|
Answer» Solution :Linear S.H.M.Is the simplestkind of OSCILLATORYMOTION in WHICHA bodywhen displcedfrom its MEAN position,oscillates 'toand fro'about meanposition and the restoringforce (or acceleration)is alwaysdirectedtowardsits mean positionand its magnitudeis directlytowardsits mean positionand its magnitudeis directly proportionalto the displacementform the meanposition. Consider a particleP movingalongthe circumferenceof a circleof radiusa with uniformangularspeed of `omega` inanticlockwise direction asshown. Particles P alongcircumferenceof the circlehas itsprojectionparticleon diameter ABat point M. Supposethat particleP startsfrom the initialpositionwith initial phase angle `alpha` (angle betweenradiusOP and the X- axis at the time `t = 0` ) In time t, the anglebetween OP and X-axis is `(omegat + alpha)`particle P movingwith constantangularvelocity `(omega)`as shown. ![]() `cos (omegat + alpha) - x/a` `:.x= a cos (omega t + alpha) "..."(i)` This is the expansionfor displacementof particleM at time t. As VELOCITYOF the particleis the time rate of change of displacement then we have `v= (dx)/(dt) = (d)/(dt)` `[a cos (omegat + alpha)]` `:. v = - a omegasin (omegat + alpha) "..."(ii)` As accelerationof particle is the time rate of change of velocity,we have `a = (dv)/(dt) = d/(dt) [-aomega sin (omegat + alpha)]` `:. a = - aomega^(2) cos (omegat + alpha)` `:. a = - omega^(2)x` Hence, the projectionof a uniformcircular motion on a diameterof a circle is simple harmonicmotion.

By Newton's law of cooling, `((d theta)/(dt))= k(theta - theta_(0))` `:. ((d theta//dt)_(1))/((d theta//dt)_(2)) = ((theta_(1)- theta_(0)))/(theta_(2) - theta_(1)))` `:. ((d theta//dt)_(1))/((d theta//dt)_(2)) = ((50^(@) - 25^(@)))/((45^(@) - 25^(@)))` `:. ((d theta)/(dt))_(2) = (20^(@))/(25^(@)) xx ((d theta)/(dt))_(1) = (20^(@))/(25^(@)) xx 4 = 3.2` `:. ((d theta)/(dt))_(2) = 3.2^(@)C//"min"` |

(c) How much work is done in moving a small test charge from the point (5,0,0) to (-7,0,0) along the x-axis? Does the answer change if the path of the test charge between the same points is not along the x-axis ? |
|
Answer» <P> Solution :Here - q is at (0,0 -a) and + q is at (0,0 a)(a) Potential at (0,0,z) would be `V = (1)/(4 pi epsilon_(0)) ((-q)/(z + a)) + (1)/(4 pi epsilon_(0)) ((q)/(z - a))` `= (q(z + a - z + a))/(4 pi epsilon_(0) (z^(2) - a^(2))) = (q^(2) a)/(4 pi epsilon_(0) (Z^(2) - a^(2)))` `V = (P)/(4 pi epsilon_(0) (z^(2) - a^(2)))` potential at (x,y,0) i.e., at a point 1 to z axis where charges are located is zero We have proved that `V = (P cos THETA)/(4 pi epsilon_(0) (r^(2) - a^(2) cos^(2) theta))` if `(r )/(a) gt gt 1` then `a lt lt r :. V = (P cos theta)/(4 pi epsilon_(0) r^(2))` `:. V = (1)/(r^(2))` i.e., potential is inversly PROPORTIONAL to square of the distance (c ) Potential at (5,0,0) is `V_(1) = (-q)/(4 pi epsilon_(0)) (1)/(sqrt((5 - 0)^(2)) + (-a)^(2)))` `+ (q)/(4 pi epsilon_(0)) (1)/(sqrt((5 - 0)^(2) + a^(2)))` `= (-q)/(4 pi espilon_(0)sqrt(25 + a^(2))) + (q)/(4 pi epsilon_(0) sqrt(25 + a^(2))) = 0` Potential at (-7, 0,0) `V_(2) = (-q)/(4 pi epsilon_(0)) (1)/(sqrt((-7 -0)^(2) + a^(2)))` = zero As work done = charge `(V_(2) - V_(1))` W = zero As work done by electrostatic field is independent of the path connecting the two points THEREFORE work done will CONTINUE to be zero along every path. |

Answer» Solution :Number of electrons in the human body `=10^(28)` Number of electrons in me and my friend after lost of `1%= 10^(28)xx1%` `=10^(28)xx(1)/(100)` `n = 10^(26)` electrons Separation distance d= 1 m Charge of each person q `= 10^(26)xx1.6xx10^(-19)` `q= 1.6xx10^(7)`C ELECTROSTATIC FORCE `F= (1)/(4piepsilon_(0))(q_(1)q_(2))/(r^(2))= (9xx10^(9)xx1.6xx10^(7)xx1.6xx10^(7))/(1^(2))` `F=2.304 xx10^(24)N ` Mass of the person M = 60 kg Accelerationdue to gravity g = `9.8ms^(2)` Weight (W) = mg `=60 xx9.8` W = 588 N Comparison : Electrostatic force is equal to `3.92 xx10^(21)` times of weight of the person. |

A steel beam used in the construction of a bridge has a length of 30.0 m when the temperature is 15^(@)C. On a very hot day, when the temperature is 35^(@)C, what will the beam's change in length be? (The coefficient of linear expansion for structural steel is +1.2xx10^(-5)//""^(@)C.) |
|
Answer» Solution :The change in LENGTH o the beam is `DeltaL=alphaL_(0)DeltaT=(1.2xx10^(-5))/(""^(@)C)(30.0m)(35^(@)C-15^(@)C)=7.2xx10^(-3)m=7.2mm` As we're mentioned, substances also undergo volume changes when HEAT is lost or ABSORBED. The change in volume `DeltaV`, corresponding to a temperature change, `DeltaT`, is GIVEN by the equation `DeltaV=betaV_(0)DeltaT` Where `V_(0)` is the sample's initialvolume and `beta` is the coefficient of volume expansion of the substance. since we're now LOOKING at the change in a three-dimensional quantity (volume) rather than a one-dimensional quantity (length), for most solids, `beta=3alpha`. nearly all substances have a positive value of `beta`, which means they expand upon heating, an extremely important example of a substance with a negative value of `beta` is liquid water between `0^(@)C and 4^(@)C`. unlike the vast majority of substances, liquid water expands as it nears its freezing point and solidifies (which is why ice has a lower density and floats in water). |

An electric toaster uses nichrome for its heating element. When a negligibly small current passes through it, its resistance at 27^(@)C is found to be 73.2Omega. When the toaster is connected to a 230 V supply, the current settles after a few seconds, to a steady value of 2.748 A. What is the steady temperature of the nichrome element? The temperature coefficient of resistance of nichrome averaged over the temperature range involved, is 1.70xx10^(-4)""^(@)C^(-1) |
|
Answer» Solution :When the current through the element is very small, heating EFFECTS can be ignored and the TEMPERATURE T, of the element is the same as room temperature. When the toaster is connected to the supply, its initial current will be SLIGHTLY higher than its steady value of 2.748 A. But due to heating effect of the current, the temperature will rise. This will cause an increase in resistance and a slight decrease in current. In a few seconds, a steady state will be reached when temperature will rise no further, and both the resistance of the element and the current drawn will ACHIEVE steady values. The resistance `R_(2)` at the steady temperature `T_(2)` is `i_(1)` :`i_(2)`:..........`i_(n)`=`(1)/(R_(1))`:`(1)/(R_(2))`.........`(1)/(R_(n))` Using the RELATION `R_(2)` = `R_(1) [1 + a (T_(2)-T_(1) )]` with a = `1.70 xx 10^(-4)""^(@)C` we get `T_(2)-T_(1)`=`((83.7-73.2))/( (75.3)xx1.70x10^(-4))`=`843.78""^(@)C`that is, `T_(2)=(843.78+27.0)""^(@)C`=`870.78""^(@)C``T_(2)-T_(1)`=`((83.7-73.2))/( (75.3)xx1.70x10^(-4))`=`843.78""^(@)C` Thus, the steady temperature of the heating element (when heating effect due to the current equals heat loss to the surroundings) is `870.78""^(@)C`. |
