Q. 36. The wavelength of the first line of Lyman series for hydrogen atom is equal to that of the second line of Balmer series for a hydrogen like ion. The atomic number Z of hydrogen like ion is

(1) 2                                                                                      (2) 3

(3) 4                                                                                      (4) 1

Sol.

Answer : (1)

 

Q.37. Which of the following is not due to total internal reflection?

(1) Brilliance of diamond                             

(2) Working of optical fibre

(3) Difference between apparent and real depth of a pond 

(4) Mirage on hot summer days

Sol.   

Real & apparent depth are explained on the basis of refraction only. TIR not involved here.

Answer : (3)

 

Q. 38. A biconvex lens has a radius of curvature of magnitude 20 cm. Which one of the following options describe best the image formed of an object of height 2 cm placed 30 cm from the lens?

(1) Real, inverted, height = 1 cm                         (2) Virtual, upright, height = 1 cm

(3) Virtual, upright, height = 0.5 cm                     (4) Real, inverted, height = 4 cm

Sol.   

In general we have assumed µ = 1.5,

So, f = 20 cm and calculate v = 60 cm

Answer : (4)

 

Q. 39. In photoelectric emission process from a metal of work function 1.8 eV, the kinetic energy of most energetic electrons is 0.5 eV. The corresponding stopping potential is

(1) 2.3 V                                                                  (2) 1.8 V

(3) 1.3 V                                                                  (4) 0.5 V

Sol.   

eV = KEmax

Answer : (4)

 

Q. 40. Electrons used in an electron microscope are accelerated by a voltage of 25 kV. If the voltage is increased to 100 km then the de-Broglie wavelength associated with the electrons would

(1) Increase by 4 times                                       (2) Increase by 2 times

(3) Decrease by 2 times                                     (4) Decrease by 4 times

Sol.   

Answer : (3)
