Consider a solid insulating sphere of radius $R$ with charge density varying as $\rho = \rho_0 r^2$ (where $\rho_0$ is a constant and $r$ is measured from the centre). Consider two points $A$ and $B$ at distances $x$ and $y$ respectively from the centre,such that $x < R$ and $y > R$. If the magnitudes of the electric fields at points $A$ and $B$ are equal,then:

The coefficient of apparent expansion of mercury in a glass vessel is $153 \times 10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$ and in a steel vessel is $144 \times 10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$. If $\alpha$ for steel is $12 \times 10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$,then $\alpha$ for glass is:

An infinitely long conductor $PQR$ is bent to form a right angle as shown. $A$ current $I$ flows through $PQR$. The magnetic field due to this current at the point $M$ is $H_1$. Now,another infinitely long straight conductor $QS$ is connected at $Q$ such that the current in $PQ$ remains unchanged. The magnetic field at $M$ is now $H_2$. The ratio $H_1/H_2$ is given by
