Question 6.10: A jet plane is travelling towards west at a speed of 1800 km/h. What is the voltage difference developed between the ends of the wing having a span of 25 m, if the Earth’s magnetic field at the location has a magnitude of 5 × 10 −4 T and the dip angle is 30°.Class 12 - Physics - Electromagnetic Induction Electromagnetic Induction Page-230

Answer» GIVEN,
Speed of the jet plane TOWARDS west = 1800 km/h
In m/s, speed of the jet plane towards west,v = 1800 × 5/18 = 500 m/s
Length of the span of the jet plane = 25 m
MAGNETIC FIELD = 5 × 10^-4 T
Dip angle =30°
The vertical component of Earth’s magnetic field can be calculated as follows: Bv= B sinδ
Bv= 5 × 10^-4 T × sin30°
⇒ Bv= 5 × 10^-4 T × 1/2
∴ Bv = 2.5 × 10^-4 Tesla
The voltage difference developed between the ends of the jet can be calculated using the formula:
E = (Bv) × l × v
e =2.5×10^-4 T× 25m × 500m/sec
e = 3.125 V
∴ the voltage difference developed between the ends of the wings is approximately 3V.

Question 6.4: A rectangular wire loop of sides 8 cm and 2 cm with a small cut is moving out of a region of uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.3 T directed normal to the loop. What is the emf developed across the cut if the velocity of the loop is 1 cm s −1 in a direction normal to the (a) longer side, (b) shorter side of the loop? For how long does the induced voltage last in each case?Class 12 - Physics - Electromagnetic Induction Electromagnetic Induction Page-230

Answer»

Length of rectangular loop, l = 8cm = 0.08m
WIDTH of rectangular loop , b = 2CM = 0.02m
area of loop, A = l × b = 0.08 × 0.02 = 1.6 × 10^-3 m²
magnetic field strength, B = 0.3T
velocity of the loop, v = 1 cm/s = 0.01 m/s

(a) emf developed in the loop is GIVEN as
e = Blv
= 0.3 × 0.08 × 0.01 = 2.4 × 10^-4V
time taken to travel along the width,t = distance travelled/velocity = b/v
= 0.02/0.01 = 2 s

hence, the INDUCED voltage is 2.4 × 10^-4V which lasts for 2s

(b) emf developed , e = Bbv
= 0.3 × 0.02 × 0.01 = 0.6 × 10^-4V
time taken to travel along length , t' = l/v
= 0.08/0.01 = 8S
hence,the induced voltage is 0.6 × 10^-4V which lasts for 8s

What is atmospheric refraction? Use this phenomenon to explain the following natural events. a) twinkling of stars. b) advanced sun-rise and delayed sun-dried. Draw diagram to illustrate your answers.

Answer»

Hi

The twinkling of a star is due to atmospheric refraction of the light rays coming from the star . The distance between a star and the earth is of many lightyears, so its light has to travel through many layers of the atmosphere in order to REACH Earth. The density of the layers of the atmosphere VARIES, - density of the layers increases towards the Earth's SURFACE causing refraction of the star's light each time it travels to a layer whose density differs. A ray of light travelling from outer SPACE bends continuously(towards the normal) after it enters the dense atmosphere of the Earth. The continuously changing atmospheric density refracts the light from stars by varying amounts and in different directions from one moment to the next. This causes the amount of starlight reaching our eyes to CONSTANTLY fluctuate,( it decreases and increases alternately) making it look as though the star is twinkling. However the star does not actually twinkle or shift from its original position.

A particle of mass 100 g moving at an initial speed u collides with another particle of same mass kept initially at rest. If the total kinetic energy becomes 0.2 J after the collision, what could be the minimum and the maximum value of u.

Answer»

THANKS for asking the QUESTION!


ANSWER::


Final Kinetic Energy = 0.2 J

Initial Kinetic Energy = (1/2) mV₁² + 0 = (1/2) x 0.1 u² = 0.05 u²


mv₁ = mv₂ = mu


v₁ = Final velocity of 1st block

v₂ = Final velocity of 2nd block


v₁ + v₂ = u              Equation - 1


(v₁ - v₂) + L(a₁ - u₂) = 0

La = v₂ - v₁               Equation - 2


u₂ = 0 u₁ = u


Adding Equation - 1 and Equation - 2


2v₂ = (1 + L) u

v₂ = (u/2)(1 + L)


v₁ = u - u/2 - uL/2

v₁ = u(1 - L)/2


Given :-


(1/2) mv₁² + (1/2) mv₂² = 0.2

v₁² + v₂² = 4


[u²(1 - L)²] / 4 + [u²(1 + L)²] / 4 = 4

[u²(1 + L)²] / 2

u² = 8/(1 + L²)


For maximum value of u , denominator should be minimum,

L = 0

u² = 8

u = 2√2 m/s


For minimum value of u , denominator should be maximum,

L = 1

u² = 4

u = 2 m/s


Hope it helps!

A ball of mass 0.50 kg moving at a speed of 5.0 m/s collides with another ball of mass 1.0 kg. After the collision the balls stick together and remain motionless. What was the velocity of the 1.0 kg block before the collision?

Answer»

Thanks for asking the question!


ANSWER::


Mass of BALL , m₁ = 0.5 kg

VELOCITY of ball , v₁ = 5 m/s


Mass of ANOTHER ball , m₂ = 1 kg

Let velocity of another ball = v₂ m/s


Using law of CONSERVATION of MOMENTUM ,


0.5 x 5 + 1 x v₂ = 0


v₂ = - 2.5 m/s


Therefore , the velocity of another ball is 2.5 m/s opposite to the direction of motion of first ball.


Hope it helps!

When a force of 6.0 N is exerted at 30° to a wrench at a distance of 8 cm from the nut, it is just able to loosen the nut. What force F would be sufficient to loosen it if it acts perpendicularly to the wrench at 16 cm from the nut.?

Answer»

Given in the question :- Refer to the attachment


Force of 6N is ACTING on a BODY with the ANGLE 30°, Now we have to resolve the force of 6 N along the wrench and perpendicular to it.

P = 6. cos 30^


Now, Total TORQUE working on point A = 0

Hence The force component which is perpendicular to the wrench

then

P' =6 sin30^0

P' =3.0 N


The torque ( nut ) = 3.0 × 8/100

=0.24 N-m----(i)


The torque of force F (nut)

= F× 16/100 N-m------(II)


Equating the two we get,


F * 16/100 =0.24

F = 24/16

F =3/2

F=1.5 N



Hope it Helps :-)

A gun weighing 10kg fires a bullet of 30 g with a velocity of 330m/s with what velocity does the gun recoil what is the combined momentum of the gun and bullet before firing and after firing

Answer»

MOMENTUM of the bullet equals the momentum of the gun.

Momentum equals to :

MASS × Velocity

We substitute into the formulae and get :

0.03 × 330 = 10 × V

9.9 = 10V

V = 0.99 m/s

Momentum before firing is zero since both the gun and the bullet are at rest and their velocities are zero.

Momentum after firing is equal to momentum of the gun plus the momentum of the bullet which are equal and opposite.

This is THEREFORE :

330 × 0.03 × 2 = 19.8Kgm/s

22.

2 coherent sources whose intensity ratio is 81:1 produce interference fringe. calculate ratio of intensity of maxima and minima in fringe system

Answer»

ANSWER: The RATIO of the INTENSITY of MAXIMA and minima is 25:16.

Explanation:

Given that,

Ratio of intensity \dfrac{I_{1}}{I_{2}} = \dfrac{81}{1}

We know that,

The intensity of maxima is

I_{max} = (\sqrt{I_{1}}+\sqrt{I_{2}})^{2}...(I)

Put the value of I_{1} and I_{2} in equation (I)

I_{max} = 100

The intensity of minima

I_{min} = (\sqrt{I_{1}}-\sqrt{I_{2}})^{2}....(II)

Put the value of I_{1} and I_{2} in equation (II)

I_{min} = 64

Now, the ratio of the intensity of maxima and minima

\dfrac{I_{max}}{I_{min}}= \dfrac{100}{64}

\dfrac{I_{max}}{I_{min}}= \dfrac{25}{16}

Hence, the ratio of the intensity of maxima and minima is 25:16.

A train runs at a speed of 42 m/s and takes 35 seconds to pass a tunnel. after travelling some distance, it takes 15 seconds to pass a pole. what is the length of the tunnel?

Answer»

So,

While PASSING the tunnel it takes 35sec


Displacement = Velocity × Time


Therefore,

L(TRAIN) + L(Tunnel)

= 42 × 35 = 1470m


Now,

It takes 15 sec to pass a pole

So,

L(Train)

= 15×42= 630m


L(Tunnel) = 1470 - 630 = 840


So,

The LENGTH of tunnel is 840m

Question 5.19: A telephone cable at a place has four long straight horizontal wires carrying a current of 1.0 A in the same direction east to west. The earth’s magnetic field at the place is 0.39 G, and the angle of dip is 35º. The magnetic declination is nearly zero. What are the resultant magnetic fields at points 4.0 cm below the cable?Class 12 - Physics - Magnetism And Matter Magnetism And Matter Page-202

Answer»

Let us first decide the directions which can best represent the situation.
angle of dip , \delta=35°
Earth's MAGNETIC FIELD, B = 0.39G
horizontal component of earth's magnetic field,B_H=Bcos\delta=0.39cos35°
= 0.32G

similarly, vertical component of earth's magnetic field, B_v=Bsin\delta
=0.39sin35° = 0.22G

telephone cable carry a total current of 4A in direction east to west . we want RESULTANT magnetic field 4cm below as shown in figure.
we have to find magnetic field DUE to wire ,
B_{wire}=\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\frac{2I}{r}\\\\=10^{-7}\times\frac{2\times4}{4\times10^{-2}}\\\\=2\times10^{-5}T=0.2G

now, see figure,
net magnetic field,B_{net}=\sqrt{(B_H-B_{wire})^2+B_v^2}\\\\=\sqrt{(0.32-0.2)^2+0.22^2}=0.25G

Question 5.12: A short bar magnet has a magnetic moment of 0.48 J T −1 . Give the direction and magnitude of the magnetic field produced by the magnet at a distance of 10 cm from the centre of the magnet on (a) the axis, (b) the equatorial lines (normal bisector) of the magnet.Class 12 - Physics - Magnetism And Matter Magnetism And Matter Page-201

Answer»

Given, Magnetic moment, M = 0.48J/T
distance of observation POINT from centre of the magnet, R = 10cm = 0.1m

(a) we know, magnetic field on AXIAL LINE due to magnetic dipole is given by ,
\bf{B_{axial}=\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\frac{2M}{r^3}}

= (10^-7 × 2 × 0.48)/(0.1)³ = 9.6 × 10^-5T ALONG S-N direction.

(b) magnetic field on equatorial line due to magnetic dipole is given by ,
\bf{B_{equatorial}=\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\frac{M}{r^3}}

= (10^-7 × 0.48)/(0.1)³ = 4.8 × 10^-5 T along N-S direction.

A ball of mass m is dropped onto a floor from a certain height. The collision is perfectly elastic and the ball rebounds to the same height and again falls. Find the average force exerted by the ball on the floor during a long time interval.

Answer»

Thanks for ASKING the question!


ANSWER::


LET height be 'h' from where the BALL of mass m is DROPPED ONTO a floor.


Before collision => v₁ = √(2gh) and then v₁ = 0


After collision => v₂ = - √(2gh) and then v₂ = 0


Rate of change of velocity , F = [m x 2√(2gh)] / t


Now , v = √(2gh) , s = h , v = 0


v = u+at


√(2gh) = gt


t = √(2h/g)


Total time = 2√(2h/g)


F = [m x 2√(2gh)] / [2√(2h/g) ] = mg
