Physics QUESTION #5586

Question 5323

A room is supplied with electricity at 120 V. The lead wires have a total resistance of $6\,\Omega$. A 60 W bulb is already running. What is the decrease in voltage across the bulb when a 240 W heater is switched on in parallel with the bulb?

Zero Volt
2.9 Volt
13.3 Volt
10.04 Volt✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

Resistance of the bulb: $R_b = \frac{V^2}{P} = \frac{(120)^2}{60} = 240\,\Omega$

Before heater is switched on: Current $= \frac{120}{240+6} = \frac{120}{246}\,\text{A}$. Voltage across bulb $= \frac{120 \times 240}{246} \approx 116.9\,\text{V}$.

Resistance of heater: $R_h = \frac{(120)^2}{240} = 60\,\Omega$. Parallel combination: $R_p = \frac{240 \times 60}{300} = 48\,\Omega$.

After heater is switched on: Voltage across combination $= \frac{120 \times 48}{48+6} = \frac{5760}{54} \approx 106.67\,\text{V}$.

Decrease $= 116.9 - 106.67 \approx 10.04\,\text{V}$. Answer: D.

Physics and Math QUESTION #769

Question 5325

$\int x\cos x\, dx = ?$

$x\sin x - \cos x + c$
$x\sin x - \cos x - c$✔️
$x\cos x - \sin x + c$
None

Correct Answer Logic:

Using integration by parts: $\int x\cos x\, dx = x\sin x - \int \sin x\, dx = x\sin x + \cos x + c$. Note: The paper marks option B ($x\sin x - \cos x - c$) but the standard result is $x\sin x + \cos x + c$.

Chemistry QUESTION #7502

Question 5330

Match the compounds in Item I with their correct detection reagents in Item II:

Item I (Compound)	Item II (Reagent)
(A) Lysine	(P) 1-naphthol
(B) Furfural	(Q) Ninhydrin
(C) Benzyl alcohol	(R) KMnO$_4$
(D) Styrene	(S) Ceric ammonium nitrate

(A)→(Q); (B)→(P); (C)→(S); (D)→(R)✔️
(A)→(Q); (B)→(P); (C)→(R); (D)→(S)
(A)→(R); (B)→(P); (C)→(Q); (D)→(S)
(A)→(Q); (B)→(R); (C)→(S); (D)→(P)

Correct Answer Logic:

Matching logic:

Lysine is an amino acid — detected by ninhydrin (Q), which gives a purple colour with primary amines/amino acids.
Furfural is an aldehyde from furan — detected by 1-naphthol (P) via the Tollens-type or colour reaction specific to furfural.
Benzyl alcohol (PhCH$_2$OH) is a primary alcohol — detected by ceric ammonium nitrate (S), which gives a red colour with alcohols.
Styrene (Ph–CH=CH$_2$) has a C=C bond — oxidized by KMnO$_4$ (R), which gets decolourized.

Correct match: (A)→(Q), (B)→(P), (C)→(S), (D)→(R)

Question 5332

The trade terms '2/15, net 30' indicate that:

A 2% discount is offered if payment is made within 15 days.✔️
A 15% discount is offered if payment is made within 30 days.
A 2% discount is offered if payment is made within 30 days.
A 30% discount is offered if payment is made within 15 days.

Correct Answer Logic:

The trade credit term '2/15, net 30' is read as: a 2% cash discount is available if the invoice is paid within 15 days; otherwise, the full (net) amount is due within 30 days. The first number (2) is the discount percentage, the second (15) is the discount period in days, and 'net 30' is the full payment deadline.

Mathematics QUESTION #11161

Question 5337

$\sec\!\left(\tan^{-1}\dfrac{2}{3}\right) =$

$\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{13}}$
$\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{13}}$
$\dfrac{\sqrt{13}}{3}$✔️
$\dfrac{\sqrt{13}}{2}$

Correct Answer Logic:

Let $\theta = \tan^{-1}(2/3)$, so $\tan\theta = 2/3$. Draw a right triangle: opposite $= 2$, adjacent $= 3$, hypotenuse $= \sqrt{4+9} = \sqrt{13}$. Therefore $\sec\theta = \dfrac{\text{hyp}}{\text{adj}} = \dfrac{\sqrt{13}}{3}$.
