cylinder,

2𝑁1 sin⁡ 𝜃 = 4𝑚𝑔

Now for the equilibrium of lower cylinder,

𝑁2 = 𝑁1 sin⁡ 𝜃 + 𝑚𝑔

and 𝑓 = 𝑁1 cos⁡ 𝜃

or 𝜇𝑁2 = 𝑁1 cos⁡ 𝜃

1. Electrovalent bond is formed as a result of electrostatic attraction between the positive and negative ions.
2. Only (I) is correct.
3. The lowest energy structure is the one with the smallest formal charges on the atoms.
4. NO → Odd Electron molecule H2 SO4 → Expanded octet of S
[Link] compounds in which octet of central atom is incomplete are known as electron deficient compounds.
Hence, B2 H6 is an electron deficient compound

6.
.
7 The electronegativity difference is maximum in O − H bond hence O − H bond length is the smallest
among the given set.
8. All of the given statements are correct.
9. Sigma electrons are not mobile e− .
[Link] dipole moment of symmetrical molecules is zero.
11. In case of anions having same charge as the size of anion increases, polarisibility of anion also increases.
12. Ionic bond with small cation and large anion has covalent character.
13. According to Avogadro's law "equal volumes of all gases contain equal number of molecules under similar
conditions of temperature and pressure". Thus if 1L of one gas contains N molecules, 2L of any other gas
under the same conditions of temperature and pressure will contain 2N molecules.
[Link] proposed that matter consists of atom which is indivisible and chemical reaction involve
reorganisation of atoms. Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.

1. Given (a, b, c) in A.P. ⇒ b = (a + c)/2, and (a², b², c²) in G.P. ⇒ b² = √(a²c²) ⇒ b = √(ac).
Therefore, √(ac) = (a + c)/2 ⇒ common ratio = (a + c)/(2b).

2. Let the G.P. be: ar⁴ = 2 (5th term), then product of first 9 terms = (ar⁴)^9 = 2⁹ = 512.

4. Let first term a and common ratio r. Given: ar³ = 8, ar⁶ = 64, ar⁹ = 512 ⇒ a = 1.

5. tan⁻¹(1) + tan⁻¹(2) + tan⁻¹(3) = π (standard identity).

6. sin x = 1/2 ⇒ x = π/6, 5π/6 ⇒ General solution: x = 2nπ ± π/6.

7. Given cos²A + cos²B + cos²C = 1 ⇒ triangle is right-angled (known identity).

8. Let a, ar, ar² in G.P. with sum = 39, sum of squares = 683. Try r = 3 ⇒ a = 3 ⇒ b = 9.
