metal rod is enclosed in an insulated container. It is observed that the temperature (T) in the
metal rod changes with time (t) as

5. A particle is moved along a path AB-BC-CD-DE-EF-FA, as shown in figure, in presence of a force

F  (ayLˆ  2axJ)
ˆ N, Where x and y are in meter and  =-1 Nm-1. The work done on the particle by

As  = –1

This is now a perfect differential format whose work done is zero for a complete cycle.
Hence for –xj only WD needs to be calculated.
 W = 1×0.5 + 0.5 × 0.5
= 0.5 + 0.25
= 0.75 J

6. A planar structure of length L and width W is made of two different optical media of refractive
indices n1=1.5 and n2=1.44 as shown in figure. If L>>W. a ray entering from end AB will emerge
from end CD only if the total internal reflection condition is met inside the structure. For L=9.6m,
if the incident angle  is varried, the maximum time taken by ray to exit the plane CD is t x 10-
