$A$ man of mass $M$ stands at one end of a plank of length $L$ which lies at rest on a frictionless surface. The man walks to other end of the plank. If the mass of the plank is $\frac{M}{3}$ , then the distance that the man moves  relative to ground is :
If the pressure in a closed vessel is reduced by drawing out some gas, the mean free path of the molecules
Figure below shows a shampoo bottle in a perfect cylindrical shape. In a simple experiment, the stability of the bottle filled with different amount of shampoo volume is observed. The bottle is tilted from one side and then released. Let the angle $\theta$ depicts the critical angular displacement resulting, in the bottle losing its stability and tipping over. Choose the graph correctly depicting the fraction $f$ of shampoo filled $(f=1$ corresponds to completely filled) versus the tipping angle $\theta$
When a wave travels in a medium, the particle displacements are given by $y = a\, sin\, 2\pi\, (bt -cx)$ where $a, b,$ and $c$ are constants. The maximum particle velocity will be twice the wave velocity if
A given mass $m$ of a hypothetical solid is supplied with heat continuously at a constant rate and the graph shown in the adjacent figure is plotted. If $L_f$ and $L_v$ are latent heats of fusion and latent heats of vaporization and $S_l$ and $S_s$ are specific heats of liquid and solid respectively. It can be concluded that
