  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor with air as medium is 3 μF. With the introduction of a dielectric medium between the plates, the capacitance becomes 15 μF. The permittivity of the medium is

    Solution
    Explanation:
    The capacitance of air capacitor
    \[
    C_{0}=\frac{A \varepsilon_{0}}{d}=3 \mu \mathrm{F}
    \]
    When a dielectric of permittivity \(\varepsilon_{r}\) or dielectric constant \(K\) is introduced between the plates of the capacitor, then its capacitance
    \[
    C=\frac{K A \varepsilon_{0}}{d}=15 \mu \mathrm{F} \ldots(\mathrm{ii})
    \]
    Dividing Eq. (ii) by Eq. (i)
    \[
    \begin{aligned}
    \frac{C}{C_{0}} &=\frac{\frac{K A_{0}}{d}}{\frac{d}{d}}=\frac{15}{3} \\
    & \therefore K=5
    \end{aligned}
    \]
    Permittivity of the medium
    \[
    \begin{aligned}
    \varepsilon=& \varepsilon_{0} K \\
    &=8.854 \times 10^{-12} \times 5 \\
    &=44.27 \times 10^{-12} \\
    =& 0.44 \times 10^{-10} \mathrm{C}^{2} \mathrm{N}^{-1} \mathrm{m}^{-2}
    \end{aligned}

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    The half-life period of radium is 1600 yr. The fraction of a sample of radium that would remain after 6400 yr is

    Solution

    Relation Between Half Life and Fraction of Nuclei Remaining UndecayedIt is often necessary to determine the fraction of radioactive material (or activity) that remains after a specific elapsed time. If the elapsed time is one half-life, the remaining fraction, f, is always 0.5 . If the elapsed time is not one half-life, the remaining fraction is the fraction 0.5 multiplied by itself the number of times corresponding to the number of half-lives. For example,
    1 half-life, f = 0.5
    2 half-lives, f = (0.5) x (0.5) = 0.25
    3 half-lives, f = (0.5) x (0.5) x (0.5) = 0.125
    4 half-lives, f = (0.5) x (0.5) x (0.5) x (0.5) = 0.0625.
    This can be expressed as
    f = (0.5)t/T = (0.5)n where t is the elapsed time, T is the half-life, and n is the number of half-lives.

    1 / -0

    A hollow charged metal sphere has radius r. If the potential difference between its surface and a point at a distance \(3 \mathrm{r}\) from the centre is \(\mathrm{V}\)

    then the electric field intensity at distance \(3 \mathrm{r}\) from the centre is -

    Solution

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    The resistance of a wire is R ohm. If it is melted and stretched to n times its orginal length, its new resistance will be

    Solution
  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    An unknown resistance R1 is connected in series with a resistance of 10 Ω. This combination is connected to one gap of meter bridge while a resistance R2 is connected in the other gap. The balance point is at 50 cm, Now, when the 10 Ω resistance is removed the balance point shifts to 40 cm. The value of R(in ohm) is

    Solution

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    A capacitor has capacitance C and reactance X if capacitance and frequency become double, then reactance will be

    Solution

    The reactance of capacitorX=1ωCwhereωis frequency and C is the capacitance of the capacitor.

    New reactance x' = x/4

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    In a Young’s double slit experiment, the distance between the two identical slits is 6.1 times larger than the slit width. Then the number of interference maxima observed within the central maximum of the single slit diffraction pattern is :

    Solution

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    Electromagnetic waves travel in a medium with a speed of × 108 ms1.The relative permeability of the medium is 1. Find the relative permittivity.

    Solution
    Given
    Speed of electromagnetic waves, \(\mathrm{v}=2 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}\)
    Relative permeability of the medium \(=1\) Speed of light, \(C=3 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}\)
    Using the formula of speed of electromagnetic wave in a medium,
    \[
    \begin{array}{l}
    \mathrm{v}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu \varepsilon}} \\
    \mathrm{v}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu_{0} \mu_{r}\left(\varepsilon_{0} \varepsilon_{r}\right)}} \\
    \mathrm{v}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu_{0} \varepsilon_{0}}} \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu_{r} \varepsilon_{r}}}
    \end{array}
    \]
    Therefore,
    Relative permittivity,
    \[
    \begin{aligned}
    \varepsilon_{r} &=\frac{c^{2}}{v^{2} \mu_{r}} \\
    &=\frac{\left(3 \times 10^{8}\right)^{2}}{\left(2 \times 10^{8}\right)^{2} \times 1} \\
    &=2.25
    \end{aligned}
    \]
