A current loop $ABCD$ is held fixed on the plane of the paper as shown in the figure. The arcs $ BC$ (radius $= b$) and $DA $ (radius $= a$) of the loop are joined by two straight wires $AB $  and $CD$. A steady current $I$ is flowing in the loop. Angle made by $AB$ and $CD$ at the origin $O$ is $30^o $. Another straight thin wire with steady current $I_1$ flowing out of the plane of the paper is kept at the origin.

Due to the presence of the current $I_1$ at the origin

A uniform metal rod of $2\, mm^2$ cross section fixed between two walls is heated from $0\,^oC$ to $20\,^oC$. The coefficient of linear expansion of rod is $12\times10^{-6}/^oC$. Its Young's modulus of elasticity is $10^{11} \,N/m^2$. The energy stored per unit volume of rod will be ....... $J/m^3$

A $100\,m$ long wire having cross-sectional area $6.25 \times 10^{-4}\,m ^2$ and Young's modulus is $10^{10}\,Nm ^{-2}$ is subjected to a load of $250\,N$, then the elongation in the wire will be :
A container with $1 kg$ of water in it is kept in sunlight, which causes the water to get warmer than the surroundings. The average energy per unit time per unit area received due to the sunlight is $700 Wm ^{-2}$ and it is absorbed by the water over an effective area of $0.05 m ^2$. Assuming that the heat loss from the water to the surroundings is governed by Newton's law of cooling, the difference (in ${ }^{\circ} C$ ) in the temperature of water and the surroundings after a long time will be. . . . . . . . (Ignore effect of the container, and take constant for Newton's law of cooling $=0.001 s ^{-1}$, Heat capacity of water $\left.=4200 J kg ^{-1} K ^{-1}\right)$
