Take two conical flasks. Paint the outer surface of one with black paint and the other, with white paint. Fill both of them with water and expose them to direct sunlight for the same period of time. Which one gets heated first? What may be the reason? |
|
Answer» The conical flask which is painted black seems to be more hot when kept under the sun for an hour because the black body absorbs more heat and do not let it out from it. It is the property of black body to absorb heat and there is no chance of heat to escape. |

Assertion (A) : In optical fibre, the diameter of the core is kept small Reason (R) : The small diameter of the core ensures that the fibre should have inside it an angle greater than critical angle needed for total internal reflection(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A (b) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A (c) A is true but R is false (d) A is false and R is also false |
|
Answer» Option : (A) Both, the Assertion and Reason are two and later explains the former correctly. Total internal reflection of light takes place if angle of incidence is greater than critical angle. So, small diameter ensures that incident light falls at an angle greater than critical angle. |

A solenoid with N loops of wire tightly wrapped around an iron-core is carrying an electric current I. If the current through this solenoid is reduced to half, then what change would you expect in inductance L of the solenoid. |
|
Answer» Given: I' = \(\frac{I}{2}\) Inductance, L = μo . \(\frac{N^2}{e}\).A l : length of solenoid N: number of lines A: area of cross- section of solenoid Since, 'I' is independent of current, so there is no change in the inductance of the solenoid. Remains same. |

How do fossil fuels cause air pollution? |
|
Answer» The fossil fuels like coal and petroleum contain small amounts of nitrogen and sulphur. When fossil fuels are burnt, it produces oxides of nitrogen and sulphur. These gases cause inhalation problems and in presence of rain forms acid rain. Burning of fossil fuels also increases the amount of suspended particles in air that reduce the visibility. |

The quantity which does not vary periodically for a particle performing SHM isA. accelerationB. total energyC. displacementD. velocity |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - B For a particle executing simple harmonic motion (SHM), Total energy = kinetic energy + potential energy `=E_(K)+E_(P)=1/2mv^(2)+1/2kx^(2)` `=1/m(A^(2)-x^(2))+1/2momega^(2)A^(2)` `(becausev=sqrt(A^(2)-x^(2))` where, A is the amplitude of the particle`)` `=1/2KA^(2)` It is independent oft, xis remains constant i.e., it does not vary periodically. However, the displacement of a particle executing SHM along x-axis is given by `x=Asin(omegat+phi)` (where, A= amplitude, `omega` = angular velocity t = time, `phi` = initial phase of the particle) i.e., displacement varies periodically with time t. Velocity of particles executing SHM, `v=(dx)/(dt)=omegasqrt(A^(2)-x^(2))` which varies with x. Acceleration of the particle, `a=(dv)/(dt)=-omega^(2)x` Which also varies with x. |
