For the determination of refractive index of glass slab, a travelling microscope is used whose main scale contains 300 equal divisions equals to 15 cm. The vernier scale attached to the microscope has 25 divisions equals to 24 divisions of main scale. The least count (LC) of the travelling microscope is (in cm) :
- A \(0.001\)
- B \(0.002\)
- C \(0.0005\)
- D \(0.0025\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(0.002\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\begin{aligned} & 300 \mathrm{msd}=15 \mathrm{~cm} \\ & 1 \mathrm{msd}=\frac{15}{300} \mathrm{~cm}=0.05 \mathrm{~cm} \\ & 25 \mathrm{vsd}=24 \mathrm{msd} \\ & 1 \mathrm{vsd}=\frac{24}{25} \mathrm{msd} \\ & \mathrm{LC}=1 \mathrm{msd}-1 \mathrm{vsd}\end{aligned}\)…

- Three blocks \(A, B\) and \(C\) are lying on a smooth horizontal surface, as shown in the figure. \(A\) and \(B\) have equal masses, \(m\) while \(C\) has mass \(M\). Block \(A\) is given an initial speed \(v\) towards \(B\) due to which it collides with \(B\) perfectly inelastically. The combined mass collides with \(C\), also perfectly inelastically. The combined mass collides with \(C\), also perfectly inelastically if \(\frac{5}{6}^{th}\) of the initial kinetic energy is lost in whole process. What is value of \(M/m\) ?
