A wooden block of mass M lies on a rough floor. Another wooden block of the same mass is hanging from the point O through strings as shown in the figure. To achieve equilibrium, the coefficient of static friction between the block on the floor and the floor itself is
In an experiment to determine the figure of merit of a galvanometer by half deflection method, a student constructed the following circuit. He applied a resistance of \( 520 \, \Omega \) in \( R \). When \( K_1 \) is closed and \( K_2 \) is open, the deflection observed in the galvanometer is 20 div. When \( K_1 \) is also closed and a resistance of \( 90 \, \Omega \) is removed in \( S \), the deflection becomes 13 div. The resistance of galvanometer is nearly:
A frog is any member of a miscellaneous and largely carnivorous group of short-bodied, tailless amphibians constituting the order Anura. Frogs are extensively distributed, ranging from the tropics to subarctic regions, but the significant concentration of species diversity is in tropical rainforests. Frogs account for around 88% of enduring amphibian species. They are also one of the five most varied vertebrate orders. Warty frog species tend to be termed toads, but the divergence between frogs and toads is informal, not from taxonomy or evolutionary history.
An adult frog has a stout (fat and round) body, protruding eyes, limbs folded underneath, anteriorly-attached tongue, and no tail. Frogs have glandular skin, with secretions aligning from distasteful to toxic. Their skin differs in color from well-camouflaged dappled (dots and spots) brown, grey and green to lifelike patterns of bright red or yellow and black to show toxicity and ward off predators. Adult frogs live in fresh water and on dry land and some species are adapted for living underground or in trees.
