Sample Questions

Q1Section 1 – Single Correct Answer

One end of a horizontal uniform beam of weight 𝑊 and length 𝐿 is hinged on a vertical wall at point O and its other end is supported by a light inextensible rope. The other end of the rope is fixed at point Q, at a height 𝐿 above the hinge at point O. A block of weight 𝛼𝑊 is attached at the point P of the beam, as shown in the figure (not to scale). The rope can sustain a maximum tension of (2√2)𝑊. Which of the following statement(s) is(are) correct?

A.The vertical component of reaction force at O does not depend on 𝛼
B.The horizontal component of reaction force at O is equal to 𝑊 for 𝛼= 0.5
C.The tension in the rope is 2𝑊 for 𝛼= 0.5
D.The rope breaks if 𝛼> 1.5
Q2Section 1 – Single Correct Answer

A source, approaching with speed 𝑢 towards the open end of a stationary pipe of length 𝐿, is emitting a sound of frequency 𝑓𝑠. The farther end of the pipe is closed. The speed of sound in air is 𝑣 and 𝑓0 is the fundamental frequency of the pipe. For which of the following combination(s) of 𝑢 and 𝑓𝑠, will the sound reaching the pipe lead to a resonance?

A.𝑢= 0.8𝑣 and 𝑓𝑠= 𝑓0
B.𝑢= 0.8𝑣 and 𝑓𝑠= 2𝑓0
C.𝑢= 0.8𝑣 and 𝑓𝑠= 0.5𝑓0
D.𝑢= 0.5𝑣 and 𝑓𝑠= 1.5𝑓0
Q3Section 1 – Single Correct Answer

For a prism of prism angle 𝜃= 60°, the refractive indices of the left half and the right half are, respectively, 𝑛1 and 𝑛2 (𝑛2 ≥𝑛1) as shown in the figure. The angle of incidence 𝑖 is chosen such that the incident light rays will have minimum deviation if 𝑛1 = 𝑛2 = 𝑛= 1.5. For the case of unequal refractive indices, 𝑛1 = 𝑛 and 𝑛2 = 𝑛+ ∆𝑛 (where ∆𝑛≪𝑛), the angle of emergence 𝑒= 𝑖+ ∆𝑒. Which of the following statement(s) is(are) correct?

A.The value of ∆𝑒 (in radians) is greater than that of ∆𝑛
B.∆𝑒 is proportional to Δ𝑛
C.Δ𝑒 lies between 2.0 and 3.0 milliradians, if ∆𝑛= 2.8 × 10−3
D.Δ𝑒 lies between 1.0 and 1.6 milliradians, if ∆𝑛= 2.8 × 10−3
