03. Write down the ideal gas equation by clearly denoting all the symbols.
A
(a) Two identical glass bulbs A and B each having volume of 100cm3 and filled
with dry air are connected by a glass tube having cross-sectional area of 1cm2 40cm
and length of 100cm and the whole system is at room temperature. This
20cm
system is kept vertical so that bulb B is below and bulb A is above. At this
state, a 20cm length of mercury column is found to be in the center of the
40cm
tube. When this system is tilted to horizontal mercury column moved 20cm
B
from its initial position.
i. What is the ratio between the gas moles in bulb A and B?
ii. Calculate the pressure inside the tubes (in cm Hg), when the system is kept horizontal.
iii. When the system is kept horizontal, additional 5 moles of gas is inserted into bulb A without changing
the temperature. Now the mercury column is found to be in the center. Calculate the moles of gas in
the bulb A initially.

(b) A cylinder of volume 0.02m3 comprises a gas under a pressure of 2×106 Nm-2. This cylinder is used to
blow small, inelastic balloons made by thin plastic. These balloons are capable of shrinking completely
and each of them has a maximum volume of 5×10-3 m-3. Assume that, A such balloon is filled with gas
until it reaches its maximum volume under atmospheric pressure of 1×105 Nm-2. Calculate the number
of balloons that can be blown using this cylinder?

04. A person’s eye socket has a depth of 25mm. He has a visual range from 25cm to infinity. Answer the
following questions regarding to him.
(a) Sketch a ray diagram to indicate the position of image formed by the eye lens for a point object placed
20cm from the eye. Why this object appears blurry to this person?
(b) Cornea has a fixed focal length of 3cm. Find the range from and to which the focal length of eye lens
varies?
(c) Due to a defect in eye, the depth of eye socket is permanently reduced to 2mm. However, the other
aspects of eye remain unchanged. In order to read a book at 25cm, He is planning to change the focal
length of his cornea by laser therapy. Calculate the value to which the focal length of cornea has to
be changed?

points as separate points.

down an expression for d0 in terms of a and d?

its headlights on. At a particular moment, both headlights appear to be separate lights. What is the
distance to the vehicle from this person at this moment? (Separation between the headlights is 1m)

the lens he should wear? (Assume that he is wearing lens near to the eye)

05.
(a) Contrast the progressive and stationary waves formed in a string based on the following features.

sheet is adjusted to 3000Hz, stationary wave formed inside the tube. The distance between adjacent
nodes was found to be 5cm in this case. When the frequency is reduced gradually, the wave form
disappears. However, when the frequency is adjusted to 2500Hz, once again stationary wave formed.
