MCQ
The separation between two microscopic particles is measured ${P_A}$ and ${P_B}$ by two different lights of wavelength $2000 \;\mathring A $ and $3000 \;\mathring A $ respectively, then
  • A
    ${P_A} > {P_B}$
  • ${P_A} < {P_B}$
  • C
    ${P_A} < \frac{{3}}{{2}} {P_B}$
  • D
    ${P_A} = {P_B}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
${P_A} < {P_B}$
b
Resolving limit (minimum separation)$ \propto \lambda $

$ \Rightarrow \frac{{{P_A}}}{{{P_B}}} = \frac{{2000}}{{3000}} \Rightarrow {P_A} < {P_B}$

In the circuit shown in the figure, there are two parallel plate capacitors each of capacitance $C$. The switch $S _1$ is pressed first to fully charge the capacitor $C_1$ and then released. The switch $S_2$ is then pressed to charge the capacitor $C _2$. After some time, $S _2$ is released and then $S _3$ is pressed. After some time.
