Q4. In a meter bridge, when galvanometer & cell positions are interchanged
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

The battery in the circuit(1) shown is connected between A and C, while the galvanometer is connected between B and D. In the bridge balanced condition, 

When the battery and the galvanometer are interchanged, the circuit takes the form (2). The circuit (2) can be re drawn as circuit (3). The ratio of the resistances in the bridge balanced condition is which is same as, 
Q5. Simple harmonic motion is the projection of _____________________ of the circle in which the latter motion takes place.
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Simple harmonic motion is the projection of uniform circular motion.In the above diagram P is the position of particle at at any instant of time.This motion follows the condition of SHM.simple harmonic motion is a type of periodic motion or oscillation motion where the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement and acts in the direction opposite to that of displacement
