account of 1 Mark
(A) decrease in free electron density
(B) decrease in relaxation time.
(C) increase in mean free path.
(D) increase in the mass of electron.
Ans: Relaxation time is defined as the time interval between two successive
collisions of electrons in a conductor when current flows through it. The
resistance of a conductor increases with an increase in temperature because the
thermal velocity of the free electrons increase as the temperature increases. This
results in an increase in the number of collisions between the free electrons and a
decrease in the relaxation time.
So, the correct answer is option (B).

1 Mark
(A) a force but not a torque.
(B) a torque but not a force.
(C) always a force and a torque.
(D) neither a force nor a torque
Ans: Given an electric dipole placed in a non-uniform electric field. An electric
dipole always experiences a torque when placed in uniform as well as non-
uniform electric field. But in a non-uniform electric field, the dipole will also
experience net force of attraction. So the electric dipole in a non-uniform electric
field experiences both torque and force.

(A) no net charge is enclosed by the surface.
(B) uniform electric field exists within the surface.
(C) electric potential varies from point to point inside the surface.
(D) charge is present inside the surface. 1 Mark
Ans: If the net electric flux is zero, then no net charge is enclosed by the closed
surface. ... Since electric flux is defined as the rate of flow of electric field in a
closed area and if the electric flux is zero, the overall electric charge within the
closed boundary will be also zero. So, the correct answer is option A.

10. Kirchhoff's first rule at a junction in an electrical conservation of

(A) energy
(B) charge
(C) momentum
(D) both energy and charge 1 Mark
Ans: The first law of Kirchhoff's is based on charge conservation, as it talks about
the summation of current to be zero at any junction, which means that if current
is conserved that implies that charge is also conserved.
So, the correct answer is option B.

Ans: As per the figure given above the stopping potential the variation of the
stopping potential photosensitive surface the frequency ( v ) of the light incident
on two different photosensitive surface M1 and M2.
So the figure representation is for the same value of V0 but differs in both the
case and the work function depends on the value of v that means greater the value
of greater is the work function hence surface M2 has greater value of work
function as, v 2 >v1 .

18. How does an increase in doping concentration affect the width of

depletion layer of a p-n junction diode ? 1 Mark
Ans: If we increase doping, the number of majority charge carriers (holes on the

rarer to a denser medium. 2 Marks
Ans: Wave front is an imaginary surface over which an optical wave has a
constant phase or in same phase and the shape of a wave front is generally
determined by the geometry of the source.
Derivation of law of refraction:
Huygens principle states that:
Every point on a primary wave front act as a source for the secondary wavelets.
These secondary wavelets are connected tangential in the forward direction give
secondary wave front.
Here AB acts as incident wave front or we can say as primary wave front.
DC act as refracted wave front or we can say secondary wave front.
Consider the light incise on the denser medium having reflective index μ1 and
get refracted through the are medium having refractive index μ 2 .

lens. 2 Marks
Ans: consider the diagram which will show the geometry of the image formation
by a biconvex lens.

Now applying the equation for refraction at the spherical surface ABC of the
biconvex lens we will get,

From the figure,

n1 n 2 n 2 -n1

OB BI BC1
Similarly now applying the same procedure on the second surface ADC we will
get,

Now from the figure,

n 2 n1 n 2 -n1
- + =

From this lens we get,

BI=DI1

Now adding above two equation we will get,

n1 n1  1 1 

OB DI  BC1 DC2 
Let us assume that the object is at infinity then,
OB → ∞
and the image will be at focus, DI=f
So we will get,

n1  1 1 
= ( n 2 -n1 )  + ……( 2 )
f  BC1 DC 2 

Hence from equation (1) and (2) we will get,

n1 n1 n1
+ =
OB DI f
Considering their respective lens and applying sigh conversion we will get,
BO = -u and DI = +v
So we will get,

Above equation is known as the lens makers formula for a biconvex lens.

24. Explain the principle of working of a meter bridge. Draw the circuit
diagram for determination of an unknown resistance using it. 2 Marks
Ans: Meter bridge also known as slide Wire Bridge which is a practical form of
wheat-stone bridge, which is used to measure the unknown resistances. The
working principle of Meter Bridge is the ratio of the resistance of the two lengths
of the wire across the position of jockey, where the galvanometer shows zero
deflection which is equal to the ratio of the known resistance R and an unknown
resistance S.
Let us assume resistance per cm length of the wire be r.
Now mathematically representing the principle of Meter Bridge,
Lr R
=
(100-L ) r S

25. Explain the terms ‘depletion layer, and ‘potential barrier, in a p-n
junction diode. How are the (a) width of depletion layer, and (b) value of
potential barrier affected when the p-n junction is forward biased? 2 Marks
Ans:

a) Width of the depletion layer:

The depletion region is the layer which is created around the p-n junction which
is devoid of free change carriers and also has immobile ions. It is created around
the p-n junction due to diffusion of majority carriers across the junction.
When the p-n junction diode is biased with forward biasing, the negative terminal
of the battery (potential) repels the electron toward the junction and provides the
required energy to cross the junction and recombine with the holes which is also
being repelled by the positive terminal. This will lead to the decrease in the width
of the depletion layer.
b) Potential Barrier:
It is a potential difference or we can say junction voltage that is developed across
the junction due to migration of the majority charge carriers across it when the p-
n junction is formed.
It opposes the further migration of the majority charge carriers across the p-n
junction and it appears as if a fictitious battery is connected across the p-n
junction. The batter acts in such a way that the positive terminal is to the n-region
and the negative terminal is to the p-region of the p-n junction.
The value of the potential barrier is 0.3V for Ge and 0.7V for Si semiconductor
diodes. Hence the forward bias voltage opposes the potential barrier and due to
the reduction in potential barrier thus the width of depletion layer also decreases.

disintegration constant of a radioactive substance is 0.0693h -1 . Find the time
after which the activity of a sample of this substance reduces to one-half that
of its present value. 2 Marks
Ans: Activity of a sample of a radioactive substance is defined as the number of
disintegration that has taken place in a given sample per second. In other word
we can say decaying of a radioactive substance.
Given: The value of disintegration constant of the radioactive substance is
0.0693h −1 or we can say rate constant k=0.0693h -1

Here we have to find the time after which the activity of a sample reduces to one-
half, in short we have to calculate the half life time of the radioactive substances.

And the intensity is directly proportional to the area or we can say width of the
slip as well as the separation between the slit and screen while angular width has
no relation with separation between the slit and screen.
(i) width of slit is increased, and
Ans: When the width of the sit ‘a’ increases then the angular width decreases and
the intensity of the central maxima increases.
(ii) separation between slit and screen is decreased
Ans: When the separation between the slit and screen decreases then the intensity
of the central maxima also decreases while there is no change in the angular
width.

29. With the help of a simple diagram, explain the working of silicon solar
cells, giving all three basic processes involved. Draw its I-V characteristics.
3 Marks
Ans: Diagram:
The construction of a silicon solar cell is usually made up of thick layer of n-type
semiconductor which is layered by a thin layer of p-type semiconductor. Then the
electrodes are placed on the top of the p-type semiconductor and then another
electrode for collecting current is attached to the bottom of the n-type
semiconductor.
Working principle:
When light strikes on the source of the cell, it get penetrated to the p-n junction
which is crested by the fusion of p-type semiconductor and n-type semiconductor.
Then the photons are able to create electron and hole pairs. These free electrons
in the depletion region will migrate to the p-type and two charges are built up on
the opposite side of the junction which crest a potential difference across the
junction. Hence when load is connected current will flow through it.
The three basic process involves are:
Generation of electron and hole pair are due to the light close to the junction.
Separation of electros to n side and hole to p side is due to the electric field in the
depletion region.
And the electrons reaching n side is collected by front contact and the holes
reaching p side are collected by back contact.

The peak value of the voltage across the inductor L will be,
 V0 X L

(a) Two cells of emf E1 and E2 have their internal resistances r1 and r2
respectively. Deduce an expression for the equivalent emf and internal
resistance of their parallel combination when connected across an external

Emf are E1 and E 2 .

Internal resistances r1 and r2 .

Here the total current I is,

I=I1 +I 2……(1)

Let V is the potential difference between point A and B.

Then V=E1 -I1r1

E1 -V
⇒ I1 = ……( 2 )
r1

And, V=E 2 -I 2 r2

E 2 -V
⇒ I2 = ……( 3)

 E r +E r   r r 
V=  1 2 2 1  -I  1 2 
 r1 +r2   r1 +r2 
If we replace this with a single cell it can be written as,
V=E equivalenet -Irequivalent

Now on comparing we will get,

 E r +E r 
E equivalenet =  1 2 2 1 

From the figure, r 2 =X 2 +R 2

Hence,
μ 0 I dl
dB=
4π X 2 +R 2
Consider a current elements opposite to that of A that is on B, then we can see
that the Y component of the magnetic field the current element get cancelled and
that of X component is present.

The binding energies per nucleon, the daughter nucleus and α particle are
7.8MeV, 7.835MeV and 7.07MeV respectively. Assuming the daughter
nucleus to be formed in the unexcited state and neglecting its share in the
energy of the reaction, find the speed of the emitted α particle.

(Mass of α particle = 6.68×10-27 ) 3 Marks

Ans: Given: The binding energies per nucleon is 7.8MeV, the daughter nucleus
is 7.835MeV and the α particle is 7.07MeV.
We know the energy released is,

(a) Derive the expression for the torque acting on the rectangular current
carrying coil of a galvanometer. Why is the magnetic field made radial.
Ans:
From the figure let us consider a loop ABCD in a uniform magnetic field strength
donated as B and a current through the path is I.
The magnetic forces of AB and Cd are equal and opposite to each other but have
a different kind of action.
Hence the force produce in the rectangular coil ABCD be,
τ=F×PD
Where PD is the perpendicular distance between two force arm i.e bsin θ and the
force is also represented as, F = IlB where, l is the length of the rectangular coil,
I is the current flowing through is and B is the magnetic field strength.
Now torque,
τ=IlBbsinθ
Where lb = A,
τ=IABsinθ
The magnetic field is made radial because I is not directly proportional to φ . We
can ensure this proportionality by having θ=90° . This is possible only when the
magnetic field. In such filed the plane of rotating coil is always parallel to B.

transformer. Give reasons to explain the following:

Ans: We can explain this with help of the diagram

The transformer work on the principle of the mutual induction that is whenever a
current is associated with the primary coil charges then an emf is induced in the
secondary coil. Hence when a transformer in which the output that is the
secondary voltage is greater than its induce or primary voltage it is known as step
up transformer.
Now the induced emf across the primary coil is,
dφ
E P =-N P

the coil.
Taking the ration of both the induced emf,
ES NS
=

(a)An object is placed in front of a concave mirror it is observed that a
virtual image is formed. Draw the ray diagram to show the image formation
and hence derive the mirror equation.
Ans:

From the diagram,

From ΔA'B'F and ΔMPF using similarity criteria we get,
A'B' B'F
=
MP FP
We have,
PM=AB
Now,
A'B' B'F

Now from ΔA'B'P and ΔABP using similarity criteria we get,
AB' B'P
=
AB BP
Now equation (1) and (2),
B'F B'P
=
FP BP
Where,
B’F = v+f
BP = u
FP = f
B’P = v
Therefore,
B'F B'P

22. An open tank with a square base and vertical sides is to be constructed from a metal sheet so as to hold a
given quantity of water. Show that the cost of material will be least when depth of the tank is half of its width
. If the cost is to be least when depth of the tank is half of its width. If the cost is to be borne by nearby
settled lower income families, for whom water will be provided, what kind of value is hidden in this question
?
Sol: Let the length, width and height of the open tank be x, x and y units respectively. Then, its volume is x 2 y
and the total suface area is x 2  4xy.
It is given that the tank can hold a given quantity of water. This means that its volume is constant. Let it be V.
Then,
V  x2y
The cost of the material will be least if the total surface area is least. Let S denote the total surface area.
Then,
S  x 2  4xy
We have to minimize S object to the condition that the volume V is constant.
Now,
S  x 2  4xy
4V
 S  x2 

Clearly, 2

Hence, S is minimum when x = 2y i.e. the depth (height) of the tank is half of its width.

25. A factory manufactures two types of screws A and B, each type requiring the use of two machines, an
automatic and a hand - operated. It takes 4 minutes on the automatic and 6 minutes on the hand oper-
ated machines to manufacture a packet of screws ‘B’. Each machine is availble for at most 4 hours on
any day. The manufacturer can sell a packet of screws ‘A’ at a profit of 70 paise and screws ‘B’ at a
profit of Rs. 1. Assuming that he can sell all the screws he manufactrures, how many packets of each type
should the factory owner produce in a day in order to maximize his profit ? Formulate the above LPP and
solve it graphically and find the maximum profit.
Sol: Let the factory manufactures x screws of type A and y screws of type B on each day.
 x  0, y  0
Given that
 Screw A Screw B Availibility

The constraints are

The maximum value of ‘Z’ is 41 at  30, 20  . Thus the factory showed produce 30 packages at screw A
and 20 packages of screw B to get the maximum profit of Rs.41

26. Let A   x  Z : 0  x  12 show that R   a, b  : a, b  A, a  b  is divisible by 4} is an equivalence

relation. Find the set of all elements related to 1. Also write the equivalence class [2].
Sol: We have,
R   a, b  : a  b is a multiple of 4, where a, b  A  x  Z:0  x  12  0,1, 2,...,12.
We observe the following properties of relation R.
Reflexivity : For any a  A, we have
a  a  0, which is a multiple of 4.

  a,a   R

Thus,  a,a   R for all a  A.

So, R is reflexive.
Symmetry : Let  a, b   R. Then,

 a,b   R
 a  b is a multiple of 4

 a  b  4 for some   N

 b  a  4 for some   N  a  b  b  a 

  b,a   R
So, R is symmetric.
Transitivity : Let  a, b  R and  b,c   R.Then,

 a, b   R and  b,c   R
 a  b is a multipleof 4 and b  c is a multipleof 4

 a  b  4 and b  c  4 for some ,   N

 a  b  4 and b  c  4
 a  c  4  4
  a  c is a multiple of 4
 a  c is a multipleof 4

  a,c   R
Thus,  a, b   R and  b,c   R   a,c   R
So, R is transitive.
Hence, R is an equivalence relation.
Let x be an element of A such that  x,1  R. Then,

x  1 is a multipleof 4

 x  1  0,4,8,12
 x  1  0, 4,8,12
 x  1,5,9  13 A
Hence, the set of all elements of A which are related to 1 is {1, 5, 9} i.e. [1] = [1, 5, 9].

piece of type A and ₹120 on each piece of type B. How many pieces of type A and type B should be
manufactured per week to get a maximum profit? Make it as an LPP and solve graphically. What is the
maximum profit per week?
Solution:
Let pieces of type A manufactured per week = x
Let pieces of type B manufactured per week = y
Companies profit function which is to be maximized : Z = 80x + 120y
Fabricating hours Finishing hours
A 9 1
B 12 3
Constraints : Maximum number of fabricating hours = 180
9x  12 y  180  3x  4 y  60 K
Where 9x is the fabricating hours spent by type A teaching aids, and 12y hours spent on type B.
and Maximum number of finishing hours = 30
 x  3y  30
where x is the number of hours spent on finishing aid A while 3y on aid B.
So, the LPP becomes :
Z (MAXIMISE) = 80x + 120 y
Subject to 3x  4 y  60
x  3 y  30
x0
y0
Solving it Graphically :

 CBSE-XII-2014 EXAMINATION

Z = 80x + 120y at (0, 15)

= 1800
Z = 1200 at (0, 10)
Z = 1600 at (20, 0)
Z = 960 + 720 at (12, 6)
= 1680
Maximum profit is at (0, 15)
∴ Teaching aid A = 0
Teaching aid B = 15

29. There are three coins. One is a two-headed coin (having head on both faces), another is a biased coin that
comes up heads 75% of the times and third is also a biased coin that comes up tails 40% of the times. One of
the three coins is chosen at random and tossed, and it shows heads. What is the probability that it was the
two-headed coin?
OR
Two numbers are selected at random (without replacement) from the first six positive integers. Let X denote
the larger of the two numbers obtained. Find the probability distribution of the random variable X, and
hence find the mean of the distribution.
Solution:
If there are 3 coins.
Let these are A, B, C respectively
For coin A  Prob. of getting Head P(H) = 1
3
For coin B  Prob. of getting Head P(H) =
4
For coin C  Prob. of getting Head P(H) = 0.6
 
we have to find P A

28. A manufacturer considers that men and women workers are equally efficient and so he pays them at the
same rate. He has 30 and 17 units of workers (male and female) and capital respectively, which he uses to
produce two types of goods A and B. To produce one unit of A, 2 workers and 3 units of capital are required
while 3workers and 1 unit of capital is required to produce one unit of B. If A and B are priced at j− 100 and
j− 120per unit respectively, how should he use his resources to maximise the total revenue ? Form the above
as an LPP and solve graphically. Do you agree with this view of the manufacturer that men and women
workers are equally efficient and so should be paid at the same rate ?

and supervision added to two times the number of awardees for honesty is 33. If the sum of the number of
awardees for honesty and supervision is twice the number of awardees for helping others, using matrix
method, find the number of awardees of each category. Apart from these value, namely, honesty,
cooperation and supervision, suggest one more value which the management of the colony must include for
awards.
