Given below are two statements

Statement$-I :$ Two photons having equal linear momenta have equal wavelengths.

Statement$-II :$ If the wavelength of photon is decreased, then the momentum and energy of a photon will also decrease.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

A horizontal plane supports a stationary vertical cylinder of radius $R = 1\ m$ and a disc $A$ attached to the cylinder by a horizontal thread $AB$ of length $l_0 = 2\ m$ (seen in figure, top view). An intial velocity ($v_0 = 1\ m/s$) is imparted $AB$ to the disc as shown in figure. .......... $\sec$ long will it move along the plane until it strikes against the cylinder ?

A light source of wavelength $\lambda$ illuminates a metal surface and electrons are ejected with maximum kinetic energy of 2 eV . If the same surface is illuminated by a light source of wavelength $\frac{\lambda}{2}$, then the maximum kinetic energy of ejected electrons will be (The work function of metal is 1 eV )
A source of $e.m.f.$  $E = 15\,V$ and having negligible internal resistance is connected to a variable resistance so that the current in the circuit increases with time as $i = 1.2 t + 3$. Then, the total charge that will flow in first five second will be ............... $C$
Gravitational potential difference between surface of a planet and a point situated at a height of $20\,m$ above its surface is $2\,joule/kg$. If gravitational field is uniform, then the work done in taking a $5\,kg$ body of height $4\,meter$ above surface will be ........ $J$

The temperature gradient in a rod of $0.5 m$ long is ${80^o}C/m$. If the temperature of hotter end of the rod is ${30^o}C$, then the temperature of the cooler end is ...... $^oC$
A thin paper cup filled with water does not catch fire when placed over a flame. This is because
A particle of mass $\mathrm{m}$ is dropped from a height $h$ above the ground. At the same time another particle of the same mass is thrown vertically upwards from the ground with a speed of $\sqrt{2 \mathrm{gh}} .$ If they collide head-on completely inelastically, the time taken for the combined mass to reach the ground, in units of $\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{g}}}$ is
