1. Two bodies A and B are charged with equal magnitude of charge but A with positive charge and B
with negative. If MA and MB are masses before charging and MA1 and MB1 are the masses after
charging, then (mo is some constant mass)
a) net charge per unit volume near P is more than net charge per unit volume near Q
b) net charge per unit volume near Q is less than net charge per unit volume
c) current per unit area near P is more than current per unit area near Q
d) current per unit area P is less than current per unit area near Q
3. Vessels A and B are made of conducting material. Both contain water. Vessel A floats in B. Vessel
B is now heated at a uniform rate, then
Sol. As heat is supplied to vessel B, the water present in B takes the heat from which it is transferred to
water in vessel A.
The boiling point of water is 100 0C after which its temperature remains constant.
As the water in vessel in B starts boiling, it stops transferring heat to water in vessel A.
So, water in vessel A reaches 100 0C temperature, but doesn’t boil.
4. A body thrown vertically up reaches maximum height and returns. Its acceleration is
Sol. Acceleration due to gravity acts always towards the centre of the earth.
For smaller heights (h<<R – radius of the earth), it can be taken to be vertically down.
It does not depend on the direction of motion of the body. Whether the body is moving vertically
down or up, acceleration due to gravity always acts downwards
5. Velocity of a particle moving along a straight line varies with time as shown in figure. Net forces
acting on the particle are F1, F2, F3, F4 and F5 in the intervals OA, AB, BC, CD and DE
respectively. Identify the correct statement.
6. A wooden block (W) is suspended by a cord from a heavy steel ball (B). The entire system is
dropped from certain height. Neglecting air resistance, the tension in the cord
Sol. Acceleration due to gravity is same for every freely falling body
The wooden block and the steel ball are falling under gravity with same acceleration (g).
So the tension in the cord connecting them is zero.
7. A circus performer of weight W is standing on a wire as shown in figure. The tension in the wire is
Sol. As seen in the diagram, tension in the string can be resolved into two rectangular components.
T cos components on either side cancel each other.
T sin components on either side act in upward direction to support the weight (W) of the person.
𝑊 𝑊/2
2T sin = W T = 2 sin 𝜃 = sin 𝜃
As is small, sin is very small, the tension in the wire is much greater than W/2.
8. In the following diagram, O is a point object and I is the image formed by a concave mirror.
Identify the diagram in which, position of image I is nearly correct.
a) b)
c) d)
Sol. In the options, the object is represented with black dot and the image with circle
The object is placed between focal point (F) and pole of the mirror.
So, it’s image should be formed behind the mirror and it should be magnified.
9. Following diagram shows refraction of parallel beam of light through a spherical surface. Identify
the correct ray diagram.
a) b)
c) d)
Sol. As light travels from denser medium to rarer medium, it bends away from normal
As light travels from rarer medium to denser medium, it bends towards normal
In the second diagram, as the light rays are entering the denser medium, they are bending away
from normal. So, second one is the correct diagram.
10. In the diagram, M1 and M2 are two plane mirrors at right angles to each other. O is a luminous point
object. Consider two images formed due to first reflection at M1 and M2. The area of the triangle
formed by the object and two images is
11. A fisherman of height h is standing on the bank of a lake. A fish in the water perceives his height as
h1 , then
12. Object A is completely immersed in water. True weight of object A is WA. Weight of water with
beaker is WB. Let B be the buoyant force. W1 and W2 are scale readings of spring balance and
weighing scale respectively
a) W1 = W A b) W1 = WA + B c) W2 = W B d) W2 = WB + B
13. A point object O is kept at origin. When a concave mirror M1 is placed at x = 6 cm, image is
formed at infinity. When M1 is replaced by another concave mirror M2 at same position, image is
formed at x = 30 cm, then ratio of the focal length of M1 to that of M2 is
Sol. Image is formed at infinity for the first mirror : so focal length f1 = 6 cm
Image distance for second mirror : v = 24 cm (behind the mirror : virtual image)
Object distance for the second mirror : u = 6 cm

Sol. Melting point is defined as the constant temperature at which the solid phase of a substance gets
converted into liquid phase.
During melting, the solid and liquid phases remain in equilibrium till the complete solid turns into
liquid.
The heat energy supplied to the substance during melting is converted into increased potential
energy of the molecules of the substance known as latent heat.
15. U tube contains some amount of mercury. Immiscible liquid X is poured in left arm and immiscible
liquid Y is poured in the right arm. Length of liquid X is 8 cm; length of liquid Y is 10 cm and
upper levels of X and Y are equal. If density of Y is 3.36 g/cc and density of mercury is13.6 g/cc,
then the density of X is
16. The effective resistance between A and D in the circuit shown in the adjacent figure is
a) 5 b) 10 c) 15 d) 20
17. Three bulbs B1, B2 and B3 having rated powers 100 W, 60 W and 60 W at 250 V are connected in a
circuit as shown in figure. If W1, W2 and W3 are the output powers of the bulbs B1, B2 and B3
respectively, then
18. Rod AB of radius 2r is joined with rod BC of radius r. They are of same material and are of same
length. The combination carries a current I. choose the correct statement.
a) VAB = 4 VBC
b) current per unit area in AB and BC is equal
c) RAB is greater than RBC
d) VBC = 4 VAB
Sol. Both the rods are same material and same length. The rods are connected in series
(same current flows)
𝜌𝑙 𝜌𝑙 1 𝜌𝑙
Resistance of AB : RAB = = =
𝐴 𝜋 4𝑟 2 4 𝜋 𝑟2
𝜌𝑙 𝜌𝑙 𝜌𝑙
Resistance of BC : RBC = 𝐴
= 𝜋 𝑟2 = 𝜋 𝑟2 = 4 RAB
As same current is flowing through both the rods, V = I R : VAB = I RAB / VBC = I RBC
