II. Conservation of light energy.
III. Relative motion of the earth, sun and moon.
IV. Rectilinear propation of light.
which of the above is a phenomenon of total solar eclipse?
Due to rectilinear propagation of light we have ecslipse which occur as a result relative motion of the earth, sun and moon
Users' Answers & CommentsMagnification = (image height)/object height
= (lenght camera)/object distance from pin-hole
∴(2)/4 = (6)/X
X (4 x 6)/2 = 12 cm
Users' Answers & Comments(1)/V + (1)/U = (1)/f
(1)/V + (1)/20 = (1)/10
(1)/V = (1)/10 - (1)/20 = (2 -1)/20 = (1)/20
∴ V = 20 cm
mag = (image height)/object height = (v)/u
(X)/5 = (20)/50
X = 5 cm

Users' Answers & Comments[least distance of distinct vision D = 25 cm]
Angular magnification, M = ((D)/F + 1) where D is least distance of distinct vision
∴ M = ((25)/5 + 1) = -6
Users' Answers & CommentsThe friction between the tanker and air creates charges which the chain conducts to the ground.
Users' Answers & CommentsPower supplied = IE = 20 X 240 = 4800 W
Power dissipated = IV = 20 X 220 = 4400 W
(Power supplied)/Power dissipated = (4800 W)/4400 W
= (12)/11
Users' Answers & CommentsEnergy consumed = power x time
= (60 W x 10 + 40 W x 5) x 24 h
= (600 W + 200 W ) x 24 h
= 800 W x 24h = 19200 w h
= 19.2 kWh
