MCQ
Identify the $WRONG$ statement
  • A
    The electrical potential energy of a system of two protons shall increase if the separation between the two is decreased.
  • The electrical potential energy of a proton electron system will increase if the separation between the two is decreased
  • C
    The electrical potential energy of a proton electron system will increase if the separation between the two is increased
  • D
    The electrical potential energy of system of two electrons shall increase if the separation between the two is decreased

Answer

Correct option: B.
The electrical potential energy of a proton electron system will increase if the separation between the two is decreased
b
For similar charge, $PE$ increases with decreases in $r.$ For dissimilar charge $PE$ decreases with decrease in $r.$

As $P.E.\, = \,\frac{{{Q_1}{Q_2}}}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}r}}$

Two bottles $A$ and $B$ have radii $R_{A}$ and $R_{B}$ and heights $h_{A}$ and $h_{B}$ respectively, with $R_{B}=2 R_{A}$ and $h_{B}=2 h_{A}$. These are filled with hot water at $60^{\circ} C$. Consider that heat loss for the bottles takes place only from side surfaces. If the time, the water takes to cool down to $50^{\circ} C$ is $t_{A}$ and $t_{B}$ for bottles $A$ and $B$, respectively. Then, $t_{A}$ and $t_{B}$ are best related as

A circuit element $X$ when connected to an a.c. supply of peak voltage $100\,V$ gives a peak current of $5\,A$ which is in phase with the voltage. A second element $Y$ when connected to the same a.c. supply also gives the same value of peak current which lags behind the voltage by $\frac{\pi}{2}$. If $X$ and $Y$ are connected in series to the same supply, what will be the rms value of the current in ampere?

$A$ particle of mass m is constrained to move on $x$ -axis. $A$ force $F$ acts on the particle. $F$ always points toward the position labeled $E$. For example, when the particle is to the left of $E, F$ points to the right. The magnitude of $F$ is a constant $F$ except at point $E$ where it is zero. The system is horizontal. $F$ is the net force acting on the particle. The particle is displaced a distance $A$ towards left from the equilibrium position $E$ and released from rest at $t = 0.$ Velocity - time graph of the particle is
