In a meter bridge experiment null point is obtained at \(40\, cm\) from one end of the wire when resistance \(X\) is balanced against another resistance \(Y\). If \(X < Y\), then the new position of the null point from the same end, if one decides to balance a resistance of \(3X\) against \(Y\), will be close to .............. \(cm\)

The cut-off voltage of the diodes (shown in figure) in forward bias is \(0.6 \,V\). The current through the resister of \(40 \,\Omega\) is ........... \(mA\).

If an emitter current is changed by \(4\, mA ,\) the collector current changes by \(3.5\, mA\). The value of \(\beta\) will be

Two light identical springs of spring constant \(k\) are attached horizontally at the two ends of a uniform horizontal rod \(AB\) of length \(l\) and mass \(m\). the rod is pivoted at its centre \(‘O’\) and can rotate freely in horizontal plane. The other ends of the two springs are fixed to rigid supports as shown in figure. The rod is gently pushed through a small angle and released. The frequency of resulting oscillation is

A heater is designed to operate with a power of \(1000 \mathrm{~W}\) in a \(100 \mathrm{~V}\) line. It is connected in combination with a resistance of \(10 \Omega\) and a resistance \(R\), to a \(100 \mathrm{~V}\) mains as shown in figure.

A body of mass \(M\) at rest explodes into three pieces, in the ratio of masses \(1: 1: 2\). Two smaller pieces fly off perpendicular to each other with velocities of \(30 \,ms ^{-1}\) and \(40 \,ms ^{-1}\) respectively. The velocity of the third piece will be ............... \(\,ms ^{-1}\)

A printed page is pressed by a glass of water. The refractive index of the glass and water is \(1.5\) and \(1.33\), respectively. If the thickness of the bottom of glass is \(1\, cm\) and depth of water is \(5\, cm\) , how much the page will appear to be shifted if viewed from the top ?
