MCQ

The least count of the main scale of a vernier callipers is $1\, mm$. Its vernier scale is divided into $10$ divisions and coincide with $9$ divisions of the main scale. When jaws are touching each other, the $7$ th division of vernier scale coincides with a division of main scale and the zero of vernier scale is lying right side of the zero of main scale. When this vernier is used to measure length of a cylinder the zero of the vernier scale between $3.1\, cm$ and $3.2\, cm$ and $4^{th}$ $VSD$ coincides with a main scale division.The length of the cylinder is $.....cm$

($VSD$ is vernier scale division)

A
$3.21$
B
$2.99$
C
$3.2$
✓
$3.07$

✓

Answer

Correct option: D.

$3.07$

d
Least count $=1 mm$ or $0.01 cm$

Zero error $=0+0.01 \times 7=0.07 cm$

Reading $=3.1+(0.01 \times 4)-0.07$

$=3.1+0.04-0.07$

$=3.1-0.03$

$=3.07 cm$

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 body has speed $V, 2\,V$ and $3\,V$ in first $1/3$ of distance $S$, second $1/3$ of $S$ and third $1/3$ of $S$ respectively. Its average speed will be :-

Two Carnot engines $A$ and $B$ are operated in series. The first one, $A,$ receives heat at $T_1(= 600\,K)$ and rejects to a reservoir at temperature $T_2.$ The second engine $B$ receives heat rejected by the first engine and, in turns, rejects to a heat reservoir at $T_3 (=400\,K).$ Calculate the temperature $T_2$ if the work outputs of the two engines are equal ..... $K$

A car starts from rest and moves with uniform acceleration $'a'$ on a straight road from time $t = 0$ to $t = T$ . After that, a constant deceleration $'a'$ brings it to rest. In this process the average speed of the car is

$Assertion :$ Adiabatic expansion is always accompanied by fall in temperature.
$Reason :$ In adiabatic process, volume is inversely proportional to temperature.
