A parallel plate condenser with oil (dielectric constant 2) between the plates has capacitance C. If oil is removed, the capacitance of capacitor becomesA. `sqrt(2C)`B. 2CC. `(C)/(sqrt2)`D. `(C)/(2)` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - D The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor with dielectric (oil) between its plates is. `C=(Kepsi_(0)A)/(d).....(i)` where `epsi_(0)`,=electric permittivity of free space K=dielectric constant A=area of each plate of capacitor d=distance between two plates When dielectric (oil) is removed, so capacitance `c_(0)=(epsi_(0)A)/(d).....(ii)` Comparing Eqs. (i) and (iii), we get `C=KC_(0)` `Rightarrow C_(0)=(C)/(K)=(C)/(2) (therefore K=2)` |

In a radioactive material the activity at time `t_(1)` is `R_(1)` and at a later time `t_(2)`, it is `R_(2)`. If the decay constant of the material is `lambda`, thenA. `R_(1)=R_(2)e^(-lambda(t_(1)-t_(2)))`B. `R_(1)=R_(2)e^(lambda(t_(1)-t_(2)))`C. `R_(1)=R_(2)(t_(2)//t_(1))`D. `R_(1)=R_(2)` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - A The decay rate R of a radioactive material is the number of decays per second. From radioactive decay law. `-(dN)/(dt)alpha N or -(dN)/(dt)=lambdaN` `"Thus", R=-(dN)/(dt)` `or R=lambdaN or R=lamdaN_(0)E^(-lambdat).....(i)` Where, `R_(0)=lambdaN_(0)` is the activity of the radioactive material at time t=0. At time, `t_(1), R_(1)=R_(0)e^(-lambdat_(1))......(ii)` At time `t_(2)`, `R_(2)=R_(0)e^(-lambdat_(2))......(iii)` Dividing Eq, (ii) by (iii), we have `(R_(1))/(R_(2))=(e^(-lambdat_(1)))/(e^(-lambdat_(2)))=e^(-lambda(t_(1)-t_(2)))` `or R_(1)=R_(2)e^(-lambda(t_(1)-t_(2)))` |

A boat at anchor is rocked by waves whose crests are `100 m` apart and whose speed is `25 m//s`. These waves reach the boat once every :A. 2500sB. 75sC. 4sD. 0.25s |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - C Key Idea: The distance between the two consecutive crests in transverse wave motion is called wavelength. The boat bounces up, ie, it travels from crest to the consecutive crest along wave motion. Wavelength=distance between two consecutive crests `i.e,=lambda=100m` Velocity of wave=25m/s Hence, time in one bounce of boat `t=(lambda)/(v)=(100)/(25)=4s` |

|
Answer» Correct Answer - C `n=("total time")/("half-life period")=(90)/(30)=3` `N=N_(0)xx((1)/(2))^(n)` `=600xx((1)/(2))^(3)` `=(600)/(8)` =75atoms |
|
| 6. |
Which one of the following processes dependsA. ConductionB. ConvectionC. RadiationD. None of these |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - B (a) Conduction is the process of transmission of heat in a body from the hotter part to the colder part without any bodily movement of constituent atoms or molecules of the body. (b) In convection, the heated lighter particles move upwards and colder heavier particles move downwards to their place. This depends on weight and hence, on gravity. (c) Radiation is the process of transmission of heat from the body to another body through electromagnetic waves through vacuum, irrespective of their temperatures. Hence, (b) is correct. |

The acceleration due to gravity on the planet `A` is `9` times the acceleration due to gravity on planet `B`. A man jumps to a height of `2 m` on the surface of `A`. What is the height of jump by the same person on the planet `B` ?A. 6mB. `(2)/(3)m`C. `2//9`mD. 18m |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - D It is given that, acceleration due to gravity on planet A is 9 times the acceleration due to gravity on planet ie, `g_(A)=9_(g_(B)).....(i)` For third equation of motion `v^(2)=2gh` At plaenet A, `h_(A)=(v^(2))/(2g_(A)),......(ii)` At plaenet B, `h_(B)=(v^(2))/(2g_(B))......(iii)` Dividing Eq. (ii) by Eq. (iii), we have `(h_(A))/(h_(B))=(g_(B))/(g_(A))` From Eq. (i) `g_(A)=9g_(B)` `therefore (h_(A))/(h_(B))=(g_(B))/(9g_(B))=(1)/(9)` or `h_(B)=9h_(A)=9xx2=18m (therefore h_(A)=2m)` |

The potential energy of a simple harmonic oscillator when the particle is half way to its end point is (where, E is the total energy)A. `(1)/(4)E`B. `(1)/(2)E`C. `(2)/(3)E`D. `(1)/(8)E` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - A Potential energy of a simple harmonic oscillator `U=(1)/(2)momega^(2)y^(2)` Kinetic energy of a simple harmonic oscillator `K=(1)/(2)momega^(2)(A^(2)-y^(2))` Here, y=displacement from mean position A=maximum displacement (or amplitude) from mean position Total energy is E=U+K `=(1)/(2)momega^(2)y^(2)+(1)/(2)momega^(2)(A^(2)-y^(2))` `=(1)/(2)momega^(2)A^(2)` When the particle half way to its end point ie, at half of its amplitude then `y=(A)/(2)` Hence potential energy `U=(1)/(2)momega^(2)((A)/(2))^(2)` `=(1)/(4)((1)/(2)momega^(2)A^(2))` `U=(E)/(4)` |

The gas having average speed four times as that of `SO_(2)` (molecular mass 64) isA. He (molecular mass 4)B. `O_(2)` (molecular mass 32)C. `H_(2)` (molecular mass 2)D. `CH_(4)` (molecular mass 16) |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - A Average speed `(v_("av"))` of gas molecules is inversely proportional to the square root of the absolute temperature (T) of the gas. `v_(av)=sqrt((8RT)/(piM))` When R is gas constant and M the molecular weight. Given, `v_(1)=v, M_(1)=64, v_(2)=4v` `(v)/(4v)=sqrt((M_(2))/(64))` `Rightarrow M_(2)=(64)/(16)=4` Hence, the gas is helium (molecular mass 4). |

In SHM restoring force is `F = -kx`, where k is force constant, x is displacement and a is amplitude of motion, then total energy depends uponA. K,A and MB. k,x, MC. k,AD. k,x |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - C In SHM, the total energy =potential energy+kinetic energy or `E=U+K` `=(1)/(2)momega^(2)x^(2)+(1)/(2)momega^(2)(A^(2)-x^(2))` `=(1)/(2)momega^(2)A^(2)=(1)/(2)kA^(2)` where k=force constant `=momega^(2)` Thus, total energy dependents on k and A. |

|
Answer» Correct Answer - C Displacement equation `y=A sin omegat-B cos omemgat` Let `A=a cos theta and B=a sin theta` So, `A^(2)+B^(2)=a^(2)` `Rightarrow a=sqrt(A^(2)+B^(2))` Then, `y=a cos theta sin omega t-a sin theta cos omega t` Which is the equation of simple harmonic oscillator. The amplitude of the oscillator `=a=sqrt(A^(2)+B^(2))` |

|
Answer» Correct Answer - D For any square matrix B, we have `B("adj B")=|B|I_(n)` On taking B=adj A, we get (adj A)[adj (adj A)]=|adj A|`I_(n)` `Rightarrow ` adjA[adj(adj A)]=`|A|^(n-1)I_(n) (therefore |adj A|=|A|^(n-1))` `Rightarrow` (A adj A)[adj (adj A)]=`|A|^(n-1)A` `Rightarrow (|A|I_(n))[adj (adj A)]=|A|^(n-1)A` `Rightarrow` adj(adj A)=`|A|^(n-2)A` |

|
Answer» Correct Answer - B The equation of any line through the point `P(alpha,beta)` is `(x-alpha)/(cos theta)=(y-beta)/(sin theta)=k("say")` Any point on this line is `(alpha+k cos theta, beta+k sin theta)` This point lies on the given circle, if `(alpha+k cos theta)^(2)+(beta+k sin theta)^(2)=r^(2) or k^(2)+2k(alpha cos theta+beta sin theta)+alpha^(2)+beta^(2)-r^(2)=0......(i)` Which being quadratic in k, gives two values of k. Let PA=`k_(1),PB=k_(2)`, where `k_(1),k_(2)` are the roots of Eq. (i) then, `PA.PB=k_(1)k_(2)=alpha^(2)+beta^(2)-r^(2)` |

Let `f(x)=(ax + b )/(cx+d)`. Then the `fof (x)=x`, provided that : `(a!=0, b!= 0, c!=0,d!=0)`A. d=-aB. d=aC. a=b=c=d=1D. a=b=1 |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - D Given, `f(x)=(ax+b)/(cx+b)` `and fof(x)=x` `Rightarrow f((ax+b)/(cx+b))=x` `Rightarrow (a((ax+b)/(cx+b))+b)/(c((ax+b)/(cx+b))+d)=x` `Rightarrow (x(a^(2)+bc)+ab+bd)/(x(ac+cd)+bc+d^(2))=x` `Rightarrow d=-a` |

The slope of the tangent at `(x , y)`to a curvepassing through `(1,pi/4)`is given by`y/x-cos^2(y/x),`then theequation of the curve is(a) `( b ) (c) y=( d ) (e)tan^(( f ) (g)-1( h ))( i )(( j ) (k)log(( l ) (m) (n) e/( o ) x (p) (q) (r))( s ))( t )`(u)(v) `( w ) (x) y=x (y) (z)tan^(( a a ) (bb)-1( c c ))( d d )(( e e ) (ff)log(( g g ) (hh) (ii) x/( j j ) e (kk) (ll) (mm))( n n ))( o o )`(pp)(qq)`( r r ) (ss) y=x (tt) (uu)tan^(( v v ) (ww)-1( x x ))( y y )(( z z ) (aaa)log(( b b b ) (ccc) (ddd) e/( e e e ) x (fff) (ggg) (hhh))( i i i ))( j j j )`(kkk)(d) none of theseA. `y=tan^(-1)[log((e)/(x))]`B. `y=x tan^(-1)[log((x)/(e))]`C. `y=x tan^(-1)[log((e)/(x))]`D. None of these |

Answer» Correct Answer - C According to the given condition, `(dy)/(dx)=(y)/(x)-cos^(2)((y)/(x))` On putting y=mx `Rightarrow (dy)/(dx)=b+x(dv)/(dx),` we get `v+x(dy)/(dx)=v-cos^(2)v` `Rightarrow (dv)/(cos^(2)v)=-(dx)/(x)` `Rightarrow sec^(2)vdv=(-1)/(x)dx` On integrating both sides, we get `tan v=-log x+log x` `Rightarrow tan((y)/(x))=-log x+log c` Since, this curve is pasing through `(1,pi//4)`, `therefore tan((pi)/(4))=-log1+log cRightarrow log c=1` `therefore tan ((y)/(x))=-log x+1` `Rightarrow tan((y)/(x))=-logx+log x` `Rightarrow y=xtan ^(-1)[log((e)/(x))]` |

The derivative of log|x| isA. `(1)/(x), x gt 0`B. `(1)/(|x|), x ne 0`C. `(1)/(x), x ne 0`D. None of these |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - C We have `y=log|x|={{:(,log x,x gt0),(,log(-x),x lt ):}` `therefore (dy)/(dx)={{:(,(1)/(x), x gt0),(,(1)/(-x)(-1)=(1)/(x),x lt 0):}` `Rightarrow (dy)/(dx)=(1)/(x), x ne 0` |
