MCQ
A simple pendulum is suspended in a lift which is going up with an acceleration $5\ m/s^2$. An electric  field of magnitude $5 \ N/C$ and directed vertically upward is also present in the lift. The charge of the bob is $1\ mC$ and mass is $1\ mg$. Taking $g = \pi^2$ and length of the simple pendulum $1\ m$, the time period of the simple pendulum is ......$s$
  • A
    $1$
  • $2 $
  • C
    $0.5$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$2 $
b
$\mathrm{T}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\ell}{\mathrm{g}_{\mathrm{eff}}}}$

$\mathrm{g}_{\mathrm{eff}}=\mathrm{g}-\frac{\mathrm{q} \in}{\mathrm{M}}+5$

$=15-\frac{1 \times 5 \times 10^{-6}}{1 \times 10^{-6}}$

$\mathrm{g}_{\mathrm{eff}}=10=\pi^{2}$

$\mathrm{T}=2 \mathrm{\,sec}$

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason $R$. Assertion A : Efficiency of a reversible heat engine will be highest at $-273^{\circ} C$ temperature of cold reservoir.

Reason $R$ : The efficiency of Carnot's engine depends not only on temperature of cold reservoir but it depends on the temperature of hot reservoir too and is given as $\eta=\left(1-\frac{ T _2}{ T _1}\right)$.
