Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Difficult: Easy
Category: Problem Solving and Data Analysis/ Statistics and Probability.
Strategic Advice: A question like this is as straightforward as it sounds - so be extra careful with your calculations and you are sure to get it correct.
Getting to the Answer: Don't try keep track of the changes in your head. Instead, jot them down to the right of the last column. Be sure to include a positive or negative sign to indicate whether each change is an increase or a decrease. Then add the changes to find the total increase

To add quickly, notice that the first two changes cancel each other, so the total increase is 20+5=25, which is (A).

The following bar graph (Figure) represents the heights (in cm) of 50 students of Class XI of a particular school. Study the graph and answer the following questions: What percentage of the total number of students have their heights more than 149 cm? How many students in the class are in the range of maximum height of the class? The school wants to provide a particular type of tonic to each student below the height of 150cm to improve his height. If the cost of the tonic for each student comes out to be Rs. 55, how much amount of money is required? How many students are in the range of shortest height of the class? State whether true or false: There are 9 students in the class whose heights are in the range of 155-159 cm. Maximum height (in cm) of a student in the class is 17. There are 29 students in the class whose heights are in the range of 145-154 cm. Minimum height (in cm) of a student is the class is in the range of 140-144cms. The number of students in the class having their heights less than 150cm is 12. There are 14 students each of whom has height more than 154 cm.

Total number of students of a school in different years is shown in the following table: Year, No. of Students 1996 1998 2000 2002 2004, 400 550 450 600 650 Represent the above data by a pictograph. Prepare a pictograph of students using one symbol an icon of a student to represent 100 students and answer the following questions: How many symbols represent total number of students in the year 2002? How many symbols represent total number of students in the year 1998? Prepare another pictograph of students using any other symbol each representing 50 students. Which pictograph do you find more informative?

Paramagnetism is a property due to the presence of unpaired electrons. In case of transition metals, as they contain unpaired electrons in the (n-1) d orbitals , most of the transition metal ions and their compounds are paramagnetic. Para magnetism increases with increases in number of unpaired electrons. Magnetic moment is calculated from 'spin only formula' Vz mu=sqrt(n(n+2)) B.M n="number of unpaired electrons" Similarly the colour of the compounds of transition metals may be attributed to the presence of incomplete (n-1) d sub-shell. When an electron from a lower energy of d-orbitals is excited to a higher energy d-orbital, the energy of excitation corresponds to the frequency of light absorbed. This frequency generally lies in the visible region. The colour observed corresponds to complementary colour of the light observed. The frequency of the light absorbed is determined by the nature of the ligand. Titanium shows magnetic moments of 1.73 BM in its compound. What is the oxidation state of titanium in the compound?

The Betatron was the first important machine for producing high energy electrons. The action of the betatron depends on the same fundamental principle as that of the transformer in which an alternating current applied to a primary coil induces an altermating current usually with higher or lower voltage in the secondary coil. In the betatron secondary coil is replaced by a doughnut shaped vacuum chamber.Electron produced in the doughnut from a hot filament, are given a preliminary acceleration by the application of an electric field having potential difference of 20 kV to 70 kV , when an alternating magnetic field is applied parallel to the axis of the tube, two effects are produced (1) an electromotive force is produced in the electron orbit by the changing magnetic flux that gives an additional energy to the electrons (2) a radial force is produced by the action of magnetic field whose direction is perpendicular to the electron velocity. Which keeps the electron moving in a circular path. Conditions are arranged such that the increasing magnetic field keeps the electron in a circular orbit of constant radius. The mathematical relation between the betatron parameters to ensure the above condition is called BETATRON condition. If the orbit radius of the circular path traced by the electron is R , magnetic field is B , speed of the electron is v , mass of the electron is m , charge on the electron is e and phi is the flux within the orbit of radius R . Then answer the following questions based on the above comprehension. What is the BETATRON condition ?
