Figure shows a smooth track, a part of which is a circle of radius R. A block of mass m is pushed against a spring of spring constant k fixed at the left end and is then released. Find the initial compression of the spring so that the block presses the track with a force mg when it reaches the point P, where the radius of the track is horizontal.
A convex lens produces a double size real image when an object is placed at a distance of 18cm from it. Where should the object be placed to produce a triple size real image?
A source of ac voltage v = v0 $\sin\omega t$, is connected across a pure inductor of inductance L. Derive the expressions for the instantaneous current in the circuit. Show that average power dissipated in the circuit is zero.
→An electric toaster uses nichrome for its heating element. When a negligibly small current passes through it, its resistance at room temperature $\left(27.0^{\circ} C \right)$ is found to be $75.3 \Omega$. When the toaster is connected to a $230 V$ supply, the current settles, after a few seconds, to a steady value of $2.68 A$. What is the steady temperature of the nichrome element? The temperature coefficient of resistance of nichrome averaged over the temperature range involved, is $1.70 \times 10^{-4}{ }^{\circ} C ^{-1}$.
