MCQ
All of the following statements are correct except
  • A
    The total length of an astronomical telescope is the sum of the focal lengths of its two lenses
  • The image formed by the astronomical telescope is always erect because the effect of the combination of the two lenses is divergent
  • C
    The magnification of an astronomical telescope can be increased by decreasing the focal length of the eye-piece
  • D
    The magnifying power of the refracting type of astronomical telescope is the ratio of the focal length of the objective to that of the eye-piece

A condenser having a capacity of $6\,\mu F$ is charged to $100\, V$ and is then joined to an uncharged condenser of $14\,\mu F$ and then removed. The ratio of the charges on $6\,\mu F$ and $14\,\mu F$ and the potential of $6\,\mu F$ will be
Column $I$ shows four situations of standard Young's double slit arrangement with the screen placed far away from the slits $S_1$ and $S_2$. In each of these cases $\mathrm{S}_1 \mathrm{P}_0=\mathrm{S}_2 \mathrm{P}_0, \mathrm{~S}_1 \mathrm{P}_1-\mathrm{S}_2 \mathrm{P}_1=\lambda / 4$ and $\mathrm{S}_1 \mathrm{P}_2-\mathrm{S}_2 \mathrm{P}_2=\lambda / 3$, where $\lambda$ is the wavelength of the light used. In the cases $\mathrm{B}, \mathrm{C}$ and $\mathrm{D}$, a transparent sheet of refractive index $\mu$ and thickness $t$ is pasted on slit $\mathrm{S}_2$. The thicknesses of the sheets are different in different cases. The phase difference between the light waves reaching a point $\mathrm{P}$ on the screen from the two slits is denoted by $\delta(\mathrm{P})$ and the intensity by $I(\mathrm{P})$. Match each situation given in Column $I$ with the statement$(s)$ in Column $II$ valid for that situation.

$(A)$ $Image$ $(p)$ $\delta\left(\mathrm{P}_0\right)=0$
$(B)$ $(\mu-1) t=\lambda / 4$ $Image$ $(q)$ $\delta\left(\mathrm{P}_1\right)=0$

$(C)$ $(\mu-1) t=\lambda / 2$ $Image$

$(r)$ $I\left(\mathrm{P}_1\right)=0$
$(D)$ $(\mu-1) t=3 \lambda / 4$ $Image$ $(s)$ $\left(\mathrm{P}_0\right)>I\left(\mathrm{P}_1\right)$
  $(t)$ $I\left(\mathrm{P}_2\right)>I\left(\mathrm{P}_1\right)$

Assertion : $NAND$ or $NOR$ gates are called digital building blocks.

Reason : The repeated use of $NAND$ (or $NOR$) gates can produce all the basis or complicated gates.
