- Paragraph :
A spray gun is shown in the figure where a piston pushes air out of a nozzle. A thin tube of uniform cross section is connected to the nozzle. The other end of the tube is in a small liquid container. As the piston pushes air through the nozzle, the liquid from the container rises into the nozzle and is sprayed out. For the spray gun shown, the radii of the piston and the nozzle are \(20 \mathrm{~mm}\) and \(1 \mathrm{~mm}\), respectively. The upper end of the container is open to the atmosphere.

- A solid glass sphere of refractive index \(n=\sqrt{3}\) and radius \(R\) contains a spherical air cavity of radius \(\frac{\mathrm{R}}{2}\), as shown in the figure. A very thin glass layer is present at the point O so that the air cavity (refractive index \(n=1\)) remains inside the glass sphere. An unpolarized, unidirectional and monochromatic light source \(S\) emits a light ray from a point inside the glass sphere towards the periphery of the glass sphere. If the light is reflected from the point O and is fully polarized, then the angle of incidence at the inner surface of the glass sphere is \(\theta\). The value of \(\sin \theta\) is ______ [given : θ > 30°]

JEE Advanced 2011 Medium - Paragraph I: An organic compound \(\mathbf{P}\) with molecular formula \(\mathrm{C}_9 \mathrm{H}_{18} \mathrm{O}_2\) decolorizes bromine water and also shows positive iodoform test. \(\mathbf{P}\) on ozonolysis followed by treatment with \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2\) gives \(\mathbf{Q}\) and \(\mathbf{R}\). While compound \(\mathbf{Q}\) shows positive iodoform test, compound \(\mathbf{R}\) does not give positive iodoform test. \(\mathbf{Q}\) and \(\mathbf{R}\) on oxidation with pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) followed by heating give \(\mathbf{S}\) and \(\mathbf{T}\), respectively. Both \(\mathbf{S}\) and \(\mathbf{T}\) show positive iodoform test.

Assuming the collision to be perfectly elastic, the maximum angular deviation \(\theta\) of the heavier particle, as shown in the figure, in radians 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 \(e=1.6 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{C}\) ]
