hmm.. let's see.. it is given : 500 lines in 1 mm, therefore, 1 line = 0.001/500 = 2 * 10^-6
the general equation to find the maximum no. of order, i.e the maximum no. of images = d/lamba = (2 * 10^-6)/(600*10^-9) = 3.33 so, the maximum no. or order is 3, but, you have to consider the other 3 images at position Z, hmm.. firstly, zero order is at position Y, so, that's one image, then there are three orders, i.e, three images at position X as well as at position Z, therefore, altogether there are 7 images, 3 images at position X, 1 image at position Y, and 3 images at position Z.. I hope you understand my explanations.. heheh.. :)

o_O umm...i'm sorry but i still don't get it. how do you know there is only one at Y and 3 at X and Z. :confused::unsure:

^Me too, I, too, need help in that question.

Anyways, can someone help me out in May/June 2007; questions- 8, 13. 24. 28. 33. 34. 36 and 40? I got stuck in these questions..

8) u=o
s=40
for the first 30 m:
2as = v^2 - u^2
2(10)(30) = v^2 - 0
v = 24.5 m/s
this v will be initial speed for the last 10 m
so for the last 10 m:
s = ut + (1/2)at^2
10 = 24.5t + 5t^2
t = 0.38 or -5.3
so t is 0.38

13) torque is force*perpendicular distance
the perpendicular distance is not given. the distance given is hypotenuse so we will calculate the perpendicular distance by 0.6sin60
so torque will be 0.6sin60 * 8 = 4.2

33) at point s, voltage is v1. in the first branch the voltage is divided in 1:1 ratio. so v1 is 1 volts
in second branch the voltage on 3 ohm resistor is 3/5 * 2 = 1.2 volts
v1 - v2 = 1.2 - 1
= -0.2 volts

34)the initial reading is 4 V across the LDR. the resistance decreases when light increases. resistance and voltage are directly proportional. so the possible value of voltage will be less than 4 V that is 3V

36:I = V/ R , 3 / 6 = .5A. now use this to find the voltage consumed by the internal resistance which is .5 X 2 = 1 V , Terminal voltage will be 3-1= 2 volt, useful output power => p=VI 2 into .5 = 1 W

40: idk

Assalamoalaikum wr wb!!
Just sharing an mcq...i got stuck in it but then understood :D
It's Q:27 of Nov:2011 Paper 13

Ans is D.

That's bcoz there is interference, so when when one wave is removed, amplitude becomes halved. Since intensity is proportional to square of amplitude, it will become 1/4 as amplitude becomes 1/2

o_O umm...i'm sorry but i still don't get it. how do you know there is only one at Y and 3 at X and Z. :confused::unsure:

Sorry for the late reply, been busy lately.. heheh.. :p hmm.. I'm gonna make it simple.. I have calculated that the no. of maximum order is 3, we know that at position Y, it is zero order, which means, only one image can be seen at position Y, next, at position X, there are 1st order which is right above position Y, 2nd, and 3rd order, therefore, there are three images at position X, same goes to position Z, 1st order, which is right below position Y, then 2nd and 3rd order, thus, there are seven images altogether.. :)

*no. of order = no. of images*
