Paragraph: A tank is filled with a liquid of density up to a height H. Water flows out from the tank
through a nozzle of uniform cross-sectional area ‘a’. The exit of the nozzle makes angle 45 with the
horizontal. At a given instant, the tank rests in equilibrium against a compressed spring of force constant k.
The top of the tank is open to the atmosphere of pressure P0 . The cross-sectional area of the tank is very large

Answer :A
Solution : Since all charge lies in x-y plane, hence direction of electric field at point P should be in x-y
plane
Also y-axis is an equipotential (zero potential) line. Hence direction of electric field at all point of y-axis
is should be normal to y-axis.
The direction of electric field at P should be in x-y plane and normal to y-axis. Hence direction of
electric field is along positive x direction

Paragraph: A dense collection of equal number of electrons and positive ions is called neutral plasma.
Certain solids containing fixed positive ions surrounded by free electrons can be treated as neutral plasma.
s
Let ‘N’ be the number density of free electrons, each of mass ‘m’, When the electrons are subjected to an
er
electric field, they are displaced relatively away from the heavy positive ions. If the electric field becomes
pp
zero, the electrons begin to oscillate about the positive ions with a natural angular frequency ' p ' which is
called the plasma frequency. To sustain the oscillations, a time varying electric field needs to be applied that

has an angular frequency , where a part of the energy is absorbed and part of it is reflected. As

Paragraph: When subatomic particles undergo reactions, energy is conserved, but mass is not necessarily
conserved. However, a particle’s mass ‘contributes’ to its total energy, in accordance with Einstein’s famous
equation, E mc 2 . In this equation, E denotes the energy a particle carries because of its mass. The particle
The table above summarizes some data from a single neutron decay. An MeV (mega electron volt) is a unit of
energy. Column 2 shows the rest mass of the particle times the speed of light squared.

undetected third particle ?

total heat required by the body from a heater is
A. 3.6 J B. 0.364 J C. 8 J D. 4 J
Answer :C
Solution : During heating process from 380 C to 40 0 C in 10 min, the body will lose heat in the
surrounding which will be exactly equal to the heat lost when it cooled from 400 C to 380 C in 10 min,
which is equal to ms 2 2 4 J . During heating process heat required by the body ms 4 J .
Therefore, total heat required = 8J
