खाली दोन विधाने आहेत. त्यापैकी (अ) हे विधान असून (र) हे त्याचे कारण आहे खालील दिलेल्या पर्यायांपैकी योग्य पर्याय निवडा. विधान (अ) : विषुववृत्तीय प्रदेशामध्ये सागराची क्षारता कमी असते. कारण (र) : विषुववृत्तीय प्रदेश हा अति पर्जन्यमान, आभाच्छादित आकाश आणि आर्द्रता ही वैशिष्ट्ये असलेला आहे. Given below are two statements, one labelled as Assertion (A) and the other labelled as Reason (R). Select your answer from the following options. Assertion (A) : Oceanic salinity is low in the equatorial region. Reason (R) : Equatorial region is characterized by heavy rainfall, cloudiness and humidity.
High rainfall in the equatorial region brings freshwater, which dilutes the ocean water and lowers its salinity, making both the assertion and reason true and properly linked.

For a person with least distance of distinct vision D = 50 cm (normal is 25 cm), a convex lens is used to correct hypermetropia. Using the lens formula with object distance u = -25 cm and image distance v = -50 cm gives a focal length of 50 cm.
Q39
10 ओमचा रोध 12 V च्या विद्युतघटस जोडल्यास रोधातून 1.1 A विद्युतधारा वाहते. विद्युतघटाचा अंतर्गत रोध काढा. A resistor of 10 Ω connected across a cell of emf 12 V, draws the current of 1.1 A. Find the internal resistance of the cell.
Using formula E = I(R + r), where E = 12V, I = 1.1A, R = 10Ω. 12 = 1.1(10 + r) => 10 + r = 12/1.1 = 10.91 => r = 0.91 Ω.
Q40
एकमेकांपासून 1 मिलिमीटर अंतरावर असलेली दोन समांतर रेखाच्छिद्र पडद्यापासून 1 मीटर अंतरावर ठेवलेल्या आहेत. त्यांच्यावर 500 नॅनोमीटर तरंगलांबीची शलाका सोडल्यानंतर पडद्यावर व्यतिकरण परिणामामुळे तयार झालेल्या पत्तीमधील अंतर किती ? Two parallel slits 1 millimetre apart are placed 1 metre away from the screen. What is the fringe separation due to interference effect, when a beam of wavelength 500 nanometres is incident on them ?
Fringe separation formula β = λD / d. Substituting λ = 500 nm, D = 1 m, d = 1 mm gives the fringe width as 0.5 mm.
