The mass of the nucleus is less than the sum of the masses of the nucleons forming it, why? |
| Answer» Solution :In the formation of the nucleus, the neutrons and protons have to collect in a very small SPACE whos size of the order of `10^(-15)m`. The energy required for this purpose is spent by the nucleons at the cost of their MASSES. As a result of this, the mass of the nucleus formed becomes LESS than the sum of the masses of the INDIVIDUAL nucleons. | |

Explain Curie's law of magnetism. |
|
Answer» SOLUTION :When temperature is increased, thermal vibration will upset the alignment of MAGNETIC dipole moments. Therefore, the magnetic susceptibility decreases with increase in temperature. In many cases. The suscptibility of the MATERIALS is `X_(m) prop (L)/(T) "or" X_(m) = ( C)/(T)` this RELATION is called curie.s law. |

Three capacitors each of capacitance 9 pF are connected in series. (a) What is the total capacitance of the combination ? (b) What is the potential difference across each capacitor if the combination is connected to a 120 V supply ? |
|
Answer» SOLUTION :Here `C_1 = C_2 = C_3 = 9 pF` (a)In SERIES combination the resultant capacitance `1/C= 1/C_1+ 1/C_2 + 1/C_3= 1/9 + 1/9 + 1/9 = 1/3 rArrC = 3pF= 3xx 10^(-12) F`. (b) As total POTENTIAL difference V = 120 V `V_1+ V_2 + V_3 = 120V` As all the 3 CAPACITORS are identical, hence `V_1 = V_2= V_3= V/3 = 120/3= 40V` |
