  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    A battery of emf \(10 \mathrm{~V}\) and internal resistance \(3 \Omega\) is connected to a resistor. If the current in the circuit is \(0.5 \mathrm{~A}\), what is the resistance of the resistor? What is the terminal voltage of the battery when the circuit is closed?

    Solution

    Given, EMF of battery, \(\varepsilon=10 \mathrm{~V}\)

    Internal resistance of battery, \(\mathrm{r}=3 \Omega\)

    Current flowing in the circuit, I \(=0.5 \mathrm{~A}\)

    Using the formula \(\mathrm{I}=\frac{\varepsilon}{\mathrm{R}+\mathrm{r}}\)

    or \(\mathrm{R}=\frac{\varepsilon}{\mathrm{I}}-\mathrm{r}\)

    where, \(R\) is the external resistance.

    \(\therefore \quad \mathrm{R}=\frac{10}{0.5}-3=17 \Omega\) is the required resistance.

    Terminal voltage, \(\mathrm{V}\) \(=\mathrm{IR} \)

    \(=0.5 \times 17 \)

    \(=8.5 \mathrm{~V}\)

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    Lenz law is consequence of the law of conservation of:

    Solution

    In the above experiment when the \(N\)-pole of the magnet is moved towards the coil. Thus work has to be done against the force of repulsion in bringing the magnets close. When the \(N\) pole of the magnet is moved away, the south pole develops on the right face of the coil. Therefore work has to be done in this case. This mechanical work in moving the magnet changes into electrical energy producing induced current.

     

    Hence energy transformation takes place. We can say that the law is a consequence of the conservation of energy.

  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    Which one of the following is not correct statement?

    Solution

    The thermionic emissions and photoelectric emissions are not the same. During thermionic emissions, the electrons are emitted from the metal surface by providing heat energy, whereas, during photoelectric emission light energy is emitted when electrons are emitted from the surface of the metal. So, it is the opposite in operation.

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    An electromagnetic wave going through vacuum is described by 

    \(E = E _{0} \sin ( kx -\omega t), B = B _{0} \sin ( kx -\omega t)\) Then:

    Solution

    The relation between \(E _{0}\) and \(B _{0}\) is given by 

    \(\frac{ E _{0}}{ B _{0}}= c \ldots\) (i)

    Here, \(c=\) Speed of the electromagnetic wave,

    The relation between \(\omega\) (the angular frequency) and \(k\) (wave number), 

    \(\frac{\omega}{ k }= c \ldots\) (ii)

    Therefore, from (i) and (ii), we get \(\frac{ E _{0}}{ B _{0}}=\frac{\omega}{ k }= c \)

    \(E _{0} k = B _{0} \omega\)

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    The velocity of a freely falling body depends on \(g^{p} h^{q}\), where \(g\) is acceleration due to gravity and \(h\) is the height. The values of \(p\) and \(q\) are:

    Solution

    Given:

    \(v \propto g^{p} h^{q}\)

    We know that:

    \(v=\left[\mathrm{L} \mathrm{T}^{-1}\right]\)

    \(g=\left[\mathrm{L} \mathrm{T}^{-2}\right]\)

    \(h=[\mathrm{L}]\)

    By substituting the dimension of each quantity and comparing the powers in both sides we get:

    \({\left[\mathrm{L} \mathrm{T}^{-1}\right]=\left[\mathrm{L} \mathrm{T}^{-2}\right]^{\mathrm{p}}[\mathrm{L}]^{\mathrm{q}}} \)

    \(\Rightarrow {\left[\mathrm{L} \mathrm{T}^{-1}\right]=\left[\mathrm{L}^{\mathrm{p}+\mathrm{q}} \mathrm{T}^{-2 \mathrm{p}}\right]}\)

    On comparing the powers

    \( p+q=1,-2 p=-1 \)

    \(\therefore p=\frac{1}{2}, q=\frac{1}{2}\)

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    A particle moves in a straight line with a retardation proportional to its displacement. Its loss of kinetic energy for any displacement x is proportional to:

    Solution

    Given that,

    a∝−x

    ⇒a=−kx

    Now using \(a=\frac{v d v}{d x}\)

    \(\Rightarrow v d v=-k x d x\)

    \(\Rightarrow \quad \int_{v_1}^{v_2} v d v=-k \int_0^x x d x\)

    \(\Rightarrow \quad \frac{v_2^2-v_1^2}{2}=\frac{-k \cdot x^2}{2}\)

    or, \(\left(v_1^2-v_2^2\right)=k x^2\)

    Now, loss in kinetic energy is given by

    \(\Delta K \cdot E=\frac{1}{2} m v_1^2-\frac{1}{2} m v_2^2\)

    \(=\frac{1}{2} m\left(v_1^2-v_2^2\right)=\frac{k m x^2}{2}\)

    Thus, the loss in kinetic energy is proportional to \(x^2\).

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    An inductor and a capacitor are connected in an A.C. circuit inductance and capacitance are 1 H and 25μF then for maximum current, the angular frequency will be (the circuit is connected in series):

    Solution

    Given \(L =1 H\) and \(C =25 \mu F\)

    The current in the LC circuit becomes maximum when resonance occurs. So,

    \(\Rightarrow \nu=\frac{1}{2 \pi \sqrt{L C}}\)

    Angular frequency,

    \(\Rightarrow \omega=2 \pi v\)

    From equation 1 and equation 2 ,

    \( \Rightarrow \omega=\frac{1}{\sqrt{L C}} \)

    \(\Rightarrow \omega=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 \times 25 \times 10^{-6}}} \)

    \( \Rightarrow \omega=200 rad / sec\)

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    Mayank is doing an experiment in the lab with a bob of mass 10 Kg and a string of 6 m. He tied a string with the laboratory roof and another end with the bob. He then tied another string at 3 m below the roof with the previous one as shown in the figure. Find the tension T1 in the string? g =10 m/s2

    Solution

    Given, 

    m = 10 Kg

    g = 10 m/s2

    First draw the free body diagram of the given figure,

    Now resolve all forces into a horizontal and a vertical component.

    ​Horizontal Component \(= 100 \cos45^\circ =100\times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)

    \(= 50\sqrt{2} N\)

    Vertical Component \(= 100\sin45^\circ=100\times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)

    \(= 50\sqrt{2} N\)

    For the system to be in equilibrium \(T_{1}\) must be equal to the horizontal component but the direction must be opposite.

    Here the direction of \(T_{1}\) is reversed for balancing the horizontal component.

    \( T _{2}=50 \sqrt{2 } N\)

    \( T _{1}=-50 \sqrt{2} N\)

    So, the value of \(T_{1}\) is \(-50 \sqrt{2} N\).(Negative sign only show the direction of \(T_{1}\).)

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    According to Kepler's law of motion, the planets orbit around the sun in a/an orbit.

    Solution

    Kepler's first law explains that planets orbit the sun in a path described as an ellipse. It is not circular.

    That is why the distance between the earth and the sun is not constant. It is changing.

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    A bullet fired into a fixed target loses half of its velocity after penetrating \(3 {~cm}\). How much further will it penetrate before coming to rest assuming that it faces constant resistance to motion?

    Solution

    Let initial velocity of the bullet = u

    After penetrating \(3 \mathrm{~cm}\) its velocity becomes \(\frac{\mathrm{u}}{2}\) 

    From \(v^2=u^2-2 a s\)

    \(\left(\frac{u}{2}\right)^2=u^2-2 a(3)\)

    \(\Rightarrow 6 a=\frac{3 u^2}{4} \Rightarrow a=\frac{u^2}{8}\)

    Let further it will penetrate through distance \(x\) and stops at point \(C\).

    For distance \(B C, v=0, u=\frac{u}{2}, s=x, a=\frac{u^2}{8}\)

    From \(v^2=u^2-2 a s \Rightarrow 0=\left(\frac{u}{2}\right)^2-2\left(\frac{u^2}{8}\right) \cdot x \Rightarrow x=1 \mathrm{~cm}\).

    \(=1255800 \mathrm{~J}\)

    \(Q_{4}=\) Heat required to convert water at \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) to steam at \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)

    \(=6768000 \mathrm{~J}\)

    Heat required to convert \(3 \mathrm{~kg}\) of ice at \(-12^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) to steam at \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\),

    \(=75600 \mathrm{~J}+1005000 \mathrm{~J}+1255800 \mathrm{~J}+6768000 \mathrm{~J}\)

    \(=9.1 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{~J}\)

  • Question 12
    1 / -0

    A free electron is placed in the path of a plane electromagnetic wave. The electron will start moving:

    Solution

    As the electron is at rest initially, only the electric field will exert force on it. There will be no magnetic force on the electron in the stating. So, the electron will start moving along the electric field.

    A silicon diode has a threshold voltage of \(0.7 \mathrm{~V}\).

    Input voltage =\(2 \sin (\pi \mathrm{t})\)

    Peak value of rectified output voltage \(=\) Peak value of input voltage \(-\) Input voltage

    \(=2-0.7\)

  • Question 14
    1 / -0

    Vector A has a magnitude of 10 units and makes an angle of 30° with the positive \(x\)−axis. Vector B has a magnitude of 20 units and makes an angle of 30° with the negative \(x\)−axis. What is the magnitude of the resultant between these two vectors?

    Solution

    Given,

    \(|\vec{A}|=10\) units

    \(|\vec{B}|=20\) units

    Angle between \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{B}\),

  • Question 15
    1 / -0

    A point charge \(+10 \mu C\) is a distance \(5 \mathrm{~cm}\) directly above the centre of a square of side \(10 \mathrm{~cm}\), as shown in the figure. What is the magnitude of the electric flux through the square?

    (Hint: Think of the square as one face of a cube with edge \(10 \mathrm{~cm}\).)

    Solution
    The square can be considered as one face of a cube of edge \(10 \mathrm{~cm}\) with a centre where charge \(q\) is placed. According to Gauss's theorem for a cube, total electric flux is through all its six faces. \(\phi_{\text {total }}=\frac{q}{\epsilon_{0}}\)
    Thus, electric flux through one face of the cube i.e., through the square, \(\phi=\frac{\phi_{\text {total }}}{6}\) \(=\frac{1}{6} \frac{q}{\epsilon_{0}}\)
    Where, \(\epsilon_{0}=\) Permittivity of free space \(=8.854 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{~N}^{-1} \mathrm{C}^{2} \mathrm{~m}^{-2}\)
    \(q=10 \mu C=10 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{C}\)
    \(\therefore=\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{10 \times 10^{-6}}{8.854 \times 10^{-12}}\) \(=1.88 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{~m}^{2} \mathrm{C}^{-1}\)
