Assertion:  Water kept in an open vessel will quickly evaporate on the surface of the moon. 

Reason:  The temperature at the surface of the moon is much higher than boiling point of water.

• If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

• If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

• If assertion is true but reason is false.

• If both assertion and reason are false.

Assertion:  For  an  isothermal  process  in  an  ideal  gas,  the heat  obsorbed  by the  gas is  entirely  used   in  the  work  done  by  the  gas. 

Reason:  During  a  process  taking  place in  a  system, the temperature remains constant then the  process is isothermal.

A slab consists of two layers of different materials of the same thickness and having thermal conductivities  K₁ and K₂  are connected in series. The equivalent thermal conductivity of the slab is

• $\frac{2 {\mathrm{K}}_1 {\mathrm{K}}_2}{{\mathrm{K}}_1 + {\mathrm{K}}_2}$

• $\sqrt{{\mathrm{K}}_1 {\mathrm{K}}_2}$

• $\frac{{\mathrm{K}}_1 {\mathrm{K}}_2}{{\mathrm{K}}_1 + {\mathrm{K}}_2}$

• K₁ + K₂

A certain gas is taken to the five states represented by dots in the graph. The plotted lines are isotherms. Order of the most portable speed ν_p of the molecules at these five states is

• ν_{p at 3}  > ν_{p at 1} = ν_{p at 2} > ν_{p at 4} = ν_{p at 5}

• ν_{p at 1} > ν_{p at 2} =  ν_{p at 3} > ν_{p at 4} > ν_{p at 5}

• ν_{p at 3} > ν_{p at 2} = ν_{p at 4} > ν_{p at 1} = ν_{p at 5}

Two heater wires, made of the same material and having the same length and the same radius, are first connected in series and then in parallel to a constant potential difference. If the rates of I heat produced in the two cases are H_s  and  H_P respectively, then  H_s/H_P  will be
