Paragraph for Question 14 to 16
Copper is the most noble of the first row transition metals and occurs in small deposits in several countries. Ores of copper
include chalcanthite (CuSO4.5H2O), atacamite (Cu2Cl(OH)3), cuprite (Cu2O), copper glance (Cu2S) and malachite
(Cu2(OH)2CO3). However, 80% of the world copper production comes from the ore chalcopyrite (CuFeS2). The extraction of
copper from chalcopyrite involves partial roasting, removal of iron and self-reduction.

Paragraph for Question Nos. 70 to 72
When a particle of mass m moves on the x-axis in a potential of the form V ( x) kx 2 ,
it performs simple harmonic motion. The corresponding time period is proportional to
V(x)
m
, as can be seen easily using dimensional analysis. However, the motion of the
k
particle can be periodic even when its potential energy increases on both sides of x = 0
in a way different from kx2 and its total energy is such that the particle does not escape
to infinity. Consider a particle of mass m moving on the x-axis. Its potential energy is
V ( x) x 4 ( 0) for | x | near the origin and becomes a constant equal to V0 for

TC(B)
Electrical resistance of certain materials, known as superconductors,

changes abruptly from a nonzero value to zero as their temperature is
lowered below a critical temperature TC (0). An interesting property of
superconductors is that their critical temperature becomes smaller than
TC (0) if they are placed in a magnetic field, i.e., the critical temperature
TC (B) is a function of the magnetic field strength B. The dependence of
TC (B) on B is shown in the figure.

This section contains 2 paragraphs. Based upon the paragraph 3 multiple choice questions have to be answered. Each of
these questions has four choices (A), (B), (C) and (D) out of which ONLY ONE is correct.
When liquid medicine of density is to be put in the eye, it is done with the help of a dropper. As the bulb on the top of the
dropper is pressed, a drop forms at the opening of the dropper. We wish to estimate the size of the drop. We first assume that
the drop formed at the opening is spherical because that requires a minimum increase in its surface energy. To determine the
size, we calculate the net vertical force due to the surface tension T when the radius of the drop is R. When this force
becomes smaller than the weight of the drop, the drop gets detached from the dropper.
*50.
If the radius of the opening of the dropper is r, the vertical force due to the surface tension on the drop of radius R (assuming
r << R) is

The key feature of Bohrs theory of spectrum of hydrogen atom is the quantization of angular momentum when an electron is
revolving around a proton. We will extend this to a general rotational motion to find quantized rotational energy of a
diatomic molecule assuming it to be rigid. The rule to be applied is Bohrs quantization condition.
