Question

An endless inextensible string passes over two small smooth pegs A and B, AB being horizontal, two particles of mass M and m (M > m) are attached to the string. The particle of mass m is released when it is in level with the pegs. As it comes down M rises up vertically. If and when they cross each other

  1. the speed of M > the speed of m    
  2. the speed of M = the speed of m    
  3. the speed of M < the speed of m    
  4. the ratio of their speeds is fraction numerator M over denominator m end fraction    

The correct answer is: the speed of M = the speed of m

A ray of light parallel to the axis of a converging lens (having focal length f) strikes it at a small distance ‘h’ from its optical centre. A thin prism having angle q and refractive index m is placed normal to the axis of lens at a distance ‘d’ from it. What should be the value of m so that the ray emerges parallel to the lens axis.

A PN junction diode when forward biased has a drop of 0.5V which is assumed to be independent of current. The current in excess of 10mA through the diode produces large joule heating which damages the diode. If we want to use a 1.5V battery to forward bias the diode, the resistor used in series with the diode so that the maximum current does not exceed 5mA is
