Curie temperature is the temperature above which
A
$A$ paramagnetic material becomes ferromagnetic
B
$A$ ferromagnetic material becomes paramagnetic
C
$A$ paramagnetic material becomes diamagnetic
D
$A$ ferromagnetic material becomes diamagnetic

Solution

(B) The Curie temperature $(T_C)$ is a characteristic property of ferromagnetic materials.
Below the Curie temperature,the magnetic moments of atoms in a ferromagnetic material are aligned in domains,resulting in strong spontaneous magnetization.
As the temperature increases,thermal agitation disrupts this alignment.
At temperatures above $T_C$,the thermal energy becomes sufficient to overcome the exchange interaction that keeps the magnetic moments aligned.
Consequently,the material loses its ferromagnetic properties and transitions into a paramagnetic state,where the susceptibility follows the Curie-Weiss law.

$A$ spring balance is attached to the ceiling of a lift. $A$ man hangs his bag on the spring and the spring reads $49 \, N$,when the lift is stationary. If the lift moves downward with an acceleration of $5 \, m/s^2$,the reading of the spring balance will be .......... $N$.
A
$24.5$
B
$74$
C
$15$
D
$49$

Solution

(A) When the lift is stationary,the reading of the spring balance is equal to the weight of the bag,so $T = mg = 49 \, N$. Taking $g = 9.8 \, m/s^2$,the mass of the bag is $m = \frac{49}{9.8} = 5 \, kg$.
When the lift moves downward with an acceleration $a = 5 \, m/s^2$,the equation of motion for the bag is $mg - T' = ma$,where $T'$ is the new reading of the spring balance.
Therefore,$T' = m(g - a)$.
Substituting the values,$T' = 5 \times (9.8 - 5) = 5 \times 4.8 = 24 \, N$.

$A$ block of mass $M$ is pulled along a horizontal frictionless surface by a rope of mass $m$. If a force $P$ is applied at the free end of the rope,the force exerted by the rope on the block is-
A
$\frac{Pm}{M + m}$
B
$\frac{Pm}{M - m}$
C
$P$
D
$\frac{PM}{M + m}$

Solution

(D) Consider the system consisting of the block of mass $M$ and the rope of mass $m$ as a single unit.
The total mass of the system is $(M + m)$.
$A$ horizontal force $P$ is applied to the free end of the rope,which acts as the net external force on the system.
According to Newton's second law,the acceleration $a$ of the system is given by:
$a = \frac{\text{Total Force}}{\text{Total Mass}} = \frac{P}{M + m}$
Since the block and the rope move together,the block of mass $M$ also moves with the same acceleration $a$.
The force exerted by the rope on the block is the net force required to accelerate the block of mass $M$:
$F = M \times a$
Substituting the value of $a$:
$F = M \times \left( \frac{P}{M + m} \right) = \frac{PM}{M + m}$

$A$ marble block of mass $2\, kg$ lying on ice when given a velocity of $6\, m/s$ is stopped by friction in $10\, s$. Then the coefficient of friction is-
A
$0.02$
B
$0.03$
C
$0.06$
D
$0.01$

Solution

(C) Given: Initial velocity $u = 6\, m/s$,final velocity $v = 0\, m/s$,time $t = 10\, s$,and acceleration due to gravity $g = 10\, m/s^2$.
The frictional force $f$ acting on the block is $f = \mu N = \mu mg$.
According to Newton's second law,the retardation $a$ is given by $a = -\frac{f}{m} = -\frac{\mu mg}{m} = -\mu g$.
Using the first equation of motion,$v = u + at$,we substitute the values:
$0 = 6 + (-\mu \times 10) \times 10$.
$0 = 6 - 100\mu$.
$100\mu = 6$.
$\mu = \frac{6}{100} = 0.06$.

$A$ wire suspended vertically from one of its ends is stretched by attaching a weight of $200 \ N$ to the lower end. The weight stretches the wire by $1 \ mm$. The elastic energy stored in the wire is ......... $J$.
A
$0.1$
B
$0.2$
C
$10$
D
$20$

Solution

(A) The elastic potential energy $U$ stored in a stretched wire is given by the formula:
$U = \frac{1}{2} \times F \times x$
Where $F$ is the applied force and $x$ is the extension produced.
Given:
Force $F = 200 \ N$
Extension $x = 1 \ mm = 10^{-3} \ m$
Substituting these values into the formula:
$U = \frac{1}{2} \times 200 \times 10^{-3}$
$U = 100 \times 10^{-3}$
$U = 0.1 \ J$
Therefore,the elastic energy stored in the wire is $0.1 \ J$.

Two identical photo-cathodes receive light of frequencies $f_1$ and $f_2$. If the velocities of the photoelectrons (of mass $m$) coming out are respectively $v_1$ and $v_2$,then:
A
${v_1} - {v_2} = {\left[ {\frac{{2h}}{m}\left( {{f_1} - {f_2}} \right)} \right]^{1/2}}$
B
$v_1^2 - v_2^2 = \frac{{2h}}{m}\left( {{f_1} - {f_2}} \right)$
C
${v_1} + {v_2} = {\left[ {\frac{{2h}}{m}\left( {{f_1} + {f_2}} \right)} \right]^{1/2}}$
D
$v_1^2 + v_2^2 = \frac{{2h}}{m}\left( {{f_1} + {f_2}} \right)$

Solution

(B) Identical photo-cathodes imply they have the same work function,denoted by $\phi$.
According to Einstein's photoelectric equation:
$K_{max,1} = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 = hf_1 - \phi$ --- $(1)$
$K_{max,2} = \frac{1}{2}mv_2^2 = hf_2 - \phi$ --- $(2)$
Subtracting equation $(2)$ from equation $(1)$:
$\frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 - \frac{1}{2}mv_2^2 = (hf_1 - \phi) - (hf_2 - \phi)$
$\frac{1}{2}m(v_1^2 - v_2^2) = h(f_1 - f_2)$
$v_1^2 - v_2^2 = \frac{2h}{m}(f_1 - f_2)$

$A$ horizontal force of $10\,N$ is necessary to just hold a block stationary against a wall. The coefficient of friction between the block and the wall is $0.2$. The weight of the block is ........ $N$.
Question diagram
A
$20$
B
$50$
C
$100$
D
$2$

Solution

(D) To hold the block stationary against the wall,the downward gravitational force (weight $W$) must be balanced by the upward frictional force $(f_s)$.
The normal force $(N)$ exerted by the wall on the block is equal to the applied horizontal force,so $N = 10\,N$.
The maximum static frictional force is given by $f_{s,max} = \mu N$,where $\mu = 0.2$ is the coefficient of friction.
Thus,$f_{s,max} = 0.2 \times 10\,N = 2\,N$.
Since the block is held stationary,the weight $W$ must be equal to the frictional force: $W = f_s = 2\,N$.

$A$ thin spherical conducting shell of radius $R$ has a charge $q$. Another charge $Q$ is placed at the centre of the shell. The electrostatic potential at a point $P$ at a distance $R/2$ from the centre of the shell is
A
$\frac{2Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}$
B
$\frac{2Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R} - \frac{2q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}$
C
$\frac{2Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R} + \frac{q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}$
D
$\frac{(q + Q)}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R} \cdot \frac{2}{R}$

Solution

(C) The potential at point $P$ inside the shell is the sum of the potential due to the charge $Q$ at the centre and the potential due to the charge $q$ on the shell.
$1$. The potential due to charge $Q$ at a distance $r = R/2$ is given by $V_Q = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{Q}{R/2} = \frac{2Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}$.
$2$. The potential due to the spherical shell of charge $q$ at any point inside it (including the centre) is constant and equal to the potential at its surface,which is $V_q = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{q}{R}$.
$3$. The total potential at point $P$ is $V_P = V_Q + V_q = \frac{2Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R} + \frac{q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}$.

$A$ horizontal force of $10\, N$ is necessary to just hold a block stationary against a wall. The coefficient of friction between the block and the wall is $0.2$. The weight of the block is ........ $N$.
Question diagram
A
$2$
B
$20$
C
$50$
D
$100$

Solution

(A) Given: Horizontal force,$F = 10\, N$ and coefficient of friction between the block and the wall,$\mu = 0.2$.
For the block to remain stationary against the wall,the horizontal force $F$ provides the normal reaction $R$ on the block.
Therefore,$R = F = 10\, N$.
The frictional force $f$ acting upwards balances the weight $W$ of the block acting downwards.
Thus,$W = f = \mu R$.
Substituting the values,$W = 0.2 \times 10 = 2\, N$.
Hence,the weight of the block is $2\, N$.

The work done in placing a charge of $8 \times 10^{-18} \text{ C}$ on a condenser of capacity $100 \mu\text{F}$ is:
A
$16 \times 10^{-32} \text{ J}$
B
$3.1 \times 10^{-26} \text{ J}$
C
$4 \times 10^{-10} \text{ J}$
D
$32 \times 10^{-32} \text{ J}$

Solution

(D) The work done $(W)$ in charging a capacitor is given by the formula: $W = \frac{Q^2}{2C}$.
Given:
Charge $(Q)$ = $8 \times 10^{-18} \text{ C}$
Capacitance $(C)$ = $100 \mu\text{F} = 100 \times 10^{-6} \text{ F} = 10^{-4} \text{ F}$.
Substituting the values into the formula:
$W = \frac{(8 \times 10^{-18})^2}{2 \times 10^{-4}}$
$W = \frac{64 \times 10^{-36}}{2 \times 10^{-4}}$
$W = 32 \times 10^{-32} \text{ J}$.

A
$76$
B
$78$
C
$82$
D
$74$

Solution

(C) For each $\alpha$ decay,the atomic number $Z$ decreases by $2$.
For each $\beta^-$ decay,the atomic number $Z$ increases by $1$.
Counting the emissions from the given sequence:
Total number of $\alpha$ particles emitted $= 8$.
Total number of $\beta^-$ particles emitted $= 6$.
Initial atomic number $Z_i = 92$.
The final atomic number $Z_f$ is given by:
$Z_f = Z_i - 2(\text{number of } \alpha) + 1(\text{number of } \beta^-)$
$Z_f = 92 - 2(8) + 1(6)$
$Z_f = 92 - 16 + 6$
$Z_f = 82$.

$1$. Potential due to charge $Q$ at distance $r = R/2$ is $V_Q = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{Q}{R/2} = \frac{2Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R}$.
$2$. Potential due to charge $q$ on the shell at any point inside the shell (including the centre) is constant and equal to the potential at the surface: $V_q = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{q}{R}$.

C
$\frac{2Q}{4\pi\varepsilon_0 R} - \frac{2q}{4\pi\varepsilon_0 R}$
D
$\frac{2Q}{4\pi\varepsilon_0 R} + \frac{q}{4\pi\varepsilon_0 R}$

Solution

(D) The potential at any point inside a spherical conducting shell is constant and equal to the potential at its surface.
Given,charge on the shell is $q$ and its radius is $R$.
The potential due to the shell at any point inside (including the centre and at distance $R/2$) is $V_1 = \frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_0} \frac{q}{R}$.
The potential due to the point charge $Q$ placed at the centre at a distance $r = R/2$ is $V_2 = \frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_0} \frac{Q}{R/2} = \frac{2Q}{4\pi\varepsilon_0 R}$.
The total electrostatic potential at point $P$ is $V = V_1 + V_2$.
Therefore,$V = \frac{q}{4\pi\varepsilon_0 R} + \frac{2Q}{4\pi\varepsilon_0 R} = \frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_0 R} (q + 2Q)$.

$A$ horizontal force of $10\,N$ is necessary to just hold a block stationary against a wall. The coefficient of friction between the block and wall is $0.2$. The weight of the block is ........ $N$.
Question diagram

Solution

(D) For the block to be held stationary against the wall,the downward gravitational force (weight $W$) must be balanced by the upward frictional force $(f)$.
The normal force $(N)$ exerted by the wall on the block is equal to the applied horizontal force,so $N = 10\,N$.
The maximum static frictional force is given by $f = \mu N$,where $\mu = 0.2$ is the coefficient of friction.
Thus,$f = 0.2 \times 10\,N = 2\,N$.
Since the block is stationary,$W = f = 2\,N$.

$A$ spring of spring constant $5 \times 10^3 \, N/m$ is stretched initially by $5 \, cm$ from the unstretched position. Then the work required to stretch it further by another $5 \, cm$ is .............. $N-m$.
A
$6.25$
B
$12.50$
C
$18.75$
D

Solution

(C) The work done in stretching a spring from an initial extension $x_1$ to a final extension $x_2$ is given by the formula: $W = \frac{1}{2} k (x_2^2 - x_1^2)$.
Given:
Spring constant $k = 5 \times 10^3 \, N/m$.
Initial extension $x_1 = 5 \, cm = 5 \times 10^{-2} \, m$.
Final extension $x_2 = 5 \, cm + 5 \, cm = 10 \, cm = 10 \times 10^{-2} \, m$.
Substituting the values:
$W = \frac{1}{2} \times (5 \times 10^3) \times [(10 \times 10^{-2})^2 - (5 \times 10^{-2})^2]$
$W = 2500 \times [100 \times 10^{-4} - 25 \times 10^{-4}]$
$W = 2500 \times [75 \times 10^{-4}]$
$W = 2500 \times 0.0075 = 18.75 \, N-m$.

$A$ simple pendulum is executing simple harmonic motion with a time period $T$. If the length of the pendulum is increased by $21\%$,the percentage increase in the time period of the pendulum of increased length is ..... $\%$
A
$10$
B
$21$
C
$30$
D
$50$

Solution

(A) The time period of a simple pendulum is given by $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{\ell}{g}}$,which implies $T \propto \sqrt{\ell}$.
Let the initial length be $\ell_1 = \ell$ and the initial time period be $T_1 = T$.
The new length is $\ell_2 = \ell + 0.21\ell = 1.21\ell$.
The new time period $T_2$ is given by $\frac{T_2}{T_1} = \sqrt{\frac{\ell_2}{\ell_1}} = \sqrt{\frac{1.21\ell}{\ell}} = \sqrt{1.21} = 1.1$.
Thus,$T_2 = 1.1T_1$.
The percentage increase in the time period is $\frac{T_2 - T_1}{T_1} \times 100 = \frac{1.1T_1 - T_1}{T_1} \times 100 = 0.1 \times 100 = 10\%$.

Curie temperature is the temperature above which
A
a ferromagnetic material becomes paramagnetic
B
a paramagnetic material becomes diamagnetic
C
a ferromagnetic material becomes diamagnetic
D
a paramagnetic material becomes ferromagnetic

Solution

(A) The Curie temperature $(T_C)$ is a characteristic property of ferromagnetic materials.
At temperatures below the Curie temperature,the magnetic moments in a ferromagnetic material are aligned due to exchange interaction,resulting in spontaneous magnetization.
As the temperature increases,thermal agitation disrupts this alignment.
When the temperature exceeds the Curie temperature $(T > T_C)$,the thermal energy becomes sufficient to overcome the exchange interaction,causing the material to lose its spontaneous magnetization and behave as a paramagnetic material.
Therefore,above the Curie temperature,a ferromagnetic material becomes paramagnetic.
