Hints and Solutions

PHYSICS

(1) Answer : (1)

Solution:
Two identical masses having equal speed, can have different velocities, so have different linear momenta.

(2) Answer : (4)

Solution:
Particle is in equilibrium when force acts on it, is zero.
Slope of momentum-time graph = force
Hence, force = 0, when slope of momentum-time graph is zero.

(3) Answer : (1)

Solution:
For perfectly elastic collision e = 1.

(4) Answer : (4)

Solution:
When two particles of equal masses perform head on elastic collision, then after collision their velocities get
exchanged.
vA = 0
vB = 10 m/s

Glycosidic bond is present in between sugar and nitrogen base in the structure of DNA
Solution:
Cellulose is a carbohydrate. It is a linear polymer of glucose molecules which are joined to each other via glycosidic
bonds.
In a nucleotide (cytidylic acid), glycosidic bond is formed between C1 of pentose sugar and N9 of purines or N1 of
pyrimidines.
(168)Answer : (4)
Solution:
An enzyme like any other protein molecule has primary, secondary and tertiary structure. At a tertiary structure, the
backbone of the protein chain folds upon itself, the chain criss-crosses itself and hence, many crevices or pockets are
made. One such pocket is the active site. An enzyme through its active site catalyses chemical reactions at high rate.

(169)Answer : (3)
Solution:
A general rule of thumb is that rate doubles or decreases by half for every 10°C change in either direction from optimum
temperature.
Hence, upon lowering of temperature from 40°C to 30°C, change in the rate of reaction would be from Y to Y/2.
(170)Answer : (1)
Solution:
Given graph represents the chemical reaction which is an exothermic reaction. If product is at a lower level than
substrate in terms of energy , the reaction is an exothermic reaction.
Enzymes eventually bring down the activation energy barrier making the transition of ‘S’ to ‘P’ more easily.
Stability and energy status of a molecule are inversely proportional to each other. Transition state is a high energy state
with low stability.

(174)Answer : (1)
Solution:
With the increase in substrate concentration, the velocity of the enzymatic reaction rises at first. The reaction ultimately
reaches a Vmax which is not exceeded by any further rise in the concentration of the substrate. This is because, all the
enzyme molecules are fully saturated with substrate.
(175)Answer : (4)
Solution:
Connective tissues are the most abundant and widely distributed tissues in the body of complex animals.
They are named connective tissue because of their special function of linking and supporting other tissues/organs of
the body.
In all connective tissues except blood, the cells secrete fibres of structural proteins called collagen or elastin. These
fibres provide strength, elasticity and flexibility to the tissues; they are not excitable.

(176)Answer : (4)
Solution:
Bones have a hard and non-pliable ground substance rich in calcium salts and collagen fibres which give bone its
strength. The bone cells (osteocytes) are present in the spaces called lacunae. Limb bones, such as the long bones of
