Answer: Option B

As both the fixed resistor and the thermistor are connected in series, the sum of potential difference across them will be equal to the emf of 6.0 V.

Answer: Option B

Answer: Option A Refer to the diagram (below left) which many are familiar. When parallel rays of light which are parallel to the principal axis enter the lens, the rays bend (refraction), come closer and converge to a point on the principal axis called focal point (F) . The distance from the optical centre (C) to the focal point (F) is the focal length (f) . But what if the parallel rays of light entering the lens are not parallel to the principal axis but at an angle as shown on the diagram (below right)? As you can see, the rays refracted and converge to a point P which is along the focal plane (imaginary vertical line through F and is perpendicular to the principal axis). This is similar to L1 in the question. (Refer to the first section of the video simulation below to reinforce your concept) How about L2 in the question? Light is reversible so you can also treat the light rays entering from the right of the lens L2. The parallel rays of light in L2 are at an angle but there is no ray through the optical centre C. Refer to the video below, as you can see, the parallel rays of light will likewise refract and converge to a point, which is along the focal plane too. Hence the focal point of both lenses L1 and L2 is at F2. So the answer is Option A.

Answer: Option C

Solutions: a) Refraction     b) 48.6o     c) c = 41.8o     e) 70o d) Total internal reflection has occured, as the angle of incidence is greater than critical angle and the light is traveling from a denser medium (glass) towards a less dense medium (air) Click on the video tutorial for explanation and working for part (a) and (b). Click on the video tutorial for explanation and working for part (c) to (e).

Solutions: a) 38.8o      b) 41.8o c) 51.2o . The ray does not emerge as total internal reflection has occurred. The angle of incidence is greater than critical angle and the light is traveling from a denser towards a less dense medium.

A short-cut is to think about a couple who are in love or quarrel. When in love, both are walking together in one direction holding hand (i.e. current in both wires are in same direction ). Hence there is ATTRACTION between them. When the couple quarrel, both are walking in opposite direction (i.e. c urrent in opposite direction ). Hence there is REPULSION between them.

The distance-time (displacement-time) graph on the left is not related to the speed-time (velocity-time) graph. Both are of difference scenarios. But both shows the motion of 2 objects and both graph has an interception point. Do the interceptions point mean the same time in each graph? The image below shows the basic interpretation of the respective graphs. To have examples of the graphs with values and the step-by-step how to find the time it overtakes, refer to the videos below. Finding the exact time where the overtaking takes place.
