XtraEdge for IIT-JEE 1 FEBRUARY 2011

Dear Students,
It's the question you dreamed about when you were ten years old. It's the
question our parents nagged you about during high school. It's the question that
stresses most of us out more and more the older we get. "What do you want to
be when you grow up?"
There are people who are studying political science but hate politics, nursing
majors who hate biology, and accounting majors who hate math. Obviously, a
lot of people are confused about what exactly it is that they want to spend their
life doing. Think about it. if you work for 10 hours each day, you're going to
end up spending over 50% of your awake life at work. Personally, I think it's
important that we spend that 50% of your awake life at work. Personally, I think
it's important that we spend that 50% wisely. But how can you make sure that
you do? Here are some cool tips for how to decide that you really want to be
when you grow up.
Relax and Keep an Open Mind: Contrary to popular belief, you don't have
to "choose a career" and stick with it for the rest of your life. You never
have to sign a contract that says, "I agree to force myself to do this for the
rest of my life" You're free to do whatever you want and the possibilities are
endless. So relax, dream big, and keep an open mind.
Notice Your Passions: Every one of us is born with an innate desire to do
something purposeful with our lives. We long to do something that we're
passionate about; something that will make a meaningful impact on the
world.
Figure Out How to Use Your Passions for a Larger Purpose: You notice that
this is one of your passions, so you decide to become a personal trainer.
Making a positive impact on the world will not only ensure that you are
successful financially, it will also make you feel wonderful. It's proven
principle: The more you give to the world, the more the world will give you
in return.
Figure Our How You Can Benefit: Once you've figured out what your
passions are and how you can use those passions to add value to the world
& to yourself, it's time to take the last step: figure out how you can make
great success doing it. my most important piece of advice about this last
step is to remember just that: It's the last part of the decision process. I feel
sorry for people who choose an occupation based on the average income for
that field. No amount of money can compensate for a life wasted at a job
that makes you miserable. However, that's not to say that the money isn't
important. Money is important, and I'm a firm believer in the concept that
no matter what it is that you love doing, there's at least one way to make
extraordinary money doing it. So be creative!
No matter how successful you become, how great your life is, or how beautiful
you happen to be... there will still be times when you simply feel like you're an
ugly mess. But when those times come, remember that all you need to get
yourself back on track is a positive outlook, a dash of self confidence, and the
willingness to make yourself feel better as soon as you know how.
Simply discover your passions, figure out how to use your passions to make an
impact on the world & to yourself.
Presenting forever positive ideas to your success.

Yours truly

Success Tips for the Months

"The way to succeed is to double your error
rate."
"Success is the ability to go from failure to
failure without losing your enthusiasm."
"Success is the maximum utilization of the
ability that you have."
We are all motivated by a keen desire for
praise, and the better a man is, the more he
is inspired to glory.
Along with success comes a reputation for
wisdom.
They can, because they think they can.
Nothing can stop the man with the right
mental attitude from achieving his goal;
nothing on earth can help the man with the
wrong mental attitude.
Keep steadily before you the fact that all
true success depends at last upon yourself.

Dr. Abdul Kalams Message to
Every Indian
What does a system consist of? Very
conveniently for us it consists of our
neighbours, other households, other
cities, other communities and the
government. But definitely not me and
YOU. When it comes to us actually
making a positive contribution to the
system we lock ourselves along with
our families into a safe cocoon and
look into the distance at countries far
away and wait for a Mr.Clean to come
along & work miracles for us with a
majestic sweep of his hand or we
leave the country and run away.
ASK WHAT WE CAN DO FOR
INDIA AND DO WHAT HAS TO BE
DONE TO MAKE INDIA WHAT
AMERICA AND OTHER WESTERN
COUNTRIES ARE TODAY

Two Mumbai CAT toppers are
from IIT-Bombay
Three people, who appeared for CAT
from the city, scored 100 percentile.
Two of them are from the computer
science department of the IIT-B. The
other is a faculty member of a city-
based coaching institute.
Shashank Samant, 22, who scored
99.98 percentile on his last attempt in
2008, gave up the IIM seat to take up
a job. After a year and a half job in
an investment firm, I was finally
prepared to get in to an IIM. Though
the 100 percentile was unexpected.
After clearing the CAT, I spoke to
my peers and seniors at IIT-B and
decided that work experience would
be important before getting in to the
IIMs, said Samant. He also added
that IITs help in developing the
aptitude to clear any competitive
exams. Samant had graduated in
computer science from IIT-B in 2009.
About his choice of IIMs, Samant
said, I am ready to get in to any of
the IIMs though I prefer IIM-
Ahmedabad and Bangalore over
others.
Gaurav Malpani, a fourth-year student
of computer science at IIT-B has
appeared for the entrance exam from
Mumbai, he is originally from Kolkata.
He managed to score100 percentile,
without any coaching.
I have never focused on developing
my technical knowledge. I was only
polishing my problem solving skills. I
also focused on my vocabulary, said
21-year-old Malpani. He insisted that
he had never studied exclusively for
CAT during the year. I always knew
that I had the aptitude to score well, but
scoring 100 percentile was not
expected, he added.
I would love to join IIM-Ahmedabad
or Bangalore. Since I am from Kolkata,
I will also consider seeking admission
there. I am interested in pursuing an
MBA in either finance or human
resources, he added. The faculty
member of a city-based coaching
institute Jose DAbreu also got a
perfect score.

IIT Techfest 2011: The Robots
Raged
It was the perfect way to end a very
well-planned event. On the first two
days of Techfest, IIT Bombay was
buzzing with exhibits of some cool
robots and a few other inventions as
well. On the final day, the robots
became restless and just wanted to have
a go at each other. What followed was a
lengthy battle fought hard and long.
Mars Manoeuvre This tournament had
two robots moving around a grid
collecting blocks. The team that
collected the most blocks won. The last
battle was between C2R and Black
Beast, from Thailand and Australia
respectively.
Black Beast: In all its glory
Black Beast was the creation of second
year students from the Department of
Electrical & Computer Science at
Swinburne University of Technology
in Melbourne. Plagued with exams
and other academic diseases, they
still managed to build this in about
two weeks.

Kids at Swinburne Uni, came
second with a smile
Their robots communicated through
radio frequency waves and
everything, right from the wheels to
the circuit boards was custom made.
One robot would go and measure the
dimensions of the grid. The second,
after getting the information would
start its mission of picking up blocks.

Can it say, "Thai, Robot"?
C2R was made by third year students
of the computer engineering
department of the Kasetsart
University in Kapmphaeng Saen,
Thailand. These kids spent two
months and about Rs. 1,47,000
(100,000 Thai Bath) to make these
robots.

Kasetsart University students with
the C2R
XtraEdge for IIT-JEE 5 FEBRUARY 2011
Unlike the kids of Oz, they chose to
use only one robot which would find
its way and collect blocks. These
robots also used radio frequency
technology to communicate and had
sensors, so that the robot never drifted
away from the grid lines. The battle
ensued and it was clear that spending
more time with your robot makes
them strong and obedient. In fact, they
can also win you competitions! C2R
won the Mars Manoeuvre competition
and prize money of Rs. 1,50,000. The
kids demonstrated how they won the
battle. Check out the video below.

IIT-Bombay gets $3 million gift
More than 40 years ago a quiet
student named Victor Menezes
graduated from the Indian Institute of
Technology Bombay (IIT-B). He
went on to become, among other
things, the senior vice-chairperson of
Citigroup Inc. His small way to say
thank you to the institute has
translated into a $3 million
(about Rs 13.5 crore) towards a state-
of-the-art convention centre on the
institutes Powai campus
I received priceless education from
IIT Bombay and this is a small way
to say thank you, said Menezes. I
hope the centre will help support the
exchange of ideas at IIT Bombay.

IIT-JEE candidates to get
performance cards now
Students appearing for the next Joint
Entrance Examination (JEE) for
admission to IITs will get
performance cards specifying marks
and the ranks secured by them in the
test. However, as per the new
provision, they cannot seek regrading
or re-totalling.
For the first time, the JEE Board
would issue performance cards which
can be considered as certificates by
many other institutions wanting to
give admission to JEE candidates. The
board will also put out the answers of
the questions on its website to help
students make assessment of their
performance.
IIT Guwahati Director Prof Gautam
Baruah said the board had urged for
issuing such performance cards which
would serve as certificates for the
students. Many other institutes, which
want to take JEE candidates, can give
admission to students on the basis of
these performance cards, Baruah said.

Indian institute of Science will
start management course
Indian Institute of Science (IISc.) is
planning to start a two-year Master
programme in management from this
academic session. The new courses will
be very advance as it will concentrate
more on technology management and
business analytics.
IISc registrar R Mohan Das said the
course would concentrate on synergies
between managing science and
technology. Das said, India, in recent
times, has emerged as one of the global
hubs of technology and research and
development (R&D) units. Such
technology-based and R&D-intensive
industries need executives with
exposure and training in technology
management and business analytics.
The program has been specially
designed to train students in technology
management and business analytics.
The course will be conducted by the
department of management studies,
which was established in the year 1848,
and is one of the oldest schools in the
country. An official at the dept. said
that application forms for the course
will be available from the month of
February. Candidates who have passed
the Joint Entrance Test (JMET) with
first class BE/B.Tech degree/equivalent
is eligible for the course. The
department will conduct group
discussion and personal interview
before selecting students for the course.
IIT Mandi to formulate plan for
solving technical problems
pertaining to agriculture in
Himachal Pradesh
Shimla: Shri Ram Subhag Singh,
Secretary, Agriculture and Information
and Public Relations said that H.P.
Agriculture Department and IIT Mandi
would formulate a long term scheme
for solving technical problems
pertaining to agriculture and a Joint
Working Group at State level would
be formed for solving the problems
relating to farm technology.

Vineet Buch still remembers 10 June 1987. Bhopal. The
Indian Institute of Technology All India Joint Entrance
Exam (IIT-JEE) results were announced. Buch, then a 15-
year-old dabbling with career choices, scanned through the
rank-holders list. Then he scanned it again. Soon he made
up his mind. He would try and finish No. 1 in the entrance
exam. It seemed like a cool thing to do.
Every year thousands of Indian students aspire to get into
an IIT. Close to 400,000 candidates lined up this year. One
in 65 made the cut. Twenty years ago, the number of
applicants wasnt as staggering but there were fewer seats.
Golfers will tell you that the odds of an amateur pulling off
a hole-in-one are 1 in 12,750. Still, thats a doddle
compared to what Buch was up against.
Hardly anyone in Bhopal even wrote the JEE, let alone
got in, says Buch, 37, a venture capitalist based in San
Francisco. I found it tough to get the right books, like a
Russian physics book by IE Irodov. My parents [who were
IAS officers] requested the Indian embassy in Moscow to
photocopy the book and send it across.
In June 1989, Buch was declared No. 1 in the IIT JEE
exam, arguably the most challenging and competitive
exam in the world. Only around 50 Indians have
experienced the feelingthe numbness, the ecstasy, the
dizziness.
Once every year, JEE toppers appear on television and
newspapers carry congratulatory messages. You see mug
shots of students, interviews with parents, and
advertisements for coaching centres. We spend a lot of
time celebrating their success, but rarely do we look
further.
What becomes of these brilliant 17-year-olds? What are
the challenges they encounter? Do any of them pursue
unconventional careers? These were some of the questions
Open set out with while tracking down the very elite group
of JEE toppers.
IT HELPS TO BE NO. 1
During his days in IIT Kanpur, Buch was a long-distance
athlete, weightlifter and footballer. He competed in both
the 5,000 and 10,000 metres. But in August 1993, a doctor
at Delhis All India Institute of Medical Sciences
diagnosed the 20-year-old with ankylosing spondylitis, a
progressively crippling disease without a cure.
Buch suffered inflammation of the eyes and internal
organs. Sometimes it was so hard for me to even sit, stand
or sleep, he recalls. Things got progressively worse over
his two-year graduate program at Cornell University.
When I finished in 1995, I was immobilised throughout
much of my body. A doctor advised me to stop working
and apply for disability payments.
Buch refused. He moved to San Francisco and started a
self-directed rehabilitation programme. He began with
long sessions of swimming and gradually started to walk,
bike and hike. In 2001, he successfully undertook the
Death Ride over five alpine passes on the Sierra Nevada
mountain range in California, US. But biking hurt his
knees. Searching for a sport that didnt tax his legs, he
discovered surf skiing, one that uses a long, narrow,
lightweight kayak with an open cockpit and a foot-pedal
controlled rudder. On 17 May, Buch took part in the 2009
Molokai Challenge in Hawaii, a 32-mile surf ski race
between Molokai and Oahu, in rough waters swarming
with tiger sharks. He finished the race.
I thought being No 1 in JEE was tough, says Buch. But
overcoming this disease has been something else. The JEE
effort definitely helped with thisI knew the levels of
determination I was capable of and refused to give up.

meson) moves in a circular orbit around a nucleus of
charge + 3e. (Take the mass of the nucleus to be
infinite). Assuming that the bohr model of the atom is
applicable to this system.
(i) Derive an expression for the radius of the nth Bohr
orbit.
(ii) Find the value of n for which the radius of the orbit
is approximately the same as that of the first Bohr
orbit for the hydrogen atom.
(iii) Find the wavelength of the radiation emitted when
the mu-meson jumps from the third orbit of the first
orbit. [IIT-1988]
Sol. (i) Let m be the mass of electron. Then the mass of
mu-meson is 208 m. According to Bohr's
postualte, the angular momentum of mu-meson
should be an integral multiple of h/2.

11. The curve y = ax
3
+ bx
2
+ cx + 5, touches the x-axis at
P(2, 0) and cuts the y axis at a point Q, where its
gradient is 3. Find a, b, c. [IIT-1994]
Sol. It is given that y = ax
3
+ bx
2
+ cx + 5 touches x-axis at
P(2, 0) which implies that x-axis is tangent at
(2, 0) and the curve is also passes through (2, 0).
The curve cuts y-axis at (0, 5) and gradient at this
point is given 3 therefore at (0, 5) slope of the tangent
is 3.
Now,
dx
dy
= 3ax
2
+ 2bx + c
since x-axis is tangent at (2, 0) therefore

2 = x
dx
dy
= 0
0 = 3a(2)

Since, the curve passes through (2, 0), we get
0 = a(2)
3
+ b(2)
2
+ c(2) + 5
0 = 8a + 4b 2c + 5 ...(3)
from (1) and (2), we get
12a 4b = 3 ...(4)
from (3) and (2), we get
8a + 4b = 1 ...(5)
adding (4) and (5), we get
4a = 2
a = 1/2
Putting a = 1/2 in (4), we get
12(1/2) 4b = 3
6 4b = 3
3 = 4b
b = 3/4
Hence, a = 1/2, b = 3/4 and c = 3

i. Velocity of the particle may be constant, if forces
of electric and magnetic fields balance each other.
Then, path of particle will be straight line. Also,
path of particle may be helical if magnetic and
electric fields are in same direction. But path of
particle cannot be circular. Path can be circular if
only magnetic field is present, or if some other
forces is present which can cancel the effect of
electric field.

ii. At t = 5s, there is no change in flux, so induced
e.m.f. is zero
iii. At t = 9s, flux is increasing in upward direction
hence induced e.m.f. will be in clockwise
direction.
iv. At t = 15s, flux is decreasing in upward direction,
so induced e.m.f. will be in anticlockwise
direction.

4. Option [A,B,D] is correct
Rate of work done by external agent is
de/dt = BIL.dx/dt = BILv and thermal power
dissipated in resistor = eI = (BvL) I clearly both are

If applied external force is doubled, the rod will
experience a net force and hence acceleration. As a
result velocity increase, hence (B).
Since, I = e/R
On doubling R, current and hence required power
become half.
Since, P = BILv

WHAT ARE EARTHQUAKES?


Earthquakes like hurricanes are not only super
destructive forces but continue to remain a mystery
in terms of how to predict and anticipate them. To
understand the level of destruction associated with
earthquakes you really need to look at some
examples of the past.
If we go back to the 27th July 1976 in Tangshan,
China, a huge earthquake racked up an official
death toll of 255,000 people. In addition to this an
estimated 690,000 were also injured, whole
families, industries and areas were wiped out in the
blink of a second. The scale of destruction is hard to
imagine but earthquakes of all scales continue to
happen all the time.
So what exactly are they ? Well the earths outer
layer is made up of a thin crust divided into a
number of plates. The edges of these plates are
referred to as boundaries and its at these
boundaries that the plates collide, slide and rub
against each other. Over time when the pressure at
the plate edges gets too much, something has to
give which results in the sudden and often violent
tremblings we know as earthquakes.
The strength of an earthquake is measured using a
machine called a seismograph. It records the
trembling of the ground and scientists are able to
measure the exact power of the quake via a scale
known as the richter scale. The numbers range from
1-10 with 1 being a minor earthquake (happen
multiple times per day and in most case we dont
even feel them) and 7-10 being the stronger quakes
(happen around once every 10-20 years). Theres a
lot to learn about earthquakes so hopefully well
release some more cool facts in the coming months.

1. A trolley initially at rest with a solid cylinder placed
on its bed such that cylinder axis makes angle with
direction of motion of trolley as shown in Figure
starts to move forward with constant acceleration a.
If initial distance of mid point of cylinder axis from
rear edge of trolley bed is d, calculate the distance s
which the trolley goes before the cylinder rolls off the
edge of its horizontal bed. Assume dimensions of
cylinder to be very small in comparison to other
dimensions. Neglect slipping.

d


Calculate also, frictional force acting on the cylinder.
Sol. Since, axis of cylinder is inclined at angle with the
direction of motion of trolley, therefore components
of acceleration a of trolley are acos along axis of
cylinder and asin normal to axis of the cylinder.
Cylinder rolls backward due to this normal
component asin.
Let mass and radius of cylinder be m and r
respectively and let angular acceleration of cylinder
be .
Due to angular acceleration, cylinder axis has
acceleration relative to trolley bed, which will be
equal to r normal to cylinder axis. But component
of acceleration of trolley normal to cylinder axis is
asin. Therefore, net acceleration of cylinder axis is
(asin r) normal to axis.
Consider free body diagram of the cylinder as shown

Note : There are two components of friction (i) F

The cylinder will roll off the edge of trolley bed
when its centre of mass reaches the edge. Since.
cylinder axis is inclined at an angle '' with direction
of motion of trolley, therefore, its centre of mass
follows a straight line path relative to the trolley bed,
and that straight line is normal to cylinder axis.
Hence, displacement of centre of mass of the cylinde,
relative to trolley is equal to (d. cosec ).

thermal resistance of the given conductor, it may be
assumed to be composed of thin co-axial cylindrical

Matter Waves :
Planck's quantum theory : Wave-particle duality -
Planck gave quantum theory while explaining the
radiation spectrum of a black body. According to
Planck's theory, energy is always exchanged in
integral multiples of a quanta of light or photon.
Each photon has an energy E that depends only
on the frequency of electromagnetic radiation
and is given by :
E = h .....(1)
where h = 6.6 10
34
joule-sec, is Planck's
constant. In any interaction, the photon either
gives up all of its energy or none of it.
From Einstein's mass-energy equivalence
principle, we have
E = mc
2
.....(2)
Using equations (1) and (2), we get ;
mc
2
= h or m =
2
c
h
.....(3)
where m represents the mass of a photon in
motion. The velocity v of a photon is equal to
that of light, i.e., v = c.
According to theory of relativity, the rest mass m
0

of a photon is given by :
m
0
=
2
2
c
v
1 m
Here, m =
2
c
h
and v = c
Hence, m
0
= 0 ....(4)
i.e., rest mass of photon is zero, i.e., energy of
photon is totally kinetic.

The momentum p of each photon is given by :
p = mc =
2
c
h
c =
c
h
=
/ c
h
=

h
......(5)
The left hand side of the above equation involves
the particle aspect of photons (momentum) while
the right hand side involves the wave aspect
(wavelength) and the Planck's constant is the
bridge between the two sides. This shows that
electromagnetic radiation exhibits a wave-
particle duality. In certain circumstances, it
behaves like a wave, while in other circumstances
it behaves like a particle.
The wave-particle is not the sole monopoly of
e.m. waves. Even a material particle in motion
according to de Broglie will have a wavelength.
The de Broglie wavelength of the matter waves
is also given by :

Photoelectric effect :
When light of suitable frequency (electromagnetic
radiation) is allowed to fall on a metal surface,
electrons are emitted from the surface. These
electrons are known as photoelectrons and the effect
is known as photoelectric effect. Photoelectric
effect, light energy is converted into electrical
energy.
Laws of photolectric effect :
The kinetic energy of the emitted electron is
independent of intensity of incident radiation.
But the photoelectric current increases with the
increase of intensity of incident radiation.
The kinetic energy of the emitted electron
depends on the frequency of the incident
radiation. It increases with the increase of
frequency of incident radiation.
If the frequency of the incident radiation is less
than a certain value, then photoelectric emission
is not possible. This frequency is known as
threshold frequency. This threshold frequency
varies from emitter to emitter, i.e., depends on
the material.
There is no time lag between the arrival of light
and the emission of photoelectrons, i.e., it is an
instantaneous phenomenon.
Matter Waves, Photo-electric Effect

PHYSICS FUNDAMENTAL FOR IIT-JEE
KEY CONCEPTS & PROBLEM SOLVING STRATEGY
XtraEdge for IIT-JEE 23 FEBRUARY 2011
Failure of wave theory :
Wave theory of light could not explain the laws of
photoelectric effect.
According to wave theory, the kinetic energy of
the emitted electrons should increase with the
increase of intensity of incident radiation.
Kinetic energy of the emitted electron does not
depend on the frequency of incident radiation
according to wave theory.
Wave theory failed to explain the existence of
threshold frequency.
According to wave theory there must be a time
lag between the arrival of light and emission of
photoelectrons.
Einstein's theory of photoelectric effect :
Einstein explained the laws of photoelectric effect
on the basis of Planck's quantum theory of
radiation.
Einstein treated photoelectric effect as a collision
between a photon and an atom in which photon is
absorbed by the atom and an electron is emitted.
According to law of conservation of energy,
h = h
0
+
2
1
mv
2

where h is the energy of the incident photon; hv
0

is the minimum energy required to detach the
electron from the atom (work function or
ionisation energy) and (1/2) mv
2
is the kinetic
energy of the emitted electron.
The above equation is known as Einstein's
photoelectric equation. Kinetic energy of the
emitted electron,
=
2
1
mv
2
= h(
0
) = h W
Explanation of laws of photoelectric effect :
(a) The KE of the emitted electron increases with the
increase of frequency of incident radiation since
W (work function) is constant for a given emitter.
KE is directly proportional to (
0
)
(b) Keeping the frequency of incident radiation
constant if the intensity of incident light is
increased, more photons collide with more atoms
and more photoelectrons are emitted. The KE of
the emitted electron remains constant since the
same photon collides with the same atom (i.e., the
nature of the collision does not change). With the
increase in the intensity of incident light
photoelectric current increases.
(c) According to Einstein's equation, if the frequency
of incident radiation is less than certain minimum
value, the photoelectric emission is not possible.
This frequency is known as threshold frequency.
Hence, the frequency of incident radiation below
which photoelectric emission is not possible is
known as threshold frequency or cut-off
frequency. It is given by :

0
=
h
mv ) 2 / 1 ( h
2


On the other hand, if the wavelength of the
incident radiation is more than certain critical
value, then photoelectric emission is not possible.
This wavelength is known as threshold
wavelength of cut-off wavelength. It is given by :

0
=
] mv ) 2 / 1 ( h [
hc
2


(d) Since Einstein treated photoelectric effect as a
collision between a photon and an atom, he
explained the instantaneous nature of
photoelectric effect.
Some other important points :
Stopping potential : The negative potential
applied to the collector in order to prevent the

Thermal Expansion :
.(a) When the temperature of a substance is increased,
it expands. The heat energy which is supplied to
the substance is gained by the constituent
particles of the substance as its kinetic energy.
Because of this the collisions between the
constituents particles are accompanied with
greater force which increase the distance between
the constituent particles.

Problem solving Strategy : Thermal Expansion
Step 1: Identify the relevant concepts: Decide
whether the problem involves changes in length
(linear thermal expansion) or in volume (volume
thermal expansion)
Step 2: Set up the problem using the following steps:
Eq. L = L
0
T for linear expansion and
Eq. V = V
0
T for volume expansion.
Identify which quantities in Eq. L = L
0
T or
V = V
0
T are known and which are the
unknown target variables.
Step 3: Execute the solution as follows:
Solve for the target variables. Often you will be
given two temperatures and asked to compute T.
Or you may be given an initial temperature T
0
and
asked to find a final temperature corresponding to
a given length or volume change. In this case,
plan to find T first; then the final temperature is
T
0
+ T.
Unit consistency is crucial, as always. L
0
and L
(or V
0
V) must have the same units, and if you
use a value or or in K
1
or (C)
1
, then T
must be in kelvins or Celsius degrees (C). But
you can use K and C interchangeably.
Step 4: Evaluate your answer: Check whether your
results make sense. Remember that the sizes of holes
in a material expand with temperature just as the
same way as any other linear dimension, and the
volume of a hole (such as the volume of a container)
expands the same way as the corresponding solid
shape.
Problem solving strategy : Thermodynamics I
st
Law
Step 1: Identify the relevant concepts : The first law
of thermodynamics is the statement of the law of
conservation of energy in its most general form. You
can apply it to any situation in which you are
concerned with changes in the internal energy of a
system, with heat flow into or out of a system, and/or
with work done by or on a system.
Step 2: Set up the problem using the following steps
Carefully define what the thermodynamics system is.
The first law of thermodynamics focuses on
systems that go through thermodynamic
processes. Some problems involve processes
with more than one step. so make sure that you
identify the initial and final state for each step.
Identify the known quantities and the target
variables.
Check whether you have enough equations. The
first law, U = Q W, can be applied just once to
each step in a thermodynamic process, so you will
often need additional equations. These often
include Eq.

=
2
1
V
V
dV p W for the work done in a
volume change and the equation of state of the
material that makes up the thermodynamic system
(for an ideal gas, pV = nRT).
Step 3: Execute the solution as follows :
You shouldn't be surprised to be told that
consistent units are essential. If p is a Pa and V in
m
3
, then W is in joules. Otherwise, you may want
to convert the pressure and volume units into
units of Pa and m
3
. If a heat capacity is given in
terms of calories, usually the simplest procedure
is to convert it to joules. Be especially careful
with moles. When you use n = m
tot
/M to convert
XtraEdge for IIT-JEE 29 FEBRUARY 2011
between total mass and number of moles,
remember that if m
tot
is in kilograms, M must be
in kilograms per mole. The usual units for M are
grams per mole; be careful !
The internal energy change U in any
thermodynamic process or series of processes in
independent of the path, whether the substance is
an ideal gas or not. This point is of the utmost
importance in the problems in this topic.
Sometimes you will be given enough information
about one path between the given initial and final
states to calculate U for that path. Since U is
the same for every possible path between the
same two states, you can then relate the various
energy quantities for other paths.
When a process consists of several distinct steps,
it often helps to make a chart showing Q, W, and
U for each step. Put these quantities for each
step on a different line, and arrange them so the
Q's, W's, and U's form columns. Then you can
apply the first law to each line ; in addition, you
can add each column and apply the first law to the
sums. Do you see why ?
Using above steps, solve for the target variables.
Step 4: Evaluate your answer : Check your results for
reasonableness. In particular, make sure that each of
your answers has the correct algebraic sign.
Remember that a positive Q means that heat flows
into the system, and that a negative Q means that heat
flows into the system, and that a negative Q means
that heat flows out of the system. A positive W
means that work is done by the system on its
environment, while a negative W means that work is
done on the system by its environment.

These steps are repeated until all hydrogen atoms

Sodium borohydride is a less powerful reducing
agent than lithium aluminum hydride. Lithium
aluminum hydride reduces acids, aldehydes, and

Lithium aluminum hydride reacts violently with
water, and therefore reductions with lithium
aluminum hydride must be carried out in anhydrous
solutions, usually in anhydrous ether. (Ethyl acetate
is added cautiously after the reaction is over to
decompose excess LiAlH
4
; then water is added to
decompose the aluminum complex.) Sodium
borohydride reductions, by contrast, can be carried
out in water or alcohol solutions.
The Addition of Ylides : The Wittig reaction :
Aldehydes and ketones react with phosphorus ylides
to yield alkenes and triphenylphosphine oxide. (An
ylide is a neutral molecule having a negative carbon
adjacent to a positive heteroatom.) Phosphorus ylides
are also called phosphoranes :

This reaction, known as the Wittig reaction, has
proved to be a valuable method for synthesizing
alkenes. The Wittig reaction is applicable to a wide
variety of compounds, and although a mixture of (E)
and (Z) isomers may result, the Wittig reaction offers
a great advantage over most other alkene syntheses in
that no ambiguity exists as to the location of the
double bond in the product. (This is in contrast to E1
eliminations, which may yield multiple alkene
products by rearrangement to more stable carbocation
intermediates, and both E1 and E2 elimination
reactions, which may produce multiple products
when different hydrogens are available for
removal.)
Phosphorus ylides are easily prepared from
triphenylphosphine and primary or secondary alkyl
halides. Their preparation involves two reactions :

The first reaction is a nucleophilic substitution
reaction. Triphenylphosphine is an excellent
nucleophile and a weak base. It reacts readily with 1
and 2 alkyl halide by an S
N
2 mechanism to displace
a halide ion from the alkyl halide to give an
alkyltriphenylphosphonium salt. The second reaction
is an acid-base reaction. A strong base (usually an
alkyllithium or phenyllithium) removes a proton from
the carbon that is attached to phosphorus to give the
ylide.
Phosphorus ylides can be represented as a hybrid of
the two resonance structures shown here. Quantum
mechanical calculations indicate that the contribution
made by the first structure is relatively unimportant.

The mechanism of the Wittig reaction has been the
subject of considerable study. An early mechanistic
proposal suggested that the ylide, acting as a
carbanion, attacks the carbonyl carbon of the
aldehyde or ketone to form an unstable intermediate
with separated charges called a betaine. In the next
step, the betaine is envisioned as becoming an
unstable four-membered cyclic system called an
oxaphosphetane, which then spontaneously loses
triphenylphosphine oxide to become an alkene.
However, studies by E. Vedejs and others suggest
that the betaine is not an intermediate and that the
oxaphosphetane is formed directly by a cycloaddition
reaction. The driving force for the Wittig reaction is
the formation of the very strong (H = 540 kJ mol
1
)
phosphorus oxygen bond in triphenylphosphine
oxide.

Tetragonal distortion of octahedral complexes (Jahn-
Teller distortion) :
The shape of transition metal complexes are affected
by whether the d orbitals are symmetrically or
asymmetrically filled.
Repulsion by six ligands in an octahedral complex
splits the d orbitals on the central metal into t
2g
and e
g
levels. It follows that there is a corresponding
repulsion between the d electrons and the ligands. If
the d electrons are symmetrically arranged, they will
repel all six ligands equally. Thus the structure will
be a completely regular octahedron. The symmetrical
arrangements of d electrons are shown in Table.
Symmetrical electronic arrangements :

All other arrangements have an asymmetrical
arrangement of d electrons. If the d electrons are
asymmetrically arranged, they will repel some
ligands in the complex more than others. Thus the
structure is distorted because some ligands are
prevented from approaching the metal.
as closely as others. The e
g
orbitals point directly at
the ligands. Thus asymmetric filling of the e
g
orbitals
in some ligands being repelled more than others. This
causes a significant distortion of the octahedral
shape. In contrast the t
2g
orbitals do not point directly
at the ligands, but point in between the ligand
directions. Thus asymmetric filling of the t
2g
orbitals
has only a very small effect on the stereochemistry.
Distortion caused by asymmetric filling of the t
2g

orbitals is usually too small to measure. The
electronic arrangements which will produce a large
distortion are shown in Table.
The two e
g
orbitals
2 2

d

and
2
z
d are normally
degenerate. However, if they are asymmetrically
filled then this degeneracy is destroyed, and the two
orbitals are no longer equal in energy. If the

more electron than the
2 2
y x
d

orbital then the ligands


approaching along +z and z will encounter greater
repulsion than the other four ligands. The repulsion
and distortion result in elongation of the octahedron
along the z axis. This is called tetragonal distortion.
Strictly it should be called tetragonal elongation. This
form of distortion is commonly obsered.
If the 2 2
y x
d

orbital contains the extra electron, then


elongation will occur along the x and y axes. This
means that the ligands approach more closely along
the z-axis. Thus there will be four long bonds and
two short bonds. This is equivalent to compressing
the octahedron along the z axis, and is called
tetragonal compression, and it is not possible to
predict which will occur.
For example, the crystal structure of CrF
2
is a
distorted rutile (TiO
2
) structure. Cr
2+
is octahedrally
surrounded by six F

, and there are four CrF bonds


of length 1.98 2.01 , and two longer bonds of
length 2.43 . The octahedron is said to be
tetragonally distorted. The electronic arrangement in
Cr
2+
is d
4
. F

is a weak field ligand, and so the t


2g

level contains three electrons and the e
g
level contains
one electron. The
2 2
y x
d

orbital has four lobes whilst


the
2
z
d orbital has only two lobes pointing at the
ligands. To minimize repulsion with the ligands, the
single e
g
electron will occupy the
2
z
d orbital. This is
equivalent to splitting the degeneracy of the e
g
level
so that
2
z
d is of lower energy, i.e. more stable, and
2 2
y x
d

is of higher energy, i.e. less stable. Thus the

two ligands approaching along the +z and z
directions are subjected to greater repulsion than the
four ligands along +x, x, +y and y. This causes
tetragonal distortion with four short bonds and two
long bonds. In the same way MnF
3
contains Mn
3+

with a d
4
configuration, and forms a tetragonally
distorted octahedral structure.
Many Cu(+II) salts and complexes also show
tetragonally distorted octahedral structures. Cu

To minimize repulsion with the ligands, two
electrons occupy the
2
z
d orbital and one electron
occupies the
2 2
y x
d

orbital. Thus the two ligands


along z and z are repelled more strongly than are
the other four ligands.
The examples above show that whenever the
2
z
d and
2 2
y x
d

orbitals are unequally occupied, distortion


occurs. This is know as JahnTeller distortion.
Leaching :
It involves the treatment of the ore with a suitable
reagents as to make it soluble while impurities
remain insoluble. The ore is recovered from the
solution by suitable chemical method. For example,
bauxite ore contains ferric oxide, titanium oxide and
silica as impurities. When the powdered ore is
digested with an aqueous solution of sodium
hydroxide at about 150C under pressure, the alumina
(Al

Zone refining or Fractional crystallisation :
Elements such as Si, Ge, Ga, etc., which are used as
semiconductors are refined by this method. Highly
pure metals are obtained. The method is based on the
difference in solubility of impurities in molten and
solid state of the metal. A movable heater is fitted
around a rod of the impure metal. The heater is
slowly moved across the rod. The metal melts at the
point of heating and as the heater moves on from one
end of the rod to the other end, the pure metal
crystallises while the impurities pass on the adjacent
melted zone.

Different metallurgical processes can be broadly
divided into three main types.
Pyrometallurgy : Extraction is done using heat
energy. The metals like Cu, Fe, Zn, Pb, Sn, Ni, Cr,
Hg, etc., which are found in nature in the form of
oxides, carbonates, sulphides are extracted by this
process.
Hydrometallurgy : Extraction of metals involving
aqueous solution is known as hydrometallurgy.
Silver, gold, etc., are extracted by this process.
Electrometallurgy : Extraction of highly reactive
metals such as Na, K, Ca, Mg, Al, etc., by
carrying electrolysis of one of the suitable
compound in fused or molten state.

Replacing Gs in terms of potentials, we get

If it be assumed that the whole of Hg(CN)

converted into complex, the amounts of various
species in 1 kg of solvent after the formation of the
complex will be

Total amount of species in 1 kg solvent becomes

= [0.189 + (0.189 x) + 0.095] mol
= (0.473 x) mol Equating this to 0.285 mol,
we get
(0.473 x) mol = 0.285 mol
i.e. x = (0.473 0.285) = 0.188
Number of CN

WHAT MAKES A STAR?

So you're out one night and you look up into the
sky. Assuming you aren't in a city with tons of
smog or clouds, you will probably see a sky
filled with little dots of light. Those dots (this
should not be a surprise) are stars. Some are only
a few hundred light years away and some are
thousands of light years away. They all have
some things in common. You see, stars are huge
balls of fire. They aren't just any fire. That fire is
from a constant number of nuclear reactions.

as 1 + n + 1 n & 1 + n 1 n are rational
so 1 + n + 1 n must be rational
i.e. (n + 1) & (n 1) are perfect squares.
This is not possible as any two perfect squares differe

which 1 n + 1 + n is a rational.

11. Until the late 1800s, it was forbidden for
women in the United States to obtain a patent,
so if a woman had invented something she
would file for a patent under her husband or

6. A man standing at a distance 5m in front of the base
of a building 10m high on which a flagstaff is
mounted observes that the top of the building and the
top of a mountain behind the building are along the
same straight line. When he recedes by a distance of
48 m he observes that now the top of the flagstaff and
the top of the mountain are along the same straight
line. If at both the locations, the flagstaff subtends the
same angle at the mans eye, find the height of
mountain.
Sol. CD : Flagstaf

Proper choice of the first and second functions :
Integration with the help of the above rule is called
XtraEdge for IIT-JEE 47 FEBRUARY 2011
integration by parts, In the above rule, there are two
terms on R.H.S. and in both the terms integral of the
second function is involve. Therefore in the product
of two functions if one of the two functions is not
directly integrable (e.g. log x, sin
1
x, cos
1
x, tan
1
x
etc.) we take it as the first function and the remaining
function is taken as the second function. If there is no
other function, then unity is taken as the second
function. If in the integral both the functions are
easily integrable, then the first function is chosen in
such a way that the derivative of the function is a
simple functions and the function thus obtained under
the integral sign is easily integrable than the original
function.

Integration of Trigonometric Functions :
1. To evaluate the integrals of the form
I =

sin
m
x cos
n
x dx, where m and n are rational
numbers.
(i) Substitute sin x = t, if n is odd;
(ii) Substitute cos x = t, if m is odd;
(iii) Substitute tan x = t, if m + n is a negative even
integer; and
(iv) Substitute cot x = t, if
2

(m + 1) +
2
1
(n 1) is an
integer.
2. Integrals of the form

R (sin x, cos x) dx, where R is


a rational function of sin x and cos x, are transformed
into integrals of a rational function by the substitution
tan
2
x
= t, where < x < . This is the so called
universal substitution. Sometimes it is more
convenient to make the substitution cot
2
x
= t for
0 < x < 2.
The above substitution enables us to integrate any
function of the form R (sin x, cos x). However, in
practice, it sometimes leads to extremely complex
rational functions. In some cases, the integral can be
simplified by
(i) Substituting sin x = t, if the integral is of the form

R (sin x) cos x dx.


(ii) Substituting cos x = t, if the integral is of the form

R (cos x) sin x dx.


(iii) Substituting tan x = t, i.e. dx =

integral is dependent only on tan x.

Note :
1. If while solving an equation we have to square it,
then the roots found after squaring must be
checked whether they satisfy the original equation
or not. e.g. Let x = 3. Squaring, we get x
2
= 9,
x = 3 and 3 but x = 3 does not satisfy the
original equation x = 3.
2. Any value of x which makes both R.H.S. and
L.H.S. equal will be a root but the value of x for
which = will not be a solution as it is an
indeterminate form.
3. If xy = xz, then x(y z) = 0 either x = 0 or
y = z or both. But
x
y
=
x
z
y = z only and not
x = 0, as it will make = . Similarly, if ay = az,
then it will also imply y = z only as a 0 being a
constant.
Similarly, x + y = x + z y = z and x y = x z
y = z. Here we do not take x = 0 as in the
above because x is an additive factor and not
multiplicative factor.

Solution of Triangles :
1. Introduction : In a triangle, there are six
elements viz. three sides and three angles. In
plane geometry we have done that if three of the
elements are given, at least one of which must be
a side, then the other three elements can be
uniquely determined. The procedure of
determining unknown elements from the known
elements is called solving a triangle.
2. Solution of a right angled triangle :
Case I. When two sides are given : Let the
triangle be right angled at C. Then we can
determine the remaining elements as given in the

At times the methods of co-ordinates becomes
effective in solving problems of properties of
triangles. We may choose one vertex of the triangle
as origin and one side passing through this vertex as

Passage # 1 (Ques. 15 to 17)
According to molecular orbital theory all atomic
orbital combine to form molecular orbital by LCAO
(Linear combination of atomic orbital) method. When
two atomic orbitals have additive (constructive)
overlapping, they form bonding molecular orbital
(BMO) which have lower energy than atomic orbitals
whereas when atomic orbitals overlap subtractively,
higher energy antibonding molecular orbitals (AMO)
are formed. Each M.O. occupies two electrons with
opposite spin. Distribution of electrons in M.O.
follows Aufbau principle as well as Hund's rule.
M.O. theory can successfully explain magnetic
behaviour of molecules.

10. The principle oxidation state of lanthanides is +3.
However, some lanthanides also show oxidation
state of +2 and +4.
For example, Eu shows oxidation state of +2 and
Cerium shows oxidation state of + 4 .

11. Bayer's process is used when bauxite ore contains
ferric oxide as chief impurity.
The powdered ore is first roasted at low
temperature to convert ferrous oxide into ferric
oxide. It is then digested with a concentrated
solution of sodium hydroxide.
The aluminium oxide dissolves in caustic soda
(NaOH) forming soluble sodium metal aluminate
(NaAlO
2
) while ferric oxide and silica remains
insoluble and settle down. These are removed by
filtration.

13. The minimum additional energy which is required
by the reactant molecule to participate in the
chemical rx

Dialysis is a phenomenon in which removal of
dissolved impurities from the colloidal solution by
means of diffussion through a suitable
semipermeable membrane.
In this process colloidal solution is placed in
cellophane bag and impurities get removed through
small pores of the bag. To enhance the removel of
electrolyte it is placed in electric field which is
called electro dialysis.

27. The given data may be put in the following tabular
form:
Refinery High grade Medium grade Low grade Cost per day
A 100 300 200 Rs.400
B 200 400 100 Rs.300
Minimum
requirement
12,000 20,000 15,000

Suppose refineries A and B should run for x and y
days respectively to minimize the total cost.
The mathematical form of the above LPP is
Minimize Z = 400x + 300y
Subject to
100x + 200y 12,000
300x + 400y 20,000
200x + 100y 15,000
and, x, y 0
The feasible region of the above LPP is represented by
the shaded region in fig.
The corner points of the feasible region are
A
2
(120, 0), P(60, 30) and B
3
(0, 150). The value of the
objective function at these points are given in the
following table:

Points (x, y) Value of the objective function
Z = 400x + 300y

A
2
(120, 0) Z = 400 120 + 300 0 = 48,000
P (60, 30) Z = 400 60 + 300 30 = 33, 000
B
3
(0, 150) Z = 400 0 + 300 150 = 45,000
Clearly, Z is minimum when x = 60, y = 30. Hence the
machine A should run for 60 days and the machine B
should run for 30 days to minimize the cost while
satisfying the constraints.

ADAPTIVE TESTING
(An initiative by a2zExam.com)

What is Adaptive Testing?
Adaptive testing in the tertiary environment also has a long history as it has existed since the time of the oral examination,
and responding adaptively to students. This was totally lost in the paper based fixed test for everyone, because it was not
feasible to conduct oral test of each and every student in such a short time period. But due to the development in
technology, it is again possible to have adaptive testing for everyone. Computer Based Adaptive Testing is the way going
forward, as it gives the benefits of Adaptive Testing and also do not require too much resource.

Adaptive Testing Process:
Computer Based-adaptive test (CAT) is a form of assessment where the level of the questions administered to
individual test-takers is dynamically tailored to their skill and knowledge levels.
First set of Papers are fixed for each part of syllabus, student take this test and system judges the level of the
student based on their performance in this papers
Next papers onward system creates the paper especially for the student based on the students performance in
previous papers.
Thus, each paper adapted the students level and thus is known as adaptive testing



It is important to differentiate between online assessment tools, those readily delivered through learning management
systems, although having the advantages of collation and immediate results are fixed rather than dynamic, as they are not
adaptive.

Performance Analysis by Feedback Report:

Analyze the bigger picture then go deep to find exact cause

Overall Papers Danger Zone Analysis: Danger zone analysis tells where the student lies out of three zone
viz. Danger, Normal and Safe Zone represented by a white circle. Overall Papers Danger Zone analysis
tells where the student lies in the distribution graph as per total marks obtained.



Student or circle lies in Red area means student is in Danger Zone and needs to work very hard to
achieve the goal of selection
Student or circle lies in Blue area means student is in Normal Zone and should regularize and do
systematic study to achieve the goal
Student or circle lies in Green area means student is in Safe Zone but needs to keep improving to
achieve the goal

Subject Wise Comparative Analysis: This analysis compares students subject wise marks with highest and
average marks in the subject. It also tells percentage of question attempted by student correctly, incorrectly
& percentage of question student did not attempted.



Graph represents Students, Highest & Average Marks in each subject
Graph implies that student is doing much better in Physics than Maths & Chemistry
Table shows the Attempt Status & Marks of each subject in the test paper.
Table shows that in Chemistry, student has attempted very few questions, which implies either he
was short of time or he doesnt knew how to answer
XtraEdge for IIT-JEE 93 FEBRUARY 2011
Similarly, for Maths student has very high (%) of Incorrect Question, which implies either student,
has misconception or has made lot of silly mistakes.
Help you know your learning gaps & how to improve or fill them
Skill-Wise Personal Analysis: Personal analysis is done to find out the skill wise performance. Whether student is
able to Direct Theory or Formula based Questions, whether he has good concepts or problem solving skills, etc.
Inferences and Suggestions for Improvements: Based on the observation made above we deduct inferences and
suggest methods for improvement

Observation Inference Suggestion For Improvement
You have got only 50 % of
Easy and Direct Questions
Correct.
You are expected to grab
all the Easy and Direct
problems
Your real problem lies in your unsystematic self study, Revise
lectures on day to day basis and plan mega revision (1hrs) of
theory on weekends.


Help you focus on specific weak areas
Topic Wise Danger Zone Analysis: For each topic the analysis is done and suggestion based on students zone is
given in next column. Student should figure out the weak topics and should work according to the suggestion.


The circle o in the graph represents students position
Question wise Detailed Analysis: Each question is analyzed based on the students attempt status and compared
with overall attempt status.


Question wise analysis table shows Knowledge Area & Skills which the question belongs, along with
Students attempt status
(%) of student attempted the question
(%) of students among attempted which does it correctly
Each paper has some tricky questions, which most people attempt, but does it wrong. Understanding how to solve
those questions, improve students concept & learning on those topic. But the important thing is how to figure out
those questions.
Each paper has hard questions, which most people has left and if you have attempted you might have taken a lot of
time; this type of question should be tried in the end.
XtraEdge for IIT-JEE 94 FEBRUARY 2011
The above table helps you in recognizing those questions and if you keep this in mind you will be able to save time
and marks by not attempting questions which are meant to be left.
Benefits of Adaptive Testing

Adaptive test encourages student to bring out their maximum output by providing them the questions with levels
close to their skills and knowledge level, instead of very easy or hard which most of the time de-motivates student
from attempting.

Adaptive testing helps evaluator to measure the accurate skill level of students, even with small number of
questions.

Better Analysis of Students Performance can be judged and provided to students using adaptive testing

Adaptive Testing targets the student weak areas and motivates them to improve on those areas by going to their
level and upgrading as students improve.

This also brings students focus on those areas where they need improvement

The experience of taking an adaptive test is like participating in a high-jump event. The high-jumper, regardless of
ability, quickly reaches a challenging level where there is about an equal chance of clearing the bar or knocking it
down. The score is the last height that was successfully cleared and is earned without having to jump all possible
lower heights or trying the higher levels.

Research shows that adaptive testing has improved the students learning by more than 22% compare to student taking
fixed test during their preparation.

the system to adapt to your level for testing, so that you can work on your weak areas before taking the next test.
Adaptive testing is like High Jump but if every jump of high jumper (participant) is recorded and shown before the next
jump pointing out the mistakes or good things done by them. Think how much beneficial it will be for them and the
improvement in their records.
Similarly, after every test you will be provided here with the feedback report pointing your strength and weakness along
with the suggestions for improvement, so that you can work on those areas before taking the next test and improve your

21. A telescope views large objects at large distances; a
microscope views small objects at small distances.
Both need a small field of view. A camera views
objects of ordinary sizes at fairly close distances.
Here the field of view is required much more
(compare 45 for a camera with about 1 for a
microscope objective and something similar for a
telescope, a moon subtends about 0.5 at the earth)
Thus rays entering a camera lens are far from being
paraxial and aberrations will be large and images
will be blurred if the apertures are not very small.
For a telescope, on the other hand, the important
thing is its ability to resolve distant abjects (i.e., see
them as distinct). We have seen that the resolving
power increases with increase in aperture.
Therefore, telescopes have as large an aperture as
feasible.

respectively. As the reverse bias current a feeble
current measurable in micro amperes so a micro-
ammeter is used to measure it. To plot reverse bias
characteristic, we note down reverse currents
corresponding to various different reverse voltages
on the diode with help of the potential divider.
After obtaining it, the applied voltages are plotted

Then, the coordinates of A, B and C are A (a, 0, 0),
B(0, b, 0), and C(0, 0, c) respectively. So the centroid
of triangle ABC is (a/3, b/3, c/3). But the coordinates

y units (5y) units

= x + y 4 units

Let the factory at P transports x units of commodity to
depot at A and y units to depot at B. Since the factory
at P has the capacity of 8 units of the commodity.
Therefore, the left out (8 x y) units will be
transported to depot at C.
Since the requirements are always non-negative
quantities.
Therefore,
x 0, y 0 and 8 x y 0
x 0, y 0 and x + y 8.
Since the weekly requirement of the depot at A is 5
units of the commodity and x units are transported
from the factory at P. Therefore the remaining (5 x)
units are to be transported from the factory at Q.
Similarly, 5 y units of the commodity will be
transported from the factory at Q to the depot at B.
But the factory at Q has the capacity of 6 units only,
therefore the remaining 6 (5 x + 5 y) = x + y 4
units will be transported to the depot at C. As the
requirements at the depots at A, B and C are always
non-negative.
5 x 0, 5 y 0 and x + y 4 0
x 5, y 5 and x + y 4
The transportation cost from the factory at P to the
depots at A, B and C are respectively Rs.16x, 10y and
15(8 x y). Similarly, the transportation cost from
the factory at Q to the depots at A, B and C are
respectively Rs.10 (5 x), 12(5 y) and 10(x + y 4).
Therefore, the total transportation cost Z is given by
Z = 16x + 10y + 15(8 x y) + 10 (5 x) + 12 (5 y)
+ 10 (x + y 4) = x 7y + 190
Z = 16x + 10y + 15(8 x y) + 10(5 x) + 12(5 y)
+ 10(x + y 4) = x 7y + 190)
Hence, the above LPP can be stated mathematically
as follows, find x & y which Minimize
Z = x 7y + 190
x + y 8
x + y 4
x 5
y 5
and x 0, y 0

Let the depot A transport x thousand bricks to builder

Subject to x + y 30
x 15

x + y 15
and, x 0, y 0

(0, 15) Z = 30 0 30 15 + 1800 = 1350

Clearly, Z is minimum at x = 0, y = 20 and the
minimum value of Z is 1200. Thus, the manufacturer
should supply 0, 20 and 10 thousand bricks to
builders P, Q and R from depot A and 15, 0, and 5
thousand bricks to builders P, Q and R from depot B
respectively. In this case the minimum transportation
cost will be Rs.1200.
