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 _____________ .

- Paragraph :
When liquid medicine of density \(\rho\) is to be put in the eye, it is done with the help of a dropper. As the bulb on the top of the dropper is pressed, a drop forms at the opening of the dropper. We wish to estimate the size of the drop.
We first assume that the drop formed at the opening is spherical because that requires a minimum increase in its surface energy. To determine the size, we calculate the net vertical force due to the surface tension \(T\) when the radius of the drop is \(R\). When this force becomes smaller than the weight of the drop, the drop gets detached from the dropper.
Question :
If \(r=5 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~m}, \rho=10^3 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{-3}\), \(g=10 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}, T=0.11 \mathrm{Nm}^{-1}\), the radius of the drop when it detaches from the dropper is approximatelyJEE Advanced 2010 Easy - Paragraph :
A special metal \(S\) conducts electricity without any resistance. A closed wire loop, made of \(S\), does not allow any change in flux through itself by inducing a suitable current to generate a compensating flux. The induced current in the loop cannot decay due to its zero resistance. This current gives rise to a magnetic moment which in turn repels the source of magnetic field or flux. Consider such a loop, of radius \(a\), with its center at the origin. A magnetic dipole of moment \(m\) is brought along the axis of this loop from infinity to a point at distance \(r(\gg a)\) from the center of the loop with its north pole always facing the loop, as shown in the figure below.
The magnitude of magnetic field of a dipole \(m\), at a point on its axis at distance \(r\), is \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{2 \pi} \frac{m}{r^{3}}\), where \(\mu_{0}\) is the permeability of free space. The magnitude of the force between two magnetic dipoles with moments, \(m_{1}\) and \(m_{2}\), separated by a distance \(r\) on the common axis, with their north poles facing each other, is \(\frac{k m_{1} m_{2}}{r^{4}}\), where \(k\) is a constant of appropriate dimensions. The direction of this force is along the line joining the two dipoles.

- List-I shows four configurations, each consisting of a pair of ideal electric dipoles. Each dipole has a dipole moment of magnitude \(p\), oriented as marked by arrows in the figures. In all the configurations the dipoles are fixed such that they are at a distance \(2 r\) apart along the \(x\) direction. The midpoint of the line joining the two dipoles is \(X\).
