Question
A $100\mu\text{F}$ capacitor is joined to a 24V battery through a $1.0\text{M}\Omega$ resistor. Plot qualitative graphs (a) between current and time for the first 10 minutes and (b) between charge and time for the same period.

Answer
Time constant $\text{RC} = 1 \times 10^6 \times 100 \times 10^6 = 100 \text{sec}$
- $\text{q}=\text{VC}\Big(1-\text{e}^{\frac{-\text{t}}{\text{CR}}}\Big)$
I = Current $=\frac{\text{dq}}{\text{dt}}=\text{VC}.(-)\text{e}^{\frac{-\text{t}}{\text{RC}}},\frac{-1}{\text{RC}}$
$=\frac{\text{V}}{\text{R}}\text{e}^{\frac{-\text{t}}{\text{RC}}}=\frac{\text{V}}{\text{R}\cdot\text{e}^{\frac{\text{t}}{\text{RC}}}}=\frac{24}{10^6}\times\frac{1}{\text{e}^{\frac{\text{t}}{100}}}$
$=24\times10^{-6}\frac{1}{\text{e}^{\frac{\text{t}}{100}}}$
$\text{t}=10\text{min},600\text{sec}.$
$\text{Q}=24\times10+-4\times\big(1-\text{e}^{-6}\big)=23.99\times10^{-4}$
$\text{I}=\frac{24}{10^6}\times\frac{1}{\text{e}^6}=5.9\times10^{-8}\text{Amp}.$
- $\text{q}=\text{VC}\Big(1-\text{e}^\frac{-\text{t}}{\text{CR}}\Big)$

A rocket is fired ‘vertically’ from the surface of mars with a speed of 2km s-1. If 20% of its initial energy is lost due to martian atmospheric resistance, how far will the rocket go from the surface of mars before returning to it? Mass of mars = 6.4 × 1023kg; radius of mars = 3395km; G = 6.67 × 10-11N m2 kg-2.

During summers in India, one of the common practice to keep cool is to make ice balls of crushed ice, dip it in flavoured sugar syrup and sip it. For this a stick is inserted into crushed ice and is squeezed in the palm to make it into the ball. Equivalently in winter, in those areas where it snows, people make snow balls and throw around. Explain the formation of ball out of crushed ice or snow in the light of P–T diagram of water.
When slow neutrons are incident on a target containing $\frac{235}{92}\text{U},$ a possible fission reaction is $\frac{235}{92}\text{U}+_0^1\text{n}\rightarrow\frac{141}{56}\text{Ba}+\frac{92}{36}\text{Kr}+3_0\text{n}^1$
Estimate the amount of energy released using following data :
$\text{M}\Big(\frac{235}{92}\text{U}\Big)=235.04\text{amu}$
$\Big(\text{M}\frac{92}{36}\text{Kr}\Big)=91.926\text{amu}$
$\text{M}\Big(\frac{141}{56}\text{Ba}\Big)=140.91\text{amu}$
$\text{M}=1.0087\text{ amu}$

A gun is mounted on a railroad car. The mass of the car, the gun, the shells and the operator is 50m where m is the mass of one shell. If the velocity of the shell with respect to the gun (in its state before firing) is 200m/s, what is the recoil speed of the car after the second shot? Neglect friction.
