September 4 Shift 1 – Physics

1. Starting from the origin at time t = 0, with initial velocity

\(\begin{array}{l}5\hat{j}ms^{-1}\end{array} \)
, a particle moves in the x-y plane with a constant acceleration of
\(\begin{array}{l}(10\hat{i}+4\hat{j})ms^{-2}\end{array} \)
. At time t, its coordinates are(20 m,y0 m). The values of t and y0 are, respectively:


1) 5s and 25 m
2) 2s and 18 m
3) 2s and 24 m
4) 4s and 52 m

Equation of motion gives us

\(\begin{array}{l}y = u_{y}t + \frac{1}{2}a_{y}t^2\end{array} \)

Here uy= 5ms–1, ux= 0 ms–1, ax= 10ms–2, ay= 4ms–2

y = 5t+2t2

and x = 0 +(1/2)(10) (t2) = 20

t = 2s

y = 10 + 8 = 18m

2. A small bar magnet placed with its axis at 30° with an external field of 0.06 T experiences a torque of 0.018 Nm. The minimum work required to rotate it from its stable to unstable equilibrium position is:


1) 7.2 × 10–2 J
2) 6.4 × 10–2 J
3) 9.2 × 10–3 J
4) 11.7 × 10–3 J

Τ = MB sin 30º

0.018 = MB(1/2)

MB = 0.036

w = ∆U = |MB cos00 —MB cos 1800| = 2MB = 7.2 × 10–2 J

6. A battery of 3.0V is connected to a resistor dissipating 0.5 W of power. If the terminal voltage of the battery is 2.5V, the power dissipated within the internal resistance is:


1) 0.072 W
2) 0.10 W
3) 0.125 W
4) 0.50 W

Answer: 2

Solved Paper of JEE Main 2020 Physics Shift 1 - 4th Sept

PR = 0.5 W

⇒ i2R = 0.5 W

Also, V = E – ir

2.5 = 3 – ir

⇒ir = 0.5

Power dissipated across ‘r’ ” Pr = i2r

Now iR = 2.5

ir = 0.5

On dividing : R / r = 5

\(\begin{array}{l}Now, \frac{P_{R}}{P_{r}} = \frac{i^{2}R}{i^{2}r}\Rightarrow \frac{P_{R}}{P_{r}}\frac{R}{r}\Rightarrow \frac{P_{R}}{P_{r}} = 5\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}P_{r} = \frac{P_{R}}{5}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}P_{r} = \frac{0.50}{5} = 0.10\: W\end{array} \)

Another block of mass m, moving with speed v along the same line (see figure) collides with mass m in perfectly inelastic manner. All the subsequent collisions are also perfectly inelastic.

1) 94
2) 87
3) 37
4) 77

Answer: 1

JEE Main 2020 Physics Shift 1 - 4th Sept Sample Paper with Solutions

All collisions are perfectly inelastic, so after the final collision, all blocks are moving together. So let the final velocity be v, so on applying momentum conservation : mv = 16 m v v = v/16 

Now initial energy E1 = ½ mv2

Final energy:

Ef = ½ x 16m x (v / 16)2 ⇒ Ef = ½ m x v2 / 16

Energy loss : Ei – Ef

⇒ ½ mv2 – ½ m x v2 / 16

\(\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}\left [ 1 – \frac{1}{16} \right ] \Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}\left [ \frac{15}{16} \right ]\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}% p = \frac{Energy \: Loss}{Original\: Energy}\times 100\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow \frac{\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}\left [ \frac{15}{16} \right ]}{\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}} \times 100 = 93.75 %\end{array} \)

⇒ Value of P is quite near to 94.

Threshold energy = φ = hf0, Here f0 = 5.5 × 1014Hz

φ = hf0

13. The specific heat of water = 4200 J kg–1K–1 and the latent heat of ice = 3.4 × 105 J kg-1.100 grams of ice at 0°C is placed in 200 g of water at 25°C. The amount of ice that will melt as the temperature of water reaches 0°C is close to (in grams):


1) 63.8
2) 64.6
3) 61.7
4) 69.3

Answer: 3

Heat loss by water when it cools down to 00 C is,

Q = mws∆θ = (200/1000).(4200) (25) = 21000 J

Which is less than the amount of heat (mLf) required to melt ice completely.

∆miL = 21000 J

To find the amount of ice melt (∆mi), take

∆mi =[21000/(3.4×105)] x 103 gm = 61.7 grams

21. In the line spectra of hydrogen atoms, difference between the largest and the shortest wavelengths of the Lyman series is 304Å. The corresponding difference for the Paschen series in Å is : ___________.


Answer: 10553

For shortest wave length in Lyman, we have

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{\lambda }=R\left [ 1 \right ]\end{array} \)
(i.e. n= ∞ to n =1)

For longest wave length in Lyman

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{\lambda^{‘} }=R\left [ 1 -\frac{1}{4}\right ]=\frac{3R}{4}\end{array} \)

In Paschen series, for shortest wave length

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{\lambda^{s} }=R\left [ \frac{1}{3^{2}} -\frac{1}{ \infty^{2} }\right ]\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{\lambda^{s} }=R\left [ \frac{1}{3^{2}}\right ]=\frac{R}{9}\end{array} \)

And for longest wave length

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{\lambda_{l} }=R\left [ \frac{1}{3^{2}}-\frac{1}{4^{2}}\right ]=\frac{7R}{144}\end{array} \)

Now, taking ratio we get

Answer: 11

If m is mass of lamina and l is its side length, then moment of inertia of lamina about an axis passing through G and perpendicular to plane is I0.

Then,

\(\begin{array}{l}3I = I_{0}-\frac{I_{0}}{16}=\frac{15I_{0}}{16}\end{array} \)

\(\begin{array}{l}M=\frac{v_{0}}{u_{0}}\left ( 1+\frac{D}{f_{e}} \right )\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}M=\frac{L}{f_{0}}\left ( 1+\frac{D}{f_{e}} \right )\end{array} \)
(since vo ≈L, u0≈f0)

\(\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow 100 = \left [ \frac{20}{1} \right ]\left [ 1+\frac{25}{f_{e}} \right ]\end{array} \)

on solving we get
