A disc of mass m is moving with constant speed v_(0) on a smooth horizontal table. Another disc of mass M is placed on the table at rest as shown in the figure. If the collision is elastic, find the velocity of the disc after collision. Both disc lie on the same horizontal plane of the table.

Answer»

Solution :`sin THETA = (d)/(r+R)`

For mass m :
Momentum before impact

Momentum after impact

For mass M :
Momentum before impact = 0
Momentum after impact

Net impulse on the system = 0
Momentum of the system is conserved.
`mv_(0) COS theta + 0=mv_(1)+Mv_(3)` ....(i)
`mv_(0)sin theta + 0 = mv_(2)+Mv_(4)` ....(ii)
INDIVIDUALLY for mass m and M, the impulse along the tangent = 0
`therefore` For mass `m, mv_(0) sin theta = mv_(2)`....(iii)
For mass M,`0 = Mv_(4)` .... (iv)
As the collision is elastic
`E=-(v_(3)-v_(1))/(0-v_(0)cos theta)=1`.
`v_(3)-v_(1)=v_(0)cos theta` ....(v)
SOLVING equations (i) through (v)
`v_(2)=v_(0)sin theta,"" v_(4)=0`
`v_(3)=(2mv_(0)cos theta)/(m+M), v_(1)=((m-M)/(m+M))v_(0)cos theta`
It can be verified that, `(1)/(2)mv_(0)^(2)=(1)/(2)m(v_(1)^(2)+v_(2)^(2))+(1)/(2)M(v_(3)^(2)+v_(4)^(2))`
`rArr`The kinetic energy is conserved in an elastic impact.
Special case : If m =M
`v_(1)=0, v_(0) sin theta`
`v_(3)=v_(0)cos theta, v_(4)=0`.
Note : The impulse along the common tangent during an impact may not be always negligible. For example, when normal reaction is impulsive and the effect of friction is to tbe considered.

Derive an expression for the torque acting or a current carrying loop which subtends angle with uniform magnetic field.

Answer»

Solution :1. As shown in figure plane ABCD is not along the magnetic field but makes an angle with it.

2. We take the angle between the field and the normal to the coil to be angle `theta`.
3. The forces on the arms BC and DA are equal, opposite and act along the axis of the coil, which connects the centres of mass of BC and DA. Being collinear along the axis they cancel each other, resulting in no net force or torque.
4. The forces on arms AB and CD are `vecF_(1)andvecF_(2)` respectively.
They too are equal and opposite with magnitude `F_(1)=F_(2)=IbB`.

5. In figure is a VIEW of the arrangement from the AD and it illustrates these two forces constituting a couple. The magnitude of the torque on the loop is,
`TAU=tau_(1)+tau_(2)`
`tau=F_(1)(a/2sintheta)+F_(2)(a/2sintheta)`
`[becausetau=("magnitude of force")xx("perpendicular distance from reference points")]`
`tau=(IbB)(a/2sintheta)+(IbB)(a/2sintheta)`
`tau=I(ab)Bsintheta`
`tau=IABsintheta""...(1)`
`vectau=IvecAxxvecB""...(2)`
6. As `thetato0`, the perpendicular distance between the forces of the couple also approaches zero. This makes the forces collinear and the net force and torque zero.
7. But, magnetic moment of the current loop as,
`vecm=IvecA""...(3)`
8. Where the direction of the area vector `vecA` is GIVEN by the right hand thumb rule and is directed into the plane of the paper.
9. Angle between `vecmandvecB" is "theta`, so from equation (2), (3) we can write,
`vectau=vecmxxvecB""...(4)`
10. For N NUMBER of turns in coil,
`vectau=NIvecAxxvecB`
= NIAB, where `vecm=NIvecA`
(This equation is analogous to the electrostatic case, `vectau=vecp_(e)xxvecE`)

Explain the working of a n-p-n transistor in CE mode as an amplifier.

Answer»

SOLUTION :(1) COLLECTOR end is reverse biased and base - emitter ends forward biased.
(2) A small variation in the base current produces a large variation in the collector current with a phase DIFFERENCE of `180^@` between them, without ALTERING the input frequency. This is the basis of an amplifier circuit.

Power gain of the amplifier in CE mode is given by,

Energy released per fission of a nucleus is of the order of 200 MeV whereas that per fusion is of the order of 10 MeV. But a fusion bomb (Hydrogen bomb) is said to be more powerful than a fission bomb. Explain why?

Answer»

Solution :(i) Energy produced per fusion is LESS but the number of nuclei per unit mass is larger on ACCOUNT of smaller mass number.
(II) So, energy released per unit mass is GREATER. On the other hand, the fissionable materials have HIGH atomic weight.
(iii) The number of fission nuclei per unit mass is less. So, energy released is less.
