Q:

A copper wire of radius r and length lhas a resistance of R. A second copper wire with radius 2r and length lis taken and the two wires  are  joined  in  a  parallel  combination. The  resultant  resistance   of  the  parallel combination of the two wires will be

A) 5 R B) 5 R/4
C) 4 R/5 D) R/5
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) R/5

Explanation:

1st copper wire: R = pl/A = pl/ πr2

2ndcopper wire: R’ = p’l’/A’ = pl/(4 πr2) = R/4

If joined in parallel, (1/Req) = (1/R) + (1/R’)

= 1/R + 4/R1/Req= 5/R

Req= R/5

Q:

The velocity required to place a vehicle in orbit round the moon is _______ that required to place it in orbit round the earth 

A) less than B) Greater than
C) equal to D) greater than or equal to
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) less than

Explanation:

This orbital velocity at the moon is less because orbital velocity = rg

 

where 'r ' is the orbital radius. i.e the distance of the body from the center of the earth and 'g' is the acceleration due to gravity on the body in question. In the case of the moon, both r and g are less than in the case of the earth.
