Let m1 and m2 be the masses of the iron rod and mercury respectively. Let us denote the
lengths of the rod and mercury by l0 and L0 at 0°C and the corresponding lengths t°C by the
suffix t.
We know that the distance of centre of mass of a system of two particles of masses m1 and m2
at distances x1 and x2 is given by

Hence here the centre of mass of the system (rod + mercury) from the upper end O
at 0°C is given by

and at t°C,
In order that the centre of mass may remain stationary we must have
lcm = l'cm.

or
Where αi = coefficient of expansion of iron

Since the rod is thin, m1 = 0.

∴
Now m2 = A0L0D0 where A0 = area of the tube = AtLtDt
or A0L0D0 (1 + γt) = A0 (1 + 2α1t)LtD0
or Lt = L0 (1 + γt) (1 – 2α1t) = L0 (1 + γt –2α1t)

This problem requires using both Wien’s Displacement Law and the Stefan-Boltzmann Law.
First, find the surface temperature (T) using Wien’s Law (λₘₐₓT = b) :

Next, find the radius (R) using the Stefan-Boltzmann Law (L = 4πR²σT⁴):

18) This statement reveals the most profound insight from the Maxwell-Boltzmann
distribution. The curve’s high-energy tail, while containing a small fraction of molecules, is
extremely sensitive to temperature changes. When the temperature of a gas is raised slightly,
the entire curve flattens and shifts to the right. However, the area under the high-energy tail
increases by a much larger factor than the temperature increase itself.

19)

The solution connects the formulas for the distance of closest approach (r0) and the impact
parameter (b).
The distance of closest approach (r0) and impact parameter (b) are given by :

and
By rewriting the equation for b and substituting the expression for r0, we get a direct
relationship:

For a scattering angle of θ = 60°, we have θ/2 = 30°.

cot(30°)

Thus, the impact parameter is b = √3/2 r0.

Using KVL

24) Let θ be temperature of B, then

(substituting value of θ = 880°C)

The heat transferred is written as: Q = mL;

So, × t = m × 80

Simplifying: m = 440 gm

25) The final answer is 2.

The solution requires comparing the energy of the incoming photon with the allowed energy
transitions of the target atom.
Find the Energy of the Incoming Photon: The Paschen series consists of transitions ending
at n = 3. The series limit is the transition from n = ∞ to n = 3.
Ephoton = E∞ − E3 = 0 − (– 13.6 eV / 32) ≈ 1.51 eV
Analyze the Target Atom: The atom is in its first excited state, which is n = 2.
Check if Absorption is Possible: We calculate the minimum energy the target atom can
absorb, which is for the n = 2 → n = 3 transition.
Eexp = E3 − E2 = (–13.6 / 32) − (–13.6 / 22) = 1.89 eV
Conclusion: The incoming photon has an energy of 1.51 eV, but the smallest energy the
target atom can absorb is 1.89 eV. Since the photon’s energy does not match any allowed
upward transition, it cannot be absorbed. Because no interaction occurs, the electron in the
second atom remains in the n = 2 state.

Step 1: Atomisation process

A. Atomisation = energy required to break all bonds into isolated atoms (N, H).

B. For NH₃: NH₃(g) → N(g)+3H(g)

ΔH = 225 kcal

C. For N₂H₄: N₂H₄(g) → 2N(g)+4H(g)

ΔH = 355 kcal

In NH₃, there are 3 N–H bonds.

A. So, 3ΔN−H=225 ⇒ ΔN−H(B.E.)=75 kcal/mol

B. In N₂H₄, there are 4 N–H bonds and 1 N–N bond.

So, 4ΔN−H(B.E.)+ΔN−N(B.E.) = 355

4(75)+ΔN−N(B.E.) = 355
ΔN−N = 55 kcal/mol
