$0$
$1.2 \text{ m s}^{-1}$
$2.4 \text{ m s}^{-1}$
$1.44 \text{ m s}^{-1}$
The critical angle between an equilateral prism and air is $45^\circ$. What happens to the incident ray perpendicular to the refracting surface?
It is reflected totally from the second surface and emerges perpendicular from the third surface.
It gets reflected from second and third surfaces and emerges from the first surface.
It keeps reflecting from all the three sides of the prism and never emerges out.
After deviation, it gets refracted from the second surface.

only total reflection
dispersion and total internal reflection
scattering

watt
metre
dioptre

$R/4$
$R/2$
$R$
$2R$

Answer the following question
State the law of conservation of momentum.
A jumbo jet of mass travelling at a speed of lands on the airport. It takes to come to rest. Calculate the average force applied by the ground on the aeroplane.
After landing the aeroplane’s momentum becomes zero. Explain how the law of conservation holds here.
State Hooke’s law.
The walls of the tyres on a car are made of a rubber compound. The variation with stress of the strain of a specimen of this rubber compound is shown in Fig. As the car moves, the walls of the tyres bend and straighten continuously. Use Fig. to explain why the walls of the tyres become warm.

What is meant by specific latent heat of vaporization of water = $2.26 \text{ MJ kg}^{-1}$?
A $1.0 \text{ kW}$ kettle contains $500 \text{ g}$ of boiling water. Calculate the time needed to evaporate all the water in the kettle. (Specific latent heat of vaporization of water = $2.26 \text{ MJ kg}^{-1}$).
Explain why the actual time needed is a little longer than the time calculated in 2(b).
State any three properties of an ideal gas as assumed by the kinetic theory of gas.
A student needed to use the ideal gas for a certain experiment. But, the ideal gas does not exist. Suggest what two different things this student could do to solve his problem.
Define temperature gradient in an object.
An electric kitchen range has a total wall area of $1.40 \text{ m}^2$ and is insulated with a layer of fiber glass that has a temperature of $175^\circ \text{C}$ and its outside surface is $35^\circ \text{C}$. The fiber glass has a thermal conductivity of $0.040 \text{ W m}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1}$. Calculate the rate of flow of heat through the insulation, assuming the fibre as a flat slab of area $1.40 \text{ m}^2$.
How might the rate of conduction be affected if the fiber absorbs moisture? Justify your answer.
