge,the ratio of resistances is given by $\frac{R_A}{R_B} = \frac{l_1}{100-l_1}$.
Given $l_1 = 40 \ cm$,so $\frac{R_A}{R_B} = \frac{40}{60} = \frac{2}{3}$.
The resistance $R$ is given by $R = \rho \frac{L}{A} = \rho \frac{L}{\pi r^2}$.
Since lengths $L_A = L_B$,we have $\frac{R_A}{R_B} = \frac{\rho_A}{\rho_B} \times \frac{r_B^2}{r_A^2}$.
Given the ratio of diameters $d_A:d_B = 3:1$,the ratio of radii $r_A:r_B = 3:1$.
Substituting the values: $\frac{2}{3} = \frac{\rho_A}{\rho_B} \times (\frac{1}{3})^2$.
$\frac{2}{3} = \frac{\rho_A}{\rho_B} \times \frac{1}{9}$.
Therefore,$\frac{\rho_A}{\rho_B} = \frac{2}{3} \times 9 = 6:1$.

(C) In a meter-bridge,the balance condition is given by $\frac{P}{Q} = \frac{\ell}{100-\ell}$.
For the first case: $\frac{18}{\ell_{1}} = \frac{R}{100-\ell_{1}}$ ... $(1)$
For the second case: $\frac{18}{1.5 \ell_{1}} = \frac{R/3}{100-1.5 \ell_{1}}$ ... $(2)$
From equation $(1)$,we have $\frac{R}{18} = \frac{100-\ell_{1}}{\ell_{1}} = \frac{100}{\ell_{1}} - 1$.
From equation $(2)$,$\frac{R/3}{18} = \frac{100-1.5 \ell_{1}}{1.5 \ell_{1}} = \frac{100}{1.5 \ell_{1}} - 1$.
Dividing equation $(1)$ by equation $(2)$: $\frac{18/\ell_{1}}{18/(1.5 \ell_{1})} = \frac{R/(100-\ell_{1})}{(R/3)/(100-1.5 \ell_{1})}$
$1.5 = 3 \times \frac{100-1.5 \ell_{1}}{100-\ell_{1}}$
$0.5 = \frac{100-1.5 \ell_{1}}{100-\ell_{1}}$
$50 - 0.5 \ell_{1} = 100 - 1.5 \ell_{1}$
$1.0 \ell_{1} = 50 \implies \ell_{1} = 50 \text{ cm}$.
Substituting $\ell_{1} = 50$ in equation $(1)$: $\frac{18}{50} = \frac{R}{100-50} \implies \frac{18}{50} = \frac{R}{50} \implies R = 18 \Omega$.

(A) The given circuit can be redrawn as a Wheatstone bridge. The resistors are arranged such that the bridge is balanced because the ratio of resistances in the arms is $\frac{3}{3} = \frac{2}{2} = 1$.
In a balanced Wheatstone bridge,no current flows through the central $5 \ \Omega$ resistor.
Thus,the circuit simplifies to two parallel branches,each consisting of two resistors in series.
The upper branch has a resistance of $3 \ \Omega + 2 \ \Omega = 5 \ \Omega$.
The lower branch has a resistance of $3 \ \Omega + 2 \ \Omega = 5 \ \Omega$.
The equivalent resistance $R_{eq}$ of these two parallel branches is given by $\frac{1}{R_{eq}} = \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{2}{5}$,which gives $R_{eq} = 2.5 \ \Omega$.
The current $I$ drawn from the battery is $I = \frac{V}{R_{eq}} = \frac{6 \ V}{2.5 \ \Omega} = 2.4 \ A$.

(A) The kinetic energy $K$ is related to momentum $p$ by the equation $K = \frac{p^2}{2m}$.
Therefore,$p = \sqrt{2mK}$.
The de-Broglie wavelength $\lambda$ is given by $\lambda = \frac{h}{p} = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2mK}}$.
This implies $\lambda \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{K}}$.
Let the initial kinetic energy be $K_1$ and the final kinetic energy be $K_2 = 16K_1$.
Then,$\frac{\lambda_2}{\lambda_1} = \sqrt{\frac{K_1}{K_2}} = \sqrt{\frac{K_1}{16K_1}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{16}} = \frac{1}{4}$.
So,$\lambda_2 = 0.25 \lambda_1$.
The percentage change in wavelength is $\frac{\lambda_1 - \lambda_2}{\lambda_1} \times 100\% = \frac{\lambda_1 - 0.25 \lambda_1}{\lambda_1} \times 100\% = 0.75 \times 100\% = 75\%$.

(B) Given that the work function is negligible,the kinetic energy of the emitted electron is equal to the energy of the incident photon.
$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{hc}{\lambda}$
Multiplying both sides by $2m$,we get $m^2v^2 = \frac{2mhc}{\lambda}$.
Taking the square root,the momentum $p = mv = \sqrt{\frac{2mhc}{\lambda}}$.
The de-Broglie wavelength $\lambda_e$ is given by $\lambda_e = \frac{h}{p}$.
Substituting the value of $p$:
$\lambda_e = \frac{h}{\sqrt{\frac{2mhc}{\lambda}}} = \sqrt{\frac{h^2 \lambda}{2mhc}} = \sqrt{\frac{h\lambda}{2mc}}$.

(D) The de Broglie wavelength $\lambda$ of an electron accelerated through a potential difference $V$ is given by the formula: $\lambda = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2meV}}$.
From this relation,we can see that $\lambda \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{V}}$.
Let the initial potential difference be $V_1 = V$ and the initial wavelength be $\lambda_1$.
When the potential difference is doubled,the new potential difference is $V_2 = 2V$.
The new wavelength $\lambda_2$ is given by $\lambda_2 = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2me(2V)}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \times \frac{h}{\sqrt{2meV}}$.
Therefore,$\lambda_2 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \lambda_1$.
Thus,the de-Broglie wavelength changes by a factor of $1/\sqrt{2}$.

(B) Both the electron and the proton are accelerated through the same potential difference $V$,so they acquire the same kinetic energy $K = eV$.
The momentum $P$ of a particle is related to its kinetic energy $K$ by the formula $P = \sqrt{2mK}$.
For the electron,the momentum is $P_{e} = \sqrt{2m_{e}K}$.
For the proton,the momentum is $P_{p} = \sqrt{2m_{p}K}$.
The de-Broglie wavelength is given by $\lambda = \frac{h}{P}$.
Therefore,the ratio of the wavelengths is $\frac{\lambda_{p}}{\lambda_{e}} = \frac{h/P_{p}}{h/P_{e}} = \frac{P_{e}}{P_{p}}$.
Substituting the expressions for momentum: $\frac{\lambda_{p}}{\lambda_{e}} = \frac{\sqrt{2m_{e}K}}{\sqrt{2m_{p}K}} = \sqrt{\frac{m_{e}}{m_{p}}} = \left(\frac{m_{e}}{m_{p}}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}$.

(A) The de-Broglie wavelength $\lambda$ of an electron with energy $E$ is given by $\lambda = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2mE}}$.
From this relation,we can see that $\lambda \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{E}}$,which implies $\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2} = \sqrt{\frac{E_2}{E_1}}$.
Given $\lambda_1 = 10^{-10} \ m$ and $\lambda_2 = 0.5 \times 10^{-10} \ m$,we have $\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2} = \frac{10^{-10}}{0.5 \times 10^{-10}} = 2$.
Substituting this into the ratio equation: $2 = \sqrt{\frac{E_2}{E_1}}$.
Squaring both sides,we get $4 = \frac{E_2}{E_1}$,so $E_2 = 4E_1 = 4E$.
The energy imparted to the electron is $\Delta E = E_2 - E_1 = 4E - E = 3E$.

(B) The energy of a photon is given by $E = h\nu$,where $h$ is Planck's constant and $\nu$ is the frequency of the photon.
When a photon travels from one medium to another (e.g.,from air to glass),its frequency $\nu$ remains constant because it is determined by the source of the light.
Since $E = h\nu$ and $h$ is a constant,the energy $E$ of the photon does not change.
However,the velocity $v$ of the photon changes as it enters a denser medium,and since $v = \nu \lambda$,the wavelength $\lambda$ also changes.
Momentum $p$ is given by $p = E/c$ (in vacuum) or $p = h/\lambda$,which changes as the wavelength changes.
Therefore,the energy is the quantity that does not change.

(C) The energy of a single photon is given by $E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}$.
If $n$ photons are emitted in time $t$,the total energy emitted is $E_{total} = n \times \frac{hc}{\lambda}$.
Power $P$ is defined as the total energy emitted per unit time,so $P = \frac{E_{total}}{t} = \frac{nhc}{\lambda t}$.
Rearranging the formula to solve for $n$,we get $n = \frac{P \lambda t}{hc}$.

(B) The stopping potential $(V_0)$ is determined by the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons, which depends on the frequency of the incident radiation, not its intensity.
According to Einstein's photoelectric equation: $K_{max} = h\nu - \Phi_0 = eV_0$.
Since the intensity of light only affects the number of photons incident per unit area per unit time (and thus the number of photoelectrons emitted), it does not change the maximum kinetic energy of the individual electrons.
Therefore, the stopping potential remains unchanged when the intensity is increased.

(D) The kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectron is given by $K_{max} = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$.
At the stopping potential $V_s$,the work done by the retarding electric field is equal to the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectron.
Therefore,$eV_s = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$.
Solving for the stopping potential $V_s$:
$V_s = \frac{mv^2}{2e}$.
This can be rewritten as $V_s = \frac{v^2}{2(e/m)}$.

(A) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation, the maximum kinetic energy $K_{max}$ of emitted photoelectrons is given by $K_{max} = h\nu - \phi$, where $h$ is Planck's constant, $\nu$ is the frequency of incident light, and $\phi$ is the work function of the metal.
Initially, $K_{max1} = h\nu - \phi$.
When the frequency is doubled, the new frequency is $\nu' = 2\nu$.
The new maximum kinetic energy is $K_{max2} = h(2\nu) - \phi = 2h\nu - \phi$.
Since $K_{max2} = 2(h\nu - \phi/2)$, and $\phi > 0$, it follows that $K_{max2} > 2(h\nu - \phi) = 2K_{max1}$.
Therefore, the maximum kinetic energy increases to slightly more than double the initial value.

(D) The threshold frequency is given as $\nu_{0} = 15 \times 10^{14} \,Hz$.
The threshold wavelength $\lambda_{0}$ is calculated as $\lambda_{0} = \frac{c}{\nu_{0}} = \frac{3 \times 10^{8}}{15 \times 10^{14}} = 0.2 \times 10^{-6} \,m = 2000 \text{ Å}$.
The wavelength of incident light is $\lambda = 6000 \text{ Å}$.
For photoelectric emission to occur, the incident wavelength must be less than or equal to the threshold wavelength $(\lambda \leq \lambda_{0})$.
Since $\lambda = 6000 \text{ Å} > \lambda_{0} = 2000 \text{ Å}$, the energy of the incident photons is less than the work function of the metal.
Therefore, photoelectrons will not be emitted.

(D) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the maximum kinetic energy $(K.E.)_{\max}$ of emitted photoelectrons is given by:
$(K.E.)_{\max} = h\nu - \phi_0$
Where:
$h\nu$ is the energy of the incident photon.
$\phi_0$ is the work function of the metal.
From the equation,it is clear that $(K.E.)_{\max}$ is inversely proportional to the work function $\phi_0$ for a constant incident frequency $\nu$.
Therefore,if the work function $\phi_0$ increases,the maximum kinetic energy $(K.E.)_{\max}$ decreases.

(C) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the maximum kinetic energy '$K$' of the emitted photoelectron is given by: $K = E - W_{0}$.
Since $K = \frac{P^{2}}{2m}$,the momentum '$P$' of the electron is $P = \sqrt{2mK} = \sqrt{2m(E - W_{0})}$.
When a charged particle moves in a uniform magnetic field '$B$' perpendicular to its velocity,it follows a circular path of radius '$r = \frac{P}{eB}$.
Substituting the value of '$P$',we get: $r = \frac{\sqrt{2m(E - W_{0})}}{eB}$.

(B) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the maximum kinetic energy $(E_k)$ of emitted photoelectrons is given by:
$E_k = h\nu - \Phi$
Where $h$ is Planck's constant,$\nu$ is the frequency of incident radiation,and $\Phi$ is the work function of the metal.
This equation is of the form $y = mx + c$,where $y = E_k$,$x = \nu$,$m = h$ (slope),and $c = -\Phi$ (y-intercept).
Since the y-intercept is negative $(-\Phi)$,the graph is a straight line that does not pass through the origin. It starts from the x-axis at a threshold frequency $\nu_0$ (where $E_k = 0$,so $h\nu_0 = \Phi$) and has a positive slope $h$. The provided image shows a straight line with a positive x-intercept,which correctly represents this relationship.

(A) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the maximum kinetic energy $(K_{max})$ of emitted photoelectrons is given by $K_{max} = h\nu - \Phi$,where $h$ is Planck's constant,$\nu$ is the frequency of incident radiation,and $\Phi$ is the work function of the metal surface.
This equation shows that the maximum kinetic energy depends only on the frequency of the incident radiation and the work function of the metal. It is independent of the intensity $(I)$ of the incident radiation.
Therefore,the graph showing the variation of maximum kinetic energy $(E)$ with intensity $(I)$ should be a horizontal line parallel to the intensity axis. Assuming graph $(D)$ represents this constant behavior,the correct option is $(D)$.

(B) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation: $K_{max} = \frac{hc}{\lambda} - \phi$,where $\phi$ is the work function.
Since $K_{max} = eV_{s}$,where $V_{s}$ is the stopping potential,we have $eV_{s} = \frac{hc}{\lambda} - \phi$.
For the first case: $eV_{0} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{0}} - \phi$ --- $(1)$
For the second case with wavelength $2\lambda_{0}$: $eV_{s}' = \frac{hc}{2\lambda_{0}} - \phi$ --- $(2)$
Subtracting equation $(2)$ from equation $(1)$:
$eV_{0} - eV_{s}' = \left(\frac{hc}{\lambda_{0}} - \phi\right) - \left(\frac{hc}{2\lambda_{0}} - \phi\right)$
$e(V_{0} - V_{s}') = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{0}} - \frac{hc}{2\lambda_{0}} = \frac{hc}{2\lambda_{0}}$
$V_{0} - V_{s}' = \frac{hc}{2e\lambda_{0}}$
$V_{s}' = V_{0} - \frac{hc}{2e\lambda_{0}}$
Note: If $\frac{hc}{2\lambda_{0}} < \phi$,the stopping potential will be $0$ as no photoelectric emission occurs.

(D) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the maximum kinetic energy $(K_{max})$ of emitted photoelectrons is given by $K_{max} = h\nu - \Phi$,where $h$ is Planck's constant,$\nu$ is the frequency of incident radiation,and $\Phi$ is the work function of the metal.
Since the stopping potential $(V_{s})$ is related to the maximum kinetic energy by the relation $eV_{s} = K_{max}$,we have $eV_{s} = h\nu - \Phi$.
This equation shows that the stopping potential $(V_{s})$ depends only on the frequency $(\nu)$ of the incident radiation and the work function $(\Phi)$ of the metal surface.
Intensity of light affects the number of photons incident per unit area per unit time,which in turn affects the number of photoelectrons emitted (photoelectric current),but it does not affect the maximum kinetic energy of the individual photoelectrons.
Therefore,if the frequency $(\nu)$ is kept constant,the stopping potential $(V_{s})$ remains the same regardless of changes in the intensity of the incident light.

(D) The threshold frequency of the material is $\nu_0$. The initial incident frequency is $\nu_1 = 2\nu_0$. Since $\nu_1 > \nu_0$,photoelectric emission occurs.
When the incident frequency is changed to $\nu_2 = \frac{1}{3} \nu_1 = \frac{1}{3} (2\nu_0) = \frac{2}{3} \nu_0$.
For photoelectric emission to occur,the incident frequency must be greater than or equal to the threshold frequency $(\nu \ge \nu_0)$.
Since $\nu_2 = \frac{2}{3} \nu_0 < \nu_0$,the incident frequency is now less than the threshold frequency.
Therefore,no photoelectric emission will take place regardless of the increase in intensity.
Thus,the photoelectric current will be zero.

(B) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the maximum kinetic energy $K_{max}$ is given by $K_{max} = \frac{hc}{\lambda} - \phi$,where $\phi$ is the work function.
For wavelength $\lambda_{1}$,$E_{1} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{1}} - \phi$ --- $(i)$
For wavelength $\lambda_{2}$,$E_{2} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{2}} - \phi$ --- (ii)
From $(i)$,$hc = \lambda_{1}(E_{1} + \phi)$.
From (ii),$hc = \lambda_{2}(E_{2} + \phi)$.
Equating the two expressions for $hc$:
$\lambda_{1}(E_{1} + \phi) = \lambda_{2}(E_{2} + \phi)$
$\lambda_{1}E_{1} + \lambda_{1}\phi = \lambda_{2}E_{2} + \lambda_{2}\phi$
$\phi(\lambda_{1} - \lambda_{2}) = \lambda_{2}E_{2} - \lambda_{1}E_{1}$
$\phi = \frac{\lambda_{2}E_{2} - \lambda_{1}E_{1}}{\lambda_{1} - \lambda_{2}}$
Multiplying numerator and denominator by $-1$ gives $\phi = \frac{\lambda_{1}E_{1} - \lambda_{2}E_{2}}{\lambda_{2} - \lambda_{1}}$.

(B) The kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectron is given by $K_{max} = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$.
At the stopping potential $V_{s}$,the work done by the retarding potential is equal to the maximum kinetic energy,so $eV_{s} = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$.
Rearranging for $V_{s}$,we get $V_{s} = \frac{1}{2} \frac{m}{e} v^{2}$.
Since $\frac{m}{e} = \frac{1}{(e/m)}$,we can write $V_{s} = \frac{v^{2}}{2(e/m)}$.

(A) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the maximum kinetic energy $K_{max}$ of an emitted photoelectron is given by $K_{max} = E - W$,where $E$ is the energy of the incident photon and $W$ is the work function.
For the first case,$E_1 = 3W$. Thus,$K_1 = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 = 3W - W = 2W$.
For the second case,$E_2 = 5W$. Thus,$K_2 = \frac{1}{2}mv_2^2 = 5W - W = 4W$.
Taking the ratio of the two equations:
$\frac{\frac{1}{2}mv_1^2}{\frac{1}{2}mv_2^2} = \frac{2W}{4W} = \frac{1}{2}$.
Therefore,$\frac{v_1^2}{v_2^2} = \frac{1}{2}$,which implies $\frac{v_1}{v_2} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$.
The ratio of velocities is $1: \sqrt{2}$.

(A) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the maximum kinetic energy $(K.E._{max})$ of emitted photoelectrons is given by:
$K.E._{max} = h\nu - \phi_0$
Comparing this with the equation of a straight line $y = mx + c$,where $y = K.E._{max}$ and $x = \nu$:
$1$. The slope $(m)$ of the graph is equal to Planck's constant $(h)$.
$2$. The $X$-axis intercept occurs when $K.E._{max} = 0$,which gives $0 = h\nu_0 - \phi_0$,or $\nu_0 = \phi_0 / h$. This intercept represents the threshold frequency $(\nu_0)$.
Therefore,the slope is Planck's constant and the $X$-axis intercept is the threshold frequency.

(B) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation, the maximum kinetic energy $K_{\max}$ of emitted electrons is given by:
$K_{\max} = \frac{hc}{\lambda} - \phi$
Since $K_{\max} = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$, we have:
$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{hc}{\lambda} - \phi$
$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{hc - \lambda\phi}{\lambda}$
$v^2 = \frac{2(hc - \lambda\phi)}{m\lambda}$
$v = \left[\frac{2(hc - \lambda\phi)}{m\lambda}\right]^{1/2}$
Thus, the correct option is $B$.

(D) The work function $\phi$ of a metal is related to the threshold wavelength $\lambda_{0}$ by the formula $\phi = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{0}}$.
Given that $\lambda_{A} = 400 \ nm$ and $\lambda_{B} = 800 \ nm$.
Therefore,the work functions are $\phi_{A} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{A}}$ and $\phi_{B} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{B}}$.
The ratio $\frac{\phi_{A}}{\phi_{B}} = \frac{hc/\lambda_{A}}{hc/\lambda_{B}} = \frac{\lambda_{B}}{\lambda_{A}}$.
Substituting the values,we get $\frac{\phi_{A}}{\phi_{B}} = \frac{800 \ nm}{400 \ nm} = 2$.
Thus,the ratio $\phi_{A} : \phi_{B}$ is $2$.

(C) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the stopping potential $V_s$ is given by:
$eV_s = h\nu - \phi_o = h\nu - h\nu_o$
$V_s = \frac{h}{e}(\nu - \nu_o)$
Where $h$ is Planck's constant,$e$ is the charge of an electron,$\nu$ is the frequency of incident radiation,and $\nu_o$ is the threshold frequency.
For a fixed incident frequency $\nu$,the stopping potential $V_s$ is inversely proportional to the threshold frequency $\nu_o$.
From the graph,the threshold frequencies follow the order: $\nu_o(A) < \nu_o(B) < \nu_o(C) < \nu_o(D)$.
Since metal $A$ has the lowest threshold frequency,it will have the highest stopping potential for any given incident frequency $\nu$ (where $\nu > \nu_o(D)$).
Therefore,the correct option is $C$.

(C) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the stopping potential $V_{s}$ is given by:
$eV_{s} = h\nu - \phi$
$V_{s} = \frac{h}{e}\nu - \frac{\phi}{e}$
Comparing this with the equation of a straight line $y = mx + c$,the x-intercept (where $V_{s} = 0$) is the threshold frequency $\nu_{0}$,where $\nu_{0} = \frac{\phi}{h}$ or $\phi = h\nu_{0}$.
From the given graph,the threshold frequency for metal '$P$' is $\nu_{0}$ and for metal '$Q$' is $\nu_{0}^{\prime}$.
Since $\nu_{0} < \nu_{0}^{\prime}$,it follows that $h\nu_{0} < h\nu_{0}^{\prime}$.
Therefore,the work function $\phi_{P} < \phi_{Q}$.

(D) $1$. The stopping potential $V_s$ is related to the maximum kinetic energy $(K.E.)_{\max}$ by the equation: $(K.E.)_{\max} = e V_s$.
Given $(K.E.)_{\max} = 3.2 \times 10^{-19} \text{ J}$ and $e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C}$.
$V_s = \frac{(K.E.)_{\max}}{e} = \frac{3.2 \times 10^{-19}}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}} = 2 \text{ V}$.
$2$. The threshold wavelength $\lambda_0$ is related to the work function $\Phi$ by the equation: $\Phi = \frac{hc}{\lambda_0}$.
Given $\Phi = 6.63 \times 10^{-19} \text{ J}$,$h = 6.63 \times 10^{-34} \text{ J} \cdot \text{s}$,and $c = 3 \times 10^{8} \text{ m/s}$.
$\lambda_0 = \frac{hc}{\Phi} = \frac{6.63 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^{8}}{6.63 \times 10^{-19}} = 3 \times 10^{-7} \text{ m} = 3000 \times 10^{-10} \text{ m} = 3000 \text{ Å}$.
Thus,the stopping potential is $2 \text{ V}$ and the threshold wavelength is $3000 \text{ Å}$. The correct option is $(D)$.

(D) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the maximum kinetic energy $(E_k)$ of emitted photoelectrons is given by $E_k = h\nu - \phi$,where $h$ is Planck's constant,$\nu$ is the frequency of incident light,and $\phi$ is the work function of the metal surface.
This equation shows that the maximum kinetic energy depends only on the frequency of the incident light and the nature of the material (work function).
It does not depend on the intensity $(I)$ of the incident light.
Therefore,the graph between maximum kinetic energy $(E)$ and intensity $(I)$ should be a horizontal line parallel to the intensity axis.
Looking at the given graph,line $P$ represents a constant value of $E$ regardless of the intensity $I$.
Thus,line $P$ is the correct representation.

(A) The energy of the incident photon is given by $E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}$.
Substituting the values: $E = \frac{6.63 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^{8}}{3315 \times 10^{-10}} = 6 \times 10^{-19} \ \text{J}$.
According to Einstein's photoelectric equation, $E = \phi_{0} + K_{\text{max}}$, where $\phi_{0}$ is the work function and $K_{\text{max}}$ is the kinetic energy of the ejected electron.
$\phi_{0} = E - K_{\text{max}} = 6 \times 10^{-19} - 3 \times 10^{-19} = 3 \times 10^{-19} \ \text{J}$.
The threshold wavelength $\lambda_{0}$ is given by $\lambda_{0} = \frac{hc}{\phi_{0}}$.
$\lambda_{0} = \frac{6.63 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^{8}}{3 \times 10^{-19}} = 6.63 \times 10^{-7} \ \text{m} = 6630 \ \text{Å}$.

(B) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the maximum kinetic energy $K_{max}$ is given by $K_{max} = E - \phi_{0}$,where $E$ is the incident energy and $\phi_{0}$ is the work function.
For the first radiation,$E_{1} = 2\phi_{0}$,so $K_{1} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{1}^{2} = 2\phi_{0} - \phi_{0} = \phi_{0}$.
For the second radiation,$E_{2} = 10\phi_{0}$,so $K_{2} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{2}^{2} = 10\phi_{0} - \phi_{0} = 9\phi_{0}$.
Taking the ratio of the two equations: $\frac{\frac{1}{2}mv_{1}^{2}}{\frac{1}{2}mv_{2}^{2}} = \frac{\phi_{0}}{9\phi_{0}}$.
This simplifies to $\frac{v_{1}^{2}}{v_{2}^{2}} = \frac{1}{9}$.
Taking the square root on both sides,we get $\frac{v_{1}}{v_{2}} = \frac{1}{3}$.

(C) The work function $\phi$ of a photosensitive surface is a characteristic property of the material itself and does not depend on the wavelength of the incident light.
Since the same photosensitive surface is used for both wavelengths,the work function remains constant.
Therefore,the ratio of the work functions for the two cases is $\phi_{1} : \phi_{2} = 1 : 1$.
However,if the question implies the ratio of the energy of the incident photons,it would be $\frac{E_{1}}{E_{2}} = \frac{hc/\lambda_{1}}{hc/\lambda_{2}} = \frac{\lambda_{2}}{\lambda_{1}} = \frac{600}{360} = \frac{5}{3}$.
Given the standard interpretation of such problems in physics textbooks,the ratio of the work functions for the same material is always $1:1$. Since $1:1$ is not an option,the question likely asks for the ratio of the energy of the incident photons,which is $5:3$.

(D) According to the right-hand thumb rule,the magnetic field produced by the current $I$ in the wire is directed outward for the region above the wire (where ring $P$ is located) and inward for the region below the wire (where ring $Q$ is located).
Since the current $I$ is increasing steadily,the magnetic flux through both rings is increasing.
For ring $P$,the magnetic field is outward and increasing. According to Lenz's law,the induced current will create a magnetic field in the inward direction to oppose this increase. Therefore,the induced current in ring $P$ must be clockwise.
For ring $Q$,the magnetic field is inward and increasing. According to Lenz's law,the induced current will create a magnetic field in the outward direction to oppose this increase. Therefore,the induced current in ring $Q$ must be anticlockwise.
Comparing this with the given options,Figure $D$ shows the correct directions for the induced currents.

(B) According to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction,the induced electromotive force $(e)$ in a coil of $n$ turns is given by $e = -n \frac{d\Phi}{dt}$.
For a finite change in flux $\Delta\Phi = \Phi_2 - \Phi_1$ over time $t$,the average induced emf is $|e| = n \frac{|\Phi_2 - \Phi_1|}{t} = n \frac{|\Phi_1 - \Phi_2|}{t}$.
The total resistance of the circuit is $R_{total} = R + \frac{R}{2} = \frac{3R}{2}$.
Using Ohm's law,the induced current $I$ is given by $I = \frac{|e|}{R_{total}}$.
Substituting the values,$I = \frac{n|\Phi_1 - \Phi_2| / t}{3R / 2} = \frac{2n|\Phi_1 - \Phi_2|}{3Rt}$.
Thus,the correct option is $B$.

(A) According to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction,the induced e.m.f. $e$ is given by $e = -\frac{d\phi}{dt}$.
Since the magnetic flux $\phi = B \cdot A$,the change in flux $\Delta\phi = A \cdot \Delta B$.
The change in magnetic field is $\Delta B = 4 B_{0} - B_{0} = 3 B_{0}$.
The time interval is given as $t$.
Therefore,the magnitude of the induced e.m.f. is $|e| = \frac{\Delta\phi}{\Delta t} = \frac{A \cdot (3 B_{0})}{t} = \frac{3 AB_{0}}{t}$.

(C) The magnetic field $B$ at the centre of a circular arc carrying current $I$ is given by the formula: $B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2r} \left( \frac{\theta}{2\pi} \right)$.
Given that the angle subtended at the centre is $\theta = \frac{\pi}{16}$.
Substituting the value of $\theta$ into the formula:
$B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2r} \left( \frac{\pi/16}{2\pi} \right)$.
Simplifying the expression inside the parentheses:
$\frac{\pi/16}{2\pi} = \frac{\pi}{16 \times 2\pi} = \frac{1}{32}$.
Now,substitute this back into the equation for $B$:
$B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2r} \times \frac{1}{32} = \frac{\mu_0 I}{64r}$.

(A) The magnetic flux $\phi$ linked with an inductor is given by $\phi = LI$,where $L$ is the self-inductance of the inductor.
Comparing this equation with the equation of a straight line $y = mx$,where $y = \phi$ and $x = I$,we get the slope $m = L$.
Since the slope of the graph represents the self-inductance $L$,the inductor with the smallest slope will have the smallest value of self-inductance.
Looking at the graph,the line $D$ makes the smallest angle with the current axis ($I$-axis),meaning it has the lowest slope.
Therefore,inductor $D$ has the smallest self-inductance.

(A) The relationship between magnetic flux $(\phi)$ and current $(I)$ for an inductor is given by $\phi = LI$,where $L$ is the self-inductance.
Comparing this equation with the equation of a straight line passing through the origin,$y = mx$,we get $L = \phi / I$.
This implies that the self-inductance $L$ is equal to the slope of the $\phi$ versus $I$ graph.
Since the line $A$ has the steepest slope among the four lines,it indicates the largest value of self-inductance.

(D) The magnetic field $B$ at the center of the smaller coil $A$ due to the current $i$ in the larger coil $B$ is approximately uniform over the area of coil $A$.
The magnetic field produced by coil $B$ at its center is $B = \frac{\mu_{0} i}{2 R_{2}}$.
The magnetic flux $\phi$ linked with the smaller coil $A$ is $\phi = B \times A_{1} = \left( \frac{\mu_{0} i}{2 R_{2}} \right) (\pi R_{1}^{2})$.
By definition,the mutual inductance $M$ is given by $M = \frac{\phi}{i} = \frac{\mu_{0} \pi R_{1}^{2}}{2 R_{2}}$.
Therefore,$M \propto \frac{R_{1}^{2}}{R_{2}}$.
