Answer»

Rectifiers
Oscillators
Amplifiers
Transformers

Solution :Microwaves transmission on the surface of earth is made possible by erecting a number of microwave towers with antennas at suitable distances. The antennas installed between the TRANSMITTING and receiving antenna are CALLED the repeaters. Each repeater RECEIVES the TRANSMITTED signal amplifier and then relays to the NEXT repeater.

What is corona discharge?

Answer»

Solution :The ELECTRIC field near the edge is very high and it IONIZES the SURROUNDING air. The positive ions are REPELLED at the sharp edge and negative ions are attracted towards the SHARPER edge.
This reduces the total charge of the conductor near the sharp edge. This is called action at points or corona discharge

Consider the D - T reaction (deuterium - tritium fusion) ._(1)^(2)H+ ._(1)^(3)H to ._(2)^(4)He + n Consider the radius of both deuterium and tritium to be approximately 2.0 fm. What is the kinetic energy needed to overcone the Coluomn repulsion between the two nuclei ? To what temperature must the gas heated to initiate the reaction ?

Answer»

Solution :HINT : KINETIC energy required for one fusion event = average thermal kinetic energy available with the interacting particles = 2(3kt/2) , k = Boltzman's CONSTANT, T = absolute temperature.
Repulsive potential energy of two nuclei when they almost touch each other is
`= (q^(2))/(4pi epsilon_(0)(2r))=(9xx10^(9)(1.6xx10^(-19))^(7))/(2xx2xx10^(-15))` Joule
`= 5.76xx10^(-14)` Joule
Classically KE atleast equal to this amount is required to overcome Coulomb repulsion. Using the relation
`K.E. = 2xx(3)/(2)KT`
`T=(K.E)/(3k)=(5.76xx10^(_14))/(3xx1.38xx10^(-23))=1.39xx10^(9)K`
In actual PRACTISE the temperature required for trigerring the reaction is somewhat less.

A conducting bar of mass m length lis pushed with a speed V_(0) on a smooth horizontal conducting rail containing an inductance L. If the applied magnetic field has inward field induction B find the maximum distance covered by the bar before it stops. Assume that the induced current i=0 when the bar is at the position of the inductor . (##FIITJEE_PHY_MB_05_C02_SLV_018_Q01.png" width="80%">

Answer»

Solution :If the bar slides a distance dx the flux LINKAGE `dphi = 8l ` dx
`implies `The induced emf = - `(dphi)/(DT ) =- (Bldx )/(dt)`
Since the induced emf across the inductor = `(Ldi)/(dt)`
`implies -(Bldx)/(dt)= -(Ldi)/(dt)`
`implies L int_(0) di = B l int_(0)^(x) dx `
`implies Li =B l x implies i = (Bl)/(L)x`
This induced current interacts with the applied magnetic field of induction and imparting a restoring ( magnetic ) force F = `-ILB`.
`implies F =- ((Bl)/(L) x)l`B
`implies (mvdv)/(dx) =-(B^(2)l^(2))/(L) x`
`implies int_(V0)^(0) vdv = -(B^(2)l^(2))/(mL) int_(0)^(s) xdx , -(v_(0)^(2))/(2) = (B^(2)l^(2)s^(2))/(2mL)`
`implies S = sqrt((my_(0)^(2)L)/(B^(2)l^(2)))=(sqrt(mL)).(v_(0))/(Bl)`
42509.

The surface charge density of a thin charged disc of radius R is sigma. The value of the electric field at the centre of the disc (sigma)/(2 in_(0)). With respect to the field at the centre, the electric field along the axis at a distance R from the centre of the disc is

Answer»

SOLUTION :The electric FIELD strength on the axis at a distance ..x.. from its centre of uniform charged circular disc is
`E= (sigma)/(2 epsi_(0)) (1- (x)/((x^(2) + R^(2))^(1//2)))`. At centre, `E_(0) = (sigma)/(2 epsi_(0))`
At distance `x= R, E = (sigma)/(2 epsi_(0)) (1-(x)/((x^(2) + R^(2))^(1//2)))= (sigma)/(2 epsi_(0)) (1- (R )/((R^(2) + R^(2))^(1//2)))`
`=(sigma)/(2 epsi_(0)) (1- (1)/(sqrt2)) = (sigma)/(2 epsi_(0)) (0.37) = 0.37 E_(0)`
42510.

What is meant by equipotential surface? Show that the amount of work done in moving a test positive charge along the equipotential surface is zero.

Answer»

SOLUTION :An EQUIPOTENTIAL surface is that at every point of which the electric POTENTIAL is same i.e., there is no difference of potential between any two points on it.
Since potential difference `dV=(dW)/(q)`
In an equipotential surface, `dV=0`
`THEREFORE (dW)/(q)=0`
or `dW=0`
i.e. no work is done in moving a test charge ALONG the equipotential surface.

(i) Derive the expression for the specificfor the electricpotentialdue to an electricdipole at a point on its axial line. (ii) Depietthe equivpotentialsurfacesdue to an electricdipole.

Answer»

Solution :(i) Expression : Potentialat P due to CHARGE `+Q` and -q.
`V_(-q) = (-q)/(4piin_(0)r_(1))` and`V_(+q) = q/(4piin_(0) r_(2))`
Potentialat P due to DIPOLE `V = V_(-q) + V_(+q) = (q)/(4piin_(0)) [1/(r_(2))- 1/(r_(1))] "…….." (i)`

From the figure, `r_(1)^(2) = r^(2) +d + 2ar cos THETA`
and, `r_(2)^(2) = r^(2) + a^(2) + 2ar cos(180^(@) - theta) = r^(2) + a^(2) - 2ar cos theta`
`rArr r_(1)^(2)= r^(2)[1+(a^(2))/(r^(2)) +(2a)/(r ) costheta] = r^(2)[1+(2a)/(r) costheta]` as `r gt gt a, (a^(2))/(r^(2)) = 0`
`rArr r_(1) = r[1+(2a)/(r) cos theta]^(1/2)`
So `1/(r_(1)) = 1/r[1+(2a)/(r) cos theta]^(-1/2)`
and `1/(r_(2)) = = 1/r [1-(2a)/(r) cos theta]^(-1//2)`
Using it for `(i)`
`V = (q)/(4piin_(0)r)[1+a/r cos theta - (1- a/r cos theta)]`
[Applying Binomial Theorem and neglectinghighest power of `(2a)/(r)` ]
Hence, `V = (q)/(4piin_(0)r) [1+q/r cos theta - 1+ a/r cos theta]`
`= (qxx2a cos theta)/(4piin_(0)r^(2))`
`rArrV = (p cos theta)/(4piin_(0)r^(2)) , {p = q xx 2a = " dipole moment"}`
Vaxial `= (pcos theta)/(4piin_(0)r^(2))` ( `:' theta = 0^(@)` on axialline) `= (p)/(4pi in_(0)r^(2))`
(ii) `V_("net") = V_(A) + V_(B)= (-kq)/((r^(2)+a^(2))) + (-kq)/((r^(2)+a^(2)) = 0`

How many alpha and beta- particles are emitted when uranium nucleus (""_(92)^(238)U) decay to ""_(82)^(214)Pb ?

Answer»

SOLUTION :Let n be the number of `alpha` - particles and m be the number of `beta` - particles emitted.
`""_(92)U^(238)RARR ""_(82)Pb^(214)+n_(2)He^(4)+m""_(-1)e^(0).`
As mass is conserved , 238 = 214 + 4N + m (0)
`= 214 + 4n implies 4n = 24 , n = 6`
As charge is conserved , 92 = 82 + 2n + m (-1)
10 = 2 (6) - m`(:.n = 6) implies m = 2 `
`:. 6 alpha` particles and `2 beta` - particles are emitted

Determine the potential difference between the points C and D in figure.

Answer»

Solution :Since the capacitors are in series, charge on each capacitor is the same. At steady state, the charge on the capacitor is due to terminal patential differnee of cell `EPSILON`.
When steady state is reached, no current FLOWS throught the capaciotrs. The current in the circuit is,
`I = 12/( 1 + 3 +6)=1.2A`
Terminal pot. diff. across A and B,
`V = epsilon - I r= 12 -1.2 xx 1 = 10.8V`
Capacitors are in series, their effective capacitance `C= ( 1 xx 2)/(1 +2) = 2/3 mu F`
`:.` Charge on each capacitor,
`q = 2/3 xx 10^(-6) xx 10.8 = 7.2 xx 10^(-6)C`.
Pot. diff. between A and C
`V_(A) - V_(C) = q/C_(2) = (7.2 xx 10^(-6))/(2 xx 10^(-6)) = 3.6 V`
po. diff. between A and D `= V_(A) - V_(D) = IR_(2)`
` = 6 xx 1.2 = 7.2 V`
Pot. diff. between C and D `= V_(C) - V_(D)`
` (V_(A) - V_(D)) - (V_(A) - V_(C))= 7.2 -3.6 = 3.6V`

Obtain an expression for equivalent resistance of two resistors connected in parallel.

Answer»

Solution :
Consider two cells of emf `EPSI _(1) and epsi_(2)` and internal resistances `r _(1) and r _(2)` connected in PARALLEL as shoen in fig(a). Let ` I _(1) and I _(2)` be the curents through the cells. At `B_(1)` currents `I _(1) and I _(2)` flow in wheres the current I flows out.
`therefore I = I_(1) + I_(2)""...(1)`
Let `V_(1) and V _(2)` be the potentials at `B _(1) and B _(2)` respectively.
Pd between first cell, `V - V _(1) = V _(2) = epsi _(1) - I _(1) r _(1)`
`implies I _(1) = (epsi _(1) -V)/(r _(1)) ""..(2)`
Pd between second cell, `V = V_(1) -V_(2) =epsi _(2) - I _(1) r _(2)`
`implies I _(2) = (epsi _(2) -V)/(r _(2))""...(3)`
`therefore` Eq1uation (1) becomes
`I = ( epsi _(1)- V )/( r _(1)) + (epsi _(2 ) - V)/( r _(2))`
`1= (epsi _(1))/( r _(1)) - (V)/( r _(1))+ (epsi _(2))/( r _(2))- ( V )/( r _(2))`
`I = ((epsi _(1))/( r _(1)) + ( epsi _(2))/( r _(2))) - ((V)/(r _(1)) + ( V)/( r _(2)))`
` I = ((epsi _(1))/( r _(1)) + (epsi _(2 ))/( r _(2 ))) - V ((1)/( r _(1)) + (1)/( r _(2)))`
`I = ((epsi_(1) r _(2) + epsi _(2) r _(1 ))/( r _(1 ) r _(2)))- V (( r _(1) + r _(2))/( r _(1) r _(2)))`
`V ((r _(1) + r _(2))/( r _(1 ) r _(2))) = (( epsi_(1) r _(2) + epsi_(2) r _(1))/( r _(1) r _(2)))-1`
`V = ((e _(1)r _(1) + epsi _(2 ) r _(1))/( r _(1) r _(2)))((r _(1) r _(2))/( r _(1) + r _(2))) - I ((r_(1) r _(2))/( r _(1) + r _(2)))`
`V = (( epsi _(1) epsi _(2) + epsi _(2)r _(1))/( r _(1) r _(2))) -I ((r _(1) r _(2))/( r _(1)+ r _(2)))`
Let the parallel COMBINATION of two cells be replaced by a single cell between `B _(1) and B _(2).` Let `epsi _(eq)` be its emf and `r _(eq)` be its internal resistance. Then
`V = epsi _(eq) - I r _(eq) ""...(5)`
From equation (4) and (5), we have
`epsi _(eq)= ( epsi _(1) r _(2) + epsi _(2) r _(1))/( r _(1) + r _(2)) ""...(6)`
`r _(eq) = (r _(1) r _(2))/( r _(1) + r _(2))""...(7)`
Equation (6) and (7) can also be WRITTEN as
`(epsi _(eq))/( r _(eq))=(epsi _(1))/(r _(1)) + ( epsi _(2))/( r _(2))""...(8)`
`(1)/( r _(eq)) = (1)/( r _(1)) + (1)/( r _(2))""...(9)`

Draw a schematic diagram of a step up transformer. Explain its working principle. Deduce the expression for the secondary to the primary voltage in terms of the number of turns in the two coils. In an ideal transformer, how is this ratio related to the currents in the two coils ? How is the transformer used in large scale transmission and distribution of electrical energy over long distances ?

Answer»

Solution :We want to transmit electrical power over large distances at highest possible voltage so that transmission loss is LEAST possible. For this purpose the power output of electrical generators is fed to suitable step up transformers which raise the voltage to DESIRED limit (generally 400 kV). When at the consuming CENTRES the electrical power is to be distributed, its voltage is again reduced by the USE of suitable step down transformers.

In Young's double-slit experiment using monochromatic light of wavelength lambda, the intensity of light at a point on the screen where path difference is lambda, is K units. What is the intensity of light at a point where path difference is lambda//3?

Answer»

Solution :In YDSE (Young.s Double Slit Experiment), intensity of light at a given point on the screen is,
`I=I_(0)COS^(2){(k(r_(2)-r_(1)))/(2)}`
For first point, `r_(2)-r_(1)=LAMDA` I=K and so,
`K=I_(0)cos^(2){(1)/(2)xx(2pi)/(lamda)xxlamda}`
`:.K=I_(0)(1)`
`:.I_(0)=K""....(1)`
For second point, `(r_(2)-r_(1))=(lamda)/(3)` and so,
`I.=I_(0)cos^(2){(k(r_(2)-r_(1)))/(2)}`
`:.I.=Kcos^(2){(1)/(2)xx(2pi)/(lamda)xx(lamda)/(3)}`
`:.I.=Kcos^(2)((pi)/(3))=K((1)/(2))^(2)`
`:.I.=(K)/(4)`
