A potentiometer wire \(AB\) having length \(L\) and resistance \(12\, r\) is joined to a cell \(D\) of \(emf\) \(\varepsilon \) and internal resistance \(r\). A cell \(C\) having \(emf\) \(\varepsilon /2\) and internal resistance \(3r\) is connected. The length \(AJ\) at which the galvanometer as shown in figure shows no deflection is

Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\frac{{13}}{{24}}\,L\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(V_{A J}=I R_{A J}\)
\(\frac{E}{3}=\left(\frac{E}{12 r+3 r}\right) \times\left(\frac{x}{L} \times 12 r\right)\)

- A ball of mass \(10\, kg\) moving with a velocity \(10 \sqrt{3} m / s\) along the \(x-\)axis, hits another ball of mass \(20\, kg\) which is at rest. After the collision, first ball comes to rest while the second ball disintegrates into two equal pieces. One piece starts moving along \(y-\)axis with a speed of \(10\) \(m / s\). The second piece starts moving at an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) with respect to the \(x-\)axis. The velocity of the ball moving at \(30^{\circ}\) with \(x-\) axis is \(x\, m / s\). The configuration of pieces after collision is shown in the figure below. The value of \(x\) to the nearest integer is
