Indian National Physics Olympiad – 2019
Date: 03 February 2019. Time: 09:00–12:00 (3 hours). Maximum Marks: 75.
Roll Number: . Extra sheets attached: [blank box]. Centre (e.g. Kota): [blank line].
(Do not write below this line)
- This booklet consists of 29 pages (excluding this page) and total of 7 questions.
- This booklet is divided in two parts: Questions with Summary Answer Sheet and Detailed Answer Sheet. Write roll number at the top wherever asked.
- The final answer to each sub-question should be neatly written in the box provided below each sub-question in the Questions & Summary Answer Sheet.
- You are also required to show your detailed work for each question in a reasonably neat and coherent way in the Detailed Answer Sheet. You must write the relevant Question Number(s) on each of these pages.
- Marks will be awarded on the basis of what you write on both the Summary Answer Sheet and the Detailed Answer Sheet. Simple short answers and plots may be directly entered in the Summary Answer Sheet. Marks may be deducted for absence of detailed work in questions involving longer calculations. Strike out any rough work that you do not want to be considered for evaluation.
- Adequate space has been provided in the answersheet for you to write/calculate your answers. In case you need extra space to write, you may request additional blank sheets from the invigilator. Write your roll number on the extra sheets and get them attached to your answersheet and indicate number of extra sheets attached at the top of this page.
- Non-programmable scientific calculators are allowed. Mobile phones cannot be used as calculators.
- Use blue or black pen to write answers. Pencil may be used for diagrams/graphs/sketches.
- This entire booklet must be returned at the end of the examination.

Условие
A pair of long parallel metallic rails of negligible resistance and separation are placed horizontally. A horizontal metal rod (dark thick line) of mass and resistance is placed perpendicularly onto the rails at one end (as shown). A uniform magnetic field exists perpendicular to the plane of the paper (pointing into the page). One end of the rail track is connected to a key () and a capacitor of capacitance charged to voltage . At the key is closed. Neglect friction and self inductance of the loop.

a) What is the final speed () attained by the rod?
Summary answer box: [blank]. [6 т.]
b) Consider the ratio of the maximum kinetic energy attained by the rod to the energy initially stored in the capacitor. What is , the maximum possible value of , by appropriately choosing ?
