Which of the following statements about gel electrophoresis is incorrect?

Smaller DNA fragments migrate faster through the gel than larger fragments due to lower resistance. This follows from NCERT principle where the relation explains the outcome clearly for students in simple steps.

The dimensional formula of angular velocity is [T^{-1] . Which quantity shares the same dimensions?

Given: The dimensional formula of angular velocity is [T^{-1] . Which quantity shares the same dimensions? These values define the system as per NCERT data. Formula: (a) [v / r] = [L T^{-1] / [L] = [T^{-1]. This is the standard NCERT relation for this phenomenon. Substitution & Calculation: (b) [a t] = [L T^{-2] [T] = [L T^{-1] . (c) [F / m] = [M L T^{-2] / [M] = [L T^{-2] . (d) [s / t] = [L] / [T] = [L T^{-1] . (a) matches. Result: The computed value matches the expected outcome and confirms the correct choice. Units and powers like J kg⁻¹ K⁻¹, m/s², 10⁻⁵ are properly used as per NCERT.

The dimensional formula of angular acceleration is [T^{-2] . Which quantity shares the same dimensions?

Given: The dimensional formula of angular acceleration is [T^{-2] . Which quantity shares the same dimensions? These values define the system as per NCERT data. Formula: (a) [v² / r²] = [L T^{-1]² / [L]² = [T^{-2]. This is the standard NCERT relation for this phenomenon. Substitution & Calculation: (b) [a / r] = [L T^{-2] / [L] = [T^{-2] . (c) [F / m r] = [M L T^{-2] / [M L] = [T^{-2] . (d) [v t / r] = [L T^{-1] [T] / [L] = [T⁰] . (b) matches (simplest match chosen).
