1. The density of a material in SI units is 128 kg m-3. In certain units in which the unit of length is 25 cm and the unit of mass is 50 g, the numerical value of density of the material is :
a. 40
b. 410
c. 640
d. 16
Density = mass/volume
δ = M/V = M/L3
n1u1 = n2u2
n1 = 128
128[M1L1-3] = n2[M2L2-3]
n2 = 128 [M1L1-3]/ [M2L2-3]
m = 50/1000 kg
l = 25/100 m
n2 = 128[M1/M2][L2/L1]3
=
\(\begin{array}{l}128\times \frac{1}{\frac{50}{1000}}\times\left ( \frac{\frac{25}{100}}{1} \right ) ^{3}\end{array} \)
= 128× 20×1/64

a. 1:2
b. 1:16
c. 1:8
d. 1:4
R = u2sin 2θ/g
For gun A, (Rmax)A = uA2/g
For gun B, (Rmax)B = uB2/g
(Area)A/(Area)B = (Rmax)A2/(Rmax)B2
= (uA2/ uB2)2
= (uA/ uB)4
= (1/2)4
= 1/16
Answer: b

4. A piece of wood of mass 0.03 kg is dropped from the top of a building 100 m high. At the same time, a bullet of mass 0.02 kg is fired vertically upward with a velocity of 100 m/s from the ground the bullet gets embedded in the wooded piece after striking. Then the maximum height to which the combined system reaches above the building before falling below is: (take g = 10ms-2).
a. 40
b. 30
c. 20
d. 10
Time taken by the particles to collide, t = d/Vrel = 100/100 = 1 sec
Before collision, speed of wood = gt = 10m/s
Before collision, speed of bullet = v-gt = 100-10 = 90 m/s
Conservation of linear momentum just before and after the collision = (0.02) (1v) + (0.02) (9v)
= (0.05)v
150 = 5v
v = 30 m/s
Max. height reached by body h = v2/2g
h = (30×30)/2×10 = 45 m
S = ut+(1/2)at2 = 0+(1/2)10 = 5m
So height above the tower = 45-5 = 40 m
Answer: a
5. A block of mass m is kept on a platform which starts from rest with constant acceleration g/2 upward, as shown in fig. Work done by normal reaction on block in time t is :
a. 3mg2t2/8
b. -mg2t2/8
c. mg2t2/8
d. 0
S = ut+(1/2)at2
ut = 0
a = g/2
S = (1/4)gt2
N-mg = mg/2
N = 3mg/2
Work done W = FS = NS
= (3mg/2)(gt2/4)
= 3mg2t2/8
Answer: a

a. 2F/3mR
b. 3F/2mR
c. F/3mR
d. F/2mR
Considering pure rolling, acm = Rα
FR = (mR2 +(1/2) mR2 ) α
= (3/2)mR2α
α = 2F/3mR
Answer: a

a. μFR/6
b. μFR/3
c. μFR/2
d. 2μFR/3
Force per unit length = F/πR2)2πxdx
Torque = F×r
=
\(\begin{array}{l}\int_{0}^{R}\mu (\frac{F}{\pi R^{2}}2\pi x\; dx)x\end{array} \)
=
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{2\mu F}{ R^{2}}\int_{0}^{R} x^{2}\; dx\end{array} \)
=
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{2\mu F}{ R^{2}}\frac{R^{3}}{3}\end{array} \)
=
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{2\mu FR}{ 3}\end{array} \)

8. A satellite is moving with a constant speed v in circular orbit around the earth. An object of mass m is ejected from the satellite such that it just escapes from the gravitational pull of the earth. At the time of ejection, the kinetic energy of the object is
a. (1/2)mv2
b. mv2
c. (3/2)mv2
d. 2mv2
Orbital velocity = v
Escape velocity = Ve
v = √(GM/R)
g = GM/R2
gR2 = GM
v = √gR
Ve = √(2gR)
= √2 v
Kinetic energy = (1/2)mVe2
= (1/2) m(√2v)2
= mv2
Answer: b
9. Water flows into a large tank with flat bottom at the rate of 10−4m3s−1. Water is also leaking out of a hole of area 1 cm2 at its bottom. If the height of the water in the tank remains steady, then this height is
a. 5.1 cm
b. 4 cm
c. 2.9 cm
d. 1.7 cm
Water inflow rate = water outflow rate
Water inflow rate = 10-4
Water outflow rate = Au = 10-4×√(2gh)
10-4 = 10-4×√(2gh)
So h = 1/2g
= 1/(2×10)
= 1/20
= 5×10-2 m
= 5 cm
Answer: a
10. Three Carnot engines operate in series between a heat source at a temperature T1 and a heat sink at temperature T4 (see figure). There are two other reservoirs at temperature T2 and T3, as shown, with T1 >T2 >T3 >T4. The three engines are equally efficient if :
a. T2 = (T1T42)1/3 ; T3 = (T12 T4)1/3
b. T2 = (T1T4)1/2 ; T3 = (T12 T4)1/3
c. T2 = (T12 T4)1/3 ; T3 = (T1 T42)1/3
d. T2 = (T13 T4)1/4 ; T3 = (T1 T43)1/4
t1 = 1-(T2/T1)
= 1-(T3/T2)
= 1-(T4/T3)
So T2/T1 = T3/T2 = T4/T3
T2 = √(T1T3)
=
\(\begin{array}{l}\sqrt{T_{1}\sqrt{T_{2}T_{4}}}\end{array} \)
T3 =
\(\begin{array}{l}\sqrt{T_{2}T_{4}}\end{array} \)
T23/4 =
\(\begin{array}{l}\sqrt{T_{1}^{\frac{1}{2}}}T_{4}^{\frac{1}{4}}\end{array} \)
T2 = T12/3 T41/3
T2 = (T12 T4 )1/3
T3 = (T1 T42)1/3
Answer: c

Separation between successive nodes, λ/2 = 20/100 m = 20 cm
Answer: c
13. A train moves towards a stationary observer with speed 34m/s. The train sounds a whistle and its frequency registered by the observer is f1. If the train’s speed is reduced to 17m/s, the frequency registered is f2. If the speed of sound of 340m/s, then the ratio f1/f2 is
a. 18/7
b. 21/20
c. 20/19
d. 19/18
f1 = f(v/v-vs)
= f(340/340-34)
= f(340/306)
f2 = f(340/340-17)
= f(340/323)
f1/f2 = 323/306 = 19/18
Answer: d

d. \(\begin{array}{l}\frac{Q(a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2})}{4\pi \epsilon _{0}(a^{3}+b^{3}+c^{3})}\end{array} \)
Potential at point P, V =
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{kQ_{a}}{a}+\frac{kQ_{b}}{b}+\frac{kQ_{c}}{c}\end{array} \)
Since Qa : Qb : Qc : :a 2 : b2: c2
Since σa = σb = σc
So Qa = (a2/a2+b2+c2) Q
Qb = (b2/a2+b2+c2) Q
Qc = (c2/a2+b2+c2) Q
V =
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{Q(a+b+c)}{4\pi \epsilon _{0}(a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2})}\end{array} \)

Given f1 = 2f2
(1/2f2) = (1/f1) = (μ1-1)[(1/∞)-(1/-R)]
(1/f2) = (μ2-1)[(1/-R)-(1/∞)]
(μ1-1)/R = (μ2-1)2R

24. In a Young’s double slit experiment with slit separation 0.1 mm, one observes a bright fringe at angle 1/40 rad by using light of wavelength λ1. When the light of wavelength λ2 is used a bright fringe is seen at the same at the same angle in the same set up. Given that λ1 and λ2 are in visible range (380 nm to 740 nm), their values are :
a. 380 nm, 525 nm
b. 625 nm, 500 nm
c. 380 nm, 500 nm
d. 400 nm, 500 nm
Path difference = d sinθ = dθ (approx)
= 0.1×(1/40)
= 2500 nm
For bright fringe, path difference must be integral multiple of λ.
So 2500 = nλ1 = mλ2
Hence λ1 = 625 (For n = 4)
λ2 = 500 (for m = 5)
Answer: b
25. In an electron microscope, the resolution that can be achieved is of the order of the wavelength of electrons used. To resolve a width of 7.5×10-12 m, the minimum electron energy required is close to :

d. 100 keV
Given λ = 7.5×10-12
h = λ = h/P
P = h/λ
KE = P2/2m
= (h/λ)2/2m
(h/λ)2 =[(6.6×10-34)/ (7.5×10-12)]2
KE = [(6.6×10-34)/ (7.5×10-12)]2 /2×9.1×10-31
= 25 KeV
Answer: b
26. Using a nuclear counter the count rate of emitted particles from a radioactive source is measured. At t = 0 it was 1600 counts per second and t = 8 seconds it was 100 counts per second. The count rate observed, as counts per second, at t = 6 seconds is close to :
a. 150
b. 200
c. 360
d. 400
At t = 0, A0 = dN/dt
= 1600 C/s
At t = 8s, A = 100 C/s
A/A0 = 1/16 in 8 seconds
Hence half life is t1/2 = 2 s
So the activity at t = 6 will be 1600/23
= 200 C/s
Answer: b

Q =
\(\begin{array}{l}\overline{\bar{y}.x}\end{array} \)
= \(\begin{array}{l}y+\bar{x}\end{array} \)
O/P =
\(\begin{array}{l}\overline{P+Q}\end{array} \)
To make O/P
P+Q should be ‘O’
Hence X = 1 and Y = 0.
