Question 21. When the momentum of a proton is changed by an amount P0, the corresponding change in the de-Broglie wavelength is found to be 0.25%. Then, the original momentum of the proton was
  1.    p0
  2.    100p0
  3.    400p0
  4.    4p0
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 400p0
:
C
λ1pΔpp=ΔλλΔpp=Δλλp0p=0.25100=1400p=400p0.
Note: The above method is applicable only whenthe changes in wavelength or momenta are small.
Question 22. An external electric field is applied on a metal plate, high enough to force the electrons to eject out of the surface. Is this an example of Photo electric effect?
  1.    True
  2.    False
  3.    2.28 eV
  4.    0 eV
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B
There are various ways to transfer the sufficient energy to free electrons in a metal and make them leave the surface.
(a) Thermionic emission: The metal surface is heated until the electrons gain sufficient energy to come out.

(b) Field emission: High electric field is applied across the metal to pull out the electrons
(c) Secondary emission: A high energy electron is made to hit the plate thereby transferring sufficient energy to other electrons to come out.

(d) Photo electric emission is another way in which light with sufficient energy is shone on a plate and the electrons absorb this energy to eject out of the metal surface.
Question 23. In the Photoelectric setup, I would like to achieve stopping potential by making one of the plates in the setup, positively charged. Which one should I charge positively?
In The Photoelectric Setup, I Would Like To Achieve Stoppin...
  1.    The collector plate
  2.    The emitter plate
  3.    Stopping potential cannot be achieved by making any plate positively charged
  4.    More data is required to make a selection
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> The emitter plate
:
B
In the diagram, light is falling on the left, which is the emitter plate, and the photoelectrons would be collected by the plate on the right, the collector plate. Electrons being negatively charged, will be repelled and slowed down if the collector plate is made negative. or if the emitter plate itself is made positive, electrons coming out will be attracted back to the left, and could, possibly, never make it to the collector plate - thus achieving stopping potential. Hence, (b) is correct.
Question 24. The intensity of light I1 received by the emitter plate in Lenard's photoelectric set-up is changed by moving the source to twice the initial distance. What is the new intensity I2 received by the emitter plate? 
  1.    I2=I1
  2.    I2=0.25 I1
  3.    I2=0.5 I1
  4.    I2=2 I1
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> I2=0.25 I1
:
B
As we have seen earlier, the intensity from a point source decreases as the square of the distance from the source. If intensityI1 was received at a distance r1,andI2atr2 -
Iα1r2I1I2=r22r21=(2r1)2r21=4I2=14I1I2=0.25I1
Question 25. 50 g of copper is heated to increase its temperature by 10C. If the same quantity of heat is given to 10 g of water, the rise in its temperature is:
Specific heat of copper is 420 J kg1 C.
  1.    5∘C
  2.    6∘C
  3.    7∘C
  4.    8∘C
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 5∘C
:
A
Same amount of heat is supplied to copper and water.
mcccΔTc=mwcwΔTw
ΔTw=mcccΔTcmwcw
ΔTw=50×103×420×1010×103×4200
ΔTw=5C
Question 26. We understand 'temperature' as a measure of the 'hotness' or 'coldness' of a body. Which of these properties do you think explicitly depend on the temperature? 
  1.    Density of a liquid 
  2.    length of a metal rod
  3.    pressure exerted by a gas inside a closed chamber
  4.    all of the above
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> all of the above
:
D
Let us look at some real life examples.
(1)Density of water is seen to be 1 kg/m3 only at 40C. At 800C, it is seen to get reduced to 0.971 kg/m3.
(2)A plastic bottle half-filled with water often shrinks when kept inside the refrigerator.
(3)If you keep heating a car tyre, which is made of a certain sturdy rubber, it will explode at some point.
Although it is unscientific to make general statements based on singular observations, we are inclined, at this point, to make the following guesses -
(1)Density of water decreases with increasing temperature
(2)Decreasing temperature shrinks a plastic bottle
(3)Since we can assume the tyre is sturdy and will not leak easily, an explosion will only be due to an increase in the pressure of air inside.
Thus, all the properties listed from (a) to (c) seem to explicitly depend on temperature.
Question 27. Latent heat of ice is 80 calorie/gm. A man melts 60 g of ice by chewing in 1 minute. His power is
  1.    4800 W
  2.    336 W
  3.    1.33 W
  4.    0.75 W
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 336 W
:
B
Work done by man = Heat absorbed by ice = mL = 60 × 80 = 4800 calorie = 20160 J
Power=Wt=2016060=336W
Question 28. The density of a substance at 20C and 120C are 1.1g c.c1 and 1 g c.c1 respecttively. Find the coefficient of cubical expansion of the solid.
  1.    0.001∘C−1
  2.    0.002∘C−1
  3.    0.003∘C−1
  4.    0.004∘C−1
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 0.001∘C−1
:
A
Given: Initial density, d1=1.1gc.c1
Final density, d2=1gc.c1
Initial tempereature, t1=20C
Final temperature, t2=120C
Volumetric expansion of solids can be expressed as,
V2=V1(1+γ(t2t1))
where, V1 is the initial volume, V2 is the final volume, t1 is the initial temperature, t2 is the final temperature and γ is the coefficient of cubical expansion of solid.
We know volume=massdensity
Let d1 be the density at volume V1 and d2 be the density at volume V2
Since mass of the substance, m remains same, we have,
or, md2=md1(1+γ(t2t1))
or,γ=d1d2d2(t2t1)
or,γ=1.111(12020)=0.1100=0.001
γ=0.001C1
Question 29. The freezing point on a thermometer is marked as 20 and the boiling point at as 150. A temperature of 60C on this thermometer will be read as
  1.    40∘
  2.    65∘
  3.    98∘
  4.    110∘
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 98∘
:
C
Temperature on any scale can be converted into other scale by XLFPUFPLFP = Constant for all scales
X2015020=C01000o X = C×130100+20 = 60×130100+20=98
Question 30. A glass of water at room temperature and a hot mug of coffee are placed on two tables inside a closed room. As the coffee cools down, what would happen to the temperature of the water?
  1.    Stays absolutely unaffected, since it is on another table.
  2.    The coffee and water cools down with time.
  3.    The water gets slightly warmer after taking heat from the surrounding air.
  4.    The mug of coffee takes out the heat from the coffee but does not transfer it to the surrounding.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> The water gets slightly warmer after taking heat from the surrounding air.
:
C
Let us assume the room is perfectly closed and no heat is being gained from or lost to the environment outside.
Here we have three bodiesthermally interacting inside the room - the glass of water (initially at room temperature of 23 degree Celsius), the air in the room, and the hot mug of coffee.
Asthe coffee cools down, it slightly increases the hotness of the air in the room. Thus, the room temperature itself increases after some time.This means the glass of water is now slightlycooler than the air around it.
Due to this temperature difference, the water will get slightly warmer until it has the same temperature as the air through whichexchange of heat occur.
