A large spherical mass M is fixed at one position and two identical point masses m are kept on a line
passing through the centre of M (see figure). The point masses are connected by a rigid massless rod of
length and this assembly is free to move along the line connecting them. All three masses interact only
through their mutual gravitational interaction. When the point mass nearer to M is at a distance r = 3 from
M, the tension in the rod is zero for m = k(M/288). The value of k is

In a thin rectangular metallic strip a constant current I flows along the positive x-direction, as shown in the figure. The length, width and thickness of the strip are , w and d, respectively. A uniform magnetic field is applied on the strip along the positive y-direction. Due to this, the charge carriers experience a net deflection along the zdirection. This results in accumulation of charge carriers on the surface PQRS and appearance of equal and opposite charges on the face opposite to PQRS. A potential difference along the z-direction is thus developed. Charge accumulation continues until the magnetic force is balanced by the electric force. The current is assumed to be uniformly distributed on the cross section of the strip and carried by electrons.

and M in strips 1 and 2, respectively. Then, for a given current I flowing through them in a given magnetic
field strength B, the correct statement(s) is(are)
