IIT JEE 2007 Question Paper with Solutions

Paper 1

Q. A resistance of 2 ohm is connected across one gap of a metre-bridge (the length of the wire is 100 cm) and an unknown resistance, greater than 2 ohm, is connected across the other gap. When these resistances arc inter changed, the balance point shifts by 20 cm. Neglecting any corrections, the unknown resistance is :
(A) 3 ohm
(B) 4 ohm
(C) 5 ohm
(D) 6 ohm

Q. In an experiment to determine the focal length (f) of a concave mirror by the u-v method, a student places the object pin A on the principal axis at a distance x from the pole P. The student looks at the pin and its inverted image from a distance keeping his/her eye in line with PA. When the student shifts his/her eye towards left, the image appears to the right of the object pin Then,
(A) x<f
(B) f<x<2f
(C) x=2f
(D) x>2f

Q. In the experiment to determine the speed of sound using a resonance column,
(A) prongs of the tuning fork are kept in a vertical plane.
(B) prangs of the tuning fork are kept in a horizontal plane.
(C) in one of the two resonances observed, the length of the resonating air column is close to the wavelength of sound in air.
(D) in one of the two resonances observed, the length of the resonating air column is close to half of the wavelength of sound in air.

Q. A student performs an experiment to determine the Young’s modulus of a wire, exactly 2 m long, by Searle’s method. In a particular reading, the student measures the extension in the length of the wire to be 0.8 mm with an uncertainty of ±0.05 mm at a load of exactly 1.0 kg. The student also measures the diameter of the wire to be 0.4 mm with an uncertainty of + 0.01 mm. Take g = 9.8 m/s² (exact). The Young’s modulus obtained from the reading is
(A) (2.0 ± 0.3) x 10¹¹ N/m²
(B) (2.0 ± 0.2) x 10¹¹ N/m²
(C) (2.0 ± 0.1) x 10¹¹ N/m²
(D) (2.0 ± 0.05) x 10¹¹ N/m²
