Suggest a method to produce a rainbow in your house.

A rainbow can be produced using a prism. Another way of producing a rainbow is to dip a mirror inside water, keeping it inclined along the wall of a tumbler. The light coming from water after reflecting from the mirror will give a rainbow.

Calculate the bulk modulus of air from the following data about a sound wave of wavelength 35cm travelling in air. The pressure at a point varies between $(1.0\times10^5\pm14)$ Pa and the particles of the air vibrate in simple harmonic motion of amplitude 5.5 × 10-6m.
→Metallic (nonferromagnetic) and nonmetallic particles in a solid waste may be separated as follows. The waste is allowed to slide down an incline over permanent magnets. The metallic particles slow down as compared to the norunetallic ones and hence are separated. Discuss the role of eddy currents in the process.
