Wires $A$ and $B$ have identical lengths and have circular cross-sections. The radius of $A$ is twice the radius of $B$ $i.e.$ ${r_A} = 2{r_B}$. For a given temperature difference between the two ends, both wires conduct heat at the same rate. The relation between the thermal conductivities is given by

The weight of a body at the centre of the earth is

In the figure shown, the two identical balls of mass $M$ and radius $R$ each, are placed in contact with each other on the frictionless horizontal surface. The third ball of mass $M$ and radius $R/2$, is coming down vertically and has a velocity $= v_0$ when it simultaneously hits the two balls and itself comes to rest. Then, each of the two bigger balls will move after collision with a speed equal to

Under what condition current passing through the resistance $R$ can be increased by short circuiting the battery of emf $E_2$. The internal resistances of the two batteries are $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively.

At $40\,^oC$, a brass wire of $1\, mm$ is hung from the ceiling. A small mass, $M$ is hung from the free end of the wire. When the wire is cooled down from $40\,^oC$ to $20\,^oC$ it regains its original length of $0.2\, m$. The value of $M$ is close to $.......kg$ $($Coefficient of linear expansion and Young's modulus of brass are $10^{-5}/^oC$ and $10^{11}\, N/m^2$, respectively; $g = 10\, ms^{-2})$
