Class 11 Physics Sample Paper Solution

  1. Class 11 Physics Sample Paper Solution Section A

  2. (b) Angular momentum
    Explanation: Its value is approximately 6.626 {tex}\times {/tex} 10-34 joule-seconds (equivalent to units of angular momentum). Planck’s constant is fundamental to phenomena as the quantization of angular momentum and is used in Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle.
  3. (a) Potential energy
    Explanation: A stretched bow possesses potential energy. As soon as it is released, it shoots the arrow in the forward direction with a large velocity. The potential energy of the stretched bow gets converted into kinetic energy.
  4. (d) {tex}m v^{3} /(4 \sqrt{2} g){/tex}
    Explanation: {tex}L=m \frac{v}{\sqrt{2}} r_{\perp}{/tex}

    Here, {tex}r_{\perp}=h=\frac{v^{2} \sin ^{2} 45^{\circ}}{2 g}=\frac{v^{2}}{4 g}{/tex}
    {tex}\therefore \quad L=m\left(\frac{v}{\sqrt{2}}\right)\left(\frac{v^{2}}{4 g}\right)=\frac{m v^{3}}{4 \sqrt{2} g}{/tex}
  5. (a) one-fourth for wire A as for wire B
    Explanation: For same F, Y and L,
    {tex}l \propto \frac{1}{A}{/tex}
    {tex}\Rightarrow l \propto \frac{1}{r^{2}}{/tex}
    {tex}\therefore \frac{l_{A}}{l_{B}}=\left(\frac{r_{B}}{r_{A}}\right)^{2}{/tex}
    lA = 4lB
    or lB{tex}\frac{l_{A}}{4}{/tex}
  6. (b) g will decrease
    Explanation: {tex}g=\frac{G M}{R^{2}}, v_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2 G M}{R}}{/tex} and {tex}U=\frac{-G M m}{R}{/tex}
    {tex}g \propto \frac{M}{R^{2}}, v_{e} \propto \sqrt{\frac{M}{R}}{/tex} and {tex}U \propto \frac{M}{R}{/tex}
    If both mass and radius are increased by 0.5% then {tex}v_{e}{/tex} and U remains unchanged where as g decrease by 0.5%.

  7. (a) perfect and of constant mass and temperature
    Explanation: To obey Boyle’s law gas must be ideal or perfect and its mass or no of moles must be the same and temperature must be constant
    PV = nRT
    if n = constant and T = constant then only PV = constant
  8. (d) Internal energy and entropy are state functions
    Explanation: Both the internal energy and entropy are unique functions of state only.
  9. (c) decreases
    Explanation: Here, vs = 0 and vL is negative, where vs is velocity of source and vL is velocity of listener (aeroplane)

    If apparent frequency is v’ and v is actual frequency, then
    {tex}v=\frac{v \ – \ \left(-v_{L}\right)}{v} v{/tex} = {tex}\frac{v \ + \ v_{L}}{v} v{/tex}
    i.e., v’ > v
    So, apparent frequency will increase, it means apparent wavelength will decrease.
  10. (d) 5 m/sec
    Explanation: Equation of continuity,
    Rate = {tex}r=\frac{A}{3} V_{P}+\left(A-\frac{A}{3}\right) V_{Q}{/tex}
    {tex}\therefore \quad V_{P}=2 V_{Q}=\frac{3 r}{A}=\frac{3 \times 0.1}{10^{-2}}=30 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{sec}{/tex}
    As VP=20 m/sec
    Hence, V= 5 m/sec
  11. (b) a watch having main spring to keep it going
    Explanation: In the pendulum clock the time- period depends on the value of g, while in spring watch, the time period is independent of the value of g.
  12. (c) increase by 33.3%
    Explanation: Let I1 and {tex}\omega_1{/tex} be the moment of inertia and angular frequency respectively when his arms are outstretched and I2 and {tex}\omega_2{/tex} be their values when his arms are folded. Then, {tex}\mathrm{I}_{1} \omega_{1}=\mathrm{I}_{2} \omega_{2}{/tex}
    Now, {tex}\mathrm{I}_{2}=\frac{3}{4} \mathrm{I}_{1}{/tex}. Hence {tex}\mathrm{I}_{1} \omega_{1}=\frac{3}{4} \mathrm{I}_{1} \omega_{2}{/tex}
    or {tex}\omega_{2}=\frac{4}{3} \omega_{1}{/tex}
    Initial K.E. is {tex}\mathrm{K}_{1}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{I}_{1} \omega_{1}{ }^{2}{/tex} and final K.E. is,
    {tex}\mathrm{K}_{2}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{I}_{2} \omega_{2}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{3 \mathrm{I}_{1}}{4} \times\left(\frac{4 \omega_{1}}{3}\right)^{2}{/tex}
    {tex}=\frac{4}{3}\left(\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{I}_{1} \omega_{1}{ }^{2}\right)=\frac{4}{3} \mathrm{~K}_{!}{/tex}
    {tex}\therefore{/tex} Percentage increase in K.E.
    {tex}\frac{\mathrm{K}_{2}-\mathrm{K}_{1}}{\mathrm{~K}_{1}} \times 100{/tex} = {tex}\frac{\left(\frac{4}{3} K_{1}-K_{1}\right)}{K_{1}} \times 100{/tex}
    {tex}\frac{100}{3}{/tex} = 33.33 %
  13. (c) (1 + {tex}\frac{2}{n}{/tex})
    Explanation: (1 + {tex}\frac{2}{n}{/tex})
  14. (d) 116 ms-1
    Explanation: v = {tex}\nu{/tex}{tex}\lambda{/tex} = 580 {tex}\times{/tex} 0.20 ms-1 = 116 ms-1
  15. (b) 227oC
    Explanation: We know,
    {tex}\eta=1-\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}}{/tex}
    {tex}\Longrightarrow \frac{30}{100}=1-\frac{77\ +\ 273}{T_{2}}{/tex}
    {tex}\Longrightarrow \frac{350}{T_{2}}=1-\frac{3}{10}{/tex}
    {tex}\Longrightarrow T_{2}=\frac{350 \ \times \ 10}{7}{/tex} = 500 K
    Or, It must take heat at 500 – 273 = 227oC
  16. (d) take-off from the earth’s field
    Explanation: Focus acting on space ship are Gravitational pull due to Earth + Gravitational pull due to mass.
    Now since the mass of Earth is greater that mass of moon.
    Gravitational pull at Earth’s surface would be greater that at Moon’s surface.
    Hence The space ship will require greatest energy to overcome the difficult in take off from earth’s field.
  17. (a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
    Explanation: If the scalar product of two vectors are zero, then the vectors are perpendicular to each other. So
    {tex}(\hat{i}+\hat{i}+\hat{k}) \cdot(\hat{i}-2 \hat{j}+\hat{k}){/tex} = {tex}\hat{i} \cdot \hat{i}-2(\hat{j} \cdot \hat{j})+\hat{k} \cdot \hat{k}{/tex} = 0
  18. (c) Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.
    Explanation: Let {tex}\Delta {r}{/tex} and {tex}\Delta {l}{/tex} be the change in radius and length of the wire.
    {tex}\therefore{/tex} Change in volume {tex}=\pi r^{2} l-\pi(r-\Delta r)^{2}(l+\Delta l) {/tex}
    {tex}=\pi r^{2} l-\pi\left(r^{2}+\Delta r^{2}-2 r \Delta r\right)(l+\Delta l){/tex}
    {tex}\Delta V=\pi r^{2} l-\pi r^{2} l-\pi r^{2} \Delta l-2 \pi r \Delta r l{/tex}
    (neglecting terms containing {tex}\Delta r^{2}{/tex} and {tex}\Delta r \Delta l{/tex})
    Now, {tex}\Delta{/tex}V = 0 (given)
    {tex}\therefore \quad 2 \pi r \Delta r l=\pi r^{2} \Delta l{/tex}
    or {tex}\frac{\Delta r l}{r \Delta l}=\frac{1}{2} {/tex}
    poisson’s ratio {tex}=\frac{\text { Lateral strain }}{\text { Longitudinal strain }}=-\frac{\Delta r/ r}{\Delta l/l}=-\frac{1}{2}{/tex}
    Thus, statement A is correct. But statement B is wrong because Phosphor bronze has high Young’s modulus and low rigidity modulus.
  19. (d) A is false but R is true.
    Explanation: [Pressure gradient] = {tex}\left[\frac{d P}{d x}\right]=\frac{\left[\mathrm{ML}^{-1} \mathrm{~T}^{-2}\right]}{[\mathrm{L}]}=\left[\mathrm{ML}^{2} \mathrm{T}^{-2}\right]{/tex} which are not the dimensions of pressure, therefore pressure cannot be subtracted from a pressure gradient.

      The system is divided into two similar systems with spring divided in two equal halves, forming spring constant hence,
      k’ = 2k
      Hence, force is , F = – k’x
      Putting k’ = 2k (on cutting a spring in two halves, its k doubles)

    Due to pressure difference, left element moves towards right side by ‘y’ units and the same element rises in the right arm by ‘y’ units.

    If change in velocity (v) of total liquid column be v then change in kinetic energy,

    Again m = volume {tex}\times{/tex} density =  (A.2l ) {tex}\rho{/tex}

    Again, from the law of conservation of energy, total change in energy {tex}\Delta P E + \Delta K E = 0{/tex}
    {tex}\therefore \frac { A \rho g } { 2 } \left[ l ^ { 2 } + 2 y ^ { 2 } \right] + A \rho l v ^ { 2 } = 0{/tex}

    As A and P are on the same level, the magnitude of velocity will be the same at A and P.
    ​​​​​But the direction of velocity will be below horizontal,
    So horizontal velocity at P, {tex}v _ { x } = – v _ { 0 } \cos ( \theta ){/tex}
    and vertical velocity at P, {tex}v _ { y } = v _ { 0 } \sin ( \theta ){/tex}
    Now {tex}h = u t + \frac { 1 } { 2 } a t ^ { 2 }{/tex}
    {tex}h = – v _ { 0 } \sin \theta ( t ) + \frac { 1 } { 2 } g t ^ { 2 }{/tex}…….(ii)
    Consider horizontal motion from A to T , distance {tex}( R + \Delta x ) = v _ { 0 }{/tex}cos {tex}\theta . t{/tex}
    {tex}t = \frac { R + \Delta x } { v _ { 0 } \cos \theta }{/tex}
    Substitute t in (ii) we get
    {tex}h = – v _ { 0 } \sin \theta \left[ \frac { R + \Delta x } { \nu _ { 0 } \cos \theta } \right] + \frac { 1 } { 2 } g \frac { ( R + \Delta x ) ^ { 2 } } { v _ { 0 } ^ { 2 } \cos ^ { 2 } \theta }{/tex}
    {tex}h=-\tan\theta\;(R+\Delta x)+\frac12\left(\frac g{v_0^2}\right)\frac{(R+\Delta x)^2}{1/2}\quad(\because\theta=45^\circ\Rightarrow\;\tan\left(45\right)=1){/tex}
    {tex}h = – ( R + \Delta x ) + \frac { 1 } { R } \left( R ^ { 2 } + \Delta x ^ { 2 } + 2 R \Delta x \right) \left[ \because \frac { g } { v _ { 0 } ^ { 2 } } = \frac { 1 } { R } \right]{/tex}
    h  {tex}= – R – \Delta x + R + \frac { \Delta x ^ { 2 } } { R } + 2 \Delta x = \Delta x + \frac { \Delta x ^ { 2 } } { R }{/tex}
    {tex}h = \Delta x \left[ 1 + \frac { \Delta x } { R } \right]{/tex}
    Hence Proved.

    1. If {tex}\theta{/tex} be the angle between {tex}\vec{a}{/tex} and {tex}\vec{b}{/tex}, then
      {tex}|\vec{a}+\vec{b}|=\sqrt{|\vec{a}|^{2}+|\vec{b}|^{2}+2|\vec{a}||\vec{b}| \cos \theta}{/tex}
      Now {tex}|\vec{a}+\vec{b}|{/tex} will be maximum when
      cos {tex}\theta{/tex} = 1 or {tex}\theta{/tex} = 0
      {tex}\therefore |\vec{a}+\vec{b}|_{\max }{/tex} {tex}=\sqrt{|\vec{a}|^{2}+|\vec{b}|^{2}+2|\vec{a}||\vec{b}| \cos 0^{\circ}}{/tex}
      {tex}=\sqrt{(|\vec{a}|+|\vec{b}|)^{2}}=|\vec{a}|+|\vec{b}|{/tex}
      Hence {tex}|\vec{a}+\vec{b}| \leq|\vec{a}|+|\vec{b}|{/tex}
      The equality sign in applicable when {tex}\theta{/tex} = 0o i.e., when {tex}\vec{a}{/tex} and {tex}\vec{b}{/tex} are in the same direction.
    2. If {tex}\theta{/tex} is the angle between {tex}\vec{a}{/tex} and {tex}\vec{b}{/tex}, then the angle between {tex}\vec{a}{/tex} and {tex}-\vec{b}{/tex} will be (180o{tex}\theta{/tex}), as shown in figure.

      {tex}\therefore \quad|\vec{a}-\vec{b}|=|\vec{a}+(-\vec{b})|{/tex}
      {tex}=\sqrt{|\vec{a}|^{2}+|-\vec{b}|^{2}+2|\vec{a}||-\vec{b}| \cos \left(180^{\circ}-\theta\right)}{/tex}
      {tex}=\sqrt{|\vec{a}|^{2}+|\vec{b}|^{2}-2|\vec{a}||\vec{b}| \cos \theta}{/tex}
      {tex}\left[\because|-\vec{b}|=|\vec{b}|, \cos \left(180^{\circ}-\theta\right)=-\cos \theta\right]{/tex}
      {tex}|\vec{a}-\vec{b}|{/tex} will be maximum when cos {tex}\theta{/tex} = -1 or {tex}\theta{/tex} = 180o
      {tex}\therefore|\vec{a}-\vec{b}|_{\max }{/tex} {tex}=\sqrt{|\vec{a}|^{2}+|\vec{b}|^{2}-2|\vec{a}||\vec{b}| \cos 180^{\circ}}{/tex}
      {tex}=\sqrt{(|\vec{a}|+|\vec{b}|)^{2}}=|\vec{a}|+|\vec{b}|{/tex}
      Hence {tex}|\vec{a}-\vec{b}| \leq|\vec{a}|+|\vec{b}|{/tex}
      The equality sign is applicable when {tex}\theta{/tex} = 180°

  35. Weight of car = 1800 Kg
    Distance of COG from front axle = 1.05 m
    Distance of COG from back axle = 1.8 – 1.05 = 0.75 m
    Vertical forces are balanced ,
    So,At translational equilibrium:
    R1 + R2 = mg
    R1 + R2 = 1800 {tex}\times{/tex} 9.8 = 17640

    R1 and R2 are the forces exerted by the level ground on the front and back wheels respectively.
    Angular momentum about centre of gravity is zero.
    So,
    R1(1.05) = R2(1.8 – 1.05)
    {tex}R _ { 1 } \times 1.05 = R _ { 2} \times 0.75{/tex}
    {tex}\frac { R _ { 1 } } { R _ { 2 } } = \frac { 0.75 } { 1.05 } = \frac { 5 } { 7 }{/tex}
    {tex}\frac { R _ { 1 } } { R _ { 2 } } = \frac { 7 } { 5 }{/tex}
    R1 = 1.4 R2 …..(ii)
    Solving equations (i) and (ii), we get:
    1.4 R2 + R2 = 17640
    {tex}R _ { 2 } = \frac { 17640 } { 2.4 } = 7350 \mathrm { N }{/tex}
    {tex}\therefore{/tex} R1 = 17640 – 7350 = 10290 N
    Therefore, the force exerted on each front wheel {tex}=\frac { R_1 } { 2 }= \frac { 7350 } { 2 } = 3675 N{/tex}, and
    The force exerted on each back wheel {tex}= \frac { R_2 } { 2 }=\frac { 10290 } { 2 } = 5145 N{/tex}

    OR

    The given situation can be shown as:

    NB = Force exerted on the ladder by the floor point B
    NC = Force exerted on the ladder by the floor point C
    T = Tension in the rope
    BA = CA = 1.6 m
    DE = 0. 5 m
    BF = 1.2 m
    Mass of the weight, m = 40 kg
    Draw a perpendicular from A on the floor BC. This intersects DE at mid-point H.
    {tex} \Delta{/tex}ABI and {tex} \Delta{/tex}AIC are similar
    {tex}\therefore{/tex} BI = IC
    Hence, I is the mid-point of BC.
    DE || BC
    BC = 2 {tex}\times{/tex} DE = 1 m
    AF = BA – BF = 0.4 m …(i)
    D is the mid-point of AB.
    Hence, we can write:
    {tex}A D = \frac { 1 } { 2 } \times B A = 0.8 \mathrm { m }{/tex} ….(ii)
    Using equations (i) and (ii), we get:
    FE = 0.4 m
    Hence, F is the mid-point of AD.
    FG || DH and F is the mid-point of AD. Hence, G will also be the mid-point of AH.
    {tex}\Delta{/tex}AFG and {tex}\Delta{/tex}ADH are similar
    {tex}\therefore \frac { F G } { D H } = \frac { A F } { A D }{/tex}
    {tex}\frac { F G } { D H } = \frac { 0.4 } { 0.8 } = \frac { 1 } { 2 }{/tex}
    {tex}F G = \frac { 1 } { 2 } D H{/tex}
    {tex}= \frac { 1 } { 2 } \times 0.25 = 0.125{/tex}
    In {tex}\Delta{/tex}ADH:
    {tex}A H = \sqrt { A D ^ { 2 } – D H ^ { 2 } }{/tex}
    {tex}= \sqrt { ( 0.8 ) ^ { 2 } – ( 0.25 ) ^ { 2 } } = 0.76 m{/tex}
    For translational equilibrium of the ladder, the upward force should be equal to the downward force.
    NC + NB = mg = 392 …(iii)
    For rotational equilibrium of the ladder, the net moment about A is:
    {tex}- N _ { B } \times B I + m g \times F G + N _ { c } \times C I + T \times A G – T \times A G = 0{/tex}
    {tex}- N _ { B } \times 0.5 + 40 \times 9.8 \times 0.125 + N _ { c } \times ( 0.5 ) = 0{/tex}
    {tex}\left( N _ { c } – N _ { B } \right) \times 0.5 = 49{/tex}
    Nc – NB = 98
    Adding equations (iii) and (iv), we get:
    NC = 245 N
    NB = 147 N
    For rotational equilibrium of the side AB, consider the moment about A.
    {tex}- N _ { B } \times B I + m g \times F G + T \times A G = 0{/tex}
    {tex}- 245 \times 0.5 + 40 + 9.8 \times 0.125 + T \times 0.76 = 0{/tex}
    0.76 T = 122.5 – 49
    {tex}\therefore{/tex} T = 96.7 N
    Hence, tension in the given question will be 96.7 N from the above calculation.

    1. The position coordinates of point P = (+360, 0, 0) and point R = (-120, 0, 0)
    2. Distance can not be negative while displacement of a body can be negative or zero.
      Distance is a scalar quantity while displacement is a vector quantity.
    3. Displacement from O to P =  240 m
      Displacement from P to Q =  240-300 = -60 m
      Total displacement = 240-60 = 180 m
    4. OR

      As the initial and final position are same, so displacement will be 0 m.

    1. It may be considered as zero, when the spring is in normal position.
    2. {tex}\frac{E_1}{E_2}=\frac{k_1 x_1^2}{k_2 x_2^2}{/tex}
      here x1 = x2
      so {tex}\frac{E_1}{E_2}=\frac{k_1}{k_2}=\frac{2}{3}{/tex}​​​​​​​
    3. ​​​​​​{tex}\frac{E_1}{E_2}=\frac{k\;x_1^2}{k\;x_2^2}{/tex}
      here x1 = 3 cm and x2 = 4 cm
      so {tex}\frac{E_1}{E_2} =\frac{x_1^2}{x_2^2} =\frac9{16}{/tex}
      here E1 = 15 J
      so E2 = {tex}\frac{16}9\times E_1{/tex} {tex}= \frac{16}9\times15{/tex} = 26.7 J
    4. OR

      ​​​​​{tex}\frac{E_1}{E_2}=\frac{k x_1^2}{k x_2^2}{/tex}
      {tex}E=\frac{1}{2} k x^2{/tex}
      if distance = x, E1 = {tex}\frac12{/tex}​ kx2 = 10 J
      on increasing the distance x more
      E2 = {tex}\frac{1}{2} k(2 x)^2{/tex} = 2kx2
      so increase in potential energy = E2 – E1 = (2 – {tex}\frac12{/tex}) KX2
      {tex}=\frac{3}{2} K x^2=3 \times \frac{1}{2} k x^2{/tex} = 3 {tex}\times{/tex} 10 = 30 Joule
      so work required = 30 – 10 = 20 Joule
