For a circuit shown in Fig. find the value of resistance R_2 and current I_2 flowing through R_2

Answer»

SOLUTION :If equivalent resistance of parallel combination of `R_(1) and R_(2)` is R,then `R=(R_(1)R_(2))/(R_(1)+R_(2))=(10R_(2))/(10+R_(2))`
According to Ohm.s law, `R=(V)/(I)`
`R=(50)/(10)=5Omega RARR (10R_(2))/(10+R_(2))=5 rArr R_(2)=10Omega`.
The current is EQUALLY DIVIDED into `R_(1) and R_(2)`.
Hence `I_(2)=5A`.

Attwo points S_(1) and S_(2) on a liquid surface two coherent wave sources are set in motion at t = 0 with the same phase. The speed of the waves in the liquid v = 0.5 m/s, the frequency of vibration eta = 5 Hz and the amplitude A = 0.04 m. At a point P of the liquid surface which is at a distance x_(1) = 0.30m from S_(1) and x_(2) = 0.34 m from S_(2) a piece of cork floats: (a) Find the displacement ofthe cork at t = 3 s. (b) Find the time t_(0)that elapse from the moment the wave sources were set in motion until the moment that the cork passes through the equilibrium position for the first time.

Answer»


Solution :Path difference between waves at P is
`Delta = 0.04m`
wavelength
`lambda = (v)/(n) = (0.5)/(5)` = 0.1m
= `2pi xx 0.04 = (4pi)/(5)`
The waves from `S_(1)` and `S_(2)` arrive at point P at DIFFERENT time `t_(1)` and `t_(2)` given as
= `t_(1) = (0.3)/(0.5)` = 0.6s and
`t_(2) = (0.34)/(0.5)` = 0.68s
equation of motion of cork it `t_(0) = 3s` is
`y = y_(1) + y_(2)`
= `Asin(omega + t_(0) - t) Asin(omega+(t_(0) - t_(2)))`
`A[sin(10pi(2.4)) + Asin(omega(t_(0) - t_(2)))]`
= `0.04 xx sin (23.2pi)`
= - 0.02344m.
If we consider t = 0 the time when cork starts it motion then the resulting oscillation at cork is given as
`y = A sin omegat + A sin(omega -(4pi)/(5))`
= `Rsin(omegat -THETA)`
`theta = tan^(-1) ((Asin(4pi//5))/(A + Acos(PI//5)))`
= `70^(@) = (2pi)/(5)` rad
Here initial phaseof `70^(@)` `(or (2pi)/(5) rad` will be there in cork motion when SECOND wave arrives at it. Thus time after which cork will pass through mean position is given as
` t = 0.68 + pi - (2pi)/((5)/(omega))`
= `0.68 + (3pi)/((5)/(10pi))`
= 0.68 + 0.06 = 0.74s.

Three thin prisms are combined as shown in figure. The refractive indices of the crown glass for red, yellow and violet rays are mu_r, mu_y and mu_v respectively and those for the flint glass are mu_r^', mu_y^r and mu_v^' respectively. Find the ratio A'/A for which (a) there is no net angular dispersion, and (b) there is no net deviation in the yellow ray.

Answer»


Solution :Total deviation for yellow ray produced by the prismcombination is ,
`delta_y = delta_(EY) - delta_(ty)`
` =2 delta_(ey) - 2delta_(ry)`
`= 2 (mu_y + 1)A - (mu_(re) -1)A`
Similarlyuthe ANGULAR dispersion produced by the combination is
`(a) For net angular dispersion to be ZERO,
`delta_t - delta_t = 0 =2 (mu_(upsilon c) - mu_(tc)A`
`=(mu_(upsilon t) - mu_(rt)A`
rArr (A)/(A) = (2(mu_(upsilon c) - mu_(r c)`/((mu_(upsilon c) - uu_rc)`
`= (2(mu_r - u_r))/((mu_r - mu))`
(b) Fro net deviation in the yellow ray to be zero,
`DELTA = -0`
`rArr 2(mu_(CY) -1)A = (2(mu_(cy) -1))/((mu_(ty) -1))`
`=(2(mu_y -1))/((mu_y -1))`

Answer»

Solution :Einstein.s photoelectric equation is `(1)/(2)mv^(2)=(HC)/(lamda)-W_(0)`
`(1)/(2)mv^(2)=(6.62xx3)/(4xx10^(3)xx10^(-10))xx10^(-26)-2xx1.6xx10^(-19)`
`v^(2)=(1.765xx2)/(9.1)xx10^(12)`
`v=sqrt((1.765xx2)/(9.1))xx10^(6)=6.228xx10^(5)ms^(-1)`
