- Two large, identical water tanks, 1 and 2, kept on the top of a building of height \(H\), are filled with water up to height \(h\) in each tank. Both the tanks contain an identical hole of small radius on their sides, close to their bottom. A pipe of the same internal radius as that of the hole is connected to tank 2 , and the pipe ends at the ground level. When the water flows from the tanks 1 and 2 through the holes, the times taken to empty the tanks are \(t_1\) and \(t_2\), respectively. If \(H=\left(\frac{16}{9}\right) h\), then the ratio \(t_1 / t_2\) is _______ .JEE Advanced 2024 Medium
- A cube of unit volume contains \(35 \times 10^7\) photons of frequency \(10^{15} \mathrm{~Hz}\). If the energy of all the photons is viewed as the average energy being contained in the electromagnetic waves within the same volume, then the amplitude of the magnetic field is \(\alpha \times 10^{-9} \mathrm{~T}\). Taking permeability of free space \(\mu_0=4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{Tm} / \mathrm{A}\), Planck's constant \(h=6 \times 10^{-34} \mathrm{Js}\) and \(\pi=\frac{22}{7}\), the value of \(\alpha\) is_______JEE Advanced 2025 Hard

- A steel wire of diameter 0.5 mm and Young's modulus \(2 \times 10^{11} Nm ^{-2}\) carries a load of mass M . The length of the wire with the load is 1.0 m . A vernier scale with 10 divisions is attached to the end of this wire. Next to the steel wire is a reference wire to which a main scale, of least count 1.0 mm , is attached. The 10 divisions of the vernier scale correspond to 9 divisions of the main scale. Initially, the zero of vernier scale coincides with the zero of main scale. If the load on the steel wire is increased by \(1.2 k g\), the vernier scale division which coincides with a main scale division is _____________ . Take \(g =10 m s^{-1}\) and \(\pi=3.2\).JEE Advanced 2018 Hard
- Paragraph :
A thermally insulating cylinder has a thermally insulating and frictionless movable partition in the middle, as shown in the figure below. On each side of the partition, there is one mole of an ideal gas, with specific heat at constant volume, \(C_{V}=2 R\). Here, \(R\) is the gas constant. Initially, each side has a volume \(V_{0}\) and temperature \(T_{0}\). The left side has an electric heater, which is turned on at very low power to transfer heat \(Q\) to the gas on the left side. As a result the partition moves slowly towards the right reducing the right side volume to \(V_{0} / 2\). Consequently, the gas temperatures on the left and the right sides become \(T_{L}\) and \(T_{R}\), respectively. Ignore the changes in the temperatures of the cylinder, heater and the partition.
