21        A

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\varepsilon &={{V}_{PQ}} \\   &=\frac{2.0}{2.0+1.0}\times 0.60 \\   &=0.40\text{ V}  \end{aligned}

The unknown cell must be oriented in the same direction as the driver cell (0.60 V). If it is oriented the other way, a null deflection is not possible.

24P1Q27

27        A

First calculate the current in the transmission cables.

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}(P&=VI) \\   100.00\times {{10}^{6}}&=400\times {{10}^{3}}I \\   I&=250\text{ A}  \end{aligned}

Total resistance of the cables, \displaystyle r=2\times 100\times 0.030=6.0\text{  }\Omega\text{ }

Power lost in the cables\displaystyle ={{I}^{2}}r={{250}^{2}}\times 6.0=375000\text{ W}

Power input to the sub-station\displaystyle =100.00\times {{10}^{6}}-375000=99.625\text{ MW}

24P1Q24

24        B

Since the magnetic force provides the required centripetal force, \displaystyle Bqv=\frac{m{{v}^{2}}}{r}\text{ }\Rightarrow \text{ }r=\frac{mv}{Bq}

\displaystyle T=\frac{2\pi r}{v}=\frac{2\pi }{v}\frac{mv}{Bq}=\frac{2\pi m}{Bq}

T is directly proportional to m, inversely proportional to B and q, independent of v and r.

24P1Q23

23        C

Option A: FE is outward. FB is inward. If the two forces cancel out, net force will be zero. This allows the ion to move along a straight line at a constant speed.

Option B: FE is in the downward and rightward direction. FB is upward. The vertical components cancel out, net force will be rightward. This allows the ion to move straight rightward at increasing speed.

Option C: FE is inward. FB is downward. The net force will be inward and downward. It is not possible for the ion to travel along a straight line.

Option D: FE is rightward. FB is zero. The net force will be rightward. This allows the ion to move straight rightward at increasing speed.

24P1Q22

22        A

As temperature rises, thermistor’s resistance decreases.

Reading on A1 must increase since the total resistance of the circuit has decreased.

As the thermistor’s resistance decreases, the effect resistance across the thermistor also decreases (Think PDP).

Reading on A2 must decrease since p.d. across the resistor has decreased.
