An observer can see through a small hole on the side of a jar (radius $15\, cm$ ) at a point at height of $15\, cm$ from the bottom (see figure). The hole is at a height of $45\, cm$. When the jar is filled with a liquid up to a height of $30\, cm$ the same observer can see the edge at the bottom of the jar. If the refractive index of the liquid $N / 100,$ where $N$ is an integer, the value of $N$ is $.....$
Two particles $A$ and $B$ are connected by rigid rod $A B$. The rod slides along perpendicular rails as shown here. The velocity of $A$ to the left is $10\; m / s$. What is the velocity of $B$(in $m/s$) when angle $\alpha=60^{\circ}$?
In a sonometer wire, the tension is maintained by suspending a $50.7 kg$ mass from the free end of the wire. The suspended mass has a volume of $ 0.0075 \, m^3$. The fundamental frequency of the wire is $260 Hz$. If the suspended mass is completely submerged in water, the fundamental frequency will become .... $Hz$ (take $g = 10 ms^{-2}$)
The figure shows the motion of a planet around the sun in an elliptical orbit with sun at the focus. The shaded areas $A$ and $B$ are also shown in the figure which can be assumed to be equal. If ${t_1}$ and ${t_2}$ represent the time for the planet to move from $a$ to $b$ and $d$ to $c$ respectively, then
