(a) With the help of a diagram, explainthe principle and working of a moving coil galvanometer. (b) What is the imporance of a magnetic field and how is it produced ? (c) Why is it that while using a moving coil galvanometer as a voltmeter as a voltmeter a high resistance in series is required whereas in an ammeter a shunt is used ? |
|
Answer» Solution :(a) A labelled diagram of a pivoted type moving coil galanometer has been shown in fig. Principle , If a current coil is freely pivoted in a uniform magnetic field, hence on passing current I thorugh it a deflecting torque acts on the coil which is given by `tau = NAIB` where N = total number of turns in the coil, A = area of coil , B = magnetic field. The spring `S_p` attached to the coil provides the counter torque and in equilibrium state balances the deflecting torque. If `phi` be the steady angular deflection then counter torque is `kphi`, where K = torsional constant of the spring. In equilibrium state `NAIB = k phi implies I = k/(NAB) cdot phi` Thus , deflection is directly proportional to the current. (b) In a radial magnetic field the plane of the rotating coil always lies in the direction of magnetic field. Thus, torque on the coil remains constant `(tau = NAIB)` and does not change with angular deflection angle `phi`. Radial magnetic field is produced by making the POLE piece of HORSE shoe magnet concave and by introducing a cylindrical soft iron core in the middle of GALVANOMETER coil. (c) A voltmeter mus draw a very small current so as to given correct voltage measurement. Therefore, a high resistance is connected in series with the galvanometer. An ammeter should have negligible resistance so that its presence does not alter the circuit current. Therefore, a small shunt resistance is connected in parallel to the galvanometer so as to reduce its resistance.

The trajectory of a body with two simultaneous, mutually perpendicular oscillations is determined by x=asin(pomegat)""(1) y=bsin(qomegat+phi)""(2) where x and y are the projections of the body displacement on X and Y axes For simplicity, assume pomega=qomega=omega_(0). Then, the equation of trajectory will be y^(2)/b^(2)+x^(2)/a^(2)-(2xy)/(ab)cosphi=sin^(2)phi""(3) which is a general equation of ellipse. But if qomeganepomegaandpneq, then the graph of trajectory on the X-Y plane is either a closed curve, whose loop number is defined by the ratio n = p/q, or an open curve. Note that at the point where the curve reverses along the same trajectory, the velocities along the X-axis and Y-axis become equal to zero simultaneously. The body moving along the curve stops exactly at this moment at a certain point, say P, and then starts moving back, The closed curve for the motion of the body with the above two oscillations (1) and (2) with certain values of p, q and phi is given in the adjacent figure. The value of p/q is |

Obtain an expression for deviation suffered by a ray of light when refracted through a small angle prism. |
Answer» Solution : We know that for refraction through a prism `angleA =angler_(1) + angler_(2)` and `angleA + angledelta = anglei + ANGLEE` For a small angled prism `angleA` is small and hence `r_(1)` and `r_(2)` will be evan SMALLER. As `n=(sin i)/(sin r_(1))` and `n= (sin e)/(sin r_(2))` and `angler_(1)` and `angler_(2)` are Hence, the above relations MAY be rewritten as : `i/r_(1) = n` and `e/r_(2)=n` `i/r_(1) =n` and `e/r_(2)=n` `rArr anglei = nangler_(1)` and `anglee = nangler_(2)` `rArr angledelta = (n-1)angleA` or `delta =(n-1) A` |

When a mass m is attached to the spring of force constant k, then the spring stretches by l. If the mass oscillates with amplitude l, what will be the maximum potential energy stored in the spring ? |
|
Answer» `(kl)/(2)` `:." MG"="kl"` and energy stored in spring `=(1)/(2)kl^(2)=(1)/(2)("mg")/(l)l^(2)=(1)/(2)"mgl"`. When the spring oscillates at maximum displacement then additional POTENTIAL energy stored `=(1)/(2)kl^(2)=(1)/(2)"mgl"`. Thus TOTAL potential energy `=(1)/(2)"mgl"+(1)/(2)"mgl"="mgl"`. Correct choice is (d). |

Answer» Solution :Circuit diagram for the given data is (a) Effecitive resistance when `R_(1), R_(2)` and `R_(3)` are connected in parallel is given by `(1)/(R_(P)) = (1)/(R_(1)) + (1)/(R_(2)) + (1)/(R_(3)) implies (1)/(R_(P)) = (1)/(4) + (1)/(6) + (1)/(12)` `implies (1)/(R_(P)) = (3 + 2 + 1)/(12) = (6)/(12) = (1)/(2)` `:. R_(P) = 2 Omega` Total resistance in the circuit `R = R_(P) + R_(4) = 2 + 2 = 4 Omega` `:.` Current in main circuit `I = (V)/(R) = (6)/(4) = 1.5 A` (b) Current flowing through `R_(1), I_(1) = (ir_(P))/(R_(1)) = (1.5 xx 2)/(4) = 0.74 A` current flowing through `R_(2), I_(2) = (IR_(P))/(R_(2)) = (1.5 xx 2)/(6) = 0.5 A` Current flowing through `R_(3), I_(3) = (IR_(P))/(R_(3)) = (1.5 xx 2)/(12) = 0.25 A` (c ) P.D ACROSS `2 Omega` resistor (i.e., `R_(4)`), `V_(4) = IR_(4) = 1.5 xx 2= 3` volt.

|
Answer» Solution :Here `L = 0.50 H, R = 100` ohm, `E_(rms) = 240 V, v = 50 Hz` Step I : We know `E_(0) = sqrt(2) E_(rms) = 1.414 XX 240 = 339.4 V` Impedance of LR circuit is `Z_(L) = sqrt(R^(2) + omega^(2)L^(2)) = sqrt(R^(2) + 4PI^(2)v^(2)L^(2))` `= sqrt((100)^(2) + 4 xx (3.14)^(2) xx (50)^(2) xx (0.50)^(2)) = 186.1` ohm Peak current, `I_(0) = (E_(0))/(Z_(L)) = (339.4)/(186.1) = 1.82 A` In LR circuit the phase difference between current and voltage `phi` is given by `tan phi = (0.50 xx2 xx 3.14 xx 50)/(100) = 1.57` `phi = tan^(-1)(1.57) = 57^(@)30. = 57.5^(@)` `= (57.5 xx pi)/(180) = 0.3194 pi` radians Here `E = E_(0) sin omega t , E_(0) = E_(rms) sqrt(2)` `therefore` Time LAG between `E_(0)` and `I_(0)` is given by `t = (phi)/(omega) = (phi)/(2pi v) = (0.3194 pi)/(2pi xx 50)` `= 0.003194 s = 3.194 xx 10^(-3)s`. |
