1. Two spherical stars A and B have densities A and B, respectively. A and B have the same radius, and their
masses MA and MB are related by MB = 2MA. Due to an interaction process, star A loses some of its mass, so
that its radius is halved, while its spherical shape is retained, and its density remains A. The entire mass lost by
A is deposited as a thick spherical shell on B with the density of the shell being A. If vA and vB are the escape

7. Consider an LC circuit, with inductance L = 0.1 H and capacitance C = 10–3 F, kept on a plane. The area of the
circuit is 1 m2. It is placed in a constant magnetic field of strength B0 which is perpendicular to the plane of the
circuit. At time t = 0, the magnetic field strength starts increasing linearly as B = B0 + t with  = 0.04 Ts–1. The
maximum magnitude of the current in the circuit is _____ mA.

8. A projectile is fired from horizontal ground with speed v and projection angle . When the acceleration due to
gravity is g, the range of the projectile is d. If at the highest point in its trajectory, the projectile enters a different
g
region where the effective acceleration due to gravity is g = , then the new range is d = nd. The value of

14. The binding energy of nucleons in a nucleus can be affected by the pairwise Coulomb repulsion. Assume that
all nucleons are uniformly distributed inside the nucleus. Let the binding energy of a proton be Ebp and the binding
energy of a neutron be Ebn in the nucleus.

(A) Ebp − Ebn is proportional to Z(Z – 1) where Z is the atomic number of the nucleus.
1
−
(B) Ebp − Ebn is proportional to A 3 where A is the mass number of the nucleus.

(C) Ebp − Ebn is positive.

(D) Ebp increases if the nucleus undergoes a beta decay emitting a positron.
Answer (A, B, D)
Sol. Total binding energy (without considering repulsions),

Eb = [Zmp + ( A – Z )mn − mx ] c 2

A
Where, ZX is the nuclei under consideration.

Now, considering repulsion :

Number of proton pairs = Z C2

Z (Z − 1) 1 e2
 This repulsion energy  
2 40 R

Where R is the radius of the nucleus

 Ebp − Ebn  Z (Z − 1)  there will be no repulsion term for neutrons.

Also, since R = R0 A1/3

 Ebp − Ebn  A –1/3

Because of repulsion among protons,

Ebp  Ebn

Since in + decay, number of protons decrease  repulsion would decrease

 Ebp increases

17. List I describes thermodynamic processes in four different systems. List II gives the magnitudes (either exactly
or as a close approximation) of possible changes in the internal energy of the system due to the process.

List-I List-II

(I) 10–3 kg of water 100°C is converted to steam (P) 2 kJ

at the same temperature, at a pressure of 105
Pa. The volume of the system changes from
10–6 m3 to 10–3 m3 in the process. Latent heat
of water = 2250 kJ/kg.

(II) 0.2 moles of a rigid diatomic ideal gas with (Q) 7 kJ

volume V at temperature 500 K undergoes an
isobaric expansion to volume 3 V. Assume R =
8.0 J mol–1 K–1.

(III) One mole of a monoatomic ideal gas is (R) 4 kJ

compressed adiabatically from volume
1 V
V = m3 and pressure 2 kPa to volume .
