ASSERTION-REASON BASED QUESTIONS
In the following questions, a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R).
Choose the correct answer out of the following choices.
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true but R is false.
(d) A is false but R is true.
16. Assertion (A): In the phenomenon of mutual induction, self induction of each of the coil
persists.
Reason (R): Self-induction arises when strength of current in one coil changes. In mutual
induction, current is changing in both the individual coils.
Ans: (a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
17. Assertion (A): Ferromagnetic substances become paramagnetic beyond Curie temperature.
Reason (R): Domains are destroyed at high temperature.
From Curie Weiss law,
C

.

As temperature increases beyond Curie temperature, susceptibility decreases and the
ferromagnetic substances become paramagnetic. So, the assertion is true. Paramagnetic
substance has no magnetic domain. At a very high temperature, the domains of ferromagnetic
substance get destroyed and the substance transforms into paramagnetic substance. So, the
reason is also true and properly explains the assertion.
18. Assertion (A): The current in a.c. circuit is said to be wattless if average power consumed in the
circuit is zero. It is the component Irms sin of the a.c.
Reason (R): In an inductive (L) or capacitive (C) circuit as  = /2 so power factor = 0 and so
the current is wattless.

surface, electrons are emitted out from the metal. So, Einstein’s photoelectric equation can be
given as
Characteristic properties of photons:
(i) Energy of photon is directly proportional to the frequency (or inversely proportional to the
wavelength).
(ii) In photon-electron collision, total energy and momentum of the system of two constituents
remains constant.
(iii) In the interaction of photons with the free electrons, the entire energy of photon is absorbed.
21. A bar magnet is moved in the direction indicated by the arrow between two coils PQ and CD.
Predict the directions of induced current in each coil.
Ans: In figure, N-pole is receding away coil (PQ), so in coil (PQ), the nearer faces will act as S-
pole and in coil (CD) the nearer face will also act as S-pole to oppose the approach of magnet
towards coil (CD), so currents in coils will flow clockwise as seen from the side of magnet. The
direction of current will be from P to Q in coil (PQ) and from C to D in coil (CD).

28. A charge is distributed uniformly over a ring of radius 'a'. Obtain an expression for the electric
field intensity at a point on the axis of the ring. Hence, show that for points at large distances
from the ring, it behaves like a point charge.
Ans: Given a charge uniformly distributed over a ring of radius ‘a’. We have to find electric field
intensity E at a point on the axis of ring.
Let λ be the linear density of ring. Let P be a point on the axis of ring at a distance x from the
center of the ring. Consider a small element of length dl distant r from point P. Charge on the
element dq=λdl
Let this element be considered a point charge, then electric field intensity due to this element at
point P is given by,

where dE makes an angle θ with the axis of the ring.
Resolve dE into two components:
i) dEcosθ parallel to the axis of the ring.
ii) dEsinθ perpendicular to axis of ring.
The ring consists of many such elements. Each element in the ring gives rise to the electric field
intensity dE having horizontal and vertically components at point P.
Horizontal components (dEcosθ) due to all elements are added up as they are in the same
direction. However, dEsinθ component of electric field due to one element is cancelled by
dEsinθ component due to element opposite to this element as they are equal and opposite in
direction.
Therefore, net electric field intensity at P due to charge on the ring is:

that the current is ahead of the voltage by π/2.
Ans: The following figure shows an AC source, generating a voltage ε = ε0 sin ωt, connected to a
capacitor of capacitance C. The plates of the capacitor get charged due to the applied voltage. As
the alternating voltage is reversed in each half cycle, the capacitor is alternately charged and

An ac voltage V = V0 sin ωt is applied across a pure inductor of inductance L. Find an expression
for the current i, flowing in the circuit and show mathematically that the current flowing through
it lags behind the applied voltage by a phase angle of
2

. Also draw graphs of V and i versus ωt
for the circuit.
Ans: AC circuit containing pure inductance: Consider a coil of self-inductance L and negligible
ohmic resistance. An alternating potential difference is applied across its ends. The magnitude
and direction of AC changes periodically, due to which there is a continual change in magnetic
flux linked with the coll. Therefore according to Faraday’s law, an induced emf is produced in
the coil, which opposes the applied voltage. As a result the current in the circuit is reduced. That
is inductance acts like a resistance in ac circuit.

30. (a) Three photo diodes D1, D2 and D3 are made of semiconductors having band gaps of 2.5 eV, 2
eV and 3 eV respectively. Which of them will not be able to detect light of wavelength 600 nm?
(b) Why photodiodes are required to operate in reverse bias? Explain.
Ans: (a) Energy of incident light photon
For the incident radiation to be detected by the photodiode, energy of incident radiation photon
should be greater than the band gap. This is true only for D2. Therefore, only D2 will detect this
radiation.
(b) When a photodiode is illuminated with energy hc greater than the energy gap of the
semiconductor, then electron hole pairs are generated due to absorption of photon. The
photodiode is operated in reverse bias so that electric field applied at junction electrons and holes
are separated before they re-combine.

(b) Draw the diagram to show the shape of plane wave front as they pass through (i) a thin prism
and (ii) a thin convex lens. State the nature of refracted wave front.
(c) Verify Snell’s law of refraction using Huygens’s principle.
Ans: (a) Wavefront is defined as the continous locus of all such particles of the medium which
are vibrating in the same phase at any instant.

-
(b) (i) Diagram of wavefront passing through a prism:
(ii) Diagram of wavefront passing through a convex lens:
(c) We take a plane wavefront AB incident at a plane surface XY. We use secondary wavelets
starting at different times. We get refracted wavefront only when the time taken by light to travel
along different rays from one wavefront to another is same. We take any arbitrary ray starting
from point ‘P’ on incident wavefront to refracted wavefront at point ‘Q’. Let total time be ‘t’.
As time should be independent of the ray to be considered. The coefficient of AO in the
above equation should be zero.
Where 1
2 is called refractive index of medium 2 w.r.t. medium 1. This is Snell’s law of
refraction.

(a) State two main considerations taken into account while choosing the objective of
astronomical telescope.
(b) Draw a ray diagram of reflecting type telescope. State its magnifying power.
(c) State the advantages of reflecting type telescope over the refracting type.
Ans: (a) The objective of astronomical telescope should be of (i) large aperture and (ii) large
focal length.

-
(b)
Magnifying power (m) = Ratio of focal length of objective and eye piece (f0/fe).
(c) Advantages of reflecting telescope over a refracting telescope:
1. Due to large aperture of the mirror used, the reflecting telescopes have high resolving power.
2. This type of telescope is free from chromatic aberration.
3. The use of paraboloidal mirror reduces the spherical aberration (formation of non-point,
blurred image of a point object).
4. Image formed by reflecting telescope is brighter than refracting telescope.
5. A lens of large aperture tends to be very heavy and therefore difficult to make and support by
its edges. On the other hand, a mirror of equivalent optical quality weighs less and can be
supported over its entire back surface.
32. (a) Consider a beam of electron (each electron with energy E0) incident on a metal surface kept
in an evacuated chamber What may happen?
(b) What should be the wavelength of a photon required to remove a proton from a nucleus
which is bound to the nucleus with 1 MeV energy?
(c) Define intensity of radiation on the basis of photon nature of light. Write its SI unit.
Ans: (a) If a beam of electrons having energy Eo is incident on a metal surface kept in an
evacuated chamber the electrons may be emitted with maximum energy Eo (due to elastic
collision) and with any energy less than Eo (when part of energy of incident electron is used in
liberating electron from the metal).
(b) Energy of the photon must be equal to the binding energy of proton.
So, energy of photon = 1 MeV = 106

unit area per unit time.

(a) State Bohr’s postulate to define stable orbits in hydrogen atom. How does de Broglie’s
hypothesis explain the stability of these orbits?
(b) A hydrogen atom initially in the ground state absorbs a photon which excites it to the n = 4
level. Estimate the frequency of the photon.
(c) The energy levels of a hypothetical atom are given below. Which of the shown transitions
will result in the emission of photon of wavelength 275 nm?
Ans: (a) Bohr’s postulate, for stable orbits, states
“The electron, in an atom, revolves around the nucleus only in those orbits for which its angular
momentum is an integral multiple of h/2π (h = Planck’s constant).”
As per de Broglie’s hypothesis,

SECTION – E(Case Study Based Questions)
34. Case-Study 1:
Read the following paragraph and answer the questions
The relation between self-inductance and mutual inductance of two coils is M = 1 2
L L .
However, the above equation assumes zero flux leakage and 100% magnetic coupling between
the two coils. In reality there is always some loss due to leakage and position, so the magnetic
coupling between the two coils can never reach or exceed 100%. The fraction of magnetic flux
produced by the current in one coil that links with the other coil is called the coefficient of
coupling between the two coils. It is denoted by (k). k = 1, when the flux produced by one coil,
completely links with the other coil and is called magnetically tightly coupled. k = 0, when the
flux produced by one coil, does not link at all with the other coil and thus the coils are said to be
magnetically isolated.
(i) Under which condition the relation between self-inductance and mutual inductance of two
coils M = 1 2
L L is valid?
(ii) What is coefficient of coupling?
(iii) When two coils are said to be magnetically isolated?
OR
When two coils are said to be magnetically tightly coupled?

Ans: (i) The equation is valid for zero flux leakage and 100% magnetic coupling between the
two coils.
(ii) The fraction of magnetic flux produced by the current in one coil that links with the other coil
is called the coefficient of coupling between the two coils.
(iii) When coefficient of coupling = 0, magnetic flux produced by the current in one coil does not
at all link with the other coil, then the coils are said to be magnetically isolated.
OR
When coefficient of coupling = 1, magnetic flux produced by the current in one coil links with
the other coil 100%, then the coils are said to be magnetically tightly coupled.
35. Case-Study 2:
Read the following paragraph and answer the questions.
Capacitors Colour Code Read the following passage and answer the question that follows:
Capacitor Colour Code: Capacitor values as written on small capacitors are sometimes
misleading. Letters like p (pico) or n (nano) are used in place of the decimal point to identify its
position and the value of the capacitor. For example, a capacitor labelled as n33 = 0.33nE 8n2 =
8.2nF, 22n = 47nF and so on. Sometimes, capacitors are marked with the capital letter K to
signify a value of Kilo pico-Farads. As for example, a capacitor with the markings of 100K
would be 1000 x 100 pF = 100 KpF = 100 nF. Sometimes, a three letter code consists of the two
value digits and a multiplier. For example, the digits 471 = 47 x 10 = 470 pF, 332 = 33 x 100 =
3300 pF. To reduce these confusions an International colour coding scheme was developed
almost same as that of resistance colour code.

Black 0 0 х 1
Brown 1 1 х 10
Red 2 2 х 100
Orange 3 3 х 1,000
Yellow 4 4 х 10,000
Green 5 5 х 1,00,000
Blue 6 6 х 10,00,000
Violet 7 7 х 1,00,00,000
Grey 8 8 х 0.01
White 9 9 х 0.1
(i) What will be the colour code of a 27 nF capacitor?
(ii) What is the value of the capacitor bearing a colour code: brown, green, brown?
(iii) Two capacitors marked as 221 and 220, respectively are joined in parallel. What is the total
capacitance value?
OR
68k is written on a capacitor. What is its value?
Ans: (i) Red, Violet, Orange -427 x 1000 = 27000 pF = 27 nF.
Hence, Red, violet, arrange be the require colour code.
(ii) Brown, Green, Brown 15 x 10 = 150 pF
(iii) The value of the capacitor marked as 221 is 220 pF. The value of the capacitor marked as
220 is 22 pF. When connected in parallel, the total capacitance = 220 pF + 22 pF = 242 pF.
OR
Capacitance depends only on the geometrical configuration of the system of conductors. No, it
doesn't depend upon charge. The value of the capacitor = 1000 x 68 pF = 68 kpF = 68 nF
