Determine the wavelength of spectral lines appearing on transition of exicted Li atoms from the state 3S down to the ground state 2S. The Rudberg corrections for the S and P terms are -0.41 and -0.04. |
|
Answer» Solution :The enrgy of the `3S` STATE is `E(3S)=-(ħR)/((3-0.41)^(2))=-2.03eV` The ENERGY of a `2S` state is `E(2S)= -(ħR)/((2-0.41)^(2))= -5.39eV` The energy of a `2P` state is `E(2P)=(ħR)/((2-.04)^(2))=-3.55eV` We see that `E(2S) lt E(2P) lt E(3S)` The transitions are `3S rarr2P` and `2Prarr2S`. Direct `3Srarr2S` transition is forbidden by selection rules. The wavelength are determined by `E_(2)-E_(1)= DeltaE=(2piħc)/(lambda)` Substitution gives `lambda= 0.816mu m(2Srarr2P)` and `lambda=0.67mu m(2Prarr2S)` |

Explain the series of spectral lines for H-atom whose fixed inner orbit numbers are 3 and 4. |
|
Answer» Solution :According to Bohr's theory, electromagnetic radiation of a particular wavelength is emitted when there is a transition of the electron from a higher energy state to a lower energy state. Let the quantum number `n=n_(1)` REPRESENT a higher energy state and `n=n_(1)` represent a lower energy state `(n_(i)gtn_(f))`. For hydrogen, the wavelength `(lamda)` of the radiation arising due to transition from `n_(i)" to "n_(f)` is given by `(1)/(lamda)=R((1)/(n_(f)^(2)-(f)/(n_(i)^(2)))),` where R is the RYDBERG constant. The SPECTRAL SERIES arising due to the transitions to `n_(1)=3` from `n_(1)=4, 5,6,...,` etc. is called the Paschen series. The wavelengths in this series are given by `(1)/(lamda)=R((1)/(3^(2))-(1)/(n_(1)^(2)))(n_(1)=4,5,6,...,` etc.) The spectral series arising due to the transitions to `n_(1)=4" from "n_(1)=5,6,7,...,` etc. is called the Brackett series. The wavelengths in this series are given by `(1)/(lamda)=R((1)/(4^(2))-(1)/(n_(1)^(2)))(n_(1)=5,6,7,...,` etc.) |

A double convex lens made of glass refractive index 1.6 has its both surfaces of equal radii of curvature of 30 cm each. An object of 5 cm height is placed at a distance of 12.5 cm from the lens. Find the position, nature and size of the image. |
|
Answer» Solution :For double convex lens `R_(1) = +30 cm` and `R_(2) = -30 cm, n=1.6, u =-12.5 cm` Using relatino `1/f=(n-1)(1/R_(1)+1/R_(2))`, we have `1/f =(1.6-1) (1/30 + 1/30)= 0.6 xx 2/30 RARR f= 30/(0.6 xx 2) = 25 cm` Using lens formula `1/v -1/u = 1/f`, we have `1/v =1/f+1/u = 1/25 + 1/(-12.5) = (1-2)/(25) = -1/25 rArr v=-25 cm` Height of object h = 5 cm. If height IMAGE be `h.`, then `h^(.)/h = v/u` `therefore h. = v/u.h = (-25)/(-12.5) xx 5 = 10 cm` Thus, a virtual and erect image of 10 cm height is formed at 25 cm from the lens. |

Briefly discuss the observations of Hertz, Hallwachs and Lenard. Hertz observation: |
|
Answer» Solution :• In 1887, Heinrich Hertz first became successful in generating and detection electromagnetic wave with his high voltage induction coil to cause a spark discharge between two metallic spheres. • When a spark is formed, the charges will oscillate back and forth rapidly and the electromagnetic waves are produced. • The electromagnetic waves thus produced were detected by a detector that has a copper wire bent in the shape of a circle. Although the detection of waves is successful, there is a problem in observing the tiny spark produced in the detector. : • In order to improve the visibility of the spark, Hertz made many attempts and finally noticed an important thing that small detector spark became more vigorous when it was exposed to ultraviolet light. • The reason for this behaviour of the spark was not known at that time. Later it was found that it is due to the photoelectric emission. • Whenever ultraviolet light is incident on the metallic sphere, the electrons on the outer surface are emitted which caused the spark to be more vigorous. Hallwachs Observation ![]() • In 1888, Wilhelm Hallwachs, a German physicist, confirmed that the strange behaviour of the spark is due to the ACTION of ultraviolet light with his simple experiment. • A clean circular plate of zinc is mounted on an insulating stand and is ATTACHED to a GOLD leaf electroscope by a wire. When the uncharged zinc plate is irradiated by ultraviolet light from an arc lamp, it becomes positively charged and the leaves will open. • Further, if the negatively charged zinc plate is exposed to ultraviolet light, the leaves will close as the charges leaked away quickly. If the plate is positively charged, it becomes more positive upon UV rays irradiation and the leaves will open further. • From these observations, it was concluded that negatively charged electrons were emitted from the zinc plate under the action of ultraviolet light. Lenard.s observation:• In 1902, Lenard studied this electron emission phenomenon in detail. The Ultraviolet Radiation apparatus consists of two metallic plates A Electrons and C placed in an evacuated quartz bulb. The galvanometer G and BATTERY B are connected in the circuit. • When ultraviolet light is incident on the negative plate C, an electric current Quartz bulb FLOWS in the circuit that is indicated by the deflection in the galvanometer. On other hand, if the positive plate is irradiated by Experimental setup of Lenard the ultraviolet light, no current is observed in the circuit • From these observations, it is concluded that when ultraviolet light falls on the negative plate, electrons are ejected from it which are attracted by the positive plate A. On reaching the positive plate through the evacuated bulb, the circuit is completed and the current flows in it. • Thus, the ultraviolet light falling on the negative plate causes the electron emission from the surface of the plate. |

The horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field at a certain place is 4.0xx10^(-5)T and the direction of the field is from the geographic south to the geographic north. A very long straight conductor is carrying a steady current of 1A. What is the force per unit length on it when it is placed on a horizontal table and the direction of the current is east to west |
Answer» Solution :(a) When I amount of current is passing through a straight conducting wire of length `vecl` (WHOSE direction is taken as the direction of current) placed in a uniform MAGNETIC field `VECB`, magnetic force `vecF` EXERTED on it is given by Ampere.s law as, `vecF=I(veclxxvecB)` `thereforeF=IlBsintheta` (where `theta` = angle between `veclandvecB`) Magnetic force per unit length, `F/l=IBsintheta""...(1)` = `IB_(h)sin90^(@)" "(because"Here "B=B_(h)andtheta=90^(@))` = `(1)(3xx10^(-5))(1)` = `3xx10^(-5)Nm^(-1)` (b) Now, in this case as per the statement, conducting wire is placed along `vecB_(h)` and current is passed from south to north and so in equation (1), we should take `theta=0^(@)`. Hence, in this case, `F/l=0" "(becausetheta=0^(@)rArrsintheta=0)` |

Figure 11-16a shows a safe (mass M = 430 kg) hanging by a rope (negligible mass) from a boom (a = 1.9 m and b = 2.5 m) that consists of a uniform hinged beam (m=85 kg) and horizontal cable (negligible mass). What is the tension T_(c) in the cable? In other words, what is the magnitude of the force vecT_(c) on the beam from the cable? |
|
Answer» Solution :The system here is the beam alone, and the forces on it are shown in the free-body diagram. The force from the cable is `vecT_(c)`. The gravitational force on the beam acts at the bcam.s center of MASS (at the heam.s center) and is represented by its equivalent `mvecg`. The vertical component of the force on the beam from the hinge is `vecF_(v)` and the horizontal component of the force from the hinge is `vecF_(h)`. The force from the rope supporting the safe is `vecT_(r)`. Because beam, rope, and safe are stationary, the magnitude of `vecT_(r)` is equal to the weight of the safe: `T_(r) = Mg`. We place the origin O of an xy COORDINATE system at the hinge. Because the system is in static equilibrium, the balancing equations apply to it. calculation: let us start with Eq. 11-27(`tau_("net,z")= 0`) NOTE that we are asked for the magnitude of force `vecT_(c)` and not of forces `vecF_(h)` and `vecF_(v)`acting at the hinge, at point O. To eliminate `vecF_(h)` and `vecF_(v)` from the torque calculation, we should calculate torques about an axis that is perpendicular to the figure at point O. Then `vecF_(h)` and `vecF_(v)` will have moment arms of zero. The lines of action for `vecT_(c)vecT_(r)`, and `mvecg` are dashed. The corresponding moment arms are a, b, and `b//2`. Writing torques in the form of `r_(bot) F` and using our rule about SIGNS for torques, the balancing equation `tau_("net,z")= 0` becomes `(a)(T_(c))-(b)(T_(r))-((1)/(2)b)(mg)=0`(11-29) Substituting Mg for `T_(r)` and solving for `T_(c)` we find that `T_(c)= (gb(M+(1)/(2)m))/(a)` `((9.8 m//s^(2) )(2.5 m)(430 kg +85/2 kg))/(1.9m)` `= 6093 N ~~ 6100 N. `

(a) Why is an intrinsic semiconductor deliberately converted into an extrinsic semiconductor by adding impurity atoms ? (b) Explain briefly the two processes that occur in p-n junction region to create a potential barrier. |
|
Answer» (b) During formation of a p-n junction .diffusion. and .drift. are two important processes taking place in it. Whenever a p-n junction is formed, holes diffuse from p-SIDE to n-side and electrons diffuse from n-side to p-side. Diffusion of an electron from n to p-side leaves BEHIND an immobile ionised donor (positive charge). Similarly, diffusion of a hole from p-to n-side leaves behind an immobile acceptor (negative charge). Thus, due to diffusion of electrons and holes a layer of positive charge (or positive space charge region) is developed on n-side of junction and a layer of negative charge (or negative space charge region) is developed on p-side of junction. Therefore, a. depletion layer. is formed on either side of junction consisting of immobile ion cores devoid of their electrons or holes. Due to positive space charge on n-side and negative space charge on p-side of the junction an electric field is developed at the junction which is directed from n-side to p-side. Due to this electric field electrons drift from p-side to n-side and holes drift from n-side to p-side thus giving rise to a drift current. The direction of drift current is opposite to that of diffusion current and in equilibrium state the two currents just balance each other. Hence, no net current flows in p-n junction. The loss of electrons from n-region and gain of electrons by p-region causes a potential difference across the junction. This potential opposes further FLOW of charge CARRIERS across the junction and is CALLED the potential barrier. |
