A bob of heavy mass \(m\) is suspended by a light string of length \(l\). The bob is given a horizontal velocity \(v_0\) as shown in figure. If the string gets slack at some point P making an angle \( \theta \) from the horizontal, the ratio of the speed \(v\) of the bob at point P to its initial speed \(v_0\) is :

- An oxygen cylinder of volume 30 litre has 18.20 moles of oxygen. After some oxygen is withdrawn from the cylinder, its gauge pressure drops to 11 atmospheric pressure at temperature \(27^\circ\)C. The mass of the oxygen withdrawn from the cylinder is nearly equal to: [Given, \(R = \frac{100}{12} \text{ J mol}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1}\), and molecular mass of \(O_2 = 32 \text{ g/mol}\), 1 atm pressure = \(1.01 \times 10^5 \text{ N/m}^2\)]

Concepts Used:
Leaf
A primary function of the leaf is to provide nourishment for a plant. Leaves get this by extracting water from the earth and carbon dioxide from the air with the help of sunshine.
Parts of a leaf
Following are the parts of a leaf:
- The top part of the leaf is the apex or tip that can be round, pointed, and smooth.
- On most leaves, the lamina, or leaf blade, is the broadest part of the leaf.
- A petiole is a leaf that links to the plant stem.
- Stipules, which are little green addendums near the base of the petiole, can also be seen on leaves.
- Most leaves have a midrib that branches out to initiate vascular tissue veins on the sides.
- Margin refers to the leaf's outer border, which varies depending on the plant type.
- At the bottom of the blade, the base is found; it can be flat, heart-shaped, and round.
