PART –A 6 x 6 = 36 M

1. A particle p is located at A. Another particle Q is located at B 200 m south of A. P starts

moving at 2m/s towards east at some moment and simultaneously Q starts moving at
4m/s. (i) If Q moved first towards A and on reaching A quickly changed direction and
moved towards east, find the time, it takes to catch up with p. (ii) If instead Q aimed at
a point C east of A at which it arrives at the same time as P, find the elapsed time (iii)
what should be the minimum speed of Q to catch up with P before it moves 50m from
its initial position ? (Assume Q catches up by aiming at the position P would reach at
the same time as it does).

2. The devices D1 and D2 shown below are called diodes and have an interesting
property. When current flows in the direction of the arrow the resistance is low and is
called forward bias resistance. If the current were to flow in the opposite direction the
resistance is high and it is called reverse bias resistance. for D1 forward bias resistance
is 20 Ohm and reverse bias resistance is 600 Ohm. For D2 forward bias resistance is 30
ohm and reverse bias resistance is 200 Ohm. Find the equivalent resistance between A
and B if (i) A is at a higher potential (ii) B is at a higher potential

4. Two liquids of masses 600g and 500g and densities 0.6 gcm 3 and 1.5 gcm 3 are
combined to form a homogenous mixture. A solid block of mass 420g just floats in this
mixture. Find the density of the block material. If the equal volumes of the two liquids
were mixed instead, would this block float in that mixture? If it floats find the fraction

from the first tunnel to the moment it just disappears in to the second tunnel time
elapsed is 60s. Find the time elapsed between the moments the train just enters the first
tunnel to the moment it just leaves the second tunnel.
