Consider sunlight incident on a pinhole of widht 10^(3)Å. The image of the pinhole seen on a screen shall be |
|
Answer» a sharp white ring. `(lamda)/(d)=(6000)/(1000)=6implies(lamda)/(d)gtgtgtgt1` Amount of diffraction would be very large. HENCE image would appear different than geometrical image. Thus option (B) is correct. In the present case, at the central point on the screen, constituent colours of white light superpose with equal proportion and produce constructive interference to give white coloured spot at the central position. But as we MOVE away from centre, on the successive rings, constructive interference takes place for different colours (in the order from blue to red) and so different colours are dominant in different rings (with very small amounts for remaining colours). Thus, region around central white spot appears to be colourful in which as the order of MAXIMUM increases, intensity of light goes on decreasing. It means this region diffuses as we move away from centre. Thus, option (D) is also correct. |

Show that the force on each plate of a parallel plate capacitor has a magnitude equal to (½) QE, where Q is the charge on the capacitor, and E is the magnitude of electric Held between the plates. Explain the origin of the factor 1//2 |
|
Answer» Solution :Let area of plate is A and surface charge DENSITY is `SIGMA` . Charge on capacitor q = `sigma`A and electric field `E= (sigma)/(in_(0))` The work done for increasing the distance `Delta`x between two plates of capacitor opposite to the force, W = `FDeltax ` If `rho_(E)` is the energy density of capacitor then potential energy of capacitor = density `xx` INCREASE in VOLUME `F.Deltax = rho_(E)xxA Deltax` `:. F = rho_(E) xxA ` `:. F = (1)/(2) in_(0) E^(2) A [ because rho_(E)= (2) in_(0)E^(2)]` `=(1)/(2) in_(0)ExxEA` `=(1)/(2) sigmaA xxE [because E = (sigma)/(in_(0))implies sigma = E in_(0)]` `:. F = (1)/(2) qE [ because sigma = (q)/(A) implies q = sigma A ]` The physical origin of the factor `(1)/(2)` in the force formula lies because just outside the conductor,field is E and inside it is zero. Hence, it is the average value `(E)/(2)` of the field that CONTRIBUTE to the force. |
