1. A particle P starts from the point z0 = 1 + 2
i , where
i = 1 . It moves first horizontally away from
origin by 5 units and then vertically away from origin by 3 units to reach a point z1 . From z

particle moves 2 units in the direction of the vector j�i� and then it moves through an angle 2
in
anticlockwise direction on a circle with centre at origin , to reach a point z2 . The point z

p q r s
p q r s
p q r s
p q r s

A
B
C
D
If the correct matches are A-p, B-q, B-r, C-p, C-q and D-s, then the correctlybubbled 4 × 4 matrix should be as follows.
[ For every correct answer + 6 marks will be awarded (if all options are marked correctly) and no negative marking for wrong answer ]
64. Match the compounds in Column I with their characteristic test(s)/reaction(s) given in Column II. Indicateyour answer by darkening the appropriate bubbles of the 4 × 4 matrix given in the ORS.
