13. The figures below depict two situations in which two infinitely long static line charges

of constant positive line charge density λ are kept parallel to each other. In their

resulting electric field, point charges q and – q are kept in equilibrium between them.

The point charges are confined to move in the x-direction only. If they are given a small

displacement about their equilibrium positions, then the correct statement(s) is (are):

(a) Both charges execute simple harmonic motion.

(b) Both charges will continue moving in the direction of their displacement.

(c) Charge +q executes simple harmonic motion while charge -q continues moving in

the direction of its displacement.

(d) Charge -q executes simple harmonic motion while charge +q continues moving in

the direction of its displacement.

Ans. (C)

Solution:

As +q is displaced towards right, the repulsion of right side wire will dominate and the

net force on +q will be towards left, and vice versa

Hence SHM

For –q, as it is displaced towards right the attraction of right side wire will dominate,

which forces the -q charge to move in the same direction of displacement similarity for

other side

Hence it is not SHM.

37. The % yield of ammonia as a function of time in the reaction :

N2(g) 4 3H2(g) 2NH3(g), H < 0

at (P1T1) is given below.

If this reaction is conducted at (P, T2), with T2 > T1, the % yield of ammonia as a

function of time is represented by



Page-31

Ans. (B)

Solution:

Initially on increasing temperature rate of reaction will increase, so % yield will also

increase with time. But at equilibrium % yield at high temperature (T2) would be less

than at T1 as reaction is exothermic so the graph is

38. If the unit cell of a mineral has cubic close packed (ccp) array of oxygen atoms with m

fraction of octahedral holes occupied by aluminium ions and n fraction of tetrahedral

holes occupied by magnesium ions, m and n, respectively, are

(a) 1 1

,2 8

(b) 1

1,4

(c) 1 1

,2 2

(d) 1 1

,4 8

Ans. (A)

Solution:

In ccp, O2– ions are 4.

Hence total negative charge = –8

Let Al3+ ions be x, and Mg2+ ions be y.

Total positive charge = 3x + 2y



Page-32

3x + 2y = 8

This relation is satisfied only by x = 2 and y = 1.

Hence number of Al3+ = 2.

and number of Mg2+ = 1.

n = fraction of octahedral holes occupied byAl3+

= 2 1

4 2

and m = fraction of tetrahedral holes occupied by Mg2+

= 1

Solution: (A)

Given 2 2 22 a b c

2(sin2x – sin2y) = sin2z

2sin(x + y) sin (x – y) = sin2z

2sin (π – z) sin (x – y) = sin2z

z sin z

sin x y2

..(i)

also given,

sin x y 1λ

sin z 2

Now, cos nπλ 0

cos 02

n = 1, 3, 5 A P, R, S

(B)

1 + cos 2x – 2 cos 2y = 2 sin x sin y

2cos2x – 2cos2y = 2sin x sin y

1 – sin2x – 1 + 2sin2y = sin x sin y

sin2x + sin x sin y = 2 sin2y

sin (sin x + sin y) = 2sin2y sin x = ak, sin y = bk

a(a + b) = 2b2

a2 + ab – 2b2 = 0 2
