Question no 14, 26 and 37.
1.17. The density of the substance (x cm^3) = Density of the same substance (of unit volume)
Keeping this in mind, density = mass/volume
Mass of an atom = Mp, there Np atoms in all
Thus, mass of Np atoms = Mp*Np
Volume = unit volume
Density of P = (Mp*Np)/unit volume
Repeat the same with Q, density = (Mq*Nq)/unit volume
As density of P > density of Q
Mp*Np > Mq*Nq
(Unit volume gets cancelled)
25. dsin theta = n*lambda
we know, d sin 45 = 3*lamda
d/lambda = 3/sin 45 = 4.24264.....
Now, highest order diffraction, we take theta as 90, dsin 90/lamda = n = d/lamda * sin 90 = d/lambda = 4.24264...
Meaning, the 4th order diffraction is completely visible
40. Momentum = mass * velocity
same p.d = same final velocity. Therefore, the one with the greatest mass has highest momentum = a-particle
--------
10. A body of mass m subject to a net force F undergoes an acceleration a that
has the same direction as the force and a magnitude that is directly proportional to the force and inversely proportional to the mass, i.e., F = ma (newton's 2nd law)
27. (I'll use # for lambda)
# = ax/D and d sin theta = n#
# is constant, thus, ax/D = dsin theta /n
x = dsin theta/n * D/a
a = 500d, D = 1m, theta = 30, n = 1
x = dsin 30/1 * 1/500d
= 1/1000 = 1.0 * 10^-3

14. Moments about Base. Forces creating torque at base are W (Mid-one) and F(wall).
equilibrium position, thus Fh - Wa = 0
Moments about point on the wall (Tip of ladder).
Fh+Wa - 2Wa = 0
Fh = Wa
Answer is A => Wa + Fh = 2Wa
Fh = Wa
26. I1 = Intensity at P, I2 = Intensity at Q
I1 = k/r^2
k = I1*r^2
I2 = k/4r^2
k = I2 * 4r^2
I2 * 4r^2 = I1*r^2
I1/4 = I2
Also, I1 = kA^2
= k*(8*10^-6)^2
Therefore I2 = k*(8*10^-6)^2 / 4 = 1.6*10^-11k
I2 = kA^2
A = sqrt(I2/k) = sqrt((1.6*10^-11k)/k) = 4*10^-6
37. I = V/R
V across R2 = 50/150 * 6 = 2
2/100kohms = 20*10^-6 A
