Solution & Explanation

### Related Formula Newton's Law of Gravitation: F = Gfracm_1 m_2r^2 implies G = fracFr^2m_1 m_2 Potential Energy: U = mgh quad [textWork] Potential: V = fracWm Acceleration: g = fractextVelocitytextTime ### Core Logic Let's perform dimensional analysis for each item: 1. **A. Gravitational constant (G)**: [G] = frac[F][r^2][M^2] = frac[MLT^-2][L^2][M^2] = [M^-1L^3T^-2] Matches with **IV**. 2. **B. Gravitational potential energy (U)**: [U] = textDimensions of Work = [ML^2T^-2] Matches with **III**. 3. **C. Gravitational potential (V)**: [V] = frac[textEnergy][M] = frac[ML^2T^-2][M] = [L^2T^-2] Matches with **II**. 4. **D. Acceleration due to gravity (g)**: [g] = [textAcceleration] = [LT^-2] Matches with **I**. ### Step 1: Match and Selection Let's align our matches: - A rightarrow IV - B rightarrow III - C rightarrow II - D rightarrow I This sequence matches option (1). ### Pattern Recognition To save precious exam time on match-the-column questions, start with the easiest dimensional terms first. You know Acceleration due to gravity is g rightarrow [LT^-2] (D-I) and energy is [ML^2T^-2] (B-III). Looking at the options, only Option 1 matches this sequence immediately! ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Physics: Units and Measurements Class 11 Physics: Gravitation

Q17 2025 Significant Figures in Arithmetic
A person measures mass of 3 different particles as 435.42mathrm~g, 226.3mathrm~g and 0.125mathrm~g. According to the rules for arithmetic operations with significant figures, the additions of the masses of 3 particles will be.
  • A. 661.845mathrm~g
  • B. 662mathrm~g
  • C. 661.8mathrm~g
  • D. 661.84mathrm~g

Solution

### Related Formula Significant Figures Rule for Addition/Subtraction: The final result must be rounded off to keep only as many decimal places as there are in the measurement with the **least** number of decimal places. ### Core Logic Let's look at the decimal places of each measurement: - 435.42mathrm~g has **2 decimal places**. - 226.3mathrm~g has **1 decimal place**. - 0.125mathrm~g has **3 decimal places**. The minimum number of decimal places is **1 decimal place** (from 226.3mathrm~g). ### Step 1: Addition and Rounding First, perform the standard mathematical addition: textSum = 435.42 + 226.3 + 0.125 = 661.845mathrm~g Now, round this raw sum off to **1 decimal place**: - The digit after tenths place is 4 (4 < 5), so we round down. - Net rounded sum = 661.8mathrm~g. ### Pattern Recognition Bust the common myth: Addition depends on the least number of decimal places, whereas multiplication/division depends on the least number of significant figures. Always distinguish between these two rules during exams! ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Physics: Units and Measurements: Error Analysis and Significant Figures
Q4 2025 Dimensions of Physical Quantities
Given below are two statements: Statement (I): The dimensions of Planck's constant and angular momentum are same. Statement (II): In Bohr's model electron revolve around the nucleus only in those orbits for which angular momentum is integral multiple of Planck's constant. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
  • A. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
  • B. Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
  • C. Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
  • D. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect

Solution

### Related Formula E = hf implies [h] = frac[E][f] = fractextMtextL^2textT^-2textT^-1 = textMtextL^2textT^-1 L = mvr implies [L] = textM cdot (textLtextT^-1) cdot textL = textMtextL^2textT^-1 L = fracnh2pi ### Core Logic Statement I: Comparing the dimensional formula of Planck's constant (h) and angular momentum (L), both are identical [textMtextL^2textT^-1]. Hence, Statement I is correct. Statement II: According to Bohr's second postulate, angular momentum is an integral multiple of frach2pi, not an integral multiple of h. Hence, Statement II is incorrect. ### Pattern Recognition Watch out for exact definitions in standard postulates. Bohr's model requires angular momentum to be quantized in units of hbar = frach2pi, making statement II a classic trap. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Physics: Units and Measurements Class 12 Physics: Atoms

For the determination of refractive index of glass slab, a travelling microscope is used whose main scale contains 300 equal divisions equals to 15 cm. The vernier scale attached to the microscope has 25 divisions equals to 24 divisions of main scale. The least count (LC) of the travelling microscope is (in cm):
  • A. 0.001
  • B. 0.002
  • C. 0.0005
  • D. 0.0025

  • A. -1, 0
  • B. -1, 1
  • C. 1, -1
