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 After some oxygen is withdrawn from the cylinder, its gauge pressure drops to 11 atmospheric pressure at temperature \(27^\circ\)C. The mass of the oxygen withdrawn from the cylinder is nearly equal to: [Given, \(R = \frac{100}{12} \text{ J mol}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1}\), and molecular mass of \(O_2 = 32 \text{ g/mol}\), 1 atm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

Fertilisation
Fertilization happens when a sperm fuses with the female act during sexual intercourse and further forms an egg that gets implanted in the uterus of the female. The sperm goes through the fallopian tube and penetrates the zona pellucida layer of the ovum (female egg) and then fuses with it which forms a zygote (fertilized egg). Thousand of sperms are generated in a male body to compensate for the ones unfit and non-motile ones. Once the zygote is created or formed, it gets implanted in the uterus and further growth starts taking place when cells start dividing and forming tissues, and tissues further form organs which result in the formation of an organ system, eventually or in time turning into an organism.
