Material is said to be ductile if
  • a)
    a large amount of plastic deformation takes place between the elastic limit and the fracture point
  • b)
    fracture occurs soon after the elastic limit is passed
  • c)
    material cross section is not significantly reduced at failure
  • d)
    material breaks suddenly at little elongation
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Nandini Iyer answered
A ductile material is one that can withstand a large amount of plastic deformation between the elastic limit and the fracture point.
A material that breaks suddenly when elongated or fracture occurs in it soon after the elastic limit is crossed is called a brittle material.
A ductile material that exhibits extra elongation or deformation and does not fracture is also referred as superplastic material.

Pritam Kapoor answered
Given:
- The flood lamp stretches the wire by 0.18 mm
- The stress is proportional to the strain
To find:
- How much would it have stretched if the wire had the same length but twice the diameter

Let's begin by understanding the given information.

Stress is defined as the force per unit area and is denoted by the symbol σ (sigma). Mathematically, stress is given by:

σ = F / A

where F is the force applied and A is the area over which the force is applied.

Strain is defined as the change in length per unit length and is denoted by the symbol ε (epsilon). Mathematically, strain is given by:

ε = ΔL / L

where ΔL is the change in length and L is the original length.

From the given information, we know that the stress is proportional to the strain. This can be expressed mathematically as:

σ ∝ ε

or

σ = kε

where k is a constant of proportionality.

Now, let's apply this information to the problem at hand.

When the flood lamp is hung from the wire, it exerts a force on the wire which causes it to stretch. Let's assume that the original diameter of the wire is d and the original length is L.

From the given information, we know that the stress is proportional to the strain. Therefore, we can write:

σ = kε

where σ is the stress, k is a constant of proportionality, and ε is the strain.

The stress can be calculated using the formula:

σ = F / A

where F is the force applied and A is the cross-sectional area of the wire.

The force applied is the weight of the flood lamp, which can be calculated using the formula:

F = mg

where m is the mass of the flood lamp and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

The cross-sectional area of the wire can be calculated using the formula:

A = πd^2 / 4

where d is the diameter of the wire.

Therefore, we can write:

σ = (mg) / (πd^2 / 4)

The strain can be calculated using the formula:

ε = ΔL / L

where ΔL is the change in length and L is the original length.

From the given information, we know that the flood lamp stretches the wire by 0.18 mm. Therefore, we can write:

ε = 0.18 / L

Now, let's combine the equations for stress and strain:

σ = kε

σ = (mg) / (πd^2 / 4)

ε = 0.18 / L

Substituting the values of σ and ε, we get:

(mg) / (πd^2 / 4) = k (0.18 / L)

Simplifying, we get:

k = (mgL) / (0.18πd^2)

Now, let's use this value of k to calculate the change in length when the diameter of the wire is doubled.

When the diameter of the wire is doubled, the cross-sectional area of the wire becomes 4 times the original area. Therefore, the new diameter is 2d and the new cross-sectional area is:

A' = π(2d)^2 / 4 = 4πd^2

Using the same formula for stress,

For HF, pKa = 3.45. What is the pH of an aqueous buffer solution that is 0.1M HF (aq) and 0.300 M KF (aq)?
a)11.03
b)2.97
c)10.07
d)3.93 
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Suresh Iyer answered
Given, pKa = 3.45
Concentration of HF = 0.1 M, concentration of KF = 0.300 M
For acidic buffer;
pH = pKa + log [salt of weak acid]/[weak acid]
= 3.45 + log0.3/0.1
= 3.45 + 0.48
= 3.93

Stress has its own SI unit called the Pascal. 1 Pascal (Pa) is equal to 1 N/m2. In imperial units stress is measured in pound force per square inch which is often shortened to "psi". The dimension of stress is same as that of pressure.

Elasticity is the property of a body, by virtue of which
  • a)
    it remains in original size and shape when the force is applied
  • b)
    it changes size and shape when the force is applied and stays in that shape when applied force is removed
  • c)
    it tends to regain its original size and shape when the applied force is removed
  • d)
    it is distorted or stretches without the application of force
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Lavanya Menon answered
Explanation:When external force is applied on the solid bodies, the solid bodies get deformed. The atoms or molecules are displaced from their equilibrium positions causing a change in the interatomic ( or intermolicular ) distances. When the deforming foce is removed, the interatomic forces tend to drive them back to their original postions. Thus the body regains its original shape and size.

Compute the fractional change in volume of a glass slab, when subjected to a hydraulic pressure of 10 atm. Bulk modulus of glass 37 GPa.
  • a)
    0.0027
  • b)
    0.0030
  • c)
    0.0024
  • d)
    0.0022
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Given data:
Bulk modulus of glass = 37 GPa
Hydraulic pressure = 10 atm

Formula used:
Bulk modulus of elasticity (K) = (pressure * volume)/(volume change)

Calculation:
Let initial volume of the glass slab be V₀ and let the change in volume be ΔV.
Bulk modulus of elasticity (K) = (pressure * volume)/(volume change)

⇒ K = (10 atm * V₀)/(ΔV)

⇒ ΔV/V₀ = (10 atm * V₀)/K

⇒ ΔV/V₀ = (10 atm * V₀)/(37 × 10⁹ N/m²)

⇒ ΔV/V₀ = 2.7 × 10⁻⁶

Hence, the fractional change in volume of a glass slab, when subjected to a hydraulic pressure of 10 atm, is 0.0027. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

Role of NH4Cl in qualitative analysis of third group cations
  • a)
    to provide basic medium
  • b)
    to provide acidic medium
  • c)
    to increase the degree of dissociation of NH4OH
  • d)
    to suppress the degree of dissociation of NH4OH
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Raghav Bansal answered
The correct answer is option D
Common ion effect is observed when a solution of weak electrolyte is mixed with a solution of strong electrolyte, which provides an ion common to that provided by weak electrolyte.
The NH4OH is a weak base and it does not ionise completely. Thus, due to presence of common ion NH4+ in NH4Cl, it suppresses the ionisation of weak base NH4OH in order to decrease the OH- concentration so that higher group cations will not get precipitated.
Thus the pair NH4​OH+NH4​Cl shows a common ion effect. 
Ammonium chloride suppresses the ionization of ammonium hydroxide

 We eat a variety of foods still pH of our blood does not change every time. The reason is
  • a)
    Strong bases in the blood donot let pH change
  • b)
    Stomach wall is resistant
  • c)
    There are buffers in the blood which resist pH change
  • d)
    Strong acids in the blood donot let pH change
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Pooja Shah answered
The correct answer is option C
pH of blood remains constant because of the buffer system present in the blood. Acid-base buffers confer resistance to a change in the pH of a solution when hydrogen ions (protons) or hydroxide ions are added or removed. An acid-base buffer typically consists of a weak acid, and its conjugate base (salt).It used to neutralized the extra added protons or OH- in blood.The buffer for maintaining acid-base balance in the blood is the carbonic-acid-bicarbonate buffer.So pH of blood remains even after eating spicy food.

If the line 2x – y + λ = 0 is a diameter of the circle x2+y2+6x−6y+5 = 0 then λ =
  • a)
    6
  • b)
    9
  • c)
    3
  • d)
    12
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Rajesh Gupta answered
x2 + y2 + 6x − 6y + 5 = 0
Center O = (-3, 3)
radius r = √{(-3)2 + (3)2 - 5} 
= √{9 + 9 - 5} 
= √13
Since diameter of the circle passes through the center of the circle.
So (-3, 3) satisfies the equation 2x – y + λ = 0
=> -3*2 - 3 + λ = 0
=> -6 - 3 + λ = 0
=> -9 + λ = 0
=> λ = 9

Anjali Iyer answered
I section is generally used as a beam because of its high section modulus as it's most of the area is situated away from it's neutral axis hence it has high moment of inertia i.e high section modulus i.e high moment carrying capacity which is the major requirement for a good beam section.

The locus of the centre of a circle, which touches externally the circle x2 + y2 − 6x − 6y + 14 = 0 and also touches Y-axis, is given by the equation

Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Ameya Tiwari answered
Understanding the Circle Equation
The given circle is represented by the equation:
- x² + y² - 6x - 6y + 14 = 0
This can be converted into standard form. Completing the square for both x and y:
- (x - 3)² + (y - 3)² = 4
This represents a circle centered at (3, 3) with a radius of 2.
Locus of the Center of the New Circle
To find the locus of the center of a circle that touches this given circle externally and the Y-axis, consider the following:
- Let the center of the new circle be at (h, k).
- The radius of this new circle is denoted as r.
Conditions for the New Circle
1. Touching the Y-axis: The distance from the center (h, k) to the Y-axis must equal the radius r. Hence, we have:
- r = h
2. Touching the Given Circle Externally: The distance between the centers of the two circles must equal the sum of their radii:
- Distance = √[(h - 3)² + (k - 3)²] = r + 2
Substituting r = h into the distance formula gives:
- √[(h - 3)² + (k - 3)²] = h + 2
Squaring both sides and rearranging leads to the equation of the locus.
Final Equation
After simplification, the resulting equation of the locus of the center (h, k) is:
- y² - 10x - 6y + 14 = 0
This corresponds to option 'D'.
Conclusion
Hence, the locus of the center of the new circle touching both the given circle externally and the Y-axis is described by the equation:
- y² - 10x - 6y + 14 = 0

When the value of Kc is very small then
  • a)
    reaction is at start
  • b)
    reactant conc. Is maximum
  • c)
    reactant conc. Is minimum
  • d)
    reaction is completed
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Rutuja Desai answered
When the value of Kc is very small, it indicates that the equilibrium position of the reaction lies towards the left side, meaning that the concentration of the reactants is relatively high compared to the concentration of the products.

Let's understand this in detail:

Equilibrium Constant (Kc):
The equilibrium constant, Kc, is a measure of the extent of a chemical reaction at equilibrium. It is defined as the ratio of the product concentrations to the reactant concentrations, each raised to their respective stoichiometric coefficients, at equilibrium, with each concentration term raised to the power equal to its stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced chemical equation.

Kc = [Products]^n / [Reactants]^m

Where [Products] and [Reactants] represent the concentrations of the products and reactants at equilibrium, respectively, and n and m are the stoichiometric coefficients of the products and reactants, respectively.

Interpretation of a Very Small Kc Value:
When the value of Kc is very small, it means that the numerator (concentration of products) is much smaller compared to the denominator (concentration of reactants).

This implies that the concentration of the reactants is significantly higher than the concentration of the products at equilibrium.

Explanation of Correct Answer (Option B):
The correct answer, "reactant conc. is maximum," indicates that when the value of Kc is very small, the concentration of the reactants is at its maximum.

This is because the equilibrium position favors the reactants, and the reaction is not proceeding significantly towards the product side. As a result, the concentration of the reactants remains high, while the concentration of the products is relatively low.

In other words, the reaction is not proceeding to a significant extent, and the reactants are dominant in the equilibrium mixture.

Therefore, when the value of Kc is very small, it signifies that the reaction is at the start, and the concentration of the reactants is maximum.

Elastomers are materials
  • a)
    which can be stretched without corresponding stress
  • b)
    which cannot be stretched to cause large strains
  • c)
    which cannot be stretched to beyond elastic limit
  • d)

Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Rajeev Saxena answered
An elastomer is a polymer with viscoelasticity (i. e., both viscosity and elasticity) and very weak intermolecular forces, and generally low Young's modulus and high failure strain compared with other materials. Elastomer rubber compounds are made from five to ten ingredients, each ingredient playing a specific role. Polymer is the main component, and determines heat and chemical resistance, as well as low- temperature performance. Reinforcing filler is used, typically carbon black, for strength properties.

Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Swati Chauhan answered
Understanding the Problem
To determine the minimum diameter required for a circular steel wire, we must consider the relationship between tensile stress, strain, and Young's modulus.
Key Given Data:
- Length of wire (L) = 2.00 m
- Maximum stretch (ΔL) = 0.25 cm = 0.0025 m
- Tensile force (F) = 400 N
- Young's modulus for steel (E) = 2.00 × 10^11 N/m²
Formulas to Use:
1. Strain (ε): ε = ΔL / L
2. Stress (σ): σ = F / A
3. Young's Modulus (E): E = σ / ε
Calculating Strain:
- Strain (ε) = ΔL / L
- ε = 0.0025 m / 2.00 m = 0.00125
Calculating Stress:
Using Young's modulus, we can rearrange the formula to find stress:
- σ = E × ε
- σ = (2.00 × 10^11 N/m²) × (0.00125) = 2.5 × 10^8 N/m²
Finding the Required Area:
From the stress formula, we can find the cross-sectional area (A):
- A = F / σ
- A = 400 N / (2.5 × 10^8 N/m²) = 1.6 × 10^-6 m²
Calculating Diameter:
The area of a circle is given by A = (π/4) × d². Rearranging gives:
- d² = (4A) / π
- d = √((4 × 1.6 × 10^-6 m²) / π)
- d ≈ 0.0014 m = 1.4 mm
Conclusion:
The minimum diameter required for the wire is 1.4 mm, confirming option 'A' as the correct answer.

Gaurav Kumar answered
Given equation of circles are
x2+y2+6x+6y=0....(i)
and x2+y2−12x−12y=0....(ii)
Here, g1 = 3,f2 = 3, g2 = −6 and f2 = −6
∴ Centres of circles are C1(−3,−3) and C2(6,6) respectively and radii are r1 = 3√2 and r2 = 6√2 respectively.
Now, C1C2 = √[(6+3)2 + (6+3)2]
= 9√2
and r1 + r2
​= 3(2)1/2 + 6(2)1/2
= 9(2)1/2
​⇒ C1C2 = r1 + r2
∴ Both circles touch each other externally.

Anjana Sharma answered
Given Data,
Length of the piece of copper = l = 19.1 mm = 19.1 × 10-3m
Breadth of the piece of copper = b = 15.2 mm = 15.2× 10-3m
Tension force applied on the piece of cooper, F = 44500N
Area of rectangular cross section of copper piece,
Area = l× b
⇒ Area = (19.1 × 10-3m) × (15.2× 10-3m)
⇒ Area = 2.9 × 10-4 m2
Modulus of elasticity of copper from standard list, η = 42× 109 N/m2
By definition, Modulus of elasticity, η = stress/strain

⇒ Strain = F/Aη

⇒ Strain = 3.65 × 10-3
Hence, the resulting strain is 3.65 × 10-3

We have to find the number of points with integral coordinates which are interior to the circle. for this 
Number of integral (coordinate) solution = Number of points,
(x)2+(y)<(4)2 where x∈[−3,3] and y∈[−3,3]

Given equation of circles are 
S1 = x2 + y2 + 2x + 6y = 0 ..................1
S2 = x2 + y2 − 4x − 2y − 6 = 0 ............2
Subtract equation 1 - equation 2, we get
S1 - S2 = 6x + 8y + 6 = 0
=> 6x + 8y + 6 = 0 ............3
Cente of the circle S2 is (2, 1)
Now, the length of the perpendicular from the center (2, 1) of of the circle 2 upon the common chord 3 is
l = (6*2 + 8*1 + 6)/√{62 + 82 }
=> l = (12 + 8 + 6)/√{36 + 64}
=> l = 26/√100
=> l = 26/10
=> l = 13/5
Radius of the circle 2 is
r = √{22 + 12 - (-6)}
=> r = √{4 + 1 + 6}
=> r = √11
Now length of common chord = 2√{r2 - l2 }
 = 2√{(√11)2 - (13/5)2 }
= 2√{11 - 169/25}
= 2√{(275 - 169)/25}
= 2√{106/25} unit

If there is a point (x,y) on circle x2+y2−4x−6y−3=0, then maximum value of is
  • a)
    5−4√2
  • b)
    5+4√2
  • c)
  • d)
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

KP Classes answered
x2+y2−4x−6y−3=0
⇒  (x−2)2+(y−3)2=42
Parametric forms of circle will be
x−2=4cosθ and y−3=4sinθ
⇒  x=2+4cosθ and y=3+4sinθ
Now, x + y = 5 + 4(sinθ + cosθ), − √2 ≤ sinθ + cosθ ≤√2 for maximum value of , value of (x+y) will be minimum, so (x + y) min = 5 + 4(−√2) = 5−4√2
Hence, answer is
