2) Explain Question:
Determine the shape of a wavefront originating from a very distant source of any shape.
Concept:
Wavefront propagation over large distances.
Solution:
A wavefront is a surface of constant phase.
As a wavefront travels away from its source, its curvature decreases.
For a source at a very large distance, the radius of curvature of the wavefront becomes
extremely large.
A small portion of a wavefront with a nearly infinite radius of curvature is considered flat.
Therefore, regardless of the initial shape of the source, the wavefront becomes a plane
wavefront at a great distance.

Explain the question : An object is 8 cm above the top surface of a glass slab of thickness 6
cm. The lower face is silvered. Refractive index of slab = 1.5. Find the final image position
behind the silvered face.
Concept : This question is based on refraction at plane surface + reflection from mirror.
Formula : Apparent depth = real depth / μ
Mirror reflection: distance of image = distance of object (behind mirror)
Solution :
=
Real distance of object from silvered face = 8 cm + 6 cm = 14 cm.
Apparent distance of slab =6 – 2 = 4 cm from upper surface.
Thus distance of apparent object from silvered face =8cm + 4 cm = 12 cm.
Silvered face acts as a plane mirror, so image forms same distance behind it.
Final image distance = 12 cm
Distance of image from actual silver surface = 12 – 2 = 10 cm
Final answer : 10 cm behind the silvered face

Balancing nuclear attraction against long-range electrostatic repulsion in large nuclei.
Solution:
Protons in a nucleus experience long-range electrostatic repulsion.

Extra neutrons provide additional attractive nuclear force without adding to the electrostatic
repulsion.
This is necessary to counter the repulsive forces between protons in heavy nuclei.

60) Explaining : If water vapour is assumed to be a perfect gas, molar enthalpy change for
vapourisation of 1 mol of water at 1 bar and 100°C is 41 kJ mol–1. Calculate the internal energy
change when 1 mole of water is vaporised at 1 bar pressure and 100°C.

93)
A. Dyad of cells in this context refers to the two daughter cells produced at the end of Meiosis Ⅰ.
B. Meiosis Ⅰ is a reductional division, meaning the chromosome number is halved. Since the initial
cell has 2n = 24 chromosomes, each daughter cell at the end of Meiosis Ⅰ will have = 12
chromosomes.
C. While DNA replication has occurred before Meiosis Ⅰ, each chromosome in the daughter cells
at the end of Meiosis Ⅰ consists of two chromatids, resulting in a DNA content of 2C.
94)
A. During meiosis, the diploid cell undergoes two rounds of division, which reduces the
chromosome number by half, resulting in haploid gametes.
B. Each gamete (sperm or egg) will contain half of the DNA content of the diploid cell, so the
DNA content of each gamete will be C.
Thus, the DNA content of gametes formed by this diploid cell will be C, representing the haploid
DNA content.
95) Explaining the Question – The question asks about the correct sequence of events in the

synthesizes proteins necessary for DNA replication.
DNA Replication (B): Takes place during the S phase, where the cell duplicates its DNA to
ensure each daughter cell receives an identical set
Tubulin Synthesis (C): Occurs during the G₂ phase, where the cell synthesizes tubulin proteins
required for forming the mitotic spindle during mitosis.

96) Solution : Rudolf virchow modified the cell theory to give it a final shape.
Final Answer : (2)
Explanation:
The reaction starts when the substrate docks into the enzyme's active site.
B. (D) Binding of the substrate induces the enzyme to alter its shape.
This is the induced fit mechanism, where the enzyme changes its conformation to better
accommodate the substrate.
Once the substrate is properly positioned, the enzyme catalyzes the reaction, forming an
enzyme–product complex.
Finally, the products are released, and the enzyme is free to catalyze another reaction.

Question Explanation: Determining which event will not occur after a tubectomy.
Solution:
A. (1) Menstruation cycle: Menstruation will continue after tubectomy because the ovaries still
function and release eggs, but they cannot travel to the uterus.
B. (2) Ovulation: Ovulation still occurs after tubectomy, as the ovaries continue to release eggs.
C. (4) Formation of Graafian follicle: The formation of Graafian follicles still occurs in the ovaries
as part of the regular menstrual cycle.
However, (3) Fusion of sperm and ovum will not occur because the fallopian tubes are blocked
or cut during tubectomy, preventing the sperm from reaching the egg.
