Equal heat is given to two objects A and B of mass 1g. Temperature of A increases by 3^@C and B by 5^@C. Which object has more specific heat? And by what factor?

Answer»

Solution :Given : Heat given to A = Heat given to B
Change in Temperature of A =`DeltaT_A=3^@C`
Change in Temperature of B =`DeltaT_B=5^@C`
To Find: (i)Object with more specific heat
(ii)Change in the FACTOR
FORMULA : Heat = mass of water X specific heat x change in temperature
= m x c x `Delta`T
Solution: Heat given to A =Heat given to B
`m_Axxc_AxxDeltaT_A = m_Bxxc_BxxDeltaT_B`
`1 xx c_A xx 3 = 1 xx c_B xx 5`
`3c_A=5c_B`
`c_A/c_B=5/3`
Hence , specific heat of A is greater than specific heat of B. Also , specific heat of A is greater than specific heat of B by a factor of `5/3`

Though wood is a renewable source of energy, but the use of wood as fuel is not a wise decision. Explain.

Answer»

Solution :Wood is a renewable source of energy . It is obtained by cutting trees. A new plant sapling usually TAKES more than 15 years to grow and mature into a tree . Therefore , replenishment of cut down trees takes a very long time. Cutting down of trees causes depletion of the forests leading toimbalance in NATURE. Due to UNSUITABLE air and the above reasons, USAGE of wood as a source of energy is not a wise DECISION.

A student took four test tubes I, II, III and IV containing aluminium sulphate, copper sulphate, ferrous sulphate and zinc sulphate solutions, respectively. He placed an iron strip in each of them. In which test tube, a brown deposit is formed?

Answer»

Solution : A brown DEPOSIT is formed in TEST tube II because iron being less reactive does not displace metals from the solution of `Al_(2)(SO_(4))_(3),FeSO_(4)` and `ZnSO_(4)`but it is more reactive than Cu. So, it displaces COPPER from `CuSO_(4)` and forms `FeSO_(4)` which is GREEN in colour and a brown deposit of copper metal.

Explain the working process and applications of SONAR.

Answer»

Solution :1) SONAR STANDS for Sonographic Navigation and Ranging.
2) This is a method for deetecting and finding the distance of objects under water by means of reflected ultrasonic waves.
Working of SONAR :
1) SONAR system consists of a transmitter and a detector in the "Observation Centre" on board of aship.
2) From the observation centre,ultrasonic waves of high frequencyare sent in all directions under the water through transmitter.
3)These waves travel in straight lines till they hit an object such as a submarine, a sunken ship etc.
4) The waves are then reflected and are received back by the receiver at the observation centre.
5) The study of these reflected waves gives information about the direction of the object located.
6) The time between sending ultrasonic waveand receiving its echo, the distance of the object is calculated.
7) Reflections from various angles can be utilized to determine the SHAPE and size of the object.
MATHEMATICAL expression :
1) Let 'd' be the distance between SONAR and an underwater object.
2) 't' be the time between sending an ultrasonic wave and receiving its echo.
3) 'u' be the speed of sound in water.
The total distance covered by the wave from the SONAR to theobject and back is2d.
5) From the equation `s - UT implies 2d = ut implies d = (ut)/(2)`.
Application :
Marine geologists use this method to determine the depth of the seaand to locate underwater hills and valleys.

A coil made of insulated copper wire is connected to a galvanometer. What will happen to the deflection of the galvanometer if a bar magnet is pushed into the coil and then pulled out of it? Give reason for your answer and name the phenomenon involved.

Answer»

Solution :TAKE a coil AB of insulated copper wire having ANUMBER of turns. Connect the ENDS of coil to a sensitive galvanometer . Now take a bar magnet NS and rapidly bring the magnet towards the end B of coil as shown in Fig. 13.24. The galvanometer gives momentary deflection in one direction. Now take the magnet away from the coil, the galvanometer again gives momentary deflection but in the opposite direction. It clearly shows that motion of magnet induces, a current in the coil.
Again keep the magnet fixed and GENTLY move the coil AB either towards the magnet or away from the magnet. We get deflection in galvanometer even now. Thus, an induced current is PRODUCED in a coil whenever there is relative motion between the coil and the magnet. This phenomenon is known as the electromagnetic induction.

Fig. shows the position-time graph of a particle of mass 4 kg. What is the Force on the particle for t lt 0, t gt 4s, 0 lt t lt 4s? (b) Impulse at t= 0 and t= 4s ? (Consider one dimensional motion only)

Answer»

Solution :For `t lt 0.` No force as Particles is at rest.
For `t gt 4s`, No force again particle comes at rest.
For `0 lt t lt 4s,` as SLOPE of OA is constant so velocity constant i.e., a =0, so force must be ZERO.
(B) IMPULSE at t= 0
Impulse =change in momentum
`I=m(v-u)=4 (0-0.75)=3"kg ms"^(-1)`
Impulse at t=4s
`I=m(v-u) =4(0.075)=-3kg ms^(-1)`
