SECTION – II (Paragraph Type)
This section contains 6 multiple choice questions relating to three paragraphs with two questions on each
paragraph. Each question has 4 choices (A), (B), (C) and (D), out of which ONLY ONE is correct.
Paragraph for Questions 9 and 10
The general motion of a rigid body can be considered to be a combination of (i) a motion of its centre of
mass about an axis, and (ii) its motion about an instantaneous axis passing through the centre of mass. These
axes need not be stationary. Consider, for example, a thin uniform disc welded (rigidly fixed) horizontally at
its rim to a massless stick, as shown in the figure. When the disc-stick system is rotated about the origin on a
horizontal frictionless plane with angular speed ω, the motion at any instant can be taken as a combination of
(i) a rotation of the centre of mass of the disc about the z-axis, and (ii) a rotation of the disc through an
instantaneous vertical axis passing through its centre of mass (as is seen from the changed orientation of
points P and Q). Both these motions have the same angular speed ω in this chase.
Now consider two similar systems as shown in the figure : Case (a) the disc with its face vertical and parallel
to x-y plane; Case (b) the disc with its face making an angle of 45º with x-y plane and its horizontal diameter
parallel to x-axis. In both the cases, the disc is welded at point P, and the systems are rotated with constant
angular speed ω about the z-axis.

correct ?
(A) It is vertical for both the cases (a) and (b)
(B) It is vertical for case (a); and is at 45º to the x-z plane and lies in the plane of the disc for case (b)
(C) It is horizontal for case (a); and is at 45º to the x-z plane and is normal to the plane of the disc for case (b)
(D) It is vertical for case (a); and is at 45º to the x-z plane and is normal to the plane of the disc for case (b)
Ans. [A]
Sol. In both the cases, the instantaneous axis will be along z-axis i.e. along vertical direction
Q.10 Which of the following statements regarding the angular speed about the instantaneous axis (passing through
the centre of mass) is correct ?
explained the observed electron energy spectrum. Assuming the anti neutrino (v e ) to be massless and
possessing negligible energy, and the neutron to be at rest, momentum and energy conservation principles are
applied. From this calculation, the maximum kinetic energy of the electron is 0.8 × 106 eV. The kinetic
energy carried by the proton is only the recoil energy.
Q.11 If the anti-neutrino had a mass of 3eV/c2 (where c is the speed of light) instead of zero mass, what should be
the range of the kinetic energy, K, of the electron ?
(A) 0 ≤ K ≤ 0.8 × 106 eV (B) 3.0 eV ≤ K ≤ 0.8 × 106 eV
(C) 3.0 eV ≤ K < 0.8 × 106 eV (D) 0 ≤ K ≤ 0.8 × 106 eV
Ans. [D]
Sol. Total energy remain conserved. Energy is shared by antineutrino, proton and electron.
KE of e– is maximum when antineutrino does not share any KE.

Sol. bn = 1 + n – 2C1 + n – 3C2 + n – 4C3 + n – 5C4 + n – 6C5 + ……..
cn = 1 + n – 3C1 + n – 4C2 + n – 5C3 + n – 6C4 + ……..
an = 1 + n – 1C1 + n – 2C2 + n – 3C3 + n – 4C4 + ……..
a17 = 1 + 16C1 + 15C2 + 14C3 + 13C4 + 12C5 + 11C6 + 10C7 + 9C8 + 8C9
a16 = 1 + 15C1 + 14C2 + 13C3 + 12C4 + 11C5 + 10C6 + 9C7 + 8C8
a15 = 1 + 14C1 + 13C2 + 12C3 + 11C4 + 10C5 + 9C6 + 8C7
a17 = a16 + a15 so A is correct.

If f is continuous, then which of the following hold(s) for all n?
(A) an–1 – bn–1 = 0 (B) an – bn = 1
(C) an – bn+1 = 1 (D) an–1 – bn = –1
Ans. [B, D]
Sol. At x = 2n
x → 2n+ an + sin 2nπ = an
x → 2n– bn + cos 2nπ = bn + 1
For continuous an = bn + 1
At x = 2n + 1
