Solution:
Let final temperature be T
Then
⇒ 150 × (T – 25) =
100
× 4200 (50– T )
1000

⇒ 150 × (T – 25) = 420(50 – T)

⇒ 150T – 150 × 25 = 420 × 50 – 420T
⇒ 570T = 420 × 50 + 150 × 25
2475
T = = 43.42° C

(12) Answer : (2)

Solution:

⇒ The correct variation is as shown.

(13) Answer : (2)

Solution:
As the initial velocity is zero hence the viscous force is zero. Now as the speed increases the viscous force increases
and attains a constant value as body attains terminal velocity.

(14) Answer : (1)

Solution:
When a body attains the terminal velocity then net force acting on the body is zero and viscous force and buoyant force
balances weight of body.

(30) Answer : (2)

Solution:

2 × 40 + 3 × 30 = 5 × x
80 + 90 = 5x ⇒ x = 170

x = 34 cm
on scale = 55 + 34 = 89 cm
(31) Answer : (2)
Solution:
Using the principle of moments,
2(35 + x) = 4(25 – x)
⇒ 35 + x = 50 – 2x
⇒ x = 5 cm
i.e., fulcrum should be shifted by 5 cm mark i.e., new position will be at 55 cm mark.

(32) Answer : (3)

Solution:

(41) Answer : (2)

Solution:
As the measured value is 4.20 cm, the least count must be 0.01 cm = 0.1 mm
For vernier caliper with MSD = 1 mm and 9 MSD = 10 VSD
Least count = MSD – VSD
= 1
MSD

cm = 0.01 cm

(42) Answer : (3)

Solution:
MSD = N cm
n VSD = (n – 1) MSD
⇒ VSD = (n – 1)/n × MSD = (n – 1)/n × N cm
Least count
= MSD – VSD
= N – (n – 1)/n × N
= N/n

(43) Answer : (3)

Solution:
Reading = 6.4 + 4 × 0.01 cm = 6.44 cm

(44) Answer : (2)

Solution:
MSD = 1/10 = 0.1 cm
20 VSD = 18 MSD
⇒ VSD = MSD = 18

× 0.1 = 0.09 cm
18

20

Least count = MSD – VSD = 0.1 – 0.09 = 0.01 cm

(45) Answer : (4)

Solution:
Length of 1 main scale division = 1/5 = 0.2 cm
Main scale reading = 2.4 cm
Coinciding vernier scale division = 6th
Least count = MSD – VSD
=

= 0.02 cm
Now, length = Main scale reading + Coinciding vernier scale division × LC
