WBJEE 2019 - Physics

Question 1: A point object is placed on the axis of a thin convex lens of focal length 0.05 m at a distance of 0.2m from the lens and its image is formed on the axis. If the object is now made to oscillate along the axis with small amplitude of A cm, then what is the amplitude of oscillation of the image? (you may assume (1/(1+x) ≈ 1- x, where x≪1)

  1. a. (4A/9) x 10-2 m
  2. b. (5A/9) x 10-2 m
  3. c. (A/3) x 10-2 m
  4. d. (A/9) x 10-2 m

Solution:

  1. Answer: d

    WBJEE 2019 Physics Solutions

    u = -0.2 m

    f = 0.05 m

    By using lens formula,

    \(\frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{f}+\frac{1}{u}\)

    \(\frac{1}{v}=\frac{100}{5}-\frac{10}{2}\)

    \(\frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{15}m\)

    Let Aimage be the amplitude of the image.

    \(\Rightarrow -\frac{dv}{v^{2}}=-\frac{du}{u^{2}}\)

    \(\Rightarrow dv=du\times \frac{v^{2}}{u^{2}}\)

    \(A_{image}=A.\frac{v^{2}}{u^{2}}\)

    Substituting values,

    \(A_{image}=A.\frac{25}{225}\)

    \(A_{image}=\frac{A}{9}\times 10^{-2}m\)

Question 2: In Young's double slit experiment, d is the separation between the slits and D is the distance between the plane of the slits and the screen. If D is increased by 0.5% and d is decreased by 0.3% then, for a given light of a certain wavelength, which one of the following options is correct?

"It is the fringe width ................."

  1. a. increases by 0.8%
  2. b. decreases by 0.8%
  3. c. increases by 0.2%
  4. d. decreases by 0.2%

Solution:

  1. Answer: a

    The fringe width is given by: β= λD/d

    Where, D → distance of screen from slits

    d → width of the slit

    Now,

    \(\frac{\Delta \beta }{\beta }\times 100=\frac{\Delta D}{D}\times 100-\frac{\Delta d}{d}\times 100\)

    = 0.5 – (–0.3) = 0.8%

    Hence, the fringe width increases by 0.8%.

Question 3: When the frequency of the light used is changed from 4 × 1014 s–1to 5 × 1014 s–1, the angular width of the principal (central) maximum in a single slit Fraunhofer diffraction pattern changes by 0.6 radian. What is the width of the slit (assume that the experiment is performed in a vacuum)

  1. a. 1.5 × 10–7 m
  2. b. 3 × 10–7m
  3. c. 5 × 10–7m
  4. d. 6 × 10–7m

Solution:

  1. Answer: c

    Change in angular width, Δ θ= 0.6 rad.

    Wavelength of light is given by,

    \(\lambda =\frac{c}{\nu }\)

    c→Speed of light

    ν→Frequency of light

    Change in wavelength;

    \(\Delta \lambda =\frac{c}{\nu_{1} }-\frac{c}{\nu_{2} }\)

    \(\Delta \lambda =3\times 10^{8}\left [ \frac{1}{4\times 10^{14} }-\frac{1}{5\times 10^{14} } \right ]\)

    = 1.5 x 10-7 m

    Angular width of central maxima is,

    \(\theta =\frac{2\lambda }{d}\)

    \(\Delta \theta =\frac{2\Delta \lambda }{d}\)

    \(d=\frac{2\Delta \lambda }{\Delta \theta}\)

    \(d=\frac{2\times 1.5\times 10^{-7} }{0.6}\)

    \(d= 5\times 10^{-7}m\)

Question 4: A ray of light is reflected by a plane mirror

\(\hat{e_{0}}\)
,
\(\hat{e}\)
and
\(\hat{n}\)
be the unit vectors along the incident ray, reflected ray and the normal to the reflecting surface respectively. Which of the following gives an expression for
\(\hat{e}[\latex]?

Question 5: A parent nucleus X undergoes α-decay with a half-life of 75000 years. The daughter nucleus Y undergoes β-decay with a half-life of 9 months. In a particular sample, it is found that the rate of emission of β-particles is nearly constant (over several months) at 107/hour. What will be the number of α-particles emitted in an hour?

  1. a. 102
  2. b. 107
  3. c. 1012
  4. d. 1014

Solution:

  1. Answer: b

    When emission of β- particles is nearly constant then the number of nucleus of y at that duration is constant.

    So,

    \(\frac{dN_{y}}{dt}=0\)

    Ny →Number of daughter nuclei at timed.

    \(\Rightarrow \lambda _{x}N_{x}-\lambda _{y}N_{y}=\frac{dN_{y}}{dt}\)

    λxNx rate of α particle emission

    λyNy rate of β particle emission

    λxNx – λyNy = 0

    λxNx = λyNy = 107/hours

Question 6: A proton and an electron initially at rest are accelerated by the same potential difference. Assuming that a proton is 2000 times heavier than an electron, what will be the relation between the de Broglie wavelength of the proton (λp) and that of electron (λc)?

  1. a.
    \(\lambda _{p}=2000\lambda _{e}\)
  2. b.
    \(\lambda _{p}=\frac{\lambda _{e}}{2000}\)
  3. c.
    \(\lambda _{p}=20\sqrt{5}\lambda _{e}\)
  4. d.
    \(\lambda _{p}=\frac{\lambda _{e}}{20\sqrt{5}}\)

Solution:

Question 7: To which of the following, the angular velocity of the electron in the nth Bohr orbit is proportional?

  1. a. n2
  2. b. (1/n2)
  3. c. (1/n3/2)
  4. d. (1/n3 )

Solution:

  1. Answer: d

    Angular momentum:

    \(L=mr^{2}\omega =\frac{nh}{2\pi }\)

    \(\omega \propto \frac{n}{r^{2} }\)

    \(\omega \propto \frac{n}{(r_{0}n^{2})^{2}}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \omega \propto \frac{1}{n^{3}}\)

Question 8: In the circuit shown, what will be the current through the 6V zener?

Solutions of WBJEE 2019 Physics Paper

  1. a. 6mA, from A to B
  2. b. 2mA, from A to B
  3. c. 2 mA, from B to A
  4. d. zero

Solution:

  1. Answer: d

    The voltage across Zener diode will be,

    \(V=10\times \left [ \frac{1}{1+1} \right ]\Rightarrow V=5V\)

    As, the breakdown voltage of Zener diode is 6V and the potential difference across the diode is only 5V, therefore it will not conduct.

    ∴ No current will flow

    \(\overline{A+B}\)
  3. c.
    \(\overline{A.B}\)
  4. d.
    \(\bar{A}+\bar{B}\)

Solution:

  1. Answer: b

    By using Demorgen's law

    \(\bar{A}.\bar{B}=\overline{A+B}\)

Question 10: The correct dimensional formula for impulse is given by

  1. a. ML2T–2
  2. b. MLT–1
  3. c. ML2T–1
  4. d. MLT–2

Solution:

  1. Answer: b

    Impulse = charge in momentum

    I = ΔP

    \(\Rightarrow \left [ I \right ]=\left [ \Delta P \right ]=\left [ MLT^{-1} \right ]\)

Question 11: The density of the material of a cube can be estimated by measuring its mass and the length of one of its sides. If the maximum error in the measurement of mass and length are 0.3% and 0.2% respectively, the maximum error in the estimation of the density of the cube is approximately

  1. a.1.1%
  2. b.0.5%
  3. c.0.9%
  4. d.0.7%

Solution:

  1. Answer: c

    The density of the cube is

    \(\rho =\frac{M}{V}\)

    M → mass of cube

    V →Volume of cube

    Also, V = L3

    \(\frac{\Delta V}{V}=\frac{3\Delta L}{L}\)

    ∴Maximum error in density

    \(\left(\frac{\Delta \rho}{\rho}\right)_{\max }=\left(\frac{\Delta {m}}{m}\right)+\left(\frac{\Delta {V}}{{V}}\right)\)

    \(\left(\frac{\Delta \rho}{\rho}\right)_{\max }=\left(\frac{\Delta {m}}{m}\right)+3\left(\frac{\Delta {L}}{{L}}\right)\)

    \(\left(\frac{\Delta \rho}{\rho}\right)_{\max }\times 100=[0.3+3(0.2))]%\)

    = 0.9%

Question 12: Two weights of the mass m1and m2(> m1) are joined by an inextensible string of negligible mass passing over a fixed frictionless pulley. The magnitude of the acceleration of the loads is

    \(\frac{m_{1}}{m_{2}+m_{1}}g\)
  4. d.
    \(\frac{m_{2}- m_{1}}{m_{2}+m_{1}}g\)

Solution:

  1. Answer: d

    Solution Question Paper of WBJEE 2019 Physics

    m2g - T= m2a …… (1)

    T – m1g = m1a …… (2)

Question 13: Body starts from rest, under the action of an engine working at a constant power and moves along a straight line. The displacement S is given as a function of time (t) as

  1. a. S = at + bt2, a, b are constants
  2. b. S = bt2, b is a constant
  3. c. S = at3/2 ,a is a constant
  4. d. S = at, a is a constant

Solution:

  1. Answer: d

    P = W/t

    P →Power (Constant)

    W→ Work done

    t → time taken

    The work done is equal to change in kinetic energy

    \(P=\frac{\Delta KE}{\Delta t}=\frac{1/2mv^{2}}{t}=\frac{mv^{2}}{2t}\)

    \(\Rightarrow V\propto \sqrt{t}\)

    \(\frac{ds}{dt}\propto \sqrt{t}\)

    \(S\propto t^{3/2}\)

Question 14: Two particles are simultaneously projected in the horizontal direction from a point P at a certain height.

  1. a. 2-2/3R
  2. b. 22/3R
  3. c. 2–1/3R
  4. d. R/√2

Solution:

  1. Answer: a

    \(T^{2}\propto r^{3}\)

    T →Time period

    r →radius of orbit

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{r_{E}}{r_{p}}=\left [ \frac{T_{E}}{T_{p}} \right ]^{2/3}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{r_{E}}{r_{p}}=\left [ \frac{\omega _{E}}{\omega _{p}} \right ]^{2/3}\)

    (since,

    \(T\propto \omega\)
    )

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{R}{r_{p}}=(2)^{\frac{2}{3}}\)

    \({r_{p}}=(2)^{-\frac{2}{3}}R\)

  3. c. 16: 81
  4. d. 27: 177

Solution:

  1. Answer: c

    \(Q=\sigma T^{4}\)

    \(\frac{Q_{1}}{Q_{2}}=\left [ \frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}} \right ]^{4}\)

    \(=\left [ \frac{273+27}{273+177} \right ]^{4}\)

    \(=\left [ \frac{300}{450} \right ]^{4}\)

Question 22: Eleven equal point charges, all of them having a charge +Q, are placed at all the hour positions of a circular clock of radius r, except at the 10 hour position. What is the electric field strength at the centre of the clock?

  1. a.
    \(\frac{Q}{4\pi \varepsilon _{0}r^{2}}\)
    from the centre towards the mark 10
  2. b.
    \(\frac{Q}{4\pi \varepsilon _{0}r^{2}}\)
    from the mark 10 towards the centre
  3. c.
    \(\frac{Q}{4\pi \varepsilon _{0}r^{2}}\)
    from the centre towards the mark 6
  4. d. Zero

Solution:

  1. Answer: a

    Had all the hour positions were occupied by +Q charges, then the net electric field strength at the centre of the clock would have been zero, as due to symmetry of charge positions they would have cancelled electric field due to each other.

    ∴ E1 + E2 +............................. E11 + E12 = 0

    ∴ E1 + E2 +............................. E11 + E12 = –E10

    ∴ The electric field due to point charge at 10th-hour positions will be

    \(\frac{Q}{4\pi \varepsilon _{0}r^{2}}\)
    and the direction is from the centre towards the mark 10

    Energy supplied by the source of emf = CE2

    ∴ Energy dissipated in resistance = CE2-(1/2) CE2

    = (1/2) CE2

Question 33: A horizontal fire hose with a nozzle of cross-sectional area

\(\frac{5}{\sqrt{21}}\times 10^{-3}m^{2}\)
delivers a cubic metre of water in 10s. What will be the maximum possible increase in the temperature of water while it hits a rigid wall (neglecting the effect of gravity)?

  1. a. 1°C
  2. b. 0.1°C
  3. c. 10°C
  4. d. 0.01°C

Solution:

  1. Answer: a

    (dV/dt) = A.v

    A →Area of cross section of the nozzle

    V →Volume

    v→ velocity

    \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}=\frac{5}{\sqrt{21}}\times 10^{-3}V\)

    \(V=20\sqrt{21}m/s\)

    Now,

    \(\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}=ms\Delta T\)

    \(\Delta T=\frac{V^{2}}{2S}\)

    S→4.2 x 103 J/kg

    ΔT = 10C

Question 34: Two identical blocks of ice move in opposite directions with equal speed and collide with each other. What will be the minimum speed required to make both the blocks melt completely, if the initial temperatures of the blocks were –8°C each?

  1. a. 840 ms–1
  2. b. 420 ms–1
  3. c. 8.4 ms–1
  4. d. 84 ms–1

Solution:

  1. Answer: a

    By energy conservation

    \(2\times \frac{1}{2}mu^{2}=2\times [ms\Delta T+mL]\)

    \(\Rightarrow u^{2}=2[S\Delta T+L]\)

    S→ Specific heat capacity of ice = 2100 J/kgK

    L→ Latent heat of fusion of ice = 336 KJ/kg

    U2= 2[2100 x (8)+336000]

    ∴u = 840 m/s

Question 35: A particle with charge q moves with a velocity v in a direction perpendicular to the directions of uniform electric and magnetic fields, E and B respectively, which are mutually perpendicular to each other. Which one of the following gives the condition for which the particle moves undeflected in its original trajectory?

  1. a. V= E/B
  2. b. V = B/E
  3. c.
    \(v=\sqrt{\frac{E}{B}}\)
  4. d.
    \(v=q\frac{B}{E}\)

Solution:

  1. Answer: a

    Let the charge on the particle is q.

    Force on the particle due to electric field,

    FE = qE

    And force on the particle due to the magnetic field,

    FB = qVB

    ⇒As the particle moved undeflected in its original trajectory then

    qE = qVB

    Therefore, V= E/B

Question 36: A metallic loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field B with the plane of the loop perpendicular to B. Under which conditions(s) given below an emf will be induced in the loop?

"If the loop is ............."

  1. a. Moved along the direction of B
  2. b. Squeezed to a smaller area.
  3. c. Rotated about its axis
  4. d. Rotated about one of its diameters.

Solution:

  1. Answer: b,d

    Emf is induced when there is a change in flux with respect to time. Out of the given options only in case of option b & d flux will charge.

Question 37: Electrons are emitted with kinetic energy T from a metal plate by irradiation of light of intensity J and frequency v. Then which of the following will be true?

  1. a. T ∝J
  2. b. T linearly increasing with v
  3. c. T ∝ time of irradiation
  4. d. Number of electrons emitted ∝ J

Solution:

  1. Answer: b,d

    Kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted.

    T = hν- Φ

    ⇒ T ∝ν

    Also, J = (dN/dt)( hν)

    ⇒ J∝ν

    ⇒T∝ J

Question 38: The initial pressure and volume of a given mass of an ideal gas (with Cp/Cv= γ), taken in a cylinder fitted with a piston, are P0 and V0 respectively. At this stage, the gas has the same temperature as that of the surrounding medium which is T0. It is adiabatically compressed to a volume equal to V0/2. Subsequently, the gas is allowed to come to thermal equilibrium with the surroundings. What is the heat released to the surroundings?

  1. a. 0
  2. b.
    \((2^{\gamma-1}-1)\frac{P_{0}V_{0}}{r-1}\)
  3. c.
    \(\gamma P_{0}V_{0}In2\)
  4. d.
    \(\frac{P_{0}V_{0}}{2(\gamma -1)}\)

Solution:

  1. Answer: b

Question 39: A projectile thrown with an initial velocity of 10ms–1 at an angle α with the horizontal, has a range of 5m.Taking g = 10ms–2 and neglecting air resistance, what will be the estimated value of α?

  1. a. 15°
  2. b. 30°
  3. c. 45°
  4. d. 75°

Solution:

  1. Answer: (a,d)

    Range,

    \(R=\frac{u^{2}sin2\alpha }{g}\)

    ⇒

    \(5=\frac{100\times sin2\alpha }{10}\)

    ⇒

    \(sin(2\alpha )=\frac{1}{2}\)

    ⇒

    \(2\alpha = 30^{0}\)

    Therefore,

    \(\alpha = 15^{0}\)

    Also, sin(2α) = (1/2)

    ⇒ 2 α =1500

    Therefore, α = 750
