A rod of magnetic material of cross section $0.25 cm^2$ is located in $4000 Am ^{-1}$ magnetising field. Magnetic flux passing through the rod is $25 \times 10^{-6} Wb$. Find out (a) relative permeability (b) magnetic susceptibility and (c) magnetisation of the rod.
Particle accelerators are important for a variety of research purposes. Large accelerators are used in particle research. There have been several accelerators in India since 1953. The Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), Govt. of India, had taken initiative in setting up accelerators for research. Apart from ion accelerators, the DAE has developed and commissioned a 2 GeV electron accelerator which is a radiation source for research in science. This accelerator, ‘Synchrotron’, is fully functional at Raja Ramanna Centre for Advanced Technology, Indore. An electron accelerator, Microtron with electron energy 8-10 MeV is functioning at Physics Department, Savitribai Phule Pune University, Pune.

Two identical metal beads, each of mass $M$ but negligible width, can slide along a thin smooth uniform horizontal rod of mass $M$ and length $L$. The rod is capable of rotating about a vertical axis passing through its centre. Initially, the beads are almost touching the axis of rotation and the rod is rotating at speed of $14 \mathrm{rad} / \mathrm{s}$. Find the angular speed of the system when the beads have moved up to the ends of the rod. (Assume that no external torque acts on the system.)
Find the heat needed to melt 100 grams of ice at $0^{\circ} C$, at a pressure of $1.013 \times 10^5 N / m ^2$. What is the work done in this process? What is the change in the internal energy of the system ?
Given : Specific latent heat of fusion of ice $=79.71 cal / g$, density of ice $=0.92 g / cm ^3$, density of water $=1 g / cm ^3, 1 cal =4.186 J$.
A satellite moves around the Earth in an elliptical orbit such that at perigee (closest approach) it is two Earth radii above the Earth's surface. At apogee (farthest position), it travels with one-fourth the speed it has at perigee. In terms of the Earth's radius R, what is the maximum distance of the satellite from the Earth's surface?
