The phenomenon of rotation of plane polarised light is called
A particle performing uniform circular motion has angular momentum $L$. If its angular frequency is doubled and its kinetic energy halved, then the new angular momentum is
A particle covers $150\, m$ in $8^\text{th}$ second starting from rest, its acceleration is:
A neutron makes a head-on elastic collision with a stationary deuteron. The fractional energy loss of the neutron in the collision is
A marble block of mass $2 \,kg$ lying on ice when given a velocity of $6\, m/s$ is stopped by friction in $10\, s$. then the coefficient of friction is
A lead shot of $1\, mm$ diameter falls through a long column of glycerine. The variation of its velocity $v$ with distance covered is represented by
A horizontal force of $10\, N$ is necessary to just hold a block stationary against a wall. The coefficient of friction between the block and the wall is $0.2$. The weight of the block is
Chronometer measures:

The practical unit of resistance is $ \Omega .1 \, \Omega $ is equal to:
A black body, at a temperature of $227^{\circ} C$, radiates heat at a rate of $20 \,cal\, m ^{-2} s ^{-1} .$ When its temperature is raised to $727^{\circ} C$, the heat radiated by it in $cal \,m ^{-2} s ^{-1}$ will be closest to
A double slit experiment is performed with light of wavelength $500\, nm$. A thin film of thickness $2\, \mu m$ and refractive index $1.5$ is introduced in the path of the upper beam. The location of the central maximum will
A beam of charged particles is employed in the treatment of cancer. Charged particles on passing through a material medium lose their energy by causing ionization of the atoms along their path.
The motion of planets in the solar system is an example of conservation of
