Important Instructions :  
1. The test is of 3.20 hours duration and the Test Booklet contains 200 multiple choice questions (Four options 
with a single correct answer). There are two sections in each subject, i.e. Section-A & Section-B. You have 
to attempt all 35 questions from Section-A & only 10 questions from Section-B out of 15. (Candidates are 
advised to read all 15 questions in each subject of Section-B before they start attempting the question 
paper. In the event of a candidate attempting more than ten questions, the first ten questions answered 
by the candidate shall be evaluated.) 
2. Each question carries 4 marks. For each correct response, the candidate will get 4 marks. For every wrong 
response 1 mark shall be deducted from the total scores. The maximum marks are 720. 
3. Use Blue / Black Ball point Pen only for writing particulars on this page / marking responses on Answer 
Sheet. 
4. Rough work is to be done in the space provided for this purpose in the Test Booklet only. 
5. On completion of the test, the candidate must handover the Answer Sheet to the Invigilator before leaving 
the Room / Hall. The candidates are allowed to take away this Test Booklet with them. 
6. The CODE for this Booklet is Q1. 
7. The candidates should ensure that the Answer Sheet is not folded. Do not make any stray marks on the 
Answer Sheet. Do not write your Roll No. anywhere else except in the specified space in the Test 
Booklet/Answer Sheet. Use of white fluid for correction is NOT permissible on the Answer Sheet. 
8. Each candidate must show on-demand his/her Admission Card to the Invigilator. 
9. No candidate, without special permission of the Centre Superintendent or Invigilator, would leave his/her 
seat. 
10. Use of Electronic/Manual Calculator is prohibited. 
11. The candidates are governed by all Rules and Regulations of the examination with regard to their conduct 
in the Examination Hall. All cases of unfair means will be dealt with as per Rules and Regulations of this 
examination.

 In figure (a) and (c), both junctions are forward biased therefore both have same potential.  
 In figure (b) first junction is forward biased and second junction is reverse biased, so both junctions have 
different potential difference.

(1) Increases for both conductors and semiconductors 
(2) Decreases for both conductors and semiconductors 
(3) Increases for conductors but decreases for semiconductors 
(4) Decreases for conductors but increases for semiconductors 
Answer (3) 
Sol. As the temperature increases the resistivity of the conductor increases hence the electrical resistance 
increases. However for semiconductor the resistivity decreases with the temperature. Hence electrical 
resistance of semiconductor decreases.
