- A soft plastic bottle, filled with water of density \(1 \mathrm{gm} / \mathrm{cc}\), carries an inverted glass test-tube with some air (ideal gas) trapped as shown in the figure. The test-tube has a mass of \(5 \mathrm{gm}\), and it is made of a thick glass of density \(2.5 \mathrm{gm} / \mathrm{cc}\). Initially the bottle is sealed at atmospheric pressure \(p_{0}=10^{5} \mathrm{~Pa}\) so that the volume of the trapped air is \(v_{0}=3.3 \mathrm{cc}\). When the bottle is squeezed from outside at constant temperature, the pressure inside rises and the volume of the trapped air reduces. It is found that the test tube begins to sink at pressure \(p_{0}+\Delta p\) without changing its orientation. At this pressure, the volume of the trapped air is \(v_{0}-\Delta v\).
Let \(\Delta v=X\) cc and \(\Delta p=Y \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~Pa}\).

- A factory has a total of three manufacturing units, \(M_1, M_2\), and \(M_3\), which produce bulbs independent of each other. The units \(M_1, M_2\), and \(M_3\) produce bulbs in the proportions of 2:2:1, respectively. It is known that \(20 \%\) of the bulbs produced in the factory are defective. It is also known that, of all the bulbs produced by \(M_1, 15 \%\) are defective. Suppose that, if a randomly chosen bulb produced in the factory is found to be defective, the probability that it was produced by \(M_2\) is \(\frac{2}{5}\).
If a bulb is chosen randomly from the bulbs produced by \(M_3\), then the probability that it is defective is ____.JEE Advanced 2025 Hard - The ground state energy of hydrogen atom is .
