Explanation

• Physical pendulum depends on moment of inertia (I) and distance (d) from pivot to center of mass.
• Time period increases when mass is farther from pivot (larger d).
• Standard formula is T = 2π√(I/Mgd).

Explanation

• Clouds float in the atmosphere because they are less dense than the surrounding air. Clouds are formed when water vapor in the air condenses into visible liquid droplets or ice crystals. These droplets or crystals are suspended in the air, and because they are less dense than the air, they float.
• The density of a cloud is typically around 0.05-0.5 g/m³, which is much less than the density of air, which is around 1.2 g/m³. This density difference allows clouds to remain suspended in the air, even though they are heavier than air in terms of their mass.

Explanation

To find the energy stored in a capacitor, we use the formula:

E=1/2​CV^2

Where:

• $\mathrm{<br>}$

• $V=100\text{V}$

Calculation:

$$E = frac{1}{2} times 4 times 10^{-6} times (100)^2$$E=1/2​×4×10^−6×10000
E=2×10^−6×10000

$$=0.02\text{J}$$

Explanation

The power of the lens is the reciprocal of focal length.

The SI unit is dioptre.

Dioptre (D)

Power of lens = 1/ focal length in meter.

Explanation

In a reversible process, the entropy of the system remains constant. 

 A key characteristic of a reversible process is that it can be reversed without leaving any net change in the system or its surroundings, including the entropy. 

Explanation

Magnetic lines of force always form closed loops from the north pole to the south pole outside the magnet and continue inside the magnet.

They never start or end abruptly like electric field lines.

Explanation

Explanation

Cloud formation typically occurs in the atmosphere under constant pressure conditions, meaning it is an isobaric process

Explanation

The substance reduces to (1/16) = (1/2)^4 of its original mass.  

This means 4 half-lives = 40 days  

So, 1 half-life = 40 / 4 = 10 days
