An alternating electric field of frequency v is applied across the dees (radius =R ) of a cyclotron that is being used to accelerate protons (mass = m). The operating magnetic field (B) used in the cyclotron and the kinetic energy (K) of the proton beam, produced by it are given by
Two sphere A and B of masses m1 and m2 respectively collide. A is at rest initially and B is moving with velocity v along the x -axis. After the collision, B has a velocity v/2 in a direction perpendicular to the original direction. The mass A moves after collision in the direction
same as that of B
opposite to that of B

Liquid oxygen at 50 K is heated to 3000 K at a constant pressure of 1 atm. The rate of heating is constant. which one of the following graphs represents the variation of temperature with time?
One mole of an ideal gas goes from an initial state A to final state B via two processes. It first undergoes isothermal expansion from volume V to 3V and then its volume is reduced from 3V to V at constant pressure. The correct p-V diagram representing the two processes is
