0.635g  of a cupric salt was dissolved in water, excess of KI  was added and the liberated iodine required 25ml of N/5Na2S2O3N solution the weight percentage of copper in the salt is ?

Answer»

The number of Cu2+ = 25 × 1/5 = 5 = Number of milli moles

The weight of the copper in cupric salt is:

⇒ 5 × 63.5 × 10-3 = 0.3175 g

Now, the weight of the copper in 0.635 g of a cupric salt is:

⇒ 0.3175/0.635 = 0.5 g

now, the weight percentage is:

⇒ 0.5 × 100% = 50%

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Consider an element of width dy at a distance y form origin.
Induced emf across its ends is `Bv_(0)dy`, where `B=(B_(0))/(L) y`.

A block is kept on a smooth wedge whose vertical section is a curve y=x2/√3 as shown in figure where x represents horizontal direction and y represents vertical direction. When released from a point where y=1/4√3, what will be its accelerations ? (g=10 m/s2)

Answer»

At the releasing point acceleration will be gsinθ, for calculating we can use the concept that,

\(\tan\theta = \dfrac{y}{x}=\dfrac{1/4\sqrt{3}}{1/2}=\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{3}}\)
since, if \(y=1/4\sqrt{3}, \Rightarrow x=1/2\)
therefore, \(\sin \theta =p/h=1/\sqrt{13}\)
we get the value of acceleration as,

\(a=g\times \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{13}}=2.78 m/s^2\)

X does half of the work what Y does in one sixth of the time. They take 10 days to complete a work together, how much time Y take to do it alone?1. 70 days2. 40 days3. 50 days4. 80 days

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 40 days

Given:

X and Y complete work together in 10 days

Calculation:

Let Y does the whole work in a days

Work done by Y in 1 day = 1/a

According to the question: 

X does the half of 1/a work in a/6 days

X does the whole work in 2a/6 days = a/3 days

⇒ Work done by X in one day = 3/a

⇒ Work done by X and Y together in one day =1/a+3/a = 4/a

Time taken to complete the whole work by X and Y together = 1/4 = a/4 days

Again,

a/4 = 10

⇒ a = 40 days

Time taken by Y in 40 days.

Laxmi and Suhani together can do a piece of work in 12 days. Suhani and Megha together do it in 15 days. If Laxmi’s efficiency is twice that of Megha, Then the days required for Suhani alone to finish the work is:-1. 20 days 2. 16 days3. 17 days4. 15 days5. 25 days

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 20 days 

Given:

Efficiency of Laxmi : Megha = 2 : 1    

Laxmi and Suhani can do work together in 12 days.

Suhani and Megha can do work together in 15 days.

Concept Used:

Time ∝ 1/efficiency

Calculation:

The ratio of efficiency of Laxmi and Meghna = 2 : 1

⇒ The ratio of time taken by Laxmi and Meghna = 1 : 2

According to the question,

Laxmi and Suhani can do work together 1 day = 1/12

Suhani and Megha can do work together in 1 days = 1/15

According to the question:

Difference between Laxmi and Megha can do work together in 1 days 

⇒ [(1/12) – (1/15)]

⇒ (5 –  4)/60 = 1/60

Let Laxmi alone complete the work in x days, 

Megha will do the same in 2x days.

⇒ [(1/x) – (1/2x)] = 1/60

⇒ [(1/x) – (1/2x)] = 1/60

⇒ [(2 – 1)/2x)] = 1/60

⇒ 1/2x = 1/60

⇒ x = 30

Suhani's 1 day's work, 

⇒ [(1/12) – (1/30)]

⇒ [(5 – 2)/60)]

⇒ 3/60 = 1/20

∴ Suhani alone to finish the work in 20 days.
