A pendulum made of a uniform wire of cross-sectional area A has time period T. When an additional mass M is added to its Bob, the time period changes TM. If Young's modulus of the material of the wire is Y, then 1/Y is equal to (g = gravitational acceleration)

A wooden wheel of radius R is made of two semicircular parts (see figure); The two parts are held together by a ring made of a metal strip of cross sectional area S and length L. L is slightly less than 2πR. To fit the ring on the wheel, it is heated so that it temperature rises by ∆T and it just steps over the wheel. As it cools down to surrounding temperature, it presses the semicircular parts together. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is α, and its Youngs'modulus is Y, the force that one part of the wheel applies on the other part is :

Two identical charged spheres are suspended by strings of equal lengths. The strings make an angle of 30º with each other. When suspended in a liquid of density 0.8 g cm–3, the angle remains the same. If density of the material of the sphere is 1.6 g cm–3, the dielectric constant of the liquid is
