  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    Two parallel wires PQ and ST, placed a distance w apart, are connected by a resistor R as shown in the figure and placed in a magnetic field B which is perpendicular to the plane containing the wires. A rod CD connects the two wires. The power spent to slide the rod CD with a velocity v along the wires is (neglect the resistance of the wires and that of the rod):

    Solution

    When wire CD is made to slide on wires PQ and ST, the flux linked with the circuit changes with time and hence an emf is induced in the circuit, which is given by:

    \(| e |=\frac{ d \phi}{ dt }=\frac{ d }{ dt }( BA )= B \frac{ dA }{ dt }\)

    The induced current is: \(I=\frac{e}{R}=\frac{B w v}{R}\)

    This current is caused by the motion of wire CD. From Lenz's law, the current I opposes the motion of wire \(C D\). Therefore, work has to be done to slide the wire CD. Now, the magnetic force on wire CD (of length \(w\) ) is

    \(F = BIw = B \left(\frac{ Bw }{ R }\right) w =\frac{ B ^2 w ^2 v }{ R }\)

    Work done is sliding wire \(C D\) through a small distance \(d x\) in time \(d t\) is

    \(dW = Fdx\)

    Therefore, the work done per second is

    \(P =\frac{ dW }{ dt }= F \frac{ dx }{ dt }= Fv\)

    Using equation (1), we get

    \(P =\frac{ B ^2 w ^2 v ^2}{ R }\)

    \(P = \frac{(B w v)^2}{R}\)

  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    The motor of an electric train can give it an acceleration of \(1 ~m/s^{2}\) and its brakes can give it a negative acceleration of \(3 ~m/s^{2}\). The shortest time in which the train can make a trip between two stations \(1350 ~m\) apart is
    Solution
    Let total distance be \(S\)
    \(S\)= \(1350\) \(m\)
    Let \(a=1 ~m / s^{2}\)
    \(r=3 ~m/s^{2}\)
    Let \(S_{1}\) be the distance covered with positive acceleration
    Let \(S_{2}\) be the distance travelled with negative acceleration
    We know \(v^{2}-u^{2}=2 ~a s\)
    Therefore, \(S_{1}=\frac{\left(v^{2}-u^{2}\right)}{2a}\) ……..\((i)\)
    And \(S_{2}=\frac{\left(v^{2}-u^{2}\right)}{2r}\) ……..\((ii)\)
    Now, \(v\) and \(u\) are same for the train
    There \(v^{2}-u^{2}\) is same for both equations
    Equation \((i)\) divided by \((ii)\) give
    \(\frac{S_{1}}{S_{2}}=\frac{r}{a}\)
    i.e., \(\frac{S_{1}}{S_{2}}=\frac{3}{1}\)
    \(S_{1}=3 ~S_{2}\)
    Now, \(S_{2}=S-S_{1}\)
    Therefore, \(S_{1}=3\left (S-S_{1}\right)\)
    l.e, \(S_{1}=3 S-3 S_{1}\)
    \(4 S_{1}=3 S\)
    \(S_{1}=\frac{3}{4} × S = \frac{(3 × 1350)}{4} = 1012.5 ~m\)
    And so \(S_{2}=\frac{1}{4} × S = \frac{1350}{4} = 337.5 ~m\)
    Now, \(S_{1}=u+\frac{1}{2} × a × t^{2}\)
    \(u=0\) as train starts from rest
    \(1012.5=\frac{1}{2} × 1 × t_{1}^{2}\)
    \(t_{1}^{2}=2025\)
    \(t_{1}=45~s \)
    Also \(S_{2}=\frac{1}{2} × r × t_{2}^{2}\)
    \(337.5=\frac{3}{2} × t_{2}^{2}\)
    \(t_{2}^{2}=225\)
    \(t_{2}=15 ~s \)
    Therefore, total time
    \(T=t_{1}+t_{2}\)
    \(T=45+15\)
    \(T=60~s \)
    Therefore, total time taken by train \(=60~s \)
  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    The initial mass of a rocket is \(1000 \mathrm{~kg}\). Calculate at what rate the fuel should be burnt, so that the rocket is given an acceleration of \(20 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\). The gases come out at a relative speed of \(500 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\) with respect to the rocket [Use, \(\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\) ]

    Solution

    \(\text { Given, } \mathrm{M}=1000 \mathrm{~kg}, \mathrm{a}=20 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2 \)

    \(\mathrm{v}_{\text {relative }}=500 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}, \mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\)

    The given situation is shown below

    \(\mathrm{F}_{\text {thrust }}=\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{dt}}\left(\mathrm{Mv}_{\text {relative }}\right) \)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{F}_{\text {thrust }}=v_{\text {relative }}\left(\frac{\mathrm{dM}}{\mathrm{dt}}\right)\)

    By Newton's second law of motion,

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{F}_{\text {thrust }}-\mathrm{Mg}=\mathrm{Ma}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{v}_{\text {relative }}\left(\frac{\mathrm{dM}}{\mathrm{dt}}\right)-\mathrm{Mg}=\mathrm{Ma} \)

    \(\Rightarrow 500\left(\frac{\mathrm{dM}}{\mathrm{dt}}\right)-1000 \times 10=1000 \times 20 \)

    \(\Rightarrow 500\left(\frac{\mathrm{dM}}{\mathrm{dt}}\right)=1000(20+10)\)

    \(\Rightarrow 500\left(\frac{\mathrm{dM}}{\mathrm{dt}}\right)=1000 \times 30 \)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{dM}}{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{1000 \times 30}{500}=60\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{dM}}{\mathrm{dt}}=60 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{s}\)

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    Which of the following statements is true/false?

    A. An ion is a charged particle and can be negatively or positively charged. A negatively charged ion is called an anion and a positively charged ion, a cation

    B. An ion is a charged particle and can be negative or positively charged. A negatively charged ion is called a cation. And a positively charged ion, an anion.

    Solution

    An ion is an atom or a group of atoms that does not equal the number of electrons to the number of protons.Electrons have a negative charge, whereas there is a positive charge for protons.This results in a negative charge when an atom gains electrons. An anion is called this form of ion.This results in a positive charge when an atom loses electrons. A cation is considered a positively-charged ion.Usually, positive ions are metals or behave like metals.Just like atoms may lose electrons to become cations, others can absorb electrons and become anions that are negatively charged.

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    Two identical metal wires of thermal conductivities \(\mathrm{K}_1\) and \(\mathrm{K}_2\) respectively are connected in series. The effective thermal conductivity of the combination is

    Solution

    Two identical metal wires of thermal conductivities \(\mathrm{K}_1\) and \(\mathrm{K}_2\) respectively are connected in series are represented as follows

    The above figure can also be represented as

    Therefore, the effective thermal conductivity of the combination will be given by

    \(\begin{aligned} & R_{e f f}=\frac{I}{\mathrm{~K}_1 A}+\frac{I}{\mathrm{~K}_2 \mathrm{~A}}=\frac{21}{\mathrm{~K}_{e q} \mathrm{~A}} \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{2 \mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{K}_{e q} \mathrm{~A}}=\frac{1}{\mathrm{~A}}\left(\frac{1}{\mathrm{~K}_1}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{~K}_2}\right) \Rightarrow \frac{2 \mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{K}_{e q} \mathrm{~A}}=\frac{I}{\mathrm{~A}}\left(\frac{\mathrm{K}_1+\mathrm{K}_2}{\mathrm{~K}_1 \mathrm{~K}_2}\right) \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{2}{\mathrm{~K}_{e q}}=\frac{\mathrm{K}_1+\mathrm{K}_2}{\mathrm{~K}_1 \mathrm{~K}_2} \Rightarrow \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{eq}}=\frac{2 \mathrm{~K}_1 \mathrm{~K}_2}{\mathrm{~K}_1+\mathrm{K}_2}\end{aligned}\)

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    The moment of inertia of the hollow sphere and solid sphere is equal then what is the ratio between their radius?

    Solution

    Moment of inertia:

    • Moment of inertia of a rigid body about a fixed axis is defined as the sum of the product of the masses of the particles constituting the body and the square of their respective distances from the axis of the rotation.
    • Moment of inertia of a particle is

    I = mr2

    Where r = the perpendicular distance of the particle from the rotational axis.

    Moment of inertia of a body made up of a number of particles (discrete distribution)

    I = m1r12 + m2r22 + m3r32 + m4r42 + -------

    Given \(-I_{s}=I_{h}=I\) (let) and Mass of solid sphere \(=\) mass of hollow sphere

    - The moment of inertia of a solid sphere of mass 'M' and radius \({ }^{\prime} R_{1}\) ' about its diameter is

    \(\Rightarrow I_{s}=\frac{2}{5} M R_{1}^{2}\) ........... (1)

    - The moment of inertia of a hollow sphere of mass 'M' and radius \({ }^{\prime} R_{2}{ }^{\prime}\) about its diameter is

    \(\Rightarrow I_{h}=\frac{2}{3} M R_{2}^{2}\) .......... (2)

    On equating equation 1 and 2, we get

    \(\Rightarrow I_{S}=I_{h}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{2}{5} M R_{1}^{2}=\frac{2}{3} M R_{2}^{2}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}}=\sqrt{\frac{3}{5}}\)

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    If the kinetic energy of a body is increased nine times then the momentum of the body will be increased by:

    Solution

    Given,

    \(KE _{2}=9 KE _{1}\)

    We know that the kinetic energy of a body is given as,

    \( K E=\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}\)...(1)

    The linear momentum of a body is given as,

    \( P = mv\)...(2)

    By equation (1) and equation (2) the relation between the kinetic energy and the momentum is given as,

    \( K E=\frac{P^{2}}{2 m}\)...(3)

    By equation (3) for the initial position,

    \( K E_{1}=\frac{P_{1}^{2}}{2 m}\)...(4)

    By equation (3) for the final position,

    \( K E_{2}=\frac{P_{2}^{2}}{2 m} \)

    \(\Rightarrow 9 \times K E_{1}=\frac{P_{2}^{2}}{2 m}\)...(5)

    By equation (4) and equation (5),

    \(\frac{P_{2}^{2}}{2 m} \times \frac{2 m}{P_{1}^{2}}=\frac{9 \times K E_{1}}{K E_{1}}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{P_{2}^{2}}{P_{1}^{2}}=9 \)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}}=3 \)

    \(\Rightarrow P_{2}=3 P_{1}\)

    So, if the kinetic energy of a body is increased nine times then the momentum of the body will be increased by three times.

    Human eyecannot detect polarization of light.

    Polarization changes when plane of vibration of polarized light changes.Human eye is insensitive to change in polarization and hence, cannot detect polarization of light.

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    Four particles each of mass M, move along a circle of radius R under the action of their mutual gravitational attraction as shown in figur. The speed of each particle is

    Solution

    Let us consider the gravitational force acting on each mass M by adjacent particles be F.

    and the gravitational force acting on each mass M diagonally be F1

    The net force, \(\mathrm{F}_{\text {net }}=\frac{\mathrm{Mv}^2}{\mathrm{R}}\)

    Along the centre of circle,

    \(\sqrt{2} \mathrm{~F}+\mathrm{F}_1=\frac{\mathrm{Mv}^2}{\mathrm{R}} \)

    \(\sqrt{2}\left(\frac{\mathrm{GMM}}{(\sqrt{2} \mathrm{R})^2}\right)+\left(\frac{\mathrm{GMM}}{(2 \mathrm{R})^2}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{Mv}^2}{\mathrm{R}} \)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{GM}}{\mathrm{R}^2}\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}+\frac{1}{4}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{v}^2}{\mathrm{R}} \)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{v}=\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{GM}(2 \sqrt{2}+1)}{\mathrm{R}}}\)

    Hence, the speed of each particle is \(\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{GM}(2 \sqrt{2}+1)}{R}}\).
