In the figure shown below, a resistance of 150.4 $ \Omega $ is connected in series to an ammeter A of resistance 240 $ \Omega $. A shunt resistance of 10 $ \Omega $ is connected in parallel with the ammeter. The reading of the ammeter is ______ mA.
Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
Assertion (A): In an insulated container, a gas is adiabatically shrunk to half of its initial volume. The temperature of the gas decreases.
Reason (R): Free expansion of an ideal gas is an irreversible and an adiabatic process.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:


For the circuit shown above, the equivalent gate is:
Let \( f : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \) be a twice differentiable function such that \[ (\sin x \cos y)(f(2x + 2y) - f(2x - 2y)) = (\cos x \sin y)(f(2x + 2y) + f(2x - 2y)), \] for all \( x, y \in \mathbb{R}. \)
If \( f'(0) = \frac{1}{2} \), then the value of \( 24f''\left( \frac{5\pi}{3} \right) \) is:
