Physics VTU Important Questions (Module Wise)

This document contains important physics questions from 5 modules that cover topics such as photoelectric effect, quantum mechanics, lasers, optics, crystallography, and nanomaterials. Module 1 questions focus on early quantum concepts like the photoelectric effect, de Broglie hypothesis, and the Schrodinger equation. Module 2 examines quantum theories of solids including free electron theory and superconductivity. Module 3 discusses lasers, optical fibers, and applications like welding. Module 4 is about crystal structures, X-ray diffraction, and packing factors. The final module involves preparation methods for nanomaterials as well as microscopes and shock waves. The questions range from conceptual explanations to derivations of equations.
