32.	I am not able to do phyiscs questions related to kinematics and other chapters.I get confused up a lot.
Answer» I must tell you a secret about kinematics in physics, that it is the easiest chapter of physics. The thing of concern is that you have manipulated your mind that you can't solve its question. First of all you have to revise the notes of this chapter either from the book or from notes provided by your teacher. But this time you have to focus more on the graphical solution of examples. After revising it I suggest you that you must start with H.C verma's (concept of physics) book. Start solving it as its question starts with basics. It will be much better if you should solve all the examples without seeing its lengthy solution. Prefer graphical solution over the general solution. Separate each topic's question as the projectile, circular motion and solve them separately. The same law is with all the chapters. Ask any doubt from us. We are here to solve them.

33.	Write a note on kelvin scale of temperature.
Answer» From Charles law V = V₀(1 + αt) …. (1) If t = -273°C, then(1) ⇒ V = V₀(1 - 273/273), V = 0 Volume of gas becomes zero at -273°C theoretically which is shown in the above fig. But practically all known gases become liquids before attaining this temperature (-273°C). From Charles's law, this is the lowest possible temperature. Lord Kelvin made a scale by taking -273°C as lowest temperature. It is called absolute scale of temperature. The lowest temperature is called absolute zero (0K = -273°C). The temperature on the Kelvin scale is called absolute temperate. The width of each degree on the Kelvin scale is equal to the width of each degree on Celsius scale. The relation between Celsius scale temperature (t) & Kelvin scale temperature (T) is given by T = (t + 273) K

Write a note on kelvin scale of temperature.

Answer»

From Charles law V = V₀(1 + αt) …. (1)

If t = -273°C, then(1) ⇒ V = V₀(1 - 273/273), V = 0

Volume of gas becomes zero at -273°C theoretically which is shown in the above fig. But practically all known gases become liquids before attaining this temperature (-273°C). From Charles's law, this is the lowest possible temperature.

Lord Kelvin made a scale by taking -273°C as lowest temperature. It is called absolute scale of temperature. The lowest temperature is called absolute zero (0K = -273°C). The temperature on the Kelvin scale is called absolute temperate. The width of each degree on the Kelvin scale is equal to the width of each degree on Celsius scale.

40.	Answer the following questions: (a) When a low flying aircraft passes overhead, we sometimes notice a slight shaking of the picture on our TV screen. Suggest a possible explanation.(b) As you have learnt in the text, the principle of linear superposition of wave displacement is basic to understanding intensity distributions in diffraction and interference patterns. What is the justification of this principle?
Answer» (a) Weak radar signals sent by a low flying aircraft can interfere with the TV signals received by the antenna. As a result, the TV signals may get distorted. Hence, when a low flying aircraft passes overhead, we sometimes notice a slight shaking of the picture on our TV screen. (b) The principle of linear superposition of wave displacement is essential to our understanding of intensity distributions and interference patterns. This is because superposition follows from the linear character of a differential equation that governs wave motion. If y₁ and y₂ are the solutions of the second order wave equation, then any linear combination of y₁ and y₂ will also be the solution of the wave equation.

45.	At at what distance from the centre of the earth, the value of acceleration due to gravity g will be half that on the surface (R =radius of earth)
Answer» At height h, g' = g[R / (R + h)]² (g/2) = g[R / (R + h)]² (1 / √2) = [R / (R + h)] R + h = √2 R h = R(√2 – 1) h = 0.414 R hence distance from centre = R + h = R + 0.414 R = 1.414 R

45.

At at what distance from the centre of the earth, the value of acceleration due to gravity g will be half that on the surface (R =radius of earth)

Answer»

At height h, g' = g[R / (R + h)]²

(g/2) = g[R / (R + h)]²

(1 / √2) = [R / (R + h)]

R + h = √2 R

h = R(√2 – 1)

h = 0.414 R

hence distance from centre = R + h

= R + 0.414 R

= 1.414 R
