Detailed Solution for CSIR NET Physical Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 7

Such questions are all about visualization and ability to write one area in terms of others.

Here, Let the radius of PQRS be 2r 
∴ Radius of each of the smaller circles = 2r/2 = r

Area A can be written as:
A = π (2r)2 – 4 x π(r)2 (Area of the four smaller circles) + B (since, B has been counted twice in the previous subtraction)

A = 4πr2 - 4πr2 + B
A = B
A/B = 1

Choice (B) is therefore, the correct answer.
Correct Answer: 1

Detailed Solution for CSIR NET Physical Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 15

In a two-body collision, the law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of the system before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the system after the collision.
It is provided by the fact that there are no external forces acting on the system.
Let m1 and m2 be the masses of the two objects, and u1 and u2 be their initial velocities.
After the collision, let v1 and v2 be their final velocities.
Then, applying the law of conservation of momentum, we have:
m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2
Substituting the given values, we get:
(2 kg) (4 m/s) + (3 kg) (-2 m/s) = (2 kg) (-1 m/s) + (3 kg) v2
Solving for v2, we get:
v2 = (2 kg) (4 m/s) + (3 kg) (-2 m/s) + (2 kg) (1 m/s) / (3 kg)
v2 = 4/3 m/s.
Therefore, the velocity of the 3 kg object after the collision is (a) 4/3 m/s.

CSIR NET Physical Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 25

Assume that the noise spectral density at any given frequency, in a current amplifier is independent of frequency. The bandwidth of measurement is changed from 2 Hz to 30 Hz. The ratio (B/A) of the RMS noise current before (A) and after (B) the bandwidth modification?

Detailed Solution for CSIR NET Physical Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 25

In communications, noise spectral density (NSD), noise power density, noise power spectral density, or simply noise density (N0) is the power spectral density of noise or the noise power per unit of bandwidth. It has dimension of power over frequency, whose SI unit is watt per hertz (equivalent to watt-second or joule). It is commonly used in link budgets as the denominator of the important figure-of-merit ratios, such as carrier-to-noise-density ratio as well as Eb/N0 and Es/N0.

If the noise is one-sided white noise, i.e., constant with frequency, then the total noise power N integrated over a bandwidth B is N = BN0 (for double-sided white noise, the bandwidth is doubled, so N is BN0/2). This is utilized in signal-to-noise ratio calculations.

For thermal noise, its spectral density is given by N0 = kT, where k is the Boltzmann constant in joules per kelvin, and T is the receiver system noise temperature in kelvins.
The noise amplitude spectral density is the square root of the noise power spectral density, and is given in units such as

Explanation:
In the general opamp noise spectrum, we have two regions one is pink region.
This is when the spectrum is dependent on frequency whereas,
the other one is where the spectrum is independent of frequency which we call as white noise.
Now we are given with the condition that the noise spectral density at any given frequency, in a current amplifier is independent of frequency. 
So, we have the rms noise spectral density to be:

where fc is the lower limit of frequency in this white region where as  f is the higher frequency limit.
We are given with the difference in lower and higher frequency before the modification to be 2Hz.
Therefore:

CSIR NET Physical Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 27

The vibrational motion of a diatomic molecule may be considered to be that of a simple harmonic oscillator with angular frequency ω. If a gas of these molecules is at a temperature T, what is the probability that a randomly picked molecule will be found in its lowest vibrational state?

Detailed Solution for CSIR NET Physical Science Mock Test - 1 - Question 27

The probability P of finding a diatomic molecule in its lowest vibrational state is given by the Boltzmann distribution:

where E0 is the energy of the lowest vibrational state, K is the Boltzmann constant, and T is the temperature of the gas.
For a simple harmonic oscillator, the energy of the nth vibrational state is given by:

where is the Planck constant.
Therefore, the energy of the lowest vibrational state (n = 0) is:

Substituting this into the Boltzmann distribution, we get:

Simplifying this expression, we have:

So, the probability of finding a diatomic molecule in its lowest vibrational state is exponentially dependent on the inverse temperature and decreases as the temperature increases.
