Solution:

${2 \cot ^{2} \theta-\frac{5}{\sin \theta}+4=0} \\ {\frac{2 \cos ^{2} \theta}{\sin ^{2} \theta}-\frac{5}{\sin \theta}+4=0} \\ {2 \cos ^{2} \theta-5 \sin \theta+4 \sin ^{2} \theta=0, \sin \theta \neq 0} \\ {2 \sin ^{2} \theta-5 \sin \theta+2=0} \\ {(2 \sin \theta-1)(\sin \theta-2)=0}$

${\sin \theta=\frac{1}{2}\text{ and }\sin \theta\neq2} \\ {\theta=\frac{\pi}{6}, \frac{5 \pi}{6}} \\ {\therefore \int \cos ^{2} 3 \theta \mathrm{d} \theta=\int_{\pi / 6}^{5 \pi / 6} \frac{1+\cos 6 \theta}{2} \mathrm{d} \theta}$

$=\frac{1}{2}\left[\theta+\frac{\sin 6 \theta}{6}\right]_{\pi / 6}^{5 \pi / 6}=\frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{5 \pi}{6}-\frac{\pi}{6}+\frac{1}{6}(0-0)\right]=\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{4 \pi}{6}=\frac{\pi}{3}$

Solution

${\frac{36!}{(36-r-1)!(r+1)!} \left(k^{2}-3\right)=\frac{^{35}C_{r}}{6}} \\ {\frac{36}{r+1} \times \frac{35!}{(35-r)!r!}\left(k^{2}-3\right)=\frac{^{35}C_r}{6}} \\ {\frac{36}{r+1} \times ^{35}C_r\left(k^{2}-3\right)=\frac{^{35}C_r}{6}} \\ {k^{2}-3=\frac{r+1}{6} \Rightarrow k^{2}=3+\frac{r+1}{6}}$

r should be less than or equal to 35

Hence r can be 5 and 35

For r=5 we get k=-2,-5

For r=35 we get k=-3,3

We get 4 ordered pair

$\Rightarrow 4 \alpha\left\{\left(\frac{e^{\omega x}}{\alpha}\right)_{-1}^{0}+\left .\frac{\mathrm{e}^{-\alpha \mathrm{x}}}{-\alpha} \right |^2_0\right \}$

$\\\Rightarrow 4 \alpha\left\{\left(\frac{1-e^{-\alpha}}{\alpha}\right)-\left(\frac{e^{-2 \alpha}-1}{\alpha}\right)\right\}=5 \\ \Rightarrow 4\left(2-\mathrm{e}^{-\alpha}-\mathrm{e}^{-2 \alpha}\right)=5;\quad \text { Put } \mathrm{e}^{-\alpha}=\mathrm{t}\\ \Rightarrow 4 t^{2}+4 t-3=0 \\ \Rightarrow e^{-\alpha}=\frac{1}{2}\Rightarrow \alpha=\ln2$

(3) f(x) is maxima at x = 1 and minima at x = –1
(4) f(x) is odd

Solution

${f(x)=a x^{5}+b x^{4}+c x^{3}} \\ {\lim _{x \rightarrow 0}\left(2+\frac{a x^{5}+b x^{4}+c x^{3}}{x^{3}}\right)=4}\\ {\Rightarrow 2+c=4 \Rightarrow c=2} \\ {f^{\prime}(x)=5 a x^{4}+4 b x^{3}+6 x^{2}} \\ {=x^{2}\left(5 a x^{2}+4 b x+6\right)}$

$\begin{array}{l}{f^{\prime}(1)=0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad 5 a+4 b+6=0} \\ {f^{\prime}(-1)=0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad 5 a-4 b+6=0}\end{array}$

Q16. From any point P on line x = 2y perpendicular is drawn on y = x. Let foot of perpendicular is Q. Find
the locus of midpoint of PQ.

Solution

$\\\text { slope of } P Q =\frac{x-a}{y-2a}=-1 \\\\ \Rightarrow x-a=-y+2a \\\\ \Rightarrow a=\frac{x+y}{3}$

Using midpoint
$\\2x=2a+b\\2y=a+b$

$a=2x-2y$

$\frac{\mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y}}{3}=2(\mathrm{x}-\mathrm{y})$

so locus is $6 x-6 y=x+y \quad \Rightarrow \quad 5 x=7 y$

Q17.  If mean and variance of 2, 3, 16, 20, 13, 7, x, y are 10 and 25 respectively then find xy ?

Solution

$\\\text{Mean}=\bar x=\frac{2+ 3+ 16+ 20+ 13+ 7 +x+ y}{8}=10\\\Rightarrow x+y=19\\\text{variance}\;\;\sigma^2=\frac{\sum (x_i)^2}{8}-(\bar x)^2\\\Rightarrow \frac{4 +9 +256+ 400 +169 +49 +x^2 +y^2}{8}-100=25\\\Rightarrow x^2+y^2=113\\(x+y)^2=x^2+y^2+2xy\\xy=124$

Q18. If the system of equation x + y + z = 6,  x + 2y + 3z = 10,  3x + 2y + $\lambda$z = $\mu$ has more than two solutions, then value of $(\mu-\lambda^2)$

Solution

x + y + z = 6 …….. (1)

x + 2y + 3z = 10 …….. (2)

3x + 2y + $\lambda$z = $\mu$…….. (3)

from (1) and (2)

if z = 0 $\Rightarrow$ x + y = 6 and  x + 2y = 10

$\Rightarrow$ y = 4, x = 2

(2, 4, 0)

if y = 0 $\Rightarrow$ x + z = 6 and  x + 3z = 10

$\Rightarrow$ z = 2 and x = 4

(4, 0, 2)

so, 3x + 2y + $\lambda$z = $\mu$ must pass through  (2, 4, 0) and  (4, 0, 2)

$\mu$ = 14

and 12 + 2$\lambda$ = $\mu$

$\lambda$ = 1

$(\mu-\lambda^2)$ = 13

Q19.  If f(x) is defined in $x\in\left ( -\frac{1}{3},\frac{1}{3} \right ),\;\;\;f(x)=\left\{\begin{matrix} \left ( \frac{1}{x}\log_e\left ( \frac{1+3x}{1-2x} \right ) \right ) &\;\;x\neq0 \\ k&\;\;x=0 \end{matrix}\right.$

Solution

$\\\lim_{x\rightarrow 0}f(x)=\lim_{x\rightarrow 0}\left ( \frac{1}{x}\log_e\left ( \frac{1+3x}{1-2x} \right ) \right )\\\Rightarrow \lim_{x\rightarrow 0}\left ( \frac{\ln(1+3x)}{x}-\frac{\ln(1-2x)}{x} \right )\\\Rightarrow \lim_{x\rightarrow 0}\left ( \frac{3\ln(1+3x)}{3x}+\frac{2\ln(1-2x)}{-2x} \right )=3+2=5$

Q20. If $\text{Q}\left ( 5/3,7/3,17/3 \right )$ is foot of perpendicular drawn from P(1, 0, 3) on a line L and if line L is passing through ($\alpha$, 7, 1), then value of $\alpha$ is

Solution

Since PQ is perpendicular to L, therefore

$\\\left ( 1-\frac{5}{3} \right )\left ( \alpha-\frac{5}{3} \right )+\left ( -\frac{7}{3} \right )\left ( 7-\frac{7}{3} \right )+\left ( 3-\frac{17}{3} \right )\left ( 1-\frac{17}{3} \right )=0\\\alpha=4$

Then find number of elements in the smallest subset of X which contain elements of both A and B

Solution

$\\\mathrm{n(A\cup B)=n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cap B)}\\\Rightarrow 25+7-3=29$

If $y\sqrt{1+-x^2}=k-x\sqrt{1-y^2}\;\;and \;\;y(1/2)=-1/4\;\;then\;\;\frac{dy}{dx}\;\;at\;\;x=1/2$

Solution

$\\x=1/2,\;\;y=-1/4\;\;\Rightarrow xy=-1/8\\y\cdot\frac{1\cdot(-2x)}{2\sqrt{1-x^2}}+y'\sqrt{1-x^2}=-\left [1\cdot\sqrt(1-y^2)+ \frac{x\cdot(-2y)}{2\cdot\sqrt{1-y^2}}y' \right ]\\-\frac{xy}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}+y'\sqrt{1-x^2}=-\sqrt{1-y^2}+\frac{xy\cdot y'}{\sqrt{1-y^2}}\\y'\left ( \sqrt{1-x^2}-\frac{xy}{\sqrt{1-y^2}} \right )=\frac{xy}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}-\sqrt{1-y^2}\\\text{put}\;x=1/2\;\;and\;y=-1/4\\we\;get\;y'=-\frac{\sqrt5}{2}$

then find the $\lambda$

Solution

a1 + a2 = 4 $\Rightarrow$a1 + a1r = 4 ………(i)

a3 + a4 = 16 $\Rightarrow$ a1r2 + a1r3 = 16 …….(ii)

$\begin{array}{l}{\frac{1}{r^{2}}+\frac{1}{4} \Rightarrow r^{2}=4} \\ {r=\pm 2} \\ {r=2, a_{1}(1+2)=4 \Rightarrow a_{1}=\frac{4}{3}}\end{array}$

$\begin{array}{l}{r=-2, \quad a_{1}(1-2)=4 \Rightarrow a_{1}=-4} \\ {\sum_{i=1}^{a} a_{i}=\frac{a_{1}\left(r^{9}-1\right)}{r-1}=\frac{(-4)\left((-2)^{9}-1\right)}{-2-1}=\frac{4}{3}(-513)=4 \lambda} \\ {\lambda=-171}\end{array}$

Q24.

$\text { If } z=\left(\frac{3+i \sin \theta}{4-i \cos \theta}\right) \text { is purely real and } \theta \in\left(\frac{\pi}{2}, \pi\right) \text { then } \arg (\sin \theta+i \cos \theta) \text { is }$

Solution

$z=\frac{(3+i \sin \theta)}{(4-i \cos \theta)} \times \frac{(4+i \cos \theta)}{(4+i \cos \theta)}$

as  z is purely real $\Rightarrow 3 \cos \theta+4 \sin \theta=0 \Rightarrow \tan \theta=-\frac{3}{4}$

$\\\arg (\sin \theta+i \cos \theta)=\pi+\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\right)=\pi+\tan ^{-1}\left(-\frac{4}{3}\right)\\=\pi-\tan ^{-1}\left(-\frac{4}{3}\right)$

Solution

$\begin{array}{l}{3 x+4 y=12 \sqrt{2}} \\ {\Rightarrow 4 y=-3 x+12 \sqrt{2}} \\ {\Rightarrow y=-\frac{3}{4} x+3 \sqrt{2}}\end{array}$

condition of tangency $c^{2}=a^{2} m^{2}+b^{2}$

$\begin{array}{l}{18=a^{2} \cdot \frac{9}{16}+9} \\ {a^{2} \cdot \frac{9}{16}=9} \\ {a^{2}=16} \\ {1 a=4} \\ {e=\sqrt{1-\frac{b^{2}}{a^{2}}}=\sqrt{1-\frac{9}{16}}=\frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}}\end{array}$

$\begin{array}{l}{\therefore \mathrm{ae}=\frac{\sqrt{7}}{4} \cdot 4=\sqrt{7}} \\ {\therefore \text { focus are } (\pm \sqrt{7}, 0)}\end{array}$

Q1.  What is the dimensional formula of $\left [ \frac{B^2}{2 \mu_0} \right ]$, where B is the magnetic field and $\mu_0$ is permeability of free space?

Solution

The energy density of Electromagnetic wave= $\frac{1}{2}\frac{B^2}{\mu_o}$

So, $\left [ \frac{B^2}{2 \mu_0} \right ]=\left [ \frac{Energy}{Volume} \right ]=\left [ \frac{ML^2T^{-2}}{L^3} \right ]=ML^{-1}T^{-2}$

Q2.  Moment of inertia of a colid disc as mass per unit area varies as A+Bx2, given the radius of the body is 'a':-

solution

$\sigma =A+Bx^2$

We take an elemental ring of mass dm at a distance x from the centre.

So Area of an elemental ring= $dA=2\pi xdx$

As moment of inertia for an elemental ring = $dI=dmx^2$

Total  moment of inertia= $I=\int dI=\int_{0}^{a}dmx^2=\int_{0}^{a}\sigma dAx^2=\int_{0}^{a}(A+Bx^2)x^2(2\pi xdx)\\ I=2\pi(\int_{0}^{a}Ax^3dx+\int_{0}^{a}Bx^5dx)=2\pi(A*\frac{a^4}{4}+B*\frac{a^6}{6})$

Q3.  A lift can hold a maximum of 10 people, each of mass 68 kg, a mass of lift is 920 kg, friction of 6000 N is acting on it. Lift is moving with a velocity of 3 m/s. If a lift is moving upward, calculate the power supplied by the motor to the lift, it is moving with its maximum intensity.

Solution

The elevator moves upward hence frictional force (F) opposes their motion downward.

so, net force act on elevator =mg+F

Fnet=( (10*68+920) x 10+6000)=22000 N

using power =Fnet x speed=22000*3=66000 Watt

Using 1 HP=746 Watts

So power=88.47 HP

Q4.  If weight of an object at pole is 196 N then weight at equator is [g = 10 m/s2 ; radius of earth = 6400 Km]

Solution

Given weight = 196N, therefore mass = 19.6Kg

At pole centripetal acceleration is zero ,there for w=mg

Due to rotation of the earth the effective weight is

$\\w=mg-m{\omega^2R}=mg-m(\frac{2\pi}{T})^2R\\w=196-19.6(\frac{2\pi}{24\times3600})^2\times6400\times10^3\\w=195.33N$

Q5. In a house 15 Bulbs of 45 W, 15 bulbs of 100 W, 15 bulbs of 10 W and Two heaters of 1 KW each is connected to 220 V Mains supply then find minimum fuse current

Option

1)5  2)20   3)25    4)1

Solution

$Total\ power=15\times45+15\times100+15\times10+2\times1000=4325W$

Power =VI

So current

$I=\frac{P}{V}=\frac{4325}{220}=19.65A$

Minimum fuse current should be 20A

Q6.  A block of mass 10kg is suspended from a string of length 4m. When pulled by a force F along horizontal from the midpoint. The upper half of the string makes 45° with vertical. The value of F is

options- 1)100N   2)90N      3)75N      4)70N

Solution

Equating the vertical force

$\frac{T}{\sqrt{2}}=mg=100N$

Equating the horizontal force

$\frac{T}{\sqrt{2}}=F=100N$

Q7. Cascaded Carnot engine is an arrangement in which the heat sink of one engine is a source for others. If the high temperature for one engine is T1, low temperature for other engines is T2 (Assume work done by both engine is same) Calculate the lower temperature of the first engine.

options:

a) $\frac{2T_1T_2}{T_1+T_2}$     b) $\frac{T_1+T_2}{2}$     c) 0   d) $\sqrt{T_1T_2}$

Solution

$\begin{array}{ll}{\text { Let, }}\\ {Q_{H}: \text { Heat input to 1st engine }} \\ {Q_{L}: \text { Heat rejected from 1st engine }} \\ {Q'_{H}: \text { Heat input to 2nd engine }}\\ {Q'_{L}: \text { Heat rejected from 2nd engine }}\end{array}$

Since the heat sink of one engine is a source for other

So $Q_L=Q'_H$

And Work done by 1st engine = work done by 2nd engine

$\begin{array}{l}{\mathrm{Q}_{\mathrm{H}}-\mathrm{Q}_{\mathrm{L}}=\mathrm{Q}_{\mathrm{L}}-\mathrm{Q}_{\mathrm{L}}^{'}} \\ {2 \mathrm{Q}_{\mathrm{L}}=\mathrm{Q}_{\mathrm{H}}+\mathrm{Q'}_{\mathrm{L}}}\end{array}$

Let the lower temperature of the first engine=T

And in Carnot engine

$\frac{Q_H}{Q_L}=\frac{T_1}{T} , \ and \ \frac{Q'_H}{Q'_L}= \frac{Q_L}{Q'_L}=\frac{T}{T_2}$

So

$\begin{array}{l}{2 \mathrm{Q}_{\mathrm{L}}=\mathrm{Q}_{\mathrm{H}}+\mathrm{Q}_{\mathrm{L}}^{\prime}} \\ {2=\frac{\mathrm{T}_{1}}{\mathrm{T}}+\frac{\mathrm{T}_{2}}{\mathrm{T}}} \\ {\mathrm{T}=\frac{\mathrm{T}_{1}+\mathrm{T}_{2}}{2}}\end{array}$

Q8. The activity of a substance changes from 700 s–1 to 500 s–1 in 30 minutes. Find its half-life in minutes

options-  a)66   b)50    c)62    d)56

Solution

Activity at any time is given as

$A=A_0e^{-\lambda t}\\ \Rightarrow \frac{A}{A_0}=e^{-\lambda t}\\ \Rightarrow ln( \frac{A_0}{A})=\lambda t$

For half-life $t=t_{\frac{1}{2}}, A=\frac{A_0}{2}$

so $\ln 2=\lambda t_{1 / 2}$

Now for $t=30 \ min \ , A_0=700 \ s^{-1}, \ A=500 \ s^{-1}$

$\ln \left[\frac{700}{500}\right]=\lambda(30 )$

from( (i) and (ii)

$\frac{\ln 2}{\ln (7 / 5)}=\frac{t_{1 / 2}}{(30 )}$

${t_{1 / 2}} =61.81 \ min$

Q9. In YDSE, the separation between slits is 0.15 mm, the distance between slits and screen is 1.5 m and the wavelength of light is 589 nm, then the fringe width is

Options- a)5.9 mm    b)1.9 mm   c)3.9 mm    d)2.3 mm

Solution

Given d=0.15 mm

D=1.5 m

$\lambda=589mm$

Fringe width

The fringe width is 5.9 mm

Q10. An ideal fluid is flowing in a pipe in streamline flow. A pipe has a maximum and minimum diameter of 6.4 cm and 4.8 cm respectively. Find out the ratio of minimum to maximum velocity.

Solution

By equation of continuity

$A_1v_1=A_2v_2$

If the area is large velocity is minimum

Therefor

$\frac{v_{max}}{v_{min}}=(\frac{4.8}{6.4})^2=\frac{9}{16}$

Q11. There is an electric circuit as shown in the figure. Find the potential difference between points a and b.

Solution

A diode is forward biased

So the circuit will be as follows

The potential difference between a and b is

$V_{ab}=\frac{30}{15\times10^{3}}\times5\times10^3V=10V$

Q12. A particle of mass m and positive charge q is projected with a speed of v0 in the y-direction in the presence of electric and magnetic fields are in the x-direction. Find the instant of time at which the speed of particle becomes double the initial speed.

Options-

a) $\frac{mv_0\sqrt{3}}{qE}$    b)$\frac{mv_0\sqrt{2}}{qE}$     c)$\frac{mv_0}{qE}$    d) $\frac{mv_0}{2qE}$

Solution

Initially $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}}=\mathrm{v}_{0} \hat{\mathrm{j}}$

As both electric and magnetic field is in the x-direction

And initial velocity is perpendicular to both electric and magnetic fields.

So particle will move in a helical motion

and magnitude of velocity does not change in y–z plane

and Speed will be increased due to electric filed only i.e in the x-direction

and finally, the speed of the particle becomes double the initial speed.

i.e $\left(2 \mathrm{v}_{0}\right)^{2}=\mathrm{v}_{0}^{2}+\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{x}}^{2} \quad ; \quad \mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{x}}=\sqrt{3} \mathrm{v}_{0}$

And in x-direction $F_x=qE\Rightarrow a_x=\frac{qE}{m}$

So $v_x=\sqrt{3} \mathrm{v}_{0}=0+\frac{\mathrm{qE}}{\mathrm{m}} \mathrm{t} ; \quad \mathrm{t}=\frac{\mathrm{mv}_{0} \sqrt{3}}{\mathrm{qE}}$

Q13.  In an adiabatic process, the volume is doubled then find the ratio of final average relaxation time and initial relaxation time

Solution

relaxation time=$\tau \ \ \alpha \ \ \frac{V}{\sqrt{T}}$

and using $PV^{\gamma }=Const$ gives $\mathrm{T} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{V}^{\gamma-1}}$

$\begin{array}{l}{\tau \propto V^{1+\frac{\gamma-1}{2}}} \\ {\tau \propto V^{\frac{1+\gamma}{2}}}\end{array}$

$\begin{array}{l}{\frac{\tau_{\mathrm{f}}}{\tau_{\mathrm{i}}}=\left(\frac{2 \mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{V}}\right)^{\frac{1+\gamma}{2}}} \\\\{\frac{\tau_{\mathrm{f}}}{\tau_{\mathrm{i}}}=(2)^{\frac{1+\gamma}{2}}}\end{array}$

Q14. Two sources of sound moving with the same speed v and emitting a frequency of 1400 Hz are moving such that one source s1 is moving towards the observer and s2 is moving away from an observer. If the observer hears a beat frequency of 2 Hz. Then find the speed of the source. Given Vsound >> VSource and Vsound = 350 m/s.

Solution

given f0=1400Hz

$f_1=f_0\left [ \frac{v_{sound}}{v_{sound}-v_{source}} \right ]$

$f_2=f_0\left [ \frac{v_{sound}}{v_{sound}+v_{source}} \right ]$

Now$beat frequency=f_1-f_2$

$\Rightarrow 2=f_1-f_2\Rightarrow v_{source}=\frac{1}{4}m/s$

Q15.  An electron & a photon have the same energy E. Find the ratio of de Broglie wavelength of an electron to the wavelength of the photon. Given the mass of an electron is m & speed of light is c.

Solution

$\lambda_{\mathrm{d}} for electron =\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\sqrt{2 \mathrm{mE}}} \\ \lambda for photon =\frac{\mathrm{hC}}{\mathrm{E}} \\ Ratio =\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\sqrt{2 \mathrm{mE}}}\times \frac{\mathrm{E}}{\mathrm{hC}}=\frac{1}{\mathrm{C}} \sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{E}}{2 \mathrm{m}}}$

Q16.  A ring is rotated about a diametric axis in a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the ring. If initially, the plane of the ring is perpendicular to the magnetic field. Find the instant of time at which EMF will be maximum & minimum respectively:

Solution

\begin{aligned} \therefore \quad \omega &=\frac{2 \pi}{\mathrm{T}}=\frac{\pi}{5} \end{aligned}

We know that   $\phi=BACos\theta=BASin\omega t$

And $\varepsilon =-\frac{d\phi}{dt}=BASin\omega t$

$\text { When } \omega \mathrm{t}=\frac{\pi}{2}$

$\begin{array}{ll}{\because} & {\phi \text { will be minimum. }} \\ {\therefore \quad} & {\varepsilon \text { will be maximum }} \\ {} & {t=\frac{\frac{\pi}{2}}{\frac{\pi}{5}}=2.5 \mathrm{sec}}\end{array}$

$\begin{array}{ll}{\text { When } \omega t} & {=\pi} \\ {\ddots} & {\phi \text { will have maximum. }} \\ {\because} & {\varepsilon \text { will be minimum. }} \\ {} & {t=\frac{\pi}{\pi / 5}=5 \text { sec. }}\end{array}$

Q17.  The electric field in space is given by $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}(\mathrm{t})=\mathrm{E}_{0} \frac{(\hat{\mathrm{i}}+\hat{\mathrm{j}})}{\sqrt{2}} \cos (\omega \mathrm{t}+\mathrm{Kz})$ . A positively charged particle at $(0,0, \pi / \mathrm{K})$ is given velocity $\mathrm{v}_{0} \hat{\mathrm{k}} at \mathrm{t}=0$ . The direction of force acting on a particle is:-

Solution

Force due to electric field is in direction $-\frac{(\hat{i}+\hat{j})}{\sqrt{2}}$
because at t=0, $E=-\frac{(\hat{i}+\hat{j})}{\sqrt{2}} E_{0}$
Force due to the magnetic field is in direction $q(\vec{v} \times \vec{B}) and \vec{v} \| \hat{k}$
therefore, it is parallel to $\vec{E}$
therefore the net force is antiparallel to
$\frac{(\hat{i}+\hat{j})}{\sqrt{2}}$

Q18.  The focal length of the convex lens in air is $16 \mathrm{cm}{ (\mu_{glass} }=1.5)$. Now the lens is submerged in a liquid of refractive index 1.42. Find the ratio of focal length in medium to focal length in the air:-

Solution

$\frac{1}{\mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{a}}}=\left(\frac{\mu_{\mathrm{g}}}{\mu_{\mathrm{a}}}-1\right)\left(\frac{1}{\mathrm{R}_{1}}-\frac{1}{\mathrm{R}_{2}}\right) \\ \frac{1}{\mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{m}}}=\left(\frac{\mu_{\mathrm{g}}}{\mu_{\mathrm{m}}}-1\right)\left(\frac{1}{\mathrm{R}_{1}}-\frac{1}{\mathrm{R}_{2}}\right)$

$\Rightarrow \frac{f_{a}}{f_{m}}=\frac{\left(\frac{\mu_{g}}{\mu_{m}}-1\right)}{\left(\frac{\mu_{g}}{\mu_{a}}-1\right)}=\frac{\left(\frac{1.50}{1.42}-1\right)}{\left[\frac{1.50}{1}-1\right]}=\frac{0.08}{(1.92)(0.5)}$

$\frac{\mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{m}}}{\mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{a}}}=\frac{(1.42)(0.5)}{0.08}=8.875 \approx 9$

Q19. The hysteresis curve for the material is shown in the figure. Then for the material retentivity, coercivity and saturation magnetization respectively will be -

(1) 50 A/m, 1T, 1.5 T   (3) 1 T, 50 A/m, 1.5 T

(2) 1.5 T, 50 A/m, 1T   (4) 50 A/m, 1.5 T, 1 T

Solution

So, from the figure, we can see that the-

x = retentivity, y = coercivity, z = saturation magnetization

So, by matching with the diagram from the question and solution, option 3 is correct.

Q20.  An inductor of inductance 10 mH and a resistance of 5$\Omega$ is connected to a battery of 20 V at t = 0. Find the ratio of current in the circuit at t = $\infty$ to current at t = 40 sec.

(1) 1.06  (2) 1.48

(3) 1.15  (4) 0.84

Solution

As we know that the -

$i = i_o(1-e^{\frac{-t}{L/R}})$

So, from the question, we can write that -

$i = \frac{20}{5}(1-e^{\frac{-t}{0.01/5}})$

$= i = 4(1-e^{{-500t}})$

By putting t = $\infty$

We get, $i_o = 4$

Again at t = 40 sec

$i_{40}= 4(1-\frac{1}{(e^2)^{10000}})$

$= 4(1-\frac{1}{(7.29)^{10000}})$

So,

$\frac{i_{\infty}}{i_{40}} \approx 1 \ \ \ \ But \ slightly \ greater \ than \ one$

So option 1 is much closer. So option 1 will be correct.

Q21.  A solid cube of side 'a' is shown in the figure. Find the maximum value of  $100\frac{b}{a}$ for which the block does not topple before sliding

solution

For no toppling

$F\left(\frac{a}{2}+b\right) \leq m g \frac{a}{2}$

Using $F=\mu mg$

$\mu \frac{a}{2}+\mu b \leq \frac{a}{2}$

using $\mu=0.4$

$\begin{array}{l}{0.2 a+0.4 b \leq 0.5 a} \\ {0.4 b \leq 0.3 a} \\ {b \leq \frac{3 a}{4}}\end{array}$

i.e ${b \leq 0.75a$ but this is not possible as b can maximum be equal to 0.5a

So $\therefore \quad\left(100 \frac{\mathrm{b}}{\mathrm{a}}\right)_{\max }=50.00$

Q22. Magnitude of resultant of two vectors  $\vec{P}$ and $\vec{Q}$  is equal to magnitude of $\vec{P}$ . Find the angle between $\vec{Q}$ and resultant of  $2 \vec{P}$  and $\vec{Q}$  .

Solution

As

$|\vec{P}+\vec{Q}|=|\vec{P}|\\\Rightarrow P^2+Q^2+2PQcos\theta =P^2\\ \Rightarrow Q+2Pcos\theta =0...(1)$

Now Vector P is doubled but vector Q is the same so the angle between $2\vec{P} \ and \ \vec{Q}$ will be also $\theta$

And If resultant of $2\vec{P} \ and \ \vec{Q}$ is $\vec{R}$

Then from the figure angle between $\vec{R} \ and \ \vec{Q}$ is $\alpha$

and $tan \alpha =\frac{2Psin\theta }{2Pcos\theta }\\ From \ equation \ (1)\\ we\ get \ tan \alpha =\infty\Rightarrow \alpha =90^0$

Q23.  When m gram of steam at 100°C is mixed with 200 gm of ice at 0°C. it results in the water at 40°C. Find the value of m in gram. (given : Latent heat of fusion (Lf) = 80 cal/gm, Latent heat of vaporisation (Lv) = 540 cal/gm., specific heat of water (Cw)= 1 cal/gm/°C)

Solution

$\begin{array}{l}{\mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{ice}} \mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{f}}+\mathrm{m}_{\mathrm{ce}}(40-0) \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{w}}=\mathrm{m}_{\mathrm{steam}} \mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{v}}+\mathrm{m}_{\mathrm{steam}}(100-40) \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{w}}} \\ {\Rightarrow 200[80+40(1)]=\mathrm{m}[540+60(1)]} \\ {\Rightarrow 200(120)=\mathrm{m}(600)} \\ {\mathrm{m}=40 \mathrm{gm}}\end{array}$

$\\E\propto 560\\\frac{E\times10}{10+r}\propto500\\\frac{10+r}{10}=\frac{56}{50}\\\Rightarrow r=1.2=\frac{12}{10}\\\Rightarrow n=10$

Q25.  A capacitor of 60 pF charged to 20 volt. Now battery is removed and then this capacitor is connected to another identical uncharged capacitor. Find heat loss in nJ

solution

$\\Heat \ loss =\frac{1}{2}cv^2-c\frac{v^2}{4}=c\frac{v^2}{4}\\=60\times10^{-12}\times100=6nJ$

Therefor n =6
