Amit bought 12 register for Rs 156 find the cost of 8 register.

Answer»
similarly,.      156×8
                            12

                 =1,248
   
               =1248
                   12

            = 104 ans.



sequence will be the same.

Let the cost of 8 registers be Rs.x

Register128
Cost ( in Rs. )156x

If he buys less number of registers, the cost will also be less. 

∴  It is a direct variation.

⇒  12:8=156:x

\(⇒8/12​=x/156​\)

x= 8/12 x156

x= 104

∴  The cost of 8 such registers will be Rs.104

12 --------------> 156

8 -----------------> X

X = 156*8/12

X= 104

In the figure shown surfaces are smooth and blocks `A` and `B` have same mass `m`. The two bodies are displaced right and released. It is found that bodies move according to the equation `x_(A)=A sin(omegat+phi)`, `X_(B)=2Asin(omegat+phi)` A. `(K_(1))/(K_(2))=(3)/(2)`B. `(K_(1))/(K_(2))=(1)/(2)`C. `(K_(1))/(K_(2))=1`D. `(K_(1))/(K_(2))=2`

Answer» `K_(2)A=omega^(2)(2A)`
`K_(1)A-K_(2)A=omega^(2)A`

If the radius and surface tension of a spherical soap bubble be `r` and `T` respectively. Find the charge uniformly distributed over the outer surface of the bubble, is required to double its radius. (Given that atmospheric pressure is `P_(0)` and inside temperature of the bubble during expansion remains constant.)A. `8pir[epsilon_(0)r(7P_(0)r+12T)]^(1//2)`B. `4pir[epsilon_(0)r(7P_(0)r+12T)]^(1//2)`C. `pir[epsilon_(0)r(7P_(0)r+12T)]^(1//2)`D. `8pir[epsilon_(0)r(7P_(0)r+12T)]^(1//3)`

Answer» Before charging the bubble pressure inside the bubble `P_(1)=P_(0)+4T//r`
After charging electrostatic pressure will be `(sigma^(2))/(2epsilon_(0))`
Which will pull the bubble outward.
When radius becomes `2r` then `(P_(1))/(8)+(sigma^(2))/(2epsilon_(0))=P_(0)+(4T)/(2r)`, where `sigma=(q)/(4pi(2r)^(2))`
