Q. One day Chetan's mother developed a severe stomach ache all of a sudden. She was rushed to the doctor who suggested for an immediate endoscopy test and gave an estimate of expenditure for the same. Chetan immediately asked her class teacher and arranged the money and rushed to the hospital. On realizing that Chetan belonged to a below average income group family even the doctor offered concession for the test fee. The test was conducted successfully .
Answer the following questions based on the above information;
(a) Which principle in optics is made use of in endoscopy.?
(b) Briefly explain the values reflected in the action taken by the teacher.
(c) In what way do you appreciate the response of the doctor on the given situation?

Q. A rectangular conductor LMNO is placed in a uniform magnetic field of 0.5 T. The field is directed perpendicular to the plane of the conductor. When the arm MN of length of 20 cm is moved towards left with a velocity of 10ms1 calculate the emf induced in the arm. Given the resistance of the arm to be 5Ω (assuming that other arms are of negligible resistance) find the value of the current in the arm.
