If (5, 12) and (24, 7) are the foci of a conic, passing through the origin then the eccentricity of conic is

Answer»

For an ellipse or hyperbola distance between foci = 2ae = √(19²+5²) = √(386)  

 For an ellipse, sum of focal radii = 2a. For a hyperbola difference of focal radii = 2a   

Focal radii are √(24²+7²) = 25 and √(5²+12²) = 13   

∴ for ellipse 2a = 25+13 = 38 and so e = 2ae /2a = √(386) / 38   

And for a hyperbola 2a = 25−13 = 12 and so e = 2ae / 2a = √(386) / 12

Three equations are given below. After studying it, write about Acid rain. (1) CO2 (g) + H2O(l) → 2H+ (aq) + CO32- (aq) (2) 2SO2 (g) + O2(g) +2H2O(l) → 2H2SO4 (aq) (3) 4NO2 (g) + O2(g) + 2H2O(l) → 2HNO3(aq)

Answer»

Oxides of Sulphur and Nitrogen, mist of HCI and Phosphoric acid, etc. present in polluted air dissolve in rain water making it more acidic. This is known as acidic rain. SO2 and NO2 present in polluted air are the major contributors of acid rain.

2SO2 (g) + O2(g) +2H2O(l) → 2H2SO4 (aq) 

4NO2 (g) + O2(g) + 2H2O(l) → 2HNO3(aq)

Your school celebrated a two days ‘Van – Mahotsav’ programme last week. Write a report on it in about 100 words. 

Answer»

Van Mahotsav - 2019 

Ajmer, March 07, 2019 

The ‘Van Mahotsav’ was celebrated in Royal Rajasthan Public School, Ajmer with a lot of enthusiasm on March 06, 2019. In an age where the jungles are more asphalt than natural, the staff and students came together to plant saplings all along the roads of the campus after breakfast. The sky was completely overcast and there was a light drizzle. One could not have asked for a better weather to plant trees in the rainy season. 

The event started shortly after ten o’clock in the morning where the boys of the Junior School with their staff members came out to plant saplings with the gardeners. This was followed with the boys of the Senior School with their house staff. The boys displayed great enthusiasm in wanting to learn how saplings are planted and were constantly asking intelligent questions to the gardeners about the plants. It was heartening to see the senior functionaries of the school along with the staff, the students and the gardeners work hand-in-hand together as a team. There was frolic and laughter and cheerful faces as everyone was hard at work. The trees planted today will serve as a beautiful memory left behind by the students. For when they come back, they will have indeed a story to tell of how the little sapling they planted grew with them just as they have.

Find the equation of the hyperbola whose foci are (8,4) and (0,4) and has am eccentricity of 2

Answer»

Focus of hyperbola are (8,4) and (0,4).

Hence,

Focus of hyperbola lie on line y = 4,

(Parallel to x-axis)

∴ Centre of the hyperbola is mid-point of both focus = (\(\frac{8+0}{2}\),\(\frac{4+4}{2}\)

= (4,4)

∵ Eccentrictiy of hyperbola is e = 2.

We know that,

Focus one at a distance of ae from the centre.

∵ Distance of focus (0,4) and centre (4,4) = ae

⇒ ae = 4

⇒ a = \(\frac{4}{e}\)

\(\frac{4}{2}\) = 2.

We also know that in hyperbola,

e = \(\sqrt{1+\frac{b^2}{a^2}}\)

⇒ \(1+\frac{b^2}{a^2}\) = e2

⇒ b2 = (e2 - 1)a2

⇒ b2 = (22 - 1) x 22 = (4 - 1) x 4 = 12

⇒ b = \(\sqrt{12}\).

Since,

Centre of the hyperbola is (4,4) & a2 = 4,b2 = 12 and focus of hyperbola lies on a line parallel to x - axis.

∴ Equation of hyperbola is \(\frac{(x-4)^2}{a^2}\) - \(\frac{(y-4)^2}{b^2}\) = 1

⇒ \(\frac{(x-4)^2}{4}\) - \(\frac{(y-4)^2}{12}\) = 1

22. Two simple harmonic motions are represented by the equations \( y_{1}=10 \sin \left(3 \pi t+\frac{\pi}{4}\right) \) and \( y_{2}=5(3 \sin 3 \pi t+\sqrt{3} \cos 3 \pi t) \). Their amplitudes are in the ratio ofa. \( \sqrt{3} \)b. \( 1 / \sqrt{3} \)C. 2d. \( 1 / 6 \)

Answer»

Given,

y1 = 10 sin (3πt + \(\frac{\pi}{4}\))

y2 = 5 (3 sin3πt + \(\sqrt 3\) cos3πt)

y2 = 15 sin3πt + \(5\sqrt 3\) cos3πt

Amplitude of y1 is A1 = 10

Amplitude of y2 is A2\(\sqrt{(15)^2+(5\sqrt3)^2}\)

A2\(\sqrt{225+(8.6)^2}\)

A2\(\sqrt{225+73.96}\)

A2\(\sqrt{298.96}\)

A2 = 17.29

Then ratio of amplitude is :

\(\frac{A_1}{A_2}\) \(\frac{10}{17.29}\)

\(\frac{A_1}{A_2}\) = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt 3}\) 

Hence, 

Option (b) is correct.

Discuss the principle of diffraction of white-light through a prism.

Answer»

Dispersion of white light is defined as splitting white light into seven constituent colours when passed through the prism. When white light is passed through a glass prism it splits into its spectrum of colours (in order violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red) and this process of white light splitting into its constituent colours is termed as dispersion.

  • When white light is made to pass through a prism, a spectrum of seven colours is formed which shows that white light is a mixture of seven different colours.
  • Prism only acts as a medium for the separation of the seven colours.
  • When light falls on the glass prism, refraction takes place. Since the wavelength of different components of light is different and the frequency is constant, each component gets deviated by a different angle due to the difference in velocity in the glass medium.
  • The red colour having the maximum wavelength deviates the least and forms the upper part of the spectrum whereas violet having the least wavelength deviates the most.
  • White light dispersion occurs because, as they pass through a prism, different colours of light bend through different angles with respect to the incident ray. The red light bends the least while the violet bends most.

In the process shown below, which of the following option is correct ? A. `DeltaQ_(AB)=+ve`, `DeltaQ_(BC)=+ve`, `DeltaQ_(CA)=+ve`B. `DeltaQ_(AB)=+ve`, `DeltaQ_(BC)=-ve`, `DeltaQ_(CA)=+ve`C. `DeltaQ_(AB)=+ve`, `C_(BC)=oo`, `(dT)/(dP)=+ve` for `AB`D. `DeltaQ_(AB)=+ve`, `DeltaQ_(BC)=-ve`, `DeltaQ_(CA)=-ve`

Answer» For process `AB`
`P=(VP_(0))/(V_(0))rArr T=(PV)/(nR)=(P)/(nR)(2V)/(P_(0))`
`(dT)/(dP)=(2P)/(nR)(V_(0))/(P_(0))`
`(dT)/(dP)=(4V_(0))/(nR)` at `B`.
Since `T` goes on increasing, `DeltaW` is positive,
`DeltaQ_(AB)=+ve`
For `BC`
`P(2V_(0))=nRTrArrT=(2PV_(0))/(nR)`
`(dT)/(dP)=(2V_(0))/(nR)` at `B`
`:. (dT)/(dP)` is not defined at `B`.
In `BC` temperature goes on decreasing.
`:. DeltaQ_(BC)` is `-ve`.
For `CA`
`DeltaW= -ve`
`:. Q_(CA)=-ve`
