  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    The charge on a parallel plate capacitor varies as $$q = {q}_{0}cos2vt$$. The plates are very large and close together  (area = A, separation = d ) , the displacement current through the capacitor is
    Solution
    Given :  $$q = q_0 \cos 2vt$$
    To find : $$I_d = ?$$
    Formula : $$I_d = \dfrac{dq}{dt}$$
    Sol : From formula,
    The displacement current through the capacitor
    $$I_d= \dfrac{dq}{dt} = \dfrac{d}{dt} (q_0\cos 2vt) = -q_0 \sin 2vt \times 2v$$
    $$\therefore I_d = -q_02v \sin 2vt$$
    $$\therefore $$ Correct option is (B)
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Two opposite charged particles oscillate about their mean equilibrium position in free space, with a frequency of $${10}^{9}Hz$$. The wavelength of the corresponding electromagnetic wave produced is ______
    Solution
    Electromagnetic wave $$V=3\times10^8m/s$$
    Given frequency $$(f)=10^9 Hz$$
    $$V=f\lambda\\ \lambda=\cfrac{V}{f}=\cfrac{3\times 10^8}{10^9}=0.3m$$
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    The rms value of the electric field of the light coming from sun is 720 N $$C^{-1}$$. The average total energy density of the electromagnetic wave is
    Solution
    Given: The RMS value of the electric field of light is $$720\ N/C$$.

    Energy density of electromagnetic wave is given by:
    $$E=\epsilon_0 E_{rms}^2$$

         $$=8.85\times 10^{-12}\times (720)^2$$

    $$E\approx 4.58\times 10^{-6}J/m^3$$

    Option $$(B)$$ is corret.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    An electromagnetic wave radiates outwards from a dipole antenna, with $${ E }_{ 0 }$$ as the amplitude of its electric field vector. The electric field $${ E }_{ 0 }$$ which transports significant energy from the source falls off as
    Solution
    A diode antenna radiates the electromagnetic wave outwards. The amplitude of electric field vector $$(E_0)$$ which transports significant energy from the source falls intensity inversely as the distance (r) from the antenna,

     i.e,$$ E_{0}\propto \dfrac{1}{r}$$
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    One requires 11eV of energy to dissociate of carbon monoxide molecule into carbon and oxygen atoms. The minimum frequency of the appropriate electromagnetic radiation to achieve the dissociation lies in:
    Solution
    The energy required for the dissociation is given by:
    $$E=h\nu$$

    $$\Rightarrow 11\times{1.6\times10^{-19}}=6.626\times10^{-34}\times\nu$$

    $$\Rightarrow \nu=2.656\times 10^{15}\ Hz$$

    Hence, the frequency required for the dissociation is $$2.656\times 10^{15}\ Hz$$ and it lies in the range of  UV region.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    A parallel plate capacitor with circular plates of radius $$R$$ is being charged as shown. At the instant shown, the displacement current in the region between the plates enclosed between $$\cfrac{R}{2}$$ and $$R$$ is given by

    Solution

    Displacement current is given by

      $$ I={{\varepsilon }_{0}}\dfrac{d{{\phi }_{e}}}{dt} $$

     $$ =\,{{\varepsilon }_{0}}A\dfrac{dE}{dt}\,\,\,\,(\because \,\phi =A.E) $$

     $$ =A\dfrac{d}{dt}\left(\dfrac{q}{{{A}^{'}}}\right) $$

     $$ =\dfrac{A}{{{A}^{'}}}i\,\,(\because \dfrac{dq}{dt}=i) $$

     $$ =\dfrac{\pi {{\left(\dfrac{R}{2}\right)}^{2}}}{\pi {{R}^{2}}} $$

     $$ =\dfrac{1}{4}i $$

     

  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    A radiation of energy E falls normally on a perfectly reflecting surface. The momentum transferred to the surface is:
    Solution
    Hint:-Momentum transfered to surface is equal to change in momentum of radiation.

    Step 1: WRITE INITIAL AND FINAL MOMENTUM OF RADIATION 

    $$P_i = \dfrac{E}{c}$$  and  $$P_f = \dfrac{-E}{c}$$ too.


    Step 2: CALCULATE MOMENTUM TRANSFERED TO SURFACE 
    Momentum transferred to the surface $$\Rightarrow P_{final} – P_{initial}.$$
    So,

    Net Momentum $$= \dfrac{E}{c}-(-\dfrac{E}{c}) \Rightarrow \dfrac{2E}{c}$$ .
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    A plane polarized monochromatic $$EM$$ wave is traveling in vacuum along $$z$$ direction such that at $$t={t}_{1}$$ it is found that the electric field is zero at a spatial point $${z}_{1}$$. The next zero that occurs in its neighborhood is at $${z}_{2}$$. The frequency of the electromagnetic wave is:
    Solution
    From question:
    $$\begin{array}{l} \frac { \lambda  }{ 2 } =\left| { { z_{ 2 } }-{ z_{ 1 } } } \right| \Rightarrow \lambda =2\left| { { z_{ 2 } }-{ z_{ 1 } } } \right|  \\ c=f\times \lambda \Rightarrow f=\frac { c }{ \lambda  } =\frac { { 3\times { { 10 }^{ 8 } } } }{ { 2\left| { { z_{ 2 } }-{ z_{ 1 } } } \right|  } } =\frac { { 1.5\times { { 10 }^{ 8 } } } }{ { \left| { { z_{ 2 } }-{ z_{ 1 } } } \right|  } }  \end{array}\begin{array}{l} \frac { \lambda  }{ 2 } =\left| { { z_{ 2 } }-{ z_{ 1 } } } \right| \Rightarrow \lambda =2\left| { { z_{ 2 } }-{ z_{ 1 } } } \right|  \\ c=f\times \lambda \Rightarrow f=\frac { c }{ \lambda  } =\frac { { 3\times { { 10 }^{ 8 } } } }{ { 2\left| { { z_{ 2 } }-{ z_{ 1 } } } \right|  } } =\frac { { 1.5\times { { 10 }^{ 8 } } } }{ { \left| { { z_{ 2 } }-{ z_{ 1 } } } \right|  } }  \end{array}$$
    zero electric field occurs at half of wavelength

    The intensity of sun on earth is $$1400 W/m^2$$. Assuming earth to be a black body. Calculate radiation pressure?
    Solution

  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    The electric field associated with an e.m. wave in vacuum is given by $$\vec {E} = 40\cos (kz - 6\times 10^{8}t)\hat {i}$$, where $$E, z$$ and $$t$$ in $$volt/m$$, meter and seconds respectively. The value of wave vector $$k$$ is
    Solution
    Given: The electric field associated with  an electromagnetic wave in vacuum is given by $$\vec E =40 \cos(kz−6\times 10^8t)\hat i$$  , where E, z and t are in volt per meter, meter and second respectively.
    To find the value of wave vector k
    Solution: 
    We know electromagnetic wave eqution is
    $$E=E_0\cos(kz-\omega t)$$
    And given equation is
    $$\vec E =40 \cos(kz−6\times 10^8t)\hat i$$
    By comparing these two, we get
    $$\omega=6\times10^8$$ and 
    $$E_0=40\hat i$$
    we also know,
    Speed of electromagnetic wave, $$v=\dfrac \omega k$$
    where v is the speed of the light
    Hence, $$k=\dfrac \omega v\\\implies k=\dfrac {6\times 10^8}{3\times 10^8}\\\implies k=2m^{-1}$$
    is the required value
