A parallel beam of monochromatic unpolarised light is incidenton a transparent dielectric plate of refractive index \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\). The reflected beam is completely polarised. Then the angle of incidence is
-
Solution
When angle of incidence i is equal to angle of polarisation i.e, then reflected light is completely plane-polarised whose vibration is perpendicular to plane of incidence
A ball is thrown vertically upward with a velocity ‘u’ from the balloon descending with velocity v.The ball will pass by the balloon after time

Solution
Fig. shows a disc rolling on a horizontal plane with linear velocity v. Its linear velocity is v and angular velocity is ω.Which of the following gives the velocity of the particle P on the rim of the disc
-
Solution
Velocity of P = (NP)ω = (NM + MP)ω
= r(r + sin θ)ω = v(1 + sinθ)
An electron is

Solution
An electron is a lepton.
When red glass is heated in dark room, it will seem
-
Solution
When a red glass is heated to a high temperature it will glow with green light.
An electric dipole is placed along the x-axis at the origin O.A point P is at a distance of 20 cm from this origin such that OP makes an angle π/3 with the x-axis. If the electric field at P makes an angle q with the x-axis, the value of θ would be

Solution
A body of mass 5kg falls from a height of 20 metres on the ground and it rebounds to a height of 0.2 m. If the loss in potential energy is used up by the body,then what will be the temperature rise?(specific heat of material = 0.09 cal gm-1ºC-1)

Solution
Out side the nucleus, neutron is unstable (life ≈ 932s).
The relation between time t and distance x is t = αx2x + βx where α and β are constants. The retardation is
-
Solution
Two resistances R1 and R2 are made of different materials.The temperature coefficient of the material of R1 is α and that of material of R2 is– β. The resistance of the series combination of R1 and R2 will not change with temperature if R1⁄R2 equal to

Solution
A Carnot’s engine works as a refrigerator between 250 K and 300 K. If it receives 750 calories of heat from the reservoir at the lower temperature, the amount of heat rejected at the higher temperature is
-
Solution
\(\frac{750}{W}=\frac{250}{300-250}\)
Heat rejected = 750 + 150 = 900 cal.
The Fraunhoffer ‘diffraction’ pattern of a single slit is formed in the focal plane of a lens of focal length 1 m. The width of slit is 0.3 mm. If third minimum is formed at a distance of 5mm from central maximum, then wavelength of light will be

Solution
Direction: Each question contains STATEMENT-1 and STATEMENT-2. Choose the correct answer(ONLY ONE option is correct ) from the following-
Statement 1: Two convex lenses joined together can not produce an achromatic combination.
Statement 2: The condition for achromatism is \(\frac{\omega _{1}}{f_{1}}+\frac{\omega _{2}}{f_{2}}=0\) where symbols have their usual meaning.
The oscillating electric and magnetic vectors of an electromagnetic wave are oriented along

Solution
\(\overrightarrow{E}\) and \(\overrightarrow{B}\) are mutually perpendicular to each other and are in phase i.e., they become a zero and minimum at the same place and at the same time.
