MCQ
The fundamental frequency of a sonometer with a weight of $4\,kg$ is $256\,Hz$ . The weight required to produce its octave is .... $kg-wt$
  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $12$
  • $16$
  • D
    $24$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$16$
c
The octave has double frequency. Hence, the force should be $4$ times the initial value, i.e., $16\,kg-wt$

In a particular system of units, a physical quantity can be expressed in terms of the electric charge $c$, electron mass $m_c$, Planck's constant $h$, and Coulomb's constant $k=\frac{1}{4 \pi \in_0}$, where $\in_0$ is the permittivity of vacuum. In terms of these physical constants, the dimension of the magnetic field is $[B]=[c]^\alpha\left[m_c\right]^\beta[h]^\gamma[k]^\delta$. The value of $\alpha+\beta+\gamma+\delta$ is. . . . .

A wide bottom cylindrical massless plastic container of height $9 \,cm$ has $40$ identical coins inside it and is floating on water with $3 \,cm$ inside the water. If we start putting more of such coins on its lid, it is observed that after $N$ coins are put, its equilibrium changes from stable to unstable. Equilibrium in floating is stable if the geometric centre of the submerged portion is above the centre of the mass of the object). The value of $N$ is closed to
