IIT JEE Physics Final Revision Set 33

1. A vibrating string of certain length l under a tension T resonates with a mode corresponding to the first overtone (third harmonic) of an air column of length 75 cm inside a tube closed at one end. The string also generates 4 beats per second when excited along with a tuning fork of frequency n. Now when the tension
of the string is slightly increased the number of beats reduces to 2 per second. Assuming the velocity of sound in air to be 340 m/s, the frequency n of the tuning fork in Hz is

(A) 344 (B) 336 (C) 117.3 (D) 109.3

2. A radio active sample S1 having an activity of 5μCi has twice the number of nuclei as another sample S2 which has an activity of 10μCi. The half lives of S1 and S2 can be

(A) 20 years and 5 years, respectively
(B) 20 years and 10 years, respectively
(C) 10 years each
(D) 5 years each

It is easier to pull a heavy object than to push it on a level ground.
and
STATEMENT - 2
The magnitude of frictional force depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact.
(A) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is a correct explanation for
STATEMENT-1
(B) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is NOT a correct explanation for
STATEMENT-1
(C) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is False
(D) STATEMENT-1 is False, STATEMENT-2 is True.

4. STATEMENT-1
For practical purposes the earth is used as a reference at zero potential in electrical circuits.
and
STATEMENT-2
The electrical potential of a sphere of radius R with charge Q uniformly distributed on the surface is given by Q/4πε0R

(B) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is NOT a correct explanation for
STATEMENT-1
(C) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is False
(D) STATEMENT-1 is False, STATEMENT-2 is True.


5. STATEMENT-1
The sensitivity of a moving coil galvanometer is increased by placing a suitable magnetic material as a
core inside the coil.
and
STATEMENT-2
Soft iron has a high magnetic permeability and cannot be easily magnetized or demagnetized.
(A) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is a correct explanation for
STATEMENT-1
(B) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is NOT a correct explanation for
STATEMENT-1
(C) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is False
(D) STATEMENT-1 is False, STATEMENT-2 is True.
