A source emitting sound at frequency 4000Hz, is moving along the Y-axis with a speed of 22m/s. A listener is situated on the ground at the position (660m, 0). Find the frequency of the sound received by the listener at the instant the source the origin. Speed of sound in air = 330m/s.
One day Chetan’s mother developed a severe stomach ache all of a sudden. She was rushed to the doctor who suggested for an immediate endoscopy test and gave an estimate of expenditure for the same. Chetan immediately contacted his class teacher and shared the information with her. The class teacher arranged for the money and rushed to the hospital. On realising that Chetan belonged to a below average income group family, even the doctor offered concession for the test fee. The test was conducted successfully.

Fe+ ions are accelerated through a potential difference of 500V and are injected normally into a homogeneous magnetic field B of strength 20.0mT. Find the radius of the circular paths followed by the isotopes with mass numbers 57 and 58. Take the mass of an ion = A (1.6 × 10-27)kg, where A is the mass number.
Water at 50°C is filled in a closed cylindrical vessel of height 10cm and cross sectional area 10cm2. The walls of the vessel are adiabatic but the flat parts are made of 1mm thick aluminium $(\text{K}=200\text{Js}^{-1}\text{m}^{-1}{^{\circ}}\text{C}^{-1}).$ Assume that the outside temperature is 20°C. The density of water is 1000kgm-3, and the specific heat capacity of water $= 4200\text{Jkg}^{-1}{^{\circ}}\text{C}^{-1}.$ Estimate the time taken for the temperature to fall by 1.0°C. Make any simplifying assumptions you need but specify them.
An electron is emitted with negligible speed from the negative plate of a parallel-plate capacitor charged to a potential difference V. The separation between the plates is d and a magnetic field Bexists in the space, as shown in the figure. Show that the electron will fail to strike the upper plates if $\text{d}>\Big(\frac{2\text{m}_\text{e}\text{v}}{\text{eB}^2}\Big)^{\frac{1}{2}}.$
