A moving coil galvanometer is a sensitive device which can be used as a detector to check if a curretn is flowing in a circuit. A galvanometer works on the principle that a current carrying coil placed in a radial magnetic field experiences a deflecting torque whose magnitudes is directly proportional to the electric current passing through it. The deflection phi is indicated by a pointer and is give as phi = (NAB)/k cdot I. A galvonometer can be used to measure electric current flowing througha circuit direcly in ampere and its submultiples. For this purpose we join a small resistance 'r_s' in parallel to the galvonometer. Such a shunted galvonometer is called an ammeter. If a galvanomter, having a resistance R_G, givens full scale deflection for a current I_g and we want to measure a current ranging from 0 - I_g A, then the value of shunt resistance will be r_s = (R_G cdot I_g)/(I - I_g) If you want to measure a current ranging 0 - 1.5 A using the above galvonometer. What shunt resistance should be joined with it ? Resistance of galvanometer coil is 300 Omega. |
| Answer» SOLUTION :Shunt resistance `r_s = (R_G.I_g)/(I - I_g) = (300 XX (600 xx 10^(-6)))/(1.5 - (600 xx 10^(-6))) = 0.12 Omega` | |

|
Answer» Solution :Torque experienced by a COIL placed in a magnetic field B is given by `tau = N A I B SIN theta`, where `theta` is the angle between `vecA and vecB`. RADIAL magnetic field is that in which `theta` is always `90^@` irrespective of the ORIENTATION of coil within the magnetic field so that `tau = N A I B` |

What is emission spectra? Give their types |
Answer» Solution :Emission spectra: When the spectrum of self luminous source is taken, we get emission spectrum. Each source has its own characteristic emission spectrum. The emission spectrum can be divided into three types: (i) CONTINUOUS emission spectra (or continuous spectra): If the light from incandescent lamp (FILAMENT bulb) is allowed to pass through prism (simplest spectroscope), it splits into seven colours. THUS, it consists of wavelengths containing all the visible colours ranging from violet to red. Examples: spectrum obtained from carbon arc, incandescent solids, liquids gives continuous spectra.![]() (ii) Line emission spectrum (or line spectrum): Suppose light from hot gas is allowed to pass through prism, line spectrum is observed. Line spectra are also KNOWN as discontinuous spectra. The line spectra are sharp lines of definite wavelengths or frequencies. Such spectra arise due to excited ATOMS of elements. These lines are the characteristics of the element which means it is different for different elements. Examples: spectra of atomic hydrogen, helium, etc. ![]() (iii) Band emission spectrum (or band spectrum): Band spectrum consists of several number of very closely spaced spectral lines which overlapped together forming specific bands which are separated by dark spaces, known as band spectra. This spectrum has a sharp edge at one end and fades out at the other end. Such spectra arise when the molecules are excited. Band spectrum is the characteristic of the molecule hence, the structure of the molecules can be studied using their band spectra. Examples, spectra of hydrogen gas, ammonia gas in the discharge tube etc. |

A magnetic pole of bar magnet with pole strength of 100 Am is 20 cm away from the centre of a bar magnet. Bar magnet has pole-strength of 200 Am and has a length of 5 cm. If the magnetic pole is on the axis of the bar magnet, find the force on the magnetic pole. |
|
Answer» Solution :Here, `p= 200` Am `Z= 20 cm = 0.2`m `2l = 5 cm = 0.05 m` `p_1 = 100` Am `F=?` The MAGNETIC moment of bar magnet `m= 2pl = p(2l)` `= 200 xx 0.05 = 10 "Am"^2` The magnetic FIELD at the pole of bar magnet, `B= (mu_0)/( 4pi ) (2m)/( z^3)` `B= (2m)/(z^3) xx 10^(-7)` `= (2 xx 10 xx 10^(-7) )/( (0.2) ^(3) )` `therefore B= 2.5 xx 10^(-4)` T Now the force on the magnetic pole `p_(1) = 100` Am `F= p_(1) B` `= 100 xx 2.5 xx 10^(-4)` `therefore F= 2.5 xx 10^(-2) N` |

A straight wire of length L and carrying a curretn I stays suspended horizontally in mid air in a region where there is a uniform magnetic field vecB. The linear mass density of the wire is lambda. Obtain the magnitude and direction of this magnitude field. |
|
Answer» Solution :Magnitude field `vecB` should be such that force acting on current carrying conductor due to it acts vertically UPWARD and just balances the weight of the conductor so that conductor remains freely SUSPENDED in MID AIR. `:. BLI = mg = lambda L g "" [ :. m = lambda L` = mass of wire] `implies B = (lambda g)/I` Keeping in mind Fleming.s left hand rule, we can say that `vecB` MUST act horizontally in a direction perpendicular to the wire carrying current. |

If 10 power 9electrons move out of body to another body every seconds. How much time is required to get a total charges of 1 C on the other body? |
| Answer» SOLUTION :In one second `10^(@) `electrons move out the body. Thereofore ther CHAGES given out in second is ` 1.6 xx 10 ^(-19) xx 10 ^(@) C. `The time requiredto accumulatea charges of 1 C can then be estimated to be ` 1C + ( 1.6 xx 10^(-10) C//s)= 6.25 xx10 ^(9)s = 6.25 xx 10 ^(9) +( 365xx 24xx 3600)` years = 198 years.Thus to collecta charges of one coulomb from ABODY from which `10^(9) `electrons move out very seconds. we will need approximately200 years. | |

What is the absolute electric potential at the position of the third charge if q_(a)=- 6.0 mu C , q_(b)=+4.0muC , q_(c)=+2.0 mu C , a= 4.0 mand b=3.0 m ? Suppose that the third charge which is initially at rest is repelled to infinity by the combined electric field of the other two charges which are held fixed . What is the final kinetic energy of the third charge ? |
|
Answer» Solution :The electric POTENTIAL at P (the position of the third charge ) due to the presence of the first charge is `V_(a)=K_(e)(q_(a))/(c)=(9XX10^(9))((-6xx10^(-6)))/((sqrt(4^(2))+3^(2)))=-1.08xx10^(4)`V Likewise the electric potential due to the presence of the second charge is `V_(b)=K_(e)(q_(b))/(b)=(9xx10^(9))((4xx10^(-6)))/((3))=1.20xx10^(4)`V. The net potential of the third charge `V_(c)` is simply the algebraic sum of the potentials due to the OTHERS two CHARGES taken in isolation . Thus `V_(c)=V_(a)+V_(b)=1.20xx10^(3)V` |
