Learning for IIT JEE 2011

JEE aspirants - Youth Day of India 2010

2010-01-10T01:27:00.000-08:00

12 January 2010 is national youth day of India.

It is Swami Vivekananda's Birth day.

Let us do something to improve some tangible things in the society and do something to improve intangible things - our behaviour and behavior of our community members.

Some details of the days celebrations are being collected in an article

Let me know any details of any celebration in your locality or institute

IIT JEE 2011 Chemistry Revision Plan January - April - 2010

2009-12-29T03:10:00.000-08:00

By December 31 you will complete basic study of all chapters. From now you have to prepare for annual examinations of 11th class. You need to revise the material you studied for JEE. You need to do them both simultaneously and each type of preparation has to complement the other. There is no conflict between the two. Each preparation will support the other.

I prepared some revision points for various chapters.

IIT JEE 2011 Physics Study Diary - Ch.3 Rest and Motion - Day 5

2009-05-22T22:13:00.000-07:00

Rest and Motion
Day 5 May 25 2009 study plan

3.9 Change of frame
Ex. 3.10, 3.11
WOE 16,17, 18

Points to Note

The main theme of the section is expressing velocity w.r.t. one Frame into velocity w.r.t. to a different frame

If XOY is one frame called S and X'O'Y' is another frame called S' we can express velocity of a body B w.r.t. S as a combination of velocity of body w.r.t. to S' and velocity of S' w.r.t to S.

V(B,S) = V(B,S')+V(S',S)

Where
V(B,S) = velocity of body w.r.t to S
V(B,S') = velocity of body w.r.t to S'
V(S',S) = velocity of S' w.r.t to S

we can rewrite above equation as

V(B,S') = V(B,S)- V(S',S)

We can interpret the above equation in terms of two bodies. Assume S', and B are two bodies. If we know velocities of two bodies with respect to a common frame (in this case S)we can find the velocity of one body with respect to the other body (V(B,S')

The above expressions for velocity were derived from the relation between position vectors of the body w.r.t. to S and S' and position vector of origin of S' with respect to origin of S.

r(B,S) = r(B,S')+r(S',S)

Differentiating the position vectors with respect to gives respective velocity

Formulas covered in the session

26. r(B,S) = r(B,S')+r(S',S)

Where

r(B,S) = Position vector
r(B,S') = Position vector
r(S',S) = Position vector

27. V(B,S) = V(B,S')+V(S',S)

Where
V(B,S) = velocity of body wrt to S)
V(B,S') = velocity of body wrt to S')
V(S',S) = velocity of S' wrt to S)

we can rewrite above equation as

28. V(B,S') = V(B,S)- V(S',S)

An Intersting Quote from Mark Twain

2009-05-22T02:41:00.001-07:00

Yesterday I saw an interesting quote from Mark Twain

I do not allow my schooling to interfere with my education.

This may apply to JEE coaching. If you feel, you are not getting adequate inputs, you have to put in your efforts. Finally, you want a seat in the best institute not they.

So do not allow your coaching institute to spoil your education. Depend on them to a large extent, but listen to your judgement regarding your time table.

IIT JEE Physics Study Diary - Rest and Motion - Day 4

2009-05-22T01:31:00.000-07:00

Day 4 - Study Plan

3.7 Motion in a plane
Ex. 3.8
3.8 Projectile motion
Ex. 3.9
WOE 11,12, 14

Points to Note

Motion in a plane

Motion in plane is described by x coordinate and y coordinate, if we choose X-Y plane. You can imagine time t is on the third axis.

The position of the particle or the body can be described by x and y coordinates.

r = xi = yj

Displacement during time period t to t+Δt can be represented by Δr

Δr = Δxi = Δyj

Then Δr/Δt = (Δx/Δt)i = (Δy/Δt)j

Taking the limits as Δt tends to zero

v = dr/dt = (dx/dt)i+(dy/dt)j ... (3.15)

Hence x component of velocity is dx/dt

The x-coordinate, the x component of velocity, and the x component of acceleration are related by equations of straight line motion along X axis.
Similarly y components.

Projectile

Projectile motion is an important example of motion in a plane.

What is a projectile? When a particle is thrown obliquely near the earth's surface, it is called a projectile. It moves along a curved path. If we assume the particle is close to the earth and negligible air resistance to the motion of the particle, the acceleration of the particle will be constant. We solve projectile problems with the assumption that acceleration is constant.

Vertical motion of the projectile is the motion along Y axis and horizontal motion is motion along X axis.

Terms used in describing projectile motion

Point of projection
Angle of projection
Horizontal range
Time of flight
Maximum height reached

The motion of projectile can be discussed separately for the horizontal and vertical parts.

The origin is taken as the point of projection.
The instant the particle is projected is taken as t = 0.
X-Y plane is the plane of motion.
The horizontal line OX is taken as the X axis.
Vertical line OY is the Y axis.
Vertically upward direction is taken as positive direction of Y

Initial velocity of the particle = u
Angle between the velocity and horizontal axis = θ

ux – x-component of velocity = u cos θ
ax – x component of acceleration = 0

uy – y component of velocity = u sin θ
ay = y component of acceleration = -g

Horizontal motion of the projectile – Equations of motion

ux = u cos θ
ax = 0
vx = ux +axt = ux = u cos θ (as ax = 0)
Hence x component of the velocity remains constant.
Displacement in horizontal direction = x = uxt+1/2ax t²
As ax = 0, x = ux t = ut cos θ

Vertical motion – Equations of motion
uy = u sin θ
ay = -g
vy = uy – gt
Displacement in y direction = y = uyt – ½ gt²
vy² = uy² - 2gy

22. Time of flight of the projectile = (2u sin θ)/g

23. OB = (u²sin 2θ)/g

24. t = (u sin θ)/g
At t vertical component of velocity is zero.

25. Maximum height reached by the projectile = (u² sin²θ)/2g

IIT JEE 2011 Physics Study Diary - Ch.3.Rest and Motion - Session 3

2009-05-20T21:26:00.000-07:00

Day 3 Study Plan - To be studied on 23rd May 2009

3.6 Motion in a straight line
Ex. 3.5.3.6, 3.7
WOE 3,4,5,6,

Points to Note

Motion in a straight line

As the motion is constrained to move on a straight line, choose the straight line in which motion is taking place as X-axis. Hence x represent the position of the particle at any time instant t. If you want you can imagine a graph between t and x but now t in on the vertical axis and x is on the horizontal axis.

Generally origin is taken at the point where the particle is situated at time t = 0.

Position of the particle at time t is given by x and also x measures displacement (not distance).
Velocity is v = dx/dt (3.9)
acceleration is a = dv/dt (3.10)
a = d²x/dt² (3.12)

Decelaration

If acceleration is negative, then it is along the negative X-axis. It is called deceleration

Motion with constant acceleration

Using integration the formulas for v velocity at any instant, x position at any instant and relation between v,u,x and a are derived in this section.

If acceleration is constant dv/dt = a (constant)
initial velocity = u (at time t =0)
final velocity = v (at time t)
Then v = u+at (3.12)

x = distance moved in time t = ut+½at² (3.13)

Also v² = u²+2ax (3.14)

u,v, and a as well as may take negative or positive values. When u, v and a are negative it shows velocity or acceleration is in the negative X direction.

Example 3.5
a) The question asked is distance travelled. The expression for x gives only displacement. But the remark is that as the particle does not turn back it is equal to distance travelled. Be careful when initial velocity is positive and the acceleration is negative.

Example 3.6
There was a past JEE question which is based on the variable defined in the example.

Freely falling bodies

In this case take the Y axis as the straight line on which the particle or body is moving.

You can take height above the ground as +y and work out the problems.

You can take the starting position of the body as the origin and work out the problem.
The choice may be yours or some choice may be more appropriate in case of some problems, be clear of the formula that you have to use depending on the choice you made.

g is approximately equal to 9.8 m/s², but for convenience in many problems it is given as 10m/s².

IIT JEE 2011 Physics Study Diary - Ch.3 Rest and Motion - Day 2

2009-05-19T17:37:00.000-07:00

Plan for Day 2

4. Average velocity and instantaneous velocity
Ex. 3.4
Worked out example 2
3.5 Average accleration and instantaneous aceleration
WOE 3 to 4

Exercises: 1 to 5

Points to Note

Average velocity

Average speed and average velocity of a body over a specified time interval may not turnout to be same.

Example See the worked out example 2 of HC Verma's book.
The teacher made 10 rounds back and forth in the room and the total distance moved is 800 feet (10 rounds back and forth of 40 ft room). As the time taken is 50 minutes, average speed is 800/50 = 16ft/min.
But because he went out of the same door that he has entered, displacement is zero and hence average velocity is zero.

Instantaneous velocity

Average acceleration

Instantaneous acceleration

Position Vector: If we join the origin to the position of a particle by a straight line and put an arrow towards the position of the particle, we get the position vector of the particle.

If the particle moves from position A to position B, we can define position vector of A and position vector of B and OB - OA will give displacement ( a vector quantity).

Another point to note: slope of velocity-time diagram gives the instant acceleration at that point.

IIT JEE 2011 Physics Study Diary - Ch.3 Rest and Motion

2009-05-18T15:56:00.000-07:00

I am planning to study the Physics chapters as per the study plan that I have given. Only thing I shall do to the extent possible in advance. This study would be of help to me in preparing JEE Level Revision problem set for each chapter.

Today (19.5.2009) I did the following portion

Day 1

3.1 Rest and Motion
3.2 Distance and displacement
Ex. 3.1
3.3 average speed and instantaneous speed
Ex. 3.2,3.3
Worked out examples 1,2

Points to note.

3.1 Rest and Motion

Motion is a combined property of the object under study and the observer. There is no meaning of rest or motion without the viewer.

To identify the rest or motion, we need to locate the position of a particle with respect to a frame of reference. The frame of reference will have three mutually perpendicular axes (X-Y-Z) and the particle can be represented by coordinates x,y,z.
If all coordinates remain unchanged as time passes, we say that particle is at rest. If there is change in any of the coordinates with time, we say the particle or the body represented by the particle is having motion.

I some problems or situations frame of reference is specifically mentioned. Otherwise the frame of reference is understood more easily from the context.

Figure 1: A man with a pistol threatening and asking people not to move.

3.2 Distance and Displacement

If a particle moves from position A to Position B in time t, displacement is the length of the straight line joining A to B. The direction of a vector representing this displacement is from A to B. Displacement is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude and direction.

In the movement between positions A and B the particle may take the path ACB. The length of the path ACB will be distance travelled by the particle. It is only scalar quantity. It has not direction.

3.3 Average speed and Instantaneous speed

The average speed of a particle in a specific time interval is defined as the distance travelled by the particle divided by the time interval.

We can plot the distance s as a function of time. In this graph, the instantaneous speed at time t equals the slope of the tangent at the time t. The average speed in a time interval t to t+Δt become equal to the slope of the chord Δs/Δt. As Δt becomes approaches zero, this average speed becomes instantaneous speed and ds/dt becomes the instantaneous speed.

If we plot a speed versus time graph ( v versus t), the distance travelled in time t (t1 to t2) will be equal to the area bounded by the curve v = f(t), x axis, and the two ordinates t = t1 and t = t2.

In terms of integration it can be represented as s = ∫vdt from t1 to t2

IIT JEE Physics JEE Level Revision Questions

2009-05-01T18:52:00.000-07:00

As you are studying according to the plan, ask any doubts immediately. As many others may be studying the same chapter, clarifications may come from others very quickly.

IIT JEE 2011 Today is 1st May

2009-04-30T19:21:00.000-07:00

Start your XI class portion study

IIT JEE 2011 Study Plan Begins from Tomorrow

2009-04-29T21:02:00.000-07:00

Some might have already started the XI class portion.

As per my study plan, candidates can start XI portion from tomorrow, 1st May. Use even today to revise X class portion. The more you remember concepts and formulas from your X portion the more easy it will be to understand and remember XI portion.

You may not have joined any junior colleage at yet. But that should not stop you from your self study. You have to develop the habit of self study. If you do not understand from self study use orkut communities for discussion. There are many more like you and they will help you to overcome the initial conceptual issue clarifications.

IIT JEE Academy is one such orkut community with 325 members as on now. The membership is increasing day by day and participation also will increase. The annual plan and monthly plan for study are already given in this blog. Have a look at them, understand the effort involved and customize the plan according to your needs and preferences.

Be determined from the day one. First decide to acquire the knowledge.

Improving Memory for IIT JEE

2009-04-27T03:19:00.000-07:00

There was an article in a Telugu Daily Eenadu today on page 13 on improving memory.

It talks of three stages

Registration
Retention
Recollection

It emphasizes association.

Associate new information with some old information.

I am emphasizing revision of X class materials till 30th April. Then from May 1 when you read XI material you can associate with known things in X class material. You will have better memory then. Don't create a situation where you learning anything without a continuity. Create a continuity by remembering old chapters. That will make learning new chapters more easy.

I shall write some more pointed covered in this article

2009-04-14T01:12:00.000-07:00

Study plan: Every day four and half hours are to be spent to do the first reading, answering questions and problem solving.

For each chapter first ten day period is detailed reading and one hour is to be spent. For the next ten days, the period is treated as revision period for the chapter and half an hour is spent. Thus one and half hours are to be spent for each subject and three subjects require four and half hours of study.

Every student has to customize this plan harmonize with the chapter being covered in his regular class or coaching class. You insert the chapter that is being covered in your class in the place of chapter plannined here and shift one chapter forwards. You will save time and learn better that way. Harmonize your reading with the chapter being covered in your class. But you have to take responsibility for self study, and for covering and completing the portion by December 2010.

IIT JEE 2011 - April 2009 Plan

2009-03-12T00:22:00.000-07:00

If you are planning to appear for JEE 2011, spend April 2009 in having some relaxation from your X class examination effort and in revising your X portion. If you revise your X portion once again and start learning XI portion from 1 May 2009, you will be able to grasp the subject much faster due to the continuity that you are maintaining by revising your X portion especially of chemistry, Mathematics and Physics. Plan to spend aroud 5 to 6 hours on revising your X material. Plan to complete a quick review of every chapter in X class and remember important concepts. It is not difficult to recollect important points as you have written the examination recently. With some slight effort you will be recollecting a large number of concepts.

I am preparing study guides for each chapter of Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics to provide you a daily plan of study and problem solving that will help you to complete the entire XI portion related to JEE by 31st December 2009. From January you can focus and prepare for Board examinations or school internal examinations with revision and solving some test papers at JEE level up to 30th April 2010.

Who or what motivates you?

Her answer: "I motivate me."

Her method: Five step exercise.

Five steps

1.What are your payoffs? List down the benefits or rewards from achieving or completing the task.

2. Find deeper meaning in your goals. Find compelling reasons for completing your goal.

3. Get your dreams at half price. Find more goals which can be reached with the work that you are putting in for reaching this goal. Work with a friend. Develop a plan to achieve the goal efficiently with less cost.

4. Stop underestimating your odds for success: Underestimating your odds to succeed can stop you dead in your tracks. Believe in your success till the end of the task.

Err on the side of optimism. Spend less time with people who discourage you on the task or goal. But don't just believe in positive thinking. Investigate the odds, have a real confidence that they are within your teach and always work on improving the odds.

5. Change your real odds or winning or improving odds: Learn from people who have succeeded in reaching the goal before.

Try to identify three important points every hour and try to think of them twice or thrice in that hour.

This may an easy way to accumulate knowledge throughout the day.

These three points can be repeated also after some days. You can recall these three points very easily and along with them many other points you learned during that hour will also be recalled by the memory system of yours.

Learn some points very very well and many more points will come out of your by an association mechanism.

Commit yourself to JEE

2008-09-02T23:38:00.000-07:00

Commit yourself to JEE as early as possible.

A JEE selection is as good as representing India at olympics. It is equivalent to becoming an MLA. At this point in time, your JEE selection is definitly equivalent to such achievements. It gives you the potential to achieve bigger things in future. Whether you will become an MLA or MP depends on how you use the opportunity in subsequent days.

I am writing this similarity so that you can feel the importance of your venture.

Early in life, secure your ranking in the society. Then you only have to maintain it from a position of advantage. Others have to challenge you from a position of disadvantage. They require three times effort to displace you from your rank.

Ganeshaya Namah

Today is Ganesh Chaturdhi.
The prayer is just completed.

It is an auspicious time to start this new blog. The blog is started to provide some inputs that facilitate learning for IIT JEE 2011 by students who are currently in X class.

The initiative by me to write on iit jee to help my daughter to some extent in her preparation has progressed well till now with around 25,000 visitors visiting various blogs related to IIT JEE. My job in the future is more simple because now I have to present the material prepared so far in a format more useful to aspirants. I started recently JEE 2010 blog wherein I am developing a one hour study session plan for chemistry, mathematics and physics. Thus three hours per day is spent in study of new material in each of the subjects. Additional time available is spent on revising lessons studied earlier and doing problems from variety of sources. A six month time schedule can be sufficient for study of entire material of an year. Rest of the time can be utilised for deeper understanding of the subject.
