A soft plastic bottle, filled with water of density \(1 \mathrm{gm} / \mathrm{cc}\), carries an inverted glass test-tube with some air (ideal gas) trapped as shown in the figure. The test-tube has a mass of \(5 \mathrm{gm}\), and it is made of a thick glass of density \(2.5 \mathrm{gm} / \mathrm{cc}\). Initially the bottle is sealed at atmospheric pressure \(p_{0}=10^{5} \mathrm{~Pa}\) so that the volume of the trapped air is \(v_{0}=3.3 \mathrm{cc}\). When the bottle is squeezed from outside at constant temperature, the pressure inside rises and the volume of the trapped air reduces. It is found that the test tube begins to sink at pressure \(p_{0}+\Delta p\) without changing its orientation. At this pressure, the volume of the trapped air is \(v_{0}-\Delta v\).
Let \(\Delta v=X\) cc and \(\Delta p=Y \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~Pa}\).

- A cube of unit volume contains \(35 \times 10^7\) photons of frequency \(10^{15} \mathrm{~Hz}\). If the energy of all the photons is viewed as the average energy being contained in the electromagnetic waves within the same volume, then the amplitude of the magnetic field is \(\alpha \times 10^{-9} \mathrm{~T}\). Taking permeability of free space \(\mu_0=4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{Tm} / \mathrm{A}\), Planck's constant \(h=6 \times 10^{-34} \mathrm{Js}\) and \(\pi=\frac{22}{7}\), the value of \(\alpha\) is_______JEE Advanced 2025 Hard
- Paragraph:
When a particle is restricted to move along \(x\)-axis between \(x=0\) and \(x=a\), where \(a\) is of nanometer dimension, its energy can take only certain specific values. The allowed energies of the particle moving in such a restricted region, correspond to the formation of standing waves with nodes at its ends \(x=0\) and \(x=a\). The wavelength of this standing wave is related to the liner momentum \(p\) of the particle according to the de Broglie relation. The energy of the particle of mass \(m\) is related to its linear momentum as \(E=\frac{p^2}{2 m}\). Thus, the energy of the particle can be denoted by a quantum number \(n\) taking values \(1,2,3, \ldots(n=1\), called the ground state) corresponding to the number of loops in the standing wave.
Use the model described above to answer the following three questions for a particle moving in the line \(x=0\) to \(x=a\) [Take \(h=6.6 \times 10^{-34} \mathrm{Js}\) and \(e=1.6 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{C}\) ]
