Question 1: The smallest division on the main scale of Vernier calipers is 0.1 cm. Ten divisions of the Vernier scale correspond to nine divisions of the main scale. The figure below on the left shows the reading of this caliper with no gap between its two jaws. The figure on the right shows the reading with a solid sphere held between the jaws. The correct diameter of the sphere is;

Solutions for JEE Advanced 2021 Paper 1 Physics


a. 3.07 cm
b. 3.11 cm
c. 3.15 cm
d. 3.17 cm

JEE Advanced 2021 Paper 1 Physics Solutions

Answer: (c)

Least count of Vernier calipers = 0.01 cm

Error in scale = 4 LC = 0.04 cm

Reading = 3.1 cm + 1 L.C = 3.1 cm + 0.01 = 3.11 cm

So correct diameter of the sphere = (3.11 + 0.04) cm = 3.15 cm

Question 2: An ideal gas undergoes a four step cycle as shown in the P – V diagram below. During this cycle, heat is absorbed by the gas in;

Solutions for JEE Advanced 2021 Paper 1 Physics


a. steps 1 and 2
b. steps 1 and 3
c. steps 1 and 4
d. steps 2 and 4

Answer: (c)

Solutions for JEE Advanced 2021 Physics Paper 1

Given P – V diagram

For process (1)

ΔQ1 = nCPΔT

As P = constant and V increases so T will increase

So ?Q1 > 0

For process (2)

ΔQ2 = nCVΔT

V = constant, P↓, So T↓

For process (3), ?Q3 = nCP?T < 0

For process (4), ?Q4 = nCP?T

As ?T > 0

So ?Q4 > 0

Answer:(b)

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{f_{1}}= \left ( \frac{3}{2}-1 \right )(\frac{2}{20})\end{array} \)
= 1/20

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{v_{1}}-\frac{1}{-10}=\frac{1}{20}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{v_{1}}=\frac{1}{20}-\frac{1}{10}=\frac{-1}{20}\end{array} \)

v1 = -20 cm

m1 = v/u1 = -20/-10 = 2

Again,

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{v_{2}}-\frac{1}{-30}=\frac{1}{-20}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{v_{2}}=-\frac{1}{30}-\frac{1}{20}=-\frac{5}{50}=-\frac{1}{12}\end{array} \)

m2 = -12/-30 = ?

m = m1 = m2 = 2 x (?) = 0.8

Question 4: A heavy nucleus Q of half-life 20 minutes undergoes alpha-decay with a probability of 60% and beta-decay with a probability of 40%. Initially, the number of Q nuclei is 1000. The number of alpha-decays of Q in the first one hour is;


a. 50
b. 75
c. 350
d. 525

Answer: (d)

t1/2 = 20 min

In 60 min, no. of half-life = 3

\(\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow N_{A}=\left [ 1000-1000/2^{3} \right ]\times 0.6\end{array} \)

= 100 x (?) x 0.6

= 525

Question Statement for Question Nos. 5 and 6

A projectile is thrown from a point O on the ground at an angle 45° from the vertical and with a speed of 5 √2 m/s. The projectile at the highest point of its trajectory splits into two equal parts. One part falls vertically down to the ground, 0.5 s after the splitting. The other part, t seconds after the splitting, falls to the ground at a distance x meters from the point O. The acceleration due to gravity g = 10 m/s2.

Question 5: The value of t is ________.


Answer: 0.5

H = u2sin2θ/2g

\(\begin{array}{l}= \frac{50}{2\times 10}\times \frac{1}{2}=\frac{5}{4}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}t= \sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}= \sqrt{\frac{2\times 5}{4\times 10}}= (1/2) s = 0.5 s\end{array} \)

Question 6: The value of x is ________.


Answer: 7.5

X = 3R/2 as Xcm = R

R = u2sin2θ/g

= 50/10 = 5

⇒X = 3R/2 = 15/2 = 7.5 m

In the circuit shown below, the switch S is connected to position P for a long time so that the charge on the capacitor becomes q1 µC. Then S is switched to position Q. After a long time, the charge on the capacitor is q2 µC.

JEE Advanced 2021 Physics Paper 1 with Answers

Question 7: The magnitude of q1 is


Answer: 01.33

With switch S at position P after long time potential difference across capacitor branch

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{\frac{2}{2}+\frac{1}{1}}{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{1}}=\frac{2\times 1}{3}=(4/3) v\end{array} \)

Charge on capacitor q1μC = (4/3) μC

⇒q1 = 4/3 = 1.33

Question 8: The magnitude of q2 is_____.


Answer: 00.67

With switch S at position Q after long time potential difference across the capacitor

= potential difference across a resistance of 1 ohm.

= (?) v

Charge on capacitor q2μC = (2/3) μC

⇒ 3(x-1)2 + 3y2 =x2+y2

⇒ (x-3)2 + y2 = (√3)2

Question 11: A horizontal force F is applied at the centre of mass of a cylindrical object of mass m and radius R, perpendicular to its axis as shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between the object and the ground is. The centre of mass of the object has an acceleration a. The acceleration due to gravity is g. Given that the object rolls without slipping, which of the following statement(s) is(are) correct?

Solved Paper of JEE Advanced 2021 Physics Paper 1


a. For the same F, the value of a does not depend on whether the cylinder is solid or hollow
b. For a solid cylinder, the maximum possible value of a is 2g
c. The magnitude of the frictional force on the object due to the ground is always mg
d. For a thin-walled hollow cylinder, a = F/2m

Answer: (b, d)

Solutions of JEE Advanced 2021 Physics Paper 1

For a solid cylinder,

\(\begin{array}{l}F\times R= \frac{3}{2}mR^{2}\times \frac{a}{R}\end{array} \)

⇒ a = 2F/3m

For hollow cylinder,

\(\begin{array}{l}F\times R= 2mR^{2}\times \frac{a}{R}\end{array} \)

⇒ a = F/3m

For solid cylinder

f = F – m x (2F/3m) = (F/3) ≤ μmg

⇒ F≤ 3μmg

Therefore,

A≤ (2/3m) x (3μmg)

⇒ amax = 2μg

Question 12: A wide slab consisting of two media of refractive indices n1 and n2 is placed in the air as shown in the figure. A ray of light is incident from medium n1 to n2 at an angle, where sin is slightly larger than 1/n1. Take the refractive index of air as 1. Which of the following statement(s) is(are) correct?

Solutions of JEE Advanced Physics Paper 1, 2021


a. The light ray enters air if n2 = n1
b. The light ray is finally reflected back into the medium of refractive index n1 if n2 < n1
c. The light ray is finally reflected back into the medium of refractive index n1 if n2 > n1
d. The light ray is reflected back into the medium of refractive index n1 if n2 = 1

Answer: (b, c, d)

Sin θ >1/ n1 … (i)

And n1 sinθ = 1 × sinr … (ii)

⇒ sinr > 1

⇒ refraction into air is not possible

b. There is an overlap between the wavelength ranges of Balmer and Paschen series
c. The wavelengths of Lyman series are given by (1 + 1/m20 where λ0 is the shortest wavelength of Lyman series and m is an integer
d. The wavelength ranges of the Lyman and Balmer series do not overlap

Answer: (a, d)

For Balmer series:

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{\lambda }= R\left [ \frac{1}{2^{2}}-\frac{1}{n^{2}} \right ]\end{array} \)

n = 3,4,5 —–

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{\lambda_{min} }= R\left [ \frac{1}{4}\right ]\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{\lambda _{max}}{\lambda _{min}}= \frac{9}{5}\end{array} \)

For Layman Series

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{\lambda }= R\left ( 1-\frac{1}{n^{2}} \right )\end{array} \)

n = 2,3,4 ——

1/λmin = R

\(\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow \lambda =\lambda _{0}n^{2}/(n^{2}-1)\end{array} \)
