NEET Mock Test - 2026

Use \( v^2 = v_0^2 + 2 a x \).

Here, \( v = 30 \, \text{m/s} \), \( v_0 = 10 \, \text{m/s} \), \( x = 80 \, \text{m} \).

Substitute: \( (30)^2 = (10)^2 + 2 a (80) \Rightarrow 900 = 100 + 160 a \Rightarrow 160 a = 800 \Rightarrow a = 5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \).

The acceleration is \( 5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \).

\( E = \frac{h c}{\lambda} = \frac{1240}{400} = 3.1 \, \text{eV} \).

\( K_{\max} = e V_0 = 1.2 \, \text{eV} \).

\( \phi_0 = E - K_{\max} = 3.1 - 1.2 = 1.9 \, \text{eV} \).

\( \lambda_0 = \frac{h c}{\phi_0} = \frac{1240}{1.9} \approx 652.63 \, \text{nm} \).

For \( 7 \, \text{kg} \): \( 7g - T = 7a \Rightarrow 70 - T = 7a \).

For \( 10 \, \text{kg} \): \( T - f_k - F \cos 37^\circ = 10a \).

Normal force: \( N = mg + F \sin 37^\circ = 10 \times 10 + 40 \times 0.6 = 100 + 24 = 124 \, \text{N} \).

Friction: \( f_k = 0.35 \times 124 = 43.4 \, \text{N} \).

\( F \cos 37^\circ = 40 \times 0.8 = 32 \, \text{N} \).

Net force: \( T - 43.4 - 32 = 10a \Rightarrow T - 75.4 = 10a \).

Solve: \( 70 - T = 7a \), \( T - 75.4 = 10a \).

Substitute: \( 70 - (10a + 75.4) = 7a \Rightarrow 70 - 75.4 - 10a = 7a \Rightarrow -5.4 = 17a \).

\( a = \frac{-5.4}{17} \approx -0.318 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) (opposite direction, \( 7 \, \text{kg} \) ascends).

\( T - 75.4 = 10 \times (-0.318) \Rightarrow T - 75.4 = -3.18 \Rightarrow T \approx 72.22 \, \text{N} \).

In an n-type semiconductor, each pentavalent donor atom contributes one extra electron, making the electron concentration dependent on doping level, not just intrinsic generation.

\( \varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} B \omega R^2 \).

\( \varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} \times 0.3 \times 15 \times (0.4)^2 = 0.36 \, \text{V} \).

The maximum speed depends on radial forces (centripetal), not tangential acceleration, which affects speed change over time.

Formula for max speed on a banked road with friction: \( v_{\text{max}} = \sqrt{rg \frac{\mu_s + \tan\theta}{1 - \mu_s \tan\theta}} \).

Calculate the numerator: \( \mu_s + \tan\theta = 0.4 + 0.466 = 0.866 \).

Calculate the denominator: \( 1 - \mu_s \tan\theta = 1 - 0.4 \times 0.466 = 1 - 0.1864 = 0.8136 \).

Substitute: \( v_{\text{max}}^2 = 80 \times 10 \times \frac{0.866}{0.8136} \).

\( \frac{0.866}{0.8136} \approx 1.0645 \), so \( v_{\text{max}}^2 = 800 \times 1.0645 \approx 851.6 \).

\( v_{\text{max}} = \sqrt{851.6} \approx 29.18 \, \text{m/s} \).

The tangential acceleration doesn’t alter the radial friction limit, so this is the maximum speed before slipping.

Two identical capacitors in series (\( C_{\text{eq}} = \frac{C}{2} \)) with total voltage \( V \) each have voltage \( V/2 \), storing energy \( U_{\text{total}} = \frac{1}{2} \frac{C}{2} V^2 = \frac{1}{4} C V^2 \). Removing one, the remaining capacitor has capacitance \( C \) and voltage \( V \), storing \( U = \frac{1}{2} C V^2 \), which is greater (\( \frac{1}{2} C V^2 > \frac{1}{4} C V^2 \)). The energy increases because the same \( V \) across a larger effective capacitance (single \( C \)) stores more energy.

\( \tau = N I A B \sin \theta \), where \( \theta = 45^\circ \) to plane means \( \sin 45^\circ \) with normal.

\( \tau = 16 \times 2.2 \times 0.05 \times 0.7 \times \sin 45^\circ = 1.232 \times 0.707 = 0.871 \approx 0.87 \, \text{N m} \).

Focal length: \( f = -12 \, \text{cm} \) (concave lens).

Object distance: \( u = -24 \, \text{cm} \).

Lens formula: \( \frac{1}{v} - \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f} \).

\( \frac{1}{v} - \frac{1}{-24} = \frac{1}{-12} \Rightarrow \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{24} = \frac{1}{-12} \Rightarrow \frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{-12} - \frac{1}{24} = \frac{-2 - 1}{24} = \frac{-3}{24} = \frac{-1}{8} \).

\( v = -8 \, \text{cm} \) (virtual image).

A process is reversible if it can be reversed, returning both the system and surroundings to their original states without any net change elsewhere. This requires quasi-static conditions and no dissipative effects like friction.

\( \phi = \frac{q}{\varepsilon_0} \).

\( q = \phi \varepsilon_0 = 1.13 \times 10^5 \times 8.854 \times 10^{-12} = 1.0 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{C} = 1 \, \mu\text{C} \).

\( h = \frac{1}{2} g t^2 \), \( 80 = \frac{1}{2} g (4)^2 \Rightarrow 80 = 8 g \Rightarrow g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \).

Initial \( K = \frac{1}{2} \times 0.035 \times 1200^2 = 25200 \, \text{J} \).

Final \( K = 0.8 \times 25200 = 20160 \, \text{J} \).

\( \frac{1}{2} \times 0.035 \times v_f^2 = 20160 \Rightarrow v_f^2 = 1152000 \Rightarrow v_f = \sqrt{1152000} \approx 1073.3 \, \text{m/s} \).

\( \varepsilon = B l v \), \( l = 0.38 \, \text{m} \).

\( \varepsilon = 0.3 \times 0.38 \times 0.6 = 0.0684 \, \text{V} \approx 0.068 \, \text{V} \).

Resistance: \( R = \frac{\rho l}{A} \).

Rearrange: \( \rho = \frac{R A}{l} \).

Substitute: \( \rho = \frac{24 \times 3 \times 10^{-6}}{12} = 6 \times 10^{-6} \, \Omega \text{m} \).

Stokes’ law (\( F = 6 \pi \eta a v \)) shows that viscous force is proportional to radius (\( a \)), while weight (\( \frac{4}{3} \pi a^3 \rho g \)) depends on \( a^3 \). At terminal velocity, these balance, making \( v \propto a^2 \).

Gauss's Law for electricity states that the electric flux through a closed surface is proportional to the charge enclosed, given by \( \oint \mathbf{E} \cdot \mathrm{d} \mathbf{A} = \frac{Q}{\varepsilon_0} \).

Rutherford’s model lacks quantized energy levels, predicting continuous radiation as electrons accelerate, not discrete spectral lines.

Parallel resistance: \( \frac{1}{R_p} = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{3 + 2}{6} = \frac{5}{6} \Rightarrow R_p = \frac{6}{5} = 1.2 \, \Omega \).

Total resistance: \( R_{\text{total}} = 1 + 1.2 = 2.2 \, \Omega \).

Current: \( I = \frac{\varepsilon}{R_{\text{total}}} = \frac{6}{2.2} \approx 2.73 \, \text{A} \).

Effective \( k_{\text{eff}} = 2k = 2 \times 75 = 150 \, \text{N/m} \).

\( \omega = \sqrt{\frac{k_{\text{eff}}}{m}} = \sqrt{\frac{150}{1.5}} = \sqrt{100} = 10 \, \text{rad/s} \).

\( v = \frac{\omega}{2\pi} = \frac{10}{2 \times 3.14} \approx 1.59 \, \text{Hz} \).

Superconductors have \( \chi = -1 \) and exhibit perfect diamagnetism, expelling all magnetic field lines (Meissner effect).

\( a = 1, b = 1 \).

Speed of sound in a gas increases with temperature (\( v \propto \sqrt{T} \)), significantly altering its propagation, while frequency remains source-dependent and amplitude may vary less directly.

\( 0.05 \times 134 \times (1500 - T) = (0.6 \times 4186 + 0.1 \times 386) \times (T - 25) \).

\( 10050 - 6.7 T = (2511.6 + 38.6) \times (T - 25) = 2550.2 T - 63755 \).

\( 10050 + 63755 = 2550.2 T + 6.7 T \).

\( 73805 = 2556.9 T \Rightarrow T \approx 28.87^\circ \text{C} \approx 28.9^\circ \text{C} \).

Potential due to a point charge: \( V = \frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0} \frac{Q}{r} \).

Substitute: \( V = 9 \times 10^9 \times \frac{18 \times 10^{-9}}{6} = 9 \times 10^9 \times 3 \times 10^{-9} = 27 \, \text{V} \).

Impedance: \( Z = \sqrt{R^2 + (X_L - X_C)^2} = \sqrt{3^2 + (8 - 4)^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = 5 \, \Omega \).

Power factor: \( \cos \phi = \frac{R}{Z} = \frac{3}{5} = 0.6 \).

Force \( F = I l B \sin \theta \).

\( F = 4.5 \times 1.9 \times 0.3 \times \sin 45^\circ = 8.55 \times 0.3 \times 0.707 = 1.8127 \approx 1.81 \, \text{N} \).

\(v_{\text{rms}} \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{m}}\), \(\frac{v_{\text{CH}_4}}{v_{\text{O}_2}} = \sqrt{\frac{m_{\text{O}_2}}{m_{\text{CH}_4}}}\).

\(\frac{v_{\text{CH}_4}}{482} = \sqrt{\frac{32}{16}} = \sqrt{2} \approx 1.414\).

\(v_{\text{CH}_4} = 482 \times 1.414 \approx 682 \, \text{m/s}\).

\( T^2 \propto (R_E + h)^3 \).

\( T_0^2 = k R_E^3 \), \( h = 9 R_E \), \( r = 10 R_E \).

\( T^2 = k (10 R_E)^3 = 1000 k R_E^3 \).

\( T = T_0 \sqrt{1000} = 82 \times 31.62 \approx 2593 \, \text{min} \).

Given: \( m = 0.35 \, \text{A m}^2 \), \( B = 0.9 \, \text{T} \), \( \theta = 30^\circ \), \( \sin 30^\circ = 0.5 \).

\( \tau = 0.35 \times 0.9 \times 0.5 = 0.1575 \, \text{N m} \).

Horizontal velocity: v_x = 15 m/s (constant).

Vertical velocity: v_y = √(2gh) = √(2 × 10 × 45) = √900 = 30 m/s.

Speed v = √(v_x² + v_y²) = √(15² + 30²) = √(225 + 900) = √1125 ≈ 33.54 m/s.

Torque depends on the perpendicular distance from the axis to the line of action of the force (\( \tau = r F \sin \theta \)), so the point of application changes \( r \), altering the torque.

For a single object, the center of mass velocity equals the object’s velocity.

Shear stress: \( \frac{2 \times 10^4}{0.1} = 2 \times 10^5 \, \text{N/m}^2 \).

Substitute: \( \frac{14}{28} = \frac{10}{R_4} \).
