The gravitational force acting on a particle,due to a solid sphere of uniform density and radius $R$,at a distance of $3 R$ from the centre of the sphere is $F_1$. $A$ spherical hole of radius $(R / 2)$ is now made in the sphere as shown in the figure. The sphere with hole now exerts a force $F_2$ on the same particle. Ratio of $F_1$ and $F_2$ is

Suppose that $E_1$ and $E_2$ are two events of a random experiment such that $P(E_1) = \frac{1}{4}$, $P(E_2 / E_1) = \frac{1}{2}$ and $P(E_1 / E_2) = \frac{1}{4}$. Observe the lists given below. The correct matching of List-$I$ from List-$II$ is:
List-$I$List-$II$
$(A)$ $P(E_2)$$(i)$ $1/4$
$(B)$ $P(E_1 \cup E_2)$$(ii)$ $5/8$

The transformed equation of $3x^2 + 3y^2 + 2xy = 2$,when the coordinate axes are rotated through an angle of $45^{\circ}$,is

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ of equal surface area have thermal emissivities of $0.01$ and $0.81$ respectively. The two bodies are radiating energy at the same rate. Maximum energy is radiated from the two bodies $A$ and $B$ at wavelengths $\lambda_A$ and $\lambda_B$ respectively. The difference in these two wavelengths is $1 \mu m$. If the temperature of the body $A$ is $5802 \ K$,then the value of $\lambda_B$ is:

If a root of the equations $x^2+px+q=0$ and $x^2+\alpha x+\beta=0$ is common,then its value will be (where $p \neq \alpha$ and $q \neq \beta$)
