Answer question numbers (a) - (d) on the basis of your understanding of the following paragraph and the related studied concepts : India today is facing the problem of overuse of resources, contamination of water and soil and lack of methods of processing the waste. The time has come for the world to say goodbye to "single-use plastics". Steps must be undertaken to develope environment-friendly substitutes, effective plastic waste collection and methods of its disposal. Indore treated 15 lakh metric tonnes of waste in just 3 years, through biomining and bioremediation, techniques. Bioremediation involves introducing microbes into a landfill to naturally 'break' it down and biomining involves using trommel machines to sift through the waste to separate the soil and the waste component. The city managed to chip away 15 lakh metric tonnes of waste at a cost of around Rs. 10 crore. A similar experiment was successfully carries out in Ahmedabad also. Do you think microbes will work similarly in landfill sites as they work in the laboratory ? Justify your answer. |
| Answer» Solution :As is the case in Indore CITY, the MICROBES can WORK in landfill SITES just as WELL as in laboratory conditions by substantiating it with biomining. | |

Explain why a tank filled with water or swimming pool looks shallower. Explain with the help of a ray diagram. |
Answer» Solution :To an observer, a swimming pool or a tank filled with water APPEARS shallower due to the phenomenon of refraction of light. The bottom of the pool or the tank appears to be raised. TWO light rays starting from the edge of the object (O) kept at the bottom of the pool gets refracted at the water - air interface. The light rays move from a denser (water) to a rarer medium (air), hence they bend AWAY from the normal. On externding the diverging rays, they APPEAR to meet at point 1 to form the IMAGE which is virtual and appear to be raised. The distance of the object from the surface of water is called the Real depth and the distance of the image from the water surface is called Apparent depth. Apparent depth is less than the real depth. Therefore the bottom floor of the pool or an object at the floor of the pool appears to be raised.

If mass of a planet is eight times the mass of the earth and its radius is twice the radius of the earth, what will be the escape velocity for that planet? |
|
Answer» Solution :Given : Mass of the PLANET `(M_1)` = 8 x Mass of the earth `(M_2)` Radius of the planet `(R_1)` = 2 x Radius of the earth `(R_2)` To find : Escape VELOCITY`(v_"esc")` of the planet Formula : `v_"esc"=SQRT((2GM)/R)` Solution: Mass of earth = `6xx10^24` KG and Radius of the earth `=6.4xx10^6` m , G=Gravitational constant = `6.67xx10^(-11) Nm^2//kg^2` `therefore` Mass of the planet = `8xx6xx10^24` kg `therefore` Radius of the planet = `2xx6.4xx10^6` m `v_"esc"=sqrt((2GM_1)/R_1)=sqrt((2xx6.67xx10^(-11)xx8xx6xx10^24)/(2xx6.4xx10^6))` `=2xx11.18xx10^3` `=22.4xx10^3` =22.4 km/s `(because sqrt((2xx6.67xx10^(-11)xx8xx6xx10^24)/(2xx6.4xx10^6))=11.18xx10^3)` The escape velocity of the planet is 22.4 km/s |

Deduce an expression to measure electrc power. |
|
Answer» Solution :1. Consider that a charge (Q) COULOMB passes through a POINT A. moves to point B in time interval 't' seconds. 2. Let V be the potential DIFFERENCE between the points A and B. 3. The work done by electric field in time 't' is given by W = QV-(1) 4. The work is equal to the energy lost by the charge while passing through the conductor for time 't'. 5. Energy lost by the conductor in `sec = (W)/(t).` From (1), `(W)/(t)=(QV)/(t)-(2)` We know, `(Q)/(t)=Iand(W)/(t)=P("Power")` Then `(2)rArrP=VI-(3)` This equation can be used to calculate power consumption by any electric devie that is connected in a CIRCUIT. From Ohm's law V = I R `therefore(3)rArrPI^(2)R. (or)(V^(2))/(R)-(4)` 6. To know the power that can be extracted from BATTERY or any source can be calculated by `P=epsilonI.` Whose `epsilon` is the emf of the battery or source.

Frequency is the most fundamental . Why is heavy water used as amoderator ? |
|
Answer» Solution :(i) Heavy water is water highly enriched in the HYDROGEN isotope deuterium. (ii) We can compare the neutron interactions with billiard ball collision. Where neutron collides with nucleus of other atoms & LOSE energy. If the colliding nucleus size is small like hydrogen nucleus it will lose MAXIMUM energy. If nucleus is heavy the neutron hits the nucleus just changes is direction but not that much change in the energy of neutron. (ii) So we USE heavy water as MODERATOR to slow down neutrons. |

A wire of given length is doubled on itself and this process is repeated once again. By what factor does the resistance of the wire change? |
|
Answer» Solution :As the length of the wire become `1/4`of the ORIGINAL length its area of cross-section become 4 times. So, NEW resistance `R.RHO (l.)/(A.) = rho ((1 //4))/(4A) = 1/(4 xx4) (rho 1/A) = R/16 ( :. R = rho l/A)` Thus, the new resistance is `1/16` of the original resistance. |

How does a solenoid behave like a magnet ? Can you determine the north and south poles of a current carrying solenoid with the help of a bar magnet ? Explain. |
Answer» Solution :A solenoid is a long coil of CIRCULAR loops of insulated COPPER wire, magnetic field lines are produced around the solenoid when a current is allowed to flow through it. The field lines produced in a current carrying solenoid is shown in the following figure. In the above figure, when the north pole of a bar magnet is brought NEAR the end connected to the negative terminal of the battery, the solenoid repels the bar magnet, since like POLES repel each other, the end connected to the nagative terminal of the battery behaves as the north pole of the solenoid and other end behaves as a south pole. Hence, ONE end of the solenoid behaves as a north pole and the other end behaves as a south pole. |

What does an electric circuit mean ? Name a device that helps to maintain a potential difference acrou a conductor in a clrcuit. When do we say that the potential difference across a conductor is 1 volt ? Calcu1tte the amount of work done in shifting a charge of 2 coulombs from a point A to B having potentials 110 V and 25 V respectively. |
