Paper – 2 Section 1: (Integer value correct type)

This section contains EIGHT questions. The answer to each question is a SINGLE DIGIT INTEGER ranging from 0 to 9, both inclusive.

1. A large spherical mass M is fixed at one position and two identical point masses m are kept on a line

passing through the centre of M (see the below figure). The point masses are connected by a rigid

massless rod of length l and this assembly is free to move along the line connecting them. All three

masses interact only through their mutual gravitational interaction. When the point mass nearer to M is at

a distance r = 3l from M, the tension in the rod is zero for .288

2. The energy of a system as a function of time t is given as E(l) = A2 exp (l), where = 0.2 s1 . The

measurement of A has an error of 1.25%. If the error in the measurement of time is 1.50%, the

percentage error in the value of E(l) at l = 5 e is

Therefore, % error (at t = 5 s) = (0.2 5 1.5) + (2 1.25)

Considering the worst case, all errors are added

% error = 1.5 + 2.5 = 4

12. In plotting stress versus strain curves for two materials P and Q, a student by mistake puts strain

on the y­axis and stress on the x­axis as shown in the figure. Then the correct statement(s) is(are)

(A) P has more tensile strength than Q

(B) P is more ductile than Q

Section 3: (Paragraph Type) This section contains TWO paragraphs. Based on each paragraph, there will be TWO questions. Each question has four options (A), (B), (C) and (D). ONE OR MORE THAN ONE of these four option(s) is (are) correct.

Paragraph for Questions 17 and 18: In a thin rectangular metallic strip a constant current I flows along

the positive x­direction, as shown in the below figure. The length, width and thickness of the strip are l,

w and d, respectively.

A uniform magnetic field B

is applied on the strip along the positive y­direction. Due to this,

the charge carriers experience a net deflection along the z­direction. This results in accumulation of

charge carriers on the surface PQRS and appearance of equal and opposite charges on the face opposite

to PQRS. A potential difference along the z­direction is thus developed. Charge accumulation continues

until the magnetic force is balanced by the electric force. The current is assumed to be uniformly

distributed on the cross­section of the strip and carried by electrons.

1 7. Consider two dif ferent metallic strips (1 and 2) of the same material. Their lengths are the same,

widths are 1 and 2 and thickness of d1 and d2, respectively. Two points K and M are symmetrically

located on the opposite faces parallel to the x­y plane (see the above figure). V1 and V2 are the potential

difference between K and M in strips 1 and 2, respectively. Then, for a given current I flowing through

them in a given magnetic field strength B, the correct statement(s) is (are)

(A) If 1 = 2 and d1 = 2d2, then V2 = 2V1

Paragraphs for Questions 19 and 20: Light guidance in an optical fibre can be understood by

considering a structure comprising of thin solid glass cylinder of refractive index n1 surrounded by a

medium of lower refractive index n2. The light guidance in the structure takes place due to successive

total internal reflections at the interface of the media n1 and n2 as shown in the below figure. All rays

with the angle of incidence i less than a particular value im are confined in the medium of refractive

index n1 . The numerical aperture (NA) of the structure is defined as sin im.

1 9. For two structures namely S1 with 1 45/4n = and n2 = 3/2, and S2 with n1 = 8/5 and n2 = 7/5 and

Considering complete decay of 23892 U to 206

82 Pb , the ratio of the final pressure to the initial

pressure of the system at 298 K is Solution (9) Let us consider 1 mol of air = X atm

During the reaction of 23892 U 206

82 Pb , 8 particles are released.

That is 8 mol of He particles are released during the reaction. Therefore, 9 mol of gas are present in the vessel.

Because the enthalpy of neutralization of a strong acid with a strong base is a constant (−57.0 kJ mol −1 ), this experiment could be used to measure the calorimeter constant. In a second experiment (Expt. 2) 100 mL of 2.0 M acetic acid (Ka = 2.0 × 10 −5 ) was mixed with 100 mL of 1.0 M NaOH (under identical conditions to Expt. 1) where a temperature rise of 5.6°C was measured.

(−1, 2). Let the values of f and g at the points −1, 0 and 2 be as given in the following table:

x = −1

x = 0 x = 2

f(x) 3 6 0 g(x) 0 1 −1

In each of the intervals (−1, 0) and (0, 2) the function ( 3 )f g ¢¢­ never vanishes. Then the

correct statement(s) is(are)

(A) ( ) 3 ( ) 0f x g x¢ ¢­ = has exactly three solutions in ( 1,0) (0,2)­ È

(B) ( ) 3 ( ) 0f x g x¢ ¢­ = has exactly one solution in (−1, 0)

(D) ( ) 3 ( ) 0f x g x¢ ¢­ = has exactly two solutions in (−1, 0) and exactly two solutions in (0,

Solution

(B), (C) f, g: [−1, 2] → R,

f(x) is twice diff on (−1, 2)

f(−1) = 3, g(−1) = 0,

f(0) = 6, g(0) = 1

Let f(x) = f(x) – 3g(x)

f(−1) = f(−1) – 3g(−1) = 3,

f(0) = f(0) – 3g(0) = 6 – 3(1) = 3

\ By Rolle’s theorem, ( )f x¢ i.e., ( ) 3 ( ) 0f x g x¢ ¢­ =

has atleast one root in (−1, 0).

Also f(2) = f(2) – 3g(2) = 0 – 3(−1) = 3

i.e. ( ) 3 ( ) 0f x g x¢ ¢­ = has at least 2 roots in (−1, 2).

Since ( 3 ) 0f g ¢¢­ ¹ for (−1, 0) and (0, 2)

Þ f(x) has no point of inflexion in (−1, 0) and (0, 2)

Þ ( 3 )( ) 0f g x¢ ¢­ ¹ in (−1, 0) and (0, 2)
