PREFACE
Physics is one of the oldest academic discipline & its roots lie in mans fascination with the dynamics of the
universe. Physics focuses on the study of nature, matter, its motion, & related concepts such as energy, force,
time & space.
Physics not only adds great value towards a progressive society but also contributes immensely towards other
sciences like Chemistry and Biology. Interdisciplinary research in the above mentioned fields has led to
monumental contributions towards the progress in technology. E.g. the study of electromagnetism led to the
development of television, computers, appliances etc.
Targets Physics Vol. II has been compiled according to the notified syllabus for JEE (Main) and
NEETUG, which in turn has been framed after reviewing various state syllabi as well as the ones prepared by CBSE,
NCERT and COBSE.
Targets Physics Vol. II comprises of a comprehensive coverage of theoretical concepts & multiple choice
questions. In the development of each chapter we have ensured the inclusion of shortcuts & unique points
represented as a note for the benefit of students.
The flow of content & MCQs has been planned keeping in mind the weightage given to a topic as per the JEE
(Main) and NEET-UG exam.
MCQs in each chapter are a mix of questions based on theory & numerical & their level of difficulty is at par
with that of various competitive examinations like CBSE, AIIMS, CPMT, PMT, JIPMER, IIT, AIEEE, & the
likes.
This edition of Physics Vol. II has been conceptualized with a complete focus on the kind of assistance
students would require to answer tricky questions, which would give them an edge required to score in this
highly competitive exam.
Lastly, we are grateful to the publishers of this book for their persistent efforts, commitment to quality & their
unending support to bring out this book, without which it would have been difficult for us to partner with
students on this journey towards their success.

When no e.m.f is applied, the electrons move
randomly inside the conductor. When e.m.f is
applied, electrons drift opposite to the applied
e.m.f and collide with each other. Between the
collisions, average speed in the direction of
field is vd.

Resistivity of any material is its intrinsic
property and is constant at a particular
temperature. Resistivity does not depend upon
shape, length and radius.
Specific resistance depends on the nature of
material.
As temperature increases, the resistivity
increases and hence the relaxation time
