• This section contains THREE (03) questions.
• Each question has FOUR options (A), (B), (C) and (D). ONE OR MORE THAN ONE of these four
option(s) is(are) correct answer(s).
• For each question, choose the option(s) corresponding to (all) the correct answer(s).
• Answer to each question will be evaluated according to the following marking scheme:
Full Marks : + 𝟒 ONLY if (all) the correct option(s) is(are) chosen;
Partial Marks : + 𝟑 If all the four options are correct but ONLY three options are chosen;
Partial Marks : + 𝟐 If three or more options are correct but ONLY two options are chosen,
both of which are correct;
Partial Marks : + 𝟏 If two or more options are correct but ONLY one option is chosen and it
is a correct option;
Zero Marks : 0 If none of the options is chosen (i.e. the question is unanswered);

(A) f(x) is continuous at x = 0
(B) f(x) is differentiable at x = 0
(C) f(x) is continuous but not differentiable at x = 0
(D) f(0) = 0
Ans. (ABD)
Sol. Given |f(x)| ≤ sin2 x
⇒ Clearly |f(0)| ≤ 0 ⇒ f(0) = 0

2. If f(x) = , then which of the following can be correct?
x2 +x−2

(A) limx→1  f(x) exists ⇒ a = −2

(B) limx→−2  f(x) exists ⇒ a = 13
(C) limx→1  f(x) = 4/3 if it exists
(D) limx→−2  f(x) = −1/3 if it exists.
Ans. (A,B,C,D)
3x2 +ax+a+1
Sol. f(x) = (x+2)(x−1)

As x → 1, Dr → 0.
Hence as x → 1, Nr → 0.
Therefore, 3 + 2a + 1 = 0 or a = −2
As x → −2, Dr → 0.
Hence as x → −2, Nr → 0.
Therefore, 12 − 2a + a + 1 = 0 or a = 13
Now,

limx→1  f(x) = limx→1   = limx→1   =
(x + 2)(x − 1) (x + 2)(x − 1) 3
Now,
3x 2 + 13x + 14 (3x + 7)(x + 2) 1

3. Which of the following functions has/have a removable discontinuity at the indicated point?
x2 −2x−8
(A) f(x) = at x = −2
x+2
x−7
(B) f(x) = |x−7| at x = 7
x3 +64
(C) f(x) = at x = −4
x+4
3−√x
(D) f(x) = at x = 9.
9−x

Ans. (A,C,D)
x2 −2x−8 (x+2)(x−4)
Sol. f(x) = = = x − 4, x ≠ −2
x+2 x+2

Hence, f(x) has removable discontinuity at x = −2.

Similarly, f(x) in options (3) and (4) has also removable discontinuity.
x−7 −1, x < 7
f(x) = ={
|x − 7| 1, x > 7
Hence, f(x) has non-removable discontinuity at x = 7.

SECTION - 4 (Maximum Marks : 12)

• This section contains FOUR (04) Matching List Sets.
• Each set has ONE Multiple Choice Question.
• Each set has TWO lists: List-I and List-II.
• List-I has Four entries (A), (B), (C) and (D) and List-II has Five entries (P), (Q), (R), (S) and (T).
• FOUR options are given in each Multiple Choice Question based on List-I and List-II and ONLY
ONE of these four options satisfies the condition asked in the Multiple Choice Question.
Answer to each question will be evaluated according to the following marking scheme:
Full Marks : +3 ONLY if the option corresponding to the correct combination is
chosen;
Zero Marks : 0 If none of the options is chosen (i.e. the question is unanswered);
Negative Marks : −𝟏 In all other cases.

14. Match the following lists :

Where {.} denotes the fractional part function and [.] denotes greatest integer function.

List I: Function List II: Period

4 πx+x−[x]+cos2 πx
(A) f(x) = ecos (P) 1/3

(B) f(x) = cos2π{2x} + sin2π{2x} (Q) 1/4

(C) f(x) = sin3π{x} + tanπ[x] (R) 1/2

(D) f(x) = 3x − [3x + a] − b, where a, b ∈ R+ (S) 1

(A) A→ P ; B → S ; C → Q ; D → P (B) A→ S ; B → Q ; C → R ; D → Q
(C) A→ S ; B → R ; C → S ; D → P (D) A→ P ; B → R ; C → S ; D →Q
Ans. (C)
4 πx+x−[x]+cos2 πx
Sol. (A) f(x) = ecos
cos2 πx and cos 4 πx have period 1
x − [x] = {x} has period 1, Then the period of f(x) is 1.
(B) f(x) = cos2π{2x} + sin2π{2x} The period of {2x} is 1/2. Then the period of f(x) is 1/2.
(C) Clearly, tanπ[x] = 0 ∀ x ∈ R and the period of sin3π{x} is equal to 1.
(D) f(x) = 3x − [3x + a] − b = 3x + a − [3x + a] − (a + b) = {3x + a} − (a + b)
Thus, the period of f(x) is 1/3.

Ans. (B)

Sol. (A) y = tanx = x2

From the graph, it is clear that it will have two real roots.

(B) See the graphs of y = 2cosx and y = |sinx|. Two curves meet at four points for x ∈ [0,2π].

So, the equation 2cosx = |sinx| has four solutions.

(C) Given that f(|x|) = 0 has 8 real roots or f(x) = 0 has four positive roots.
Since f(x) is a polynomial of degree 5, f(x) cannot have even number of real roots.
Hence, f(x) has all the five roots real and one root is negative.

(D) 7|x| (|5 − |x||) = 1 or |5 − |x|| = 7−|x|

Draw the graph of y = 7−|x| and y = |5 − |x||.
From the graph, the number of roots is 4.

Hence, F(x) is differentiable at x = 0. Then it is always continuous at x = 0

Sol: Correct options are A,B,C and D
Rate of absorption of energy is power of the battery
P = IV
P = EI
The potential difference across the cell
ΔV = E − Ir
So, power = I(E = Ir) = EI − I2 r
VA + Ir + E = VB
VB − VA = E + Ir
As there is resistance in the cell, so it must generate heat as, H = I2 R

21. A cylindrical conductor has uniform cross-section. Resistivity of its material increases linearly
from left end to right end. If a constant current is flowing through it and at a section of distance
x from left end, then magnitude of electric field intensity is E. Which of the following graphs is
correct?

(A) (B)

(C) (D)

APNI KAKSHA 13
 JEE ADVANCED PAPER – 1
CLASS 12th APNI KAKSHA SAFALTA BATCH
Ans: (B)
Sol: If we take resistivity at a distance x from left end as ρ = (ρ0 + αx), then electric field intensity
iρ
at this point will be E = A , where i is the current flowing through the conductor.
i
Therefore, E ∝ ρ and E(x) = A (ρ0 + αx)

∴ Hence, (B) is correct.

22. A source of constant potential difference is connected across a conductor having irregular
cross-section as shown. Then :

(A) electric field intensity at P is greater than that at Q

(B) rate of electrons crossing per unit area of cross-section at P is less than that at Q
(C) the rate of generation of heat per unit length at P is greater than at Q
(D) mean kinetic energy of free electrons at P is greater than that at Q
Ans: (B)
Sol: When a source is connected, a current starts to flow through the conductor. Let it be I. Then,
current density at a section is equal to I/A, where A = cross-sectional area. Since cross-sectional
area at P is maximum, therefore current density at P is minimum. Hence (B) is correct. Since
J′ ℓ ℓρ
electric field is (= Aσ = ), therefore at P electric field is minimum while that at Q is
σ A

ℓ2 ρ
maximum. Rate of generation of heat per unit length at a section will be equal to . It is
A
1
minimum at P and maximum at Q. The mean kinetic energy of free electrons = 2 mvd2

Which is minimum at P and maximum at Q.

∴ Hence (B) is correct.

Ans. (D)
Sol. (P) C ⇒ σ1 s2 < σ∗ 1 s 2 < σ2 s 2 < π ∗ 2p2x ≈ π2p2y B.O. = 2, ( B.O. )σ = 0, ( B.O. )π = 2
(Q) B2 ⇒ σ1 s 2 < σ∗ 1 s 2 < σ2 s 2 < σ∗ 2p2 < π2p1x ≈ π2py 1
B.O. = 1, ( B.O. )σ = 0, ( B.O. )π = 1
(R) O2 ⇒ σ1 s 2 < σ ∗ 1 s 2 < σ2 s 2 < σ ∗ 2 s2 <
σ∗ 2pz 2 < π2px 2 ≈ π2py 2 < π ∗ 2px 1 ≈ π ∗ 2py 1
B.O. = 2, ( B.O. )σ = 1, ( B.O. )π = 1

If in molecule electron is removed from B.M.O. than ionisation energy of molecule is more than
atom. If in molecule electron is removed ABMO from than ionisation energy of molecule is more
than atom.
