Q1. The number of valence electrons in a good conductor is generally
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

The electron theory states that all matter is composed of atoms and the atoms are composed of smaller particles called protons, electrons, and neutrons. The electrons orbit the nucleus which contains the protons and neutrons. It is the valence electrons that we are most concerned with in electricity. These are the electrons which are easiest to break loose from their parent atom. Normally, conductors have three or less valence electrons; insulators have five or more valence electrons; and semiconductors usually have four valence electrons.

Q2. A bus start from rest with an acceleration of 1 m/sec2. A man who is 48 meter behind the bus with a uniform velocity of 10 m/sec. then the minimum time after which the man will catch the bus is
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Let the distance traveled by the bus when man catch the bus be S meter distance traveled by the man when he catch the bus S'=S+48 meter

Given :

Initial velocity of bus u=0

Initial velocity of man u'=10m/sec Acceleration of Bus=1 m/s2 

Accelerationof Man=0

We will use formula for displacement


By substituting the values in above equation we get,

Displacement of Bus 

Displacement of Man 

By substituting the value of S from eq(1) in eq(2)we get





=> t = 8, 12

Taking minimum value t = 8 sec


Q3. 56 tuning forks are arranged in a series that each fork gives 4 beats/sec, with the previous one. The frequency of last fork is 3 times that of first. Then frequency of first fork is

Q5.

A horizontal straight wire 10 m long extending from east to west is falling with a speed of 5.0 m , at right angles to the horizontal component of the earth’s magnetic field,  Wb m-2. Instantaneous value of the emf induced in the wire,direction of the emf and end of the wire which is at the higher electrical potential are


Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:


according to lenz's law direction of emf is  West to East


Q6. If the voltage across the electrodes of a cathode ray tube is 500 volts then energy gained by the electrons is
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

energy gained by electron 


Q7. In ground wave propagation the earth
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q8.

A particle starts from the origin at t = 0 s with a velocity of 10.0  m/s and moves in the x-y plane with a constant acceleration of ( 8.0+ 2.0) m . At what time is the x- coordinate of the particle 16 m? What is the y-coordinate of the particle at that time?


Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

u = uxi + uyj = 10j,

ux = 0 and uy = 10 m/s

a = axi + ayj = 8i + 2j,

ax = 8 and ay = 2 m/s2

x = uxt +axt2

=> 16 = 

t = 2 sec         

y = uyt +   = 10x2 + = 24 m


Q9.
A system has two charges and located at points A: (0, 0, –15 cm) and B: (0,0, +15 cm), respectively. What are the total charge and electric dipole moment of the system? 

Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

Total charge=
Dipole moment=
Q10. A metal rod that is 4.00 m long and 0.50  in cross-sectional area is found to stretch 0.20 cm under a tension of 5000 N. What is Young’s modulus for this metal?
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.
