If $f: R \rightarrow R$ is defined by $f(x) = \begin{cases} \frac{\cos 3x - \cos x}{x^2}, & \text{for } x \neq 0 \\ \lambda, & \text{for } x = 0 \end{cases}$ and if $f$ is continuous at $x = 0$,then $\lambda$ is equal to

$20 \text{ mL}$ of $0.1 \text{ M}$ acetic acid is mixed with $50 \text{ mL}$ of potassium acetate. $K_a$ of acetic acid $= 1.8 \times 10^{-5}$ at $27^\circ \text{C}$. Calculate the concentration of potassium acetate if the $pH$ of the mixture is $4.8$. (in $\text{ M}$)

Two thin lenses of focal lengths $f_1$ and $f_2$ are in contact and coaxial. The power of the combination is

$A$ metal rod of length $2 \text{ m}$ has cross-sectional areas $2A$ and $A$ as shown in the figure. The ends are maintained at temperatures $100^{\circ}\text{C}$ and $70^{\circ}\text{C}$. The temperature at the middle point $C$ is...... $^{\circ}\text{C}$

$A$ parallel plate capacitor of area $A$,plate separation $d$ and capacitance $C$ is filled with three different dielectric materials having dielectric constants $K_1, K_2$ and $K_3$ as shown in the figure. If a single dielectric material is to be used to have the same capacitance $C$ in this capacitor,then its dielectric constant $K$ is given by: ($A =$ Area of plates)

Two racing cars of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are moving in circles of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively. Their speeds are such that each makes a complete circle in the same time $t$. The ratio of the angular speeds of the first to the second car is
