7. A transparent slab of thickness d has a refractive index n (z) that
increases with z. Here z is the vertical distance inside the slab,
measured from the top. The slab is placed between two media with

medium 2 with refraction angle f with a lateral displacement l.

11. Two loudspeakers M and N are located 20 m apart and emit sound at frequencies 118 Hz and 121 Hz,

1800 m away from Q. Let v(t) represent the beat frequency measured by a person sitting in the car at time t. Let

Hence, (B) is correct.
If we assume the current in the wire towards right then as the flux in the loop increases we know that the induced
current in the wire is counter clockwise. Hence the current in the wire is towards right.
Field due to triangular loop at the location of infinite wire is into the paper. Hence, force on infinite wire is away
from the loop. Hence (C)
By cylindrical symmetry about infinite wire, rotation of triangular loop will not cause any additional EMF.
13. An incandescent bulb has a thin filament of tungsten that is heated to high temperature by passing an electric
current. The hot filament emits black-body radiation. The filament is observed to break up at random locations

(C) The filament emits more light at higher band of frequencies before it breaks up

46. Let RS be the diameter of the circle x 2 y 2 1 , where S is the point (1, 0). Let P be a variable point (other than
R and S) on the circle and tangents to the circle at S and P meet at the point Q. The normal to the circle at P
intersects a line drawn through Q parallel to RS at point E. Then the locus of E passes through the point(s).
