  • Question 1
    3 / -1

    The escape velocity of an atmospheric particle which is \(1000 \mathrm{km}\) above the earth's surface, is (radius of the earth is \(6400 \mathrm{km}\) and \(\left.\mathrm{g}=9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\right)\)

    Solution

    \(V_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2 G M}{R+h}}\)

    \(V_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2 G M}{R}}\)

    \(\frac{V_{e}}{V_{e}}=\frac{\sqrt{R+h}}{\sqrt{R}}\)

    \(=\sqrt{\frac{6400+1000}{6400}=\frac{7400}{6400}=\sqrt{1.15}=1.072}\)

    \(v^{\prime}=\frac{11.27}{1.067}=\frac{11.2}{115}=\frac{10}{10}\)

    \(9.73=10.46 \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{s}\)

    \(=10 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}\)

    \(V^{1}=10^{4} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}\)

    Hence, The correct answer is C.

  • Question 2
    3 / -1

    The network shown in figure is a part of the circuit. (The battery has negligible resistance.)At a certain instant the current I = 5 A and is decreasing at a rate of 10 ³ As⁻¹.What is the potential difference between points B and A?choose the correct option from the given options.

    Solution

    Resistance, \(R=1 \Omega,\) emf \(, \xi=15 V\) and inductance \(, L=5 m H, d i / d t=10^{3}\) \(s o, V_{A}-I R+\hat{\epsilon}-L \frac{d i}{d t}-V_{B}=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow V_{A}-5 \times 1+15-5 \times 10^{-9} \times 10^{9}-V_{B}=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow V_{A}-V_{B}-5+15-5=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow V_{A}-V_{B}+15=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow V_{B}-V_{A}=15 V\)

    Hence option (c) is correct.

  • Question 3
    3 / -1

    Two sources of sound, \(S_{1}\) and \(S_{2}\), emitting waves of equal wavelength \(20.0 \mathrm{cm},\) are placed with a separation of \(20.0 \mathrm{cm}\) between them. \(\mathrm{A}\) detector can be moved on a line parallel to \(S_{1} S_{2}\) and at a distance of \(20.0 \mathrm{cm}\) from it. Initially, the detector is equidistant from the two sources. Assuming that the waves emitted by the sources are in phase, find the minimum distance through which the detector should be shifted to detect a minimum of sound.

    Solution

    According to the data \(\lambda=20 \mathrm{cm}, S_{1} S_{2}=20 \mathrm{cm}, B D=20 \mathrm{cm}\)

    Let the detector is shifted to left for a distance \(x\) for hearing the minimum sound So path difference \(A I=B C-A B\) \(=\sqrt{(20)^{2}+(10+x)^{2}}-\sqrt{(20)^{2}+(10-x)^{2}}\)

    So the minimum distance hearing for minimum \(A I=\frac{(2 n+1) \lambda}{2}=\frac{\lambda}{2}=\frac{20}{2}=10 \mathrm{cm}\)

    Substitute the value in equation of path difference:

    \(\Rightarrow \sqrt{(20)^{2}+(10+x)^{2}}-\sqrt{(20)^{2}+(10+x)^{2}}=10\)

    solving we get \(x=12.0 \mathrm{cm}\)

    Hence, The correct answer is C.

  • Question 4
    3 / -1

    A boat capable of a speed v in still water wants to cross a river of width d. The speed of the water current increases linearly from zero at either bank to a maximum of u at the middle of the river. When the boat is rowed at right angles to the bank, its downstream drift is

    Solution

    Let us choose a coordinate system with its origin as the starting point of the boat, the \(+x\) -axis points downstream and \(+y\) -axis points at right angles to the bank of the river

    X-motion of the boat is due to the water current velocity vcurrent while the \(y\) -motion is caused solely by the velocity \(v\) of the boat. The above two motions are independent of each other and can be treated separately. Assuming that the boat starts at time \(t=0,\) the \(y\) coordinate after a time \(t\) is \(y=v t \ldots\) (i) The speed of water current is a function of \(y\) and is given by \(v_{\text {current }}=\frac{2 u v}{d}\) for \(y<\frac{d}{2} \ldots \ldots . .\) (ii)

    Substituting for y from equation (i) By symmetry, its value at the middle of the river is \(D / 2\). The time required to reach the middle of the river is \(t=\frac{\frac{d}{2}}{v}=\frac{d}{2 v}\) Separating the variable in equation (iii) and intergrating \(\int_{0}^{\frac{D}{2}} d x=\frac{2 u v}{d} \int_{0}^{\frac{d}{2 y}} t d t\)

    \(\frac{D}{2}=\frac{2 u v}{d}\left[\frac{\left(\frac{d}{2 v}\right)^{2}}{2}\right]=\frac{u d}{4 v}\)

    Hence, The correct answer is D.

  • Question 5
    3 / -1

    A single velocity time graph can be drawn for-

    Solution

    One two-dimensional(with x-axis and y-axis) velocity-time graph can be drawn for motion of particle in one-dimension only.

    Hence option A is the correct answer.

  • Question 6
    3 / -1

    A square metal wire loop of side \(10 \mathrm{cm}\) and resistance \(1 \Omega\) is moved with constant velocity \(v_{0}\) in a uniform magnetic field of induction \(B=2 W b m^{-2},\) as shown in Figure. The magnetic field lines are perpendicular to the plane of loop and directed into the paper. The loop is connected to the network of resistances, each of value \(3 \Omega\). The resistance of the lead wire is negligible. The speed of the loop so as to have a steady current of \(1 \mathrm{m} A\) in the loop is

    Solution

    Effective resistance of circuit is \(4 \Omega\) \(I=\frac{E}{R}=\frac{B l v}{R}\) or \(v=\frac{I R}{B l}\)

    or \(v=\frac{1 \times 0.001 \times 4}{2 \times 10 \times 0.01} \mathrm{ms}^{-1}=0.02 \mathrm{ms}^{-1}=2 \mathrm{cms}^{-1}\)

    Hence, The correct answer is B.

  • Question 7
    3 / -1

    Four identical hollow cylindrical columns of mild steel support a big structure of mass 50,000 kg. The inner and outer radii of each column are 30 and 60cm respectively. Assuming the load distribution to be uniform, calculate the compressional strain of each column.

    Solution

    Mass of the big structure, \(\mathrm{M}=50,000 \mathrm{kg}\) Inner radius of the column, \(r=30 \mathrm{cm}=0.3 \mathrm{m}\) Outer radius of the column, \(\mathrm{R}=60 \mathrm{cm}=0.6 \mathrm{m}\) Young's modulus of steel, \(Y=2 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{Pa}\) Total force exerted, \(F=M g=50000 \times 9.8 N\) Stress = Force exerted on a single column \(=50000 \times \frac{9.8}{4}=122500 N\)

    Young's modulus, \(Y=\frac{\text { Stresss }}{\text { Strain }}\) Strain \(=\frac{(F / A)}{Y}\)

    Where, Area, \(A=\pi\left(R^{2}-r^{2}\right)=\pi\left((0.6)^{2}-(0.3)^{2}\right)\)

    Strain \(=122500 /\left[\pi\left((0.6)^{2}-(0.3)^{2}\right) \times 2 \times 10^{11}\right]=7.22 \times 10^{-7}\)

    Hence, the compressional strain of each column is \(7.22 \times 10^{-7}\)

    Hence, The correct answer is A.

  • Question 8
    3 / -1

    Directions: The following question has four choices, out of which ONE or MORE can be correct.

    A particle of charge `q` and mass `m` moves rectilinearly under the action of an electric field E= α - βX . Here, and are positive constants, and `x` is the distance from the point where the particle was initially at rest.

    Chose the correct option(s).

    Solution

    As we have, \(m a=q E\) so acceleration of the particle is \(a=\frac{q(\alpha-\beta x)}{m}\)

    At mean position \(a=0\) \(\alpha-\beta x=0 \Rightarrow x=\frac{\alpha}{\beta}\)

    Now \(a=v \frac{d v}{d x}=\frac{q(\alpha-\beta x)}{m}\)

    \(\int_{0}^{v} v d v=\frac{q}{m} \int_{0}^{x}(\alpha-\beta x) d x\)

    \(\frac{v^{2}}{2}=\frac{q}{m}\left(\alpha \alpha-\frac{\beta x^{2}}{2}\right) \Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{2 q x}{m}\left(\alpha-\frac{\beta x}{2}\right)}\)

    Hence velocity of the particle is zero at \(x=0\) and \(x=\frac{2 \alpha}{\beta}\)

    We can conclude that particle oscillated between these two limits and have amplitude \(A=\frac{\alpha}{\beta}\)

    Acceleration of the particle is maximum at \(x=0\) and \(x=\frac{2 \alpha}{\beta}, a_{\max }=\frac{q \alpha}{m}\)

    Hence options D is the correct answer.

  • Question 9
    3 / -1

    In nuclear reaction, energy released per fission is 200 MeV. When uranium 235 is used as nuclear fuel in a reactor having a power level of 1 MW, the amount of fuel needed in 30 days will be

    Solution

    Energy produced by the reactor in 1 day \(=10^{6} \times 86400 J\) Energy released per fission \(=200 \times 10^{6} \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{J}\)

    No. of fissions required (i.e..) no. of \(235 U\) atoms fissioned in a month \(=\frac{10^{6} \times 86,400 \times 30}{200 \times 10^{6} \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}}\)

    Mass of \(235 U\) having the requisite no. of atoms \(=\left(\frac{235}{6.02 \times 10^{25}}\right)\) \(\left(\frac{10^{6} \times 86400 \times 30}{200 \times 10^{6} \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}}\right)\)

    \(\left[\because\right.\) no. of atoms in \(1 \mathrm{kg}\) of \(\left.U^{235}=\frac{6.02 \times 10^{26}}{235}\right]\)

    \(=\frac{235 \times 864 \times 3 \times 10^{9}}{6.02 \times 3.2 \times 10^{15}}\)

    \(=32 g\)

    Hence, The correct answer is D.

  • Question 10
    3 / -1

    The following question has four choices, out of which ONE or MORE can be correct.

    Which of the following statements is/are correct?

    Solution

    If field due to a point charge varies are \(r^{-25}\), then \(E=c r^{-25}\); where \(c\) is a constant. Using Gauss's law, we have \(\oint \vec{E} \cdot \overrightarrow{d s}=c r^{-25} \times 4 \pi r^{2}=4 c \pi r^{-23} \neq \frac{q \text { enclosed }}{e_{0}}\)

    Hence, Gauss law is invalid and option 1 is wrong.

    Electric field due to a dipole is not symmetric; hence, a Gaussian surface cannot be used to find the electric field due to a dipole using Gauss law. Hence, option 2 is wrong.

    Electric fleid on the line joining the charges is opposite in direction if they are of the same sign only. Hence, option 3 is correct.

  • Question 11
    3 / -1

    Directions: The following question has four choices, out of which ONE or MORE can be correct.

    In the given circuit, the

    Solution

    \(V_{D}=V_{E}=0 V\)

    \(V_{B}-V_{D}=2 V \Rightarrow V_{B}=2 V\)

    \(V_{C}-V_{B}=10 V \Rightarrow V_{C}=12 V\)

    \(V_{C}-V_{A}=6 V \Rightarrow V_{A}=6 V\)

    \(V_{A}-V_{B}=6-2=4 V\)

    Current through the \(3 \Omega\) resistance \(=\frac{V_{C}-V_{D}}{3}=\frac{12}{3}=4 A\)

    Hence option B is the correct answer.

  • Question 12
    3 / -1

    A reversible heat engine converts one-fourth of heat input into work. When the temperature of the sink is reduced by \(150^{\circ}\), its efficiency is doubled. The temperature of the source is:

    Solution

    Efficiency of heat engine, \(\eta_{1}=\frac{T_{2}-T_{1}}{T_{2}}=\frac{1}{6}\)

    Where, \(T_{2}\) is source temperature and \(T_{1}\) is sink temperature. When the temperature of sink is reduced by \(150^{0}\), the efficiency is doubled. So, new efficiency is \(2 \eta_{1}=\frac{T_{2}-\left(T_{1}-150\right)}{T_{2}}\) \(2 \eta_{1}=\frac{T_{2}-T_{1}}{T_{2}}+\frac{150}{T_{2}}\)

    \(2 \eta_{1}=\eta_{1}+\frac{150}{T_{2}}\)

    \(2 \times \frac{1}{6}=\frac{150}{T_{2}}\)

    \(\frac{1}{3}=\frac{150}{T_{2}}\)

    \(\frac{1}{3}=\frac{150}{T_{2}}\)

    \(T_{2}=450^{\circ}\)

    Hence, The correct answer is A.

  • Question 13
    3 / -1

    The walls of a closed cubical box of edge \(50 \mathrm{cm}\) are made of a material of thickness \(1 \mathrm{mm}\) and coefficient of thermal conductivity \(4 \times\) \(10^{-4} \mathrm{cal} / \mathrm{s} / \mathrm{cm} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C} .\) The interior of the box is maintained at \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) above the outside temperature by a heater placed inside the box and connected across \(400 \mathrm{V}\) d.c. The resistance of the heater is

    Solution

    The rate of heat transmitted through the walls of the closed cubical box, \(H=\frac{l}{t}\)

    \(=\frac{k A\left(\theta_{2}-\theta_{1}\right)}{d}\)

    \(=\frac{4 \times 10^{-4} \times 6 \times 50 \times 50 \times 100}{0.1}\)

    \(=6000 \mathrm{cals}\)

    To maintain constant temperature difference between outside and inside the box, this heat escaped must be produced by the electric current in the heater. Let \(R\) be the resistance of the coil. The heat produced per second is \(H=\frac{Q}{t}=\frac{V^{2}}{R} J u l e=\frac{V^{2}}{J R} c a l=\frac{V^{2}}{4.2 R} c a l\)

    \(\therefore \frac{V^{2}}{4.2 R}=6000\)

    \(R=\frac{400 \times 400}{4.2 \times 6000}\)

    \(R=6.35 \Omega\)

    Hence, The correct answer is C.

  • Question 14
    3 / -1

    A nonconducting insulating ring of mass \(\mathrm{m}\) and radius \(\mathrm{R}\), having charge Q uniformly distributed over its circumference is hanging by an insulated thread with the help of a small smooth ring (not rigidly fixed with bigger ring). A time varying magnetic field \(\mathrm{B}=\mathrm{B}_{0}\) sinwt is switched on at \(t=0\) and the ring is released at the same time. The induced EMF in loop at time \(t=2 \pi / \omega\) is:

    Solution

    \(\phi=\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B}\)

    \(V=-\frac{d \phi}{d t}=-A B_{0} \omega \cos \omega t=\pi R^{2} B_{0} \omega \cos (\omega t)\)

    \(a t t=2 \pi / \omega, V=\pi R^{2} B_{0} \omega\)

    Hence, The correct answer is C.

  • Question 15
    3 / -1

    A long cylindrical conductor of cross-sectional area A is made of a material whose resistivity depends only on the distance r from the axis of the conductor as \(p=\frac{\alpha}{r^{2}}\) where \(\alpha\) is a constant. The resistance per unit length of such a conductor is

    Solution

    Let us consider a cylindrical conductor of length \(1 \mathrm{m}\) and radius a. Let the conductor be made up of a large number of thin ring shaped conductors each of length \(1 \mathrm{m}\) Let us consider one such element of the conductor of radius \(r\) and thickness dr. The resistance of the conductor \(d R=\frac{P \times 1}{2 \pi r d^{2}}\) \(\therefore \frac{1}{d R}=\frac{2 \pi r d r}{\frac{a}{r^{2}}}=\frac{2 \pi}{\alpha} r^{3} d r\)

    All ring shaped conductors are in parallel. Hence reciprocal of net resistance, \(\frac{1}{R}=\varepsilon \frac{1}{d R}=\int_{0}^{a} \frac{2 \pi}{\alpha} r^{3} d r\)

    \(=\frac{2 \pi}{\alpha} \int_{0}^{a} r^{3} d r\)

    \(\frac{1}{R}=\frac{2 \pi}{\alpha}\left[\frac{r^{4}}{4}\right]_{0}^{a}=\frac{2 \pi}{a}, \frac{a^{4}}{4}\)

    \(R=\frac{2 \alpha}{\pi a^{4}}\)

    But \(A=\pi a^{2} \Rightarrow a^{2}=\frac{A}{\pi}\)

    \(\therefore R=\frac{2 \alpha}{\pi} \cdot \frac{1}{\left(\frac{\Lambda}{\pi}\right)^{2}}=\frac{2 \pi \alpha}{A^{2}}\)

    Hence, The correct answer is B.
