Magnitude of linear charge density on each wire is λ. Then (for unit length of wires) work
mλ2
required to increase the separation between the wires from a to 2a is log e 2. Find m + n ?
nπε0
Ans. 3
Sol. Since, wires have opposite charge, therefore, they attract each other. To increase separation
between the wires, work is to be done against this force of attraction. Let at some instant
separation between the wires be x as shown in figure.
Electric field, E = Flux passing per unit area.

To increase the separation, wires are to be pulled a part by applying an infinitesimally greater
force (F + dF).

motorboat takes one minute to cross the river to the port straight across on the other bank. One
time, due to a motor problem, it was not able to run at full power, and it took four minutes to
cross the river along the same path. If the ratio of later speed of boat to initial speed of boat is

Sol. Let d and c denote the width and speed of the river. Let v0 and v2 be the speeds of the boat
relative to the ground in the two cases, and let 4c = V1red and V2red denote its speed relative to
the water. The task is to find the ratio V2ma /V1rad . In both cases, the component parallel to the
river banks is equal to c. The speeds of the boat relative to the ground in the two cases are v1 =

28. Monochromatic radiation of wavelength λ1 = 3000Å falls on a photocell operating in saturation

mode. The corresponding spectral sensitivity of photocell is J = 4.8 mA/W. When another
monochromatic radiation of wavelength λ2 = 1650Å and power P = 5 mW is incident, it is
found that maximum velocity of photoelectrons increases to n = 2 times. Assuming efficiency
of photo-electron generation per incident photon to be same for both the cases, then
(A) The threshold wavelength for the cell 3600Å
(B) The threshold wavelength for the cell 4125Å
(C) The saturation current in second case is 13.2μA
(D) The saturation current in second case is 11.6μA
(Given, h = 6.6 × 10−34 , Js, c = 3 × 108 ms−1 and e = 1.6 × 10−19 coul.)
Ans. BC

Sol. Maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons is given by Ek = − W0 , where λ is wavelength of
λ
incident radiation and W0 is work function of the surface on which radiation is incident.
∴ Maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted by radiation of wavelength λ1 is given by

mv12 = − W0
2 λ1
hc
or mv12 = 2 (λ − W0 ) …(1)

where m is mass of an electron and v1 is maximum velocity of photoelectrons.

Similarly, for radiation of wavelength λ2 , 2 mv22 = λ − W0 …(2)

But v2 = 2v1 , therefore from equation (2)

But work-function W0 = λ where λ0 is threshold wavelength

∴ λ0 = = 4125 A

In saturation mode, spectral sensitivity with wavelength λ1 = 3000Å is J = 4.8 mA/W or
4.8mC/J. It means when 1 joule radiation of wavelength λ1 = 3000Å is incident, a charge of

Sol. (A) Supposing that the charge per unit length of the inner wire is −λ and using cylindrical `

(C) When the capacitor is connected to a battery, the potential difference between the inner

the capacitor, so that a length L − x of the material remains inside the capacitor, as

Pulling out the material changes the energy stored in the capacitor and thus a force

As ε > ε0 , F < 0
Hence F will tend to decrease x, i.e., F is attractive. Then to hold the dielectric in this

capacitor.

Sol. (a) Let just after collision, velocity of centre of mass of rod is v and angular velocity about
centre of mass is ω.
Applying following three laws:
(i) External force on the system (rod +mass) in horizontal plane along x-axis is zero.
∴ Applying Conservation of Linear Momentum in x-direction.
mv0 = Mv

Ans. 1.0
Sol. Paramagnetic substances are attracted by magnetic fields & diamagnetic substances are
repelled by magnetic field.
Here, O2 ( g) is paramagnetic due to two unpaired electrons present in antibonding orbitals.
Hence it is attracted and deflected downwards. H2 O, p-Nitrophenol and K 4 [Fe(CN)6 are
diamagnetic because they do not have unpaired electron. So, they are repelled and hence
deflected upwards.
