A spherical tungsten piece of radius $1.0\ cm$ is suspended in an evacuated chamber maintained at $300K.$ The piece is maintained at $1000K$ by heating it electrically. Find the rate at which the electrical energy must be supplied. The emissivity of tungsten is $0.30$ and the Stefan constant $\sigma$ is $6.0 \times 10^{-8}Wm^{-2}K^{-4}.$
→Figure shows two blocks in contact sliding down an inclined surface of inclination $30^\circ .$ The friction coefficient between the block of mass $2.0\ kg$ and the incline is $\mu_1,$ and that between the block of mass $4.0\ kg$ and the incline is $\mu_2.$ Calculate the acceleration of the $2.0\ kg$ block if:
→- $\mu_1=0.20$ and $\mu_2=0.30$
- $\mu_1=0.30$ and $\mu_2=0.20$ Take $\text{g}=10\text{m/s}^2.$

→- A particular electron absorbs a photon and makes two collisions before coming out of the metal. Assuming that $10\%$ of the extra energy is lost to the metal in each collision, find the kinetic energy of this electron as it comes out of the metal.
- Under the same assumptions, find the maximum number of collisions the electron can suffer before it becomes unable to come out of the metal.
A bullet of mass $10g$ moving horizontally at a speed of $5017m/s$ strikes a block of mass $490g$ kept on a frictionless track as shown in figure. The bullet remains inside the block and the system proceeds towards the semicircular track of radius $0.2m$. Where will the block strike the horizontal part after leaving the semicircular track ?
→An electric bulb is designed to consume 55W when operated at 110 volts. It is connected to a 220V, 50Hz line through a choke coil in series. What should be the inductance of the coil for which the bulb gets correct voltage?
A rod, when suspended in a magnetic field, stays in the east-west direction. Can we be sure that the field is in the east-west direction? Can it be in the north-south direction?
Consider an excited hydrogen atom in state $n$ moving with a velocity $u(ν << c).$ It emits a photon in the direction of its motion and changes its state to a lower state $m.$ Apply momentum and energy conservation principles to calculate the frequency $ν$ of the emitted radiation. Compare this with the frequency $ν_0$ emitted if the atom were at rest.
