In which of the following circuits is the current maximum just after the switch $S$ is closed?

The potential energy function for the force between two atoms in a diatomic molecule is approximately given by $U(x) = \frac{a}{x^{12}} - \frac{b}{x^6}$,where $a$ and $b$ are constants and $x$ is the distance between the atoms. If the dissociation energy of the molecule is $D = [U(x = \infty) - U_{\text{equilibrium}}]$,what is the value of $D$?

Along the $x$-axis,three charges $\frac{q}{2}, -q$ and $\frac{q}{2}$ are placed at $x=0, x=a$ and $x=2a$ respectively. The resultant electric potential at a point $P$ located at a distance $r$ from the charge $-q$ (where $r > a$) is ($\varepsilon_0$ is the permittivity of free space):

Which of the following compounds will exhibit geometrical isomerism?

The locus of the centre of a circle which always passes through the fixed points $(a, 0)$ and $(-a, 0)$ is

$Ge$ and $Si$ diodes conduct at $0.3 \ V$ and $0.7 \ V$ respectively. In the following figure,if the $Ge$ and $Si$ diode connections are reversed,the value of $V_0$ changes by .....$V$.
