Briefly discuss the observations of Herts, Hallwachs and Lenard.

Answer»

Solution :Hertz `:`
(i) Heinrich Hertz generate and detct electromagnetic wave with high voltage induction coil to cause a spark discharge between two metallic spheres.
(ii) When a sparkis formed, the charge will oscillate backand forth rapidly and the electromagnetic waves are produced.
(iii) The electromagnetic waves thus produced were detected by a detector that has a copper wirebent in the shape of a circle.
(iv) Although the detection of waves is successful, there is a problem in observing the tiny spark produced in the detector.
(v) In small dectector spark becamemore vigorous whenit was exposed to ultraviolet light.
(vi) The reason for this behaviour of the spark was not known at that time.
(vii) Later it was found that it isdue to the photoelectric emission.
(viii) 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 `:`
(i) 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.
(ii) A clean circular plate of zinc is mounted on an insulatingstand and it attached to a gold leaf electroscope by a wire.
(iii) When the uncharged zinc plate is irradiated by ultraviolet light from an arc lamp, it becomes positviely charged and the leaves will open.
(iv) Further, if the negatively charged zinc plate is exposedto ultraviolet light, the leaves will close as the charges leaked away quickly.
(v) If the plate is positively charged, it becomes more positive upon UV rays irradiation and the leaves will open further.
(vi) 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 `:`
(i) Lenard studied this electron emission phenomenon in DETAIL. His simple EXPERIMENTAL setup is as shown in Figure.
(ii) The apparatus consists of two metallic plates A and C placed in an evacuaed quartz bulb B are connected in the circuit.

(iii) When ultraviolet light is incident on the negative plate C, an electric current flows in the circuit that is INDICATED by the deflection in the galvanometer.
(iv) On other hand, if the positive plate is irradiated by the ultraviolet light, no current is observed in the circuit.
(v) 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.
(vi) On reaching the positive plate through the evacuated bulb, the circuit is completed and the current flows in it.
(vii) Thus, the ultraviolet light falling on the negative plate causes the electron emission from the surface of the plate.

Establish a relation between coverage distance and height of transmitting antenna.

Answer»

Solution :Let `AB` be a T.V. tower of height `h` above the earth. `T.V.` signal is received within a circle of `CQ=QD` on the surface of earth. Let `R` be the radius of the earth.
Let `CQ=QD=d` and `AB=h`.
`:. OB=R+h`
In rt. `/_d` triangle `OCB,`
`OB^(2)=OC^(2)+BC^(2)`
`(R+h)^(2)=R^(2)+d^(2)`
`d^(2)=(R+h)^(2)-R^(2)`
`=R^(2)+h^(2)+2Rh-R^(2)`
or `d^(2)=h^(2)+2Rh`
SINCE `h^(2)` can be neglected as compared to `2hR`
`:.d^(2)=2Rh` or `d=sqrt(2hR)`
or `h=(d^(2))/(2R).`

AREA covered by T.V. signal `=pid^(2)`
`=pi2hR=2pihR`
Population covered = Area covered `XX` Population density
Since `dpropsqrt(h,)( :.2R` is constant )
So greater the height of T.V. transmitting antenna, grater is its range.

Which of the following changes to a double-slit interference experiment with light would increase the widths of the fringes in the diffraction pattern that appears on the screen?

Answer»

Use light of a shorter wavelength
Move the screen closer to the slits
Move the slits closer together
Use light with a lower wave speed

Solution :Relative to the CENTRAL maximum, the locations of the bright fringes on the screen are given by the EXPRESSION mL(`lamda//d)`, where `lamda` is the wavelength of the light used, L is the distance to the screen, d is the SEPARATION of the slits, and m is an integer. the width of a FRINGE is, therefore (m+1)`L(lamda//d)-mL(lamda//d)=lamdaL//d`. one way to increase `lamdaL//d` is to DECREASE d.

Consider two conducting spheres ofradill R_(1) and R_(2) with R_(1) gt R_(2). If the two are at the same potential, the larger sphere has more charge than the smaller sphere. State whether the charge density of the smaller sphere is more or less than that of the larger one.

Answer»

Solution :Here, `V_(1) = V_(2)`
`(Q_(1))/(4PI in_(0) R_(1)) = (Q_(2))/(4pi in_(0) R_(2)) :. (Q_(1))/(Q_(2)) = (R_(1))/(R_(2))` …(i)
As `R_(1) gt R_(2). :. Q_(1) gt Q_(2)`
i.e., larger sphere has more charge than the smaller sphere.
Now, `sigma_(1) = (Q_(1))/(4pi R_(1)^(2)) and sigma_(2) = (Q_(2))/(4pi in R_(2)^(2)) :. (sigma_(2))/(sigma_(1)) = (Q_(2))/(R_(2)^(2)) . (R_(1)^(2))/(Q_(1))`
USING (i) , `(sigma_(2))/(sigma_(1)) = (R_(2))/(R_(1)) . (R_(1)^(2))/(R_(2)^(2)) = (R_(1))/(R_(2))`
As `R_(1) gt R_(2)`, therefore, `sigma_(2) gt sigma_(1)`
i.e., charge density of smaller sphere SI more than the charge density of larger sphere.

Two point charges +1 nC and 4 nC are 1 m apart in air. Find the positions along the line joining the two charges at which resultant potential is zero.

Answer»

Solution :
At A charge is `1 xx 10^(-9) C`
At B charge is `- 4 xx 10^(-9) C `
Now at P RESULTANT potential is zero.
` therefore (1)/(4 r epsi_0) [ (1 xx 10^(-9))/(x ) - (4 xx 10^(-9))/(1 - x) ] = 0`
`([(1 xx x) - 4(x)] xx 10^(-9))/(x(1 -x )) = 0`
` + 1 - x -4x = 0`
` 1 = 5x`
