CBSE Class 12 Physics Sample Paper 2023-24 with Solution: CBSE Class 12 Physics exam 2024 is scheduled for March 4, 2024. At this time, t he sample question paper and marking scheme of CBSE Physics for 12th class candidates of the 2023-2024 academic session is of great value. This year CBSE has broken its own records by releasing the sample papers this early, right at the beginning of the academic year. Notably, this would help the students because right from the beginning of the session the students will know what kind of questions to expect in their question paper from each topic. On this note, check the Class 12 Physics sample question paper and marking scheme PDFs below.

The 2024 Physics exam is going to be conducted for 70 marks. The time duration for students to attempt the paper will be 3 hours.

The general instructions provided at the beginning of the CBSE 12 Physics sample paper are:

General Instructions:

(1) There are 33 questions in all. All questions are compulsory.

(2) This question paper has five sections: Section A, Section B, Section C, Section D and Section E.

(3) All the sections are compulsory.

(4) Section A contains sixteen questions, twelve MCQ and four Assertion Reasoning based of 1 mark each, Section B contains five questions of two marks each, Section C contains seven questions of three marks each, Section D contains two case study based questions of four marks each and Section E contains three long answer questions of five marks each.

(5) There is no overall choice. However, an internal choice has been provided in one question in Section B, one question in Section C, one question in each CBQ in Section D and all three questions in Section E. You have to attempt only one of the choices in such questions.

(6) Use of calculators is not allowed.

(7) You may use the following values of physical constants where ever necessary

For Questions 13 to 16, two statements are given –one labelled Assertion (A) and other

labelled Reason (R). Select the correct answer to these questions from the options as

a) If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is correct explanation of Assertion.

b) If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

c) If Assertion is true but Reason is false.

d) If both Assertion and Reason are false.

13 Assertion (A): For the radiation of a frequency greater than the threshold frequency, photoelectric current is proportional to the intensity of the radiation.

Reason (R) : Greater the number of energy quanta available, greater is the number of electrons absorbing the energy quanta and greater is number of electrons coming out of the metal.

14 Assertion (A) : Putting p type semiconductor slab directly in physical contact with n type semiconductor slab cannot form the pn junction.

Reason (R) : The roughness at contact will be much more than inter atomic crystal spacing and continuous flow of charge carriers is not possible.

15 Assertion (A) : An electron has a higher potential energy when it is at a location associated with a negative value of potential and has a lower potential energy when at a location associated with a positive potential.

Reason (R) : Electrons move from a region of higher potential to a region of lower potential.
