1.b. This is a good example of a passage in which the
questions are harder to answer than the passage is to
comprehend; however, careful reading and some
good strategy will pull you through. Question -1
essentially asks for the velocity of a wave if
wavelength and frequency are known. As a
IIT-JEE student, the equation, frequency (f or v) =
velocity (v) / wavelength ( λ ), hopefully jumps into
your head. Also, if the frequency of D# is 311/sec in
one octave, then as the passage states, if should be
PAGE
double that in an octave lower. Now, it is time to
plug all this in:
f = v/ λ
622/sec = v/0.25 m
v- (6.22 x 102) (2.5 x 10-1)
v = 15 x 10-1 m sec-1 or choice B
www.aieeepage.com
2.d. The passage states that the lowest frequency of a
string is the first harmonic and that the next lowest
frequency is the second harmonic, or first overtone,
and so forth. To make it easier, let us keep track of
this by noting the nth harmonic is the (n-1) th
overtone. Now, consider nodes. Nodes appear along
intervals equal to half the wavelength; this is simply
from looking at the sketch of a wave (Think of a
sinusoid). Therefore, the 1st harmonic will have 1/2
of a wavelength, with one node at one end and
another at the other end. The 2nd harmonic will have
an entire wavelength, with one node at one end, one
node in the middle, and one node at the other end.
Quickly you realize that the 1st harmonic has 2
nodes, the 2nd harmonic has 3 nodes, and the nth
harmonic has (n+1) nodes. Finally, notice that an
antinode occurs betwen two nodes, so for every two
nodes, there is one antinode. Adding this to our quick
survey, we see that the nth harmonic has n
antinodes. Making a very quick list, using the an-
swer choices (note: on testday, you would only have
PAGE
needed to do the bare minimum of this table to
answer the question correctly):
Choice D is the only answer that accurately describes
the physics.
3.c. The best way to approach this question is to eliminate
the wrong answers. Choice A is not true since an
increase in density is related to increased mass, thus
www.aieeepage.com
increased weight (mass x gravity). Choice B is out,
since as we saw in question 2, the wavelength can
V = (1 +
be an integer multiple of length, leading to infinitely M
many wavelengths. Chice Ds is incorrect since f=
v/λ , regardless of how that frequency was induced
(i.e., by changing length or density or whatever).
Finally, choice C is corect, since wavelength, and
therefore frequency, depend on string length. At
some point, a desired frequency may be so low that
the length required would be enormous. For
PAGE - A Premier Institution for IIT - JEE & AIEEE at the National Level
example, if a piano were manufactured relying only
on alterations of string length, the lowest note would
correspond to a string that is 7.5 meters (over 24
feet)!
4.d. This question requires nothing more that analysis of
equation 1. Note that the tension in the string is from
the weight of the block. Let us look at the equation,
plugging in for p = mass of string/length of string
and T= mass of block x gravtity.
( t / ρ)1/ 2 (mass of block × 9.8 m/s 2 )1 / 2 × (Length of string)1/2
f= =
λ λ × (mass of string)1/2
Now, in order to double the frequency, we must
quadruple any of the terms in the numerator, have
the wavelength, or deduce the mass of the string to
1/4 its original. Only choice D does any of these
things.
5.c. Do not get intimidated by this seemingly complex
question. As.......... students, the words collision and
inelastic should make your mouth water, or at elast
make you think of conservation of momentum.
Recall that momentum is conserved along a direction
(e.g. x- corrdinate, y-coordinate. Therefore, if we
are looking for the initial velocity of the particle we
only care about the x-coordinate, since its original
velocity was purely horizontal. Let us set up the
equation for an inelastic conservation of energy.
M P VP + M S VS = (M P + M S )Vf
But, remember that the portion of the string involved
in the collisionis travelling vertically, since the wave
is transverse). Therefore, its initial horizontal
velocity is zero.
M P VP = (M P + M S )Vf
Solving for VP
(M P + M S )Vf M
VP = = (1 + s )Vf
MP Mp
Also, note that the mass of the portionof string
involved in the collision is the only part that counts,
and that this mass is given by the string’s linear
density x the length of the portion. Additonally, the
final velocity is the same for the string and particle,
since they ae stuck together in an inelastic collision.
So,
(ρ × L )
)V p f
p
We need to know the length of the portion of string
contributing to the collision, the linear density of
the string, the mass of the particle, and the final
velocity of the particle choice C.

you increase the size of the rotor blade, that will
create a larger cross sectional area thus increase
force. Since the rotor is connected to the mounting
pole at a small point, the resulting pressure on the

minimizing reflective losses would also increase the
amount of photons penetrating the surface of the
solar panel.
48.d. The question states that the photonic energy must
be sufficient to liberate electrons. It also implies
that energy in excess of this would create heat.
Choice (d) allows for the widest range of energy
conversion with minimal loss of conductivity to heat.
(a) Does not address the issue of heat. (b) The
question states that the best photovoltaic substances

is below visible in frequency, and thus would not
have sufficient energy. These photons are relatively
inconsequential. Even if they did contribute to heat
generation in the substrate, it would not be a better
solution than choice (d) would be. (c) This reduces
the maximum potential of energy conversion.

49.b. We can use the principal of conservation of energy
because the question instructs us to neglect air
resistance. Therefore :
E = K + U and K final should equal U initial at the
point of contact with the generator Since the units
of Power are Joules/Second we need to modify
U initial to be the rate of potential energy produced
by 1kg/secof water. Also don’t forget to take the
mechanical efficiency into account.

101.b. Hydrocarbons of low molecular weight have very
low boiling points, due to their weak intermolecular
forces. However, at much higher pressures, the
hydrocarbons will boil at temperatures that are higher
and easier to deal with in the laboratory. Once a few
data points have been determined, a plot can be made
of boiling point vs. pressure. This graph can then be
extrapolated 1 atmosphere, giving the normal boiling
point.
Choice A) is incorrect because lowering the
temperature will not affect the boiling point the
pressure stays at 1 atm. choice (C) is incorrct because
PAGE
mixing the compound with another compound may
raise the boiling point to a more manageable level,
but it will not give an exact determination of the
boiling point of the desired compound. Choice (D)
is incorrect because lowering the pressure will lower
the boiling point, making a determination even more
difficult. Again, the answer is choice (B).
www.aieeepage.com
102.a. By inspection, you can eliminate choices (C) and
(D) these tell you that the boiling points of silanes
are lower than those of hydrocarbons, and this is
untrue from the tables. When deciding between
choices (A) and (B), the best strategy is to consult
the periodic table. Silicon appears below carbon in
the periodic table, so it must be heavier and have
more electron density. This means that the
compounds that it forms will have stronger
intermolecular forces, because these depend on the
polarizability of the molecule. When a molecule has
a large electron cloud, it will exhibit more van der
Wasls forces than a molecule with less electron
density. Again, the answer is choice (A).
103.c. This question asks about two quantum numbers: the
principal quantum number, n and the Azimuthal
quantum number, &ell;. The value for n is the
number of the energy shell - the outermost electron
in silicon is in the 3rd energy level, so the value for
ell; ranges from 0 to n-&ell;; in this case, it may
have values of 0, 1 or 2. 0 corresponds to an s orbital,
PAGE
&ell; correponds to a orbital and 2 corresponds to a
d orbital. Since the outermost electron in silicon is
in a 3p orbital, its quantum numbers are n=3 and
&ell;=2 choice (C).
104.b. As stated in the passage, the Si4H10 is actually a
mixture of two isomers: branched-chain and straight-
chain. since they contain the same overall molecular
www.aieeepage.com
formula, these two isomers difer only in their
112.a. H   → 2H ( Nascent hydrogen)
structure, so they will have different boiling points.
Therefore, you can immediately eliminate choice
(D). Next, eliminate choice (A). There is no
hydrogen bonding involved in silane compound
since there are no electronegative elements present,
so choice (A) is incorrect. Now, you have two
choices left (B) and (C). These both involve van der
Waals interactions, so the one with stronger
intermolecular bonds will have the higher boiling
PAGE - A Premier Institution for IIT - JEE & AIEEE at the National Level
point. Straight-chain isomers can pack more tightly,
so they will have more significant van der Waals
interactions, leading to a higher boiling point.
Therefore, the answr is (B).
105.d. As with all Roman numeral statement questions, you
should examine the answer choices to see which
statements appear most frequently and evaluate those
first. If they appear equally, eliminate as you go
along. In this case, each statement appears twice, so
begin with statement I. This statement is untrue, since
a compound has iniform structure; individual
molecules of the same substance are identical.
Therefore, you can eliminate choices (A) and (C).
Is the second statement true? Yes, each additional
compound does act as a solute to raise the boiling
point of a solution, so this will partly account for
the range. Now, evaluate the third statement to see
whether the answer will be (B) or (D). Since the
solution is a mixture of similar compounds, what
boils off will not be pure, they will form azeotropes
since they do not differ significantly.

necessary that the states differ by two units only.

Hydrogen cannot reduce Al 2 O 3 because Al-O
bonds are very strong. Further, finely divided
palladium adsorbs large amount of hydrogen because
of its large surface area. But, nascent hydrogen is
best obtained by treating Na with absolute alcohol
not with ordinary alcohol.
113.b. Measurements of the cell e.m.f.s are a source of
information on the ∆s, ∆G and ∆H of a given
17 of 20
 reaction.
∆G m = − FE and (∂ ∆G/∂ T) p = −∆S
Therefore, the variation of the cell e.m. f with
temperature is
(∂ E/∂ T) p = ∆Sm / F
Thus the measure of the gradient of the e.m.f. of a
cell with respect to temperature gives the value of
the entropy change of the cell reaction (as
demonstrated by the above equation).
114.b. Osmotic pressure (k) where k = MRT and M is the
molarity. R is the ideal gas constant and T is the
temperature in degrees kelvin. The concentration

115.a. Use the ideal gas law, PV = nRT. If the volume is
cut in half, then the number of moles will be cut in
half. In addition, the pressure is dropped to 90% if
what it was, so the numbe rof moles should drop by
this factor as well. With the temperature constant,
this gives a new number of moles which is 45% of
20 grams, or 9 grams.

greater than ideal volume. Real gas molecules exert
attractive forces on one another slowing them and

148.c. Every calcium on (Ca 2+) in solution will be
exchanged for two sodium ions (Na1+) in order to
preserve charge neutrality. Therefore, choice A is
true and is thus an incorrect choice. Freezing point,
boiling point, and osmotic pressure are all colligative
properties which depend upon the number of moles
of particles in solution choice B is incorrect because
more ions in solution (caused by adding twice as
many sodium ions) will add to the freezing point
depression. Choice D is similarly incorrect because
more ions in solution will lead to boiling point
elevation. Choice C is the correct choice because
more ions in solution will actually raise rather than
lower the osmotic pressure of the solution.
149.a. Methanol is freely soluble in water, so it will affect
the boiling point of water solutions. However, it does
not ionize to any appreciable amount in solution,
and thus will not conduct electricity. Choices B, C
and D are incorrect because acetic acid, sodium
chloride, and sodium benzoate will all ionize in
solution, and will therefore conduct electricity in
solution. It should be noted that acetic acid, being a
weak acid, will only ionize about 1% in water,but
will still carry a weak charge.
150.d. Liquid water will always have some ions in solution
because of its autoionization process. Choice A,
which involves a lowering of the temperature, may
lead to a decrease in the value of the equilibrium
constant of the autoionization process, but will not
eliminate the presence of ions entirely.
