What is the difference between intensity and loudness ? |
|
Answer» LOUDNESS: *The sensation produced in the ears which enables US to distinguish between a faint SOUND and a loud sound is called loudness. *Loudness is measured indecibel.Loudness depends on the senstivity of ears. INTENSITY: *The average ENERGY transported by a sound wave per second per unit AREA is called intensity. *Intensity is measured in unit of watts per square metre.Intensity does not depends on the senstivity of ears. |

Explain principle and working of moving coil galvanometer with diagram ? |
|
Answer» First you need to know what is moving coil - galvanometer ???Galvanometer is operated by the force exerted by an electric current flowing in a movable coil suspended in a magnetic field.................. !!!!WORKING of moving coil of galvanometer :- Principle: -Its working is based on the fact that when a current carrying coil is placed in a magnetic field, it EXPERIENCES a torque.Principle:Its working is based on the fact that when a current carrying coil is placed in a magnetic field, it experiences a torque.Working:Suppose the coil PQRS is suspended freely in the magnetic field.Letl = Length PQ or RS of the COILB = Breadth QR or SP of the coiln = Number of turns in the coilArea of each turn of the coil, A = l × bLet B = Strength of the magnetic field in which coil is suspendedI = Current passing through the coil in the direction PQRSLet, at any instant, α be the angle which the normal drawn on the plane of the coil makes with the direction of magnetic field.The rectangular coil carrying current when placed in the magnetic field experiences a torque whose magnitude is given by,τ = nIBA sinαDue to deflecting torque, the coil rotates and SUSPENSION wire gets twisted. A restoring torque is set up in the suspension wire.Let θbe the twist produced in the phosphor bronze strip due to rotation of the coil and K be the restoring torque per unit twist of the phosphor bronze strip. Then,Total restoring torque produced = kθIn equilibrium POSITION of the coil,Deflecting torque = Restoring torque∴ NIBA = kθ. So this is the working moeel of galvanometer |

What is a transistor? How does it work? Gi |
|
Answer» The design of a transistor allows it to function as an amplifier or a switch. This is ACCOMPLISHED by using a small amount of electricity to control a gate on a much larger SUPPLY of electricity, much like turning a VALVE to control a supply of water. Transistors are composed of three parts – a base, a collector, and an emitter. The base is the gate controller device for the larger ELECTRICAL supply. The collector is the larger electrical supply, and the emitter is the outlet for that supply. By sending varying levels of CURRENT from the base, the amount of current flowing through the gate from the collector may be regulated. In this way, a very small amount of current may be used to control a large amount of current, as in an amplifier. The same process is used to create the binary code for the digital processors but in this case a voltage threshold of five volts is needed to open the collector gate. In this way, the transistor is being used as a switch with a binary function: five volts – ON, less than five volts – OFF. Semi-conductive materials are what make the transistor possible. Most people are familiar with electrically conductive and non-conductive materials. Metals are typically thought of as being conductive. Materials such as wood, plastics, glass and ceramics are non-conductive, or insulators. In the late 1940’s a team of scientists working at Bell Labs in New Jersey, discovered how to take certain types of crystals and use them as electronic control devices by exploiting their semi-conductive properties.Most non-metallic crystalline structures would typically be considered insulators. But by forcing crystals of germanium or silicon to grow with impurities such as boron or phosphorus, the crystals gain entirely different electrical conductive properties. By sandwiching this material between two conductive plates (the emitter and the collector), a transistor is made. By applying current to the semi-conductive material (base), electrons gather until an effectual conduit is formed allowing electricity to pass The scientists that were responsible for the invention of the transistor were John Bardeen, Walter Brattain, and William Shockley. Their Patent was called: “Three Electrode Circuit Element Utilizing Semiconductive Materials.” |

Choose the correct one- A block of ice floats in water, such that the temperature of ice as well as water is 0 degree C. In this situation, the wt. of ice =(a)Wt. of water displaced by the immersed part of ice(b) Volume of water displaced by the immersed part of ice(c)Wt. of water displ. by the complete block of ice(d) NonePlease explain as well |
|
Answer» Weight of ice equals Wt. of water displaced by the IMMERSED part of ice This is from the statement of archimedes principle - The upward FORCE experienced by a body in a liquid is equal to the weight of liquid displaced by the immersed part of the body. When the ice block FLOATS in water i.e. the FORCES on the bock of ice are balanced, upward force (also called BUOYANT force) is equal to the weight of the ice (from its free body diagram). |

Explain why an iron needle sink and a ship made of iron not sink |
| Answer» An object will float if it can DISPLACE the amount of WATER that would EQUAL its weight. The amount of water a needle displaces is very little and thus is not greater than the weight of the needle. The ship, because it is not solid displaces enough water to equal it's weight, so it FLOATS. | |

How does DC generator works? |
|
Answer» A DC GENERATOR PRODUCES DIRECT power. These generators produce electrical power, based on same fundamental principle of Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction. According to these law, when an CONDUCTOR moves in a magnetic field it cuts magnetic lines force, due to which an emf is induced in the conductor. The magnitude of this induced emf depends upon the rate of change of flux linkage with the conductor. This emf will cause an current to flow if the conductor circuit is closed. |
