Show that the radius of the orbit in hydrogen atom varies as n^(2), where it is the principal quantum number of the atom.

Answer»

Solution :We know that when an electron revolves in a stable orbit, the centripetal force is provided by electrostatic force of attraction acting on it due to a proton present in the nucleus.
`THEREFORE""(m v_(n)^(2))/(r_(n)) = (1)/(4pi in_(0)) .(E^(2))/(r_(n)^(2))or v_(n) = (nh)/( 2pi m r_(n))"".....(i)`
andfromBohr.s quantum condition , we have .
`m v_(n) r_(n) =(n h)/(2 pi) or v_(n) =(n h)/( n h)/(4 pi in_(0) m r_(n))""........(ii) `
SQUARING(ii) and then equatingit with (i) , we get .
`(n^(2)h^(2))/(4 pi^(2) m^(2) r_(n)^(2)) = (e^(2))/(4 pi in_(0) m.r_(n))rArrr_(n) = (n^(2) h^(2))/(4pi^(2) m^(2)) xx (4 pi in_(0) m)/(e^(2)) = ( in_(0)h^(2))/( pi m e^(2)) = n^(2)`
In stable orbitof hydrogen atom n = 1and then radiusof 1ST orbitis CALLED Bohr.sradius`a_(0)` . Obviously ` a_(0)= (in_(0) h^(2))/(pi m e^(2))`

A massive horizontal platform is moving horizontally with a constant acceleration of 10 m//s^(2) as shown in the figure. A particle P of mass m=1kg is kept at rest at the smooth surface as shown in the figure. The particle is hinged at O with the help of a massless rod OP of length 0.9 m. Hinge O is fixed on the platform and the rod can freely rotate about point O. Now the particle P is imparted a velocity in the opposite direction of the platform's acceleration such that it is just able to complete the circular motion about point O. Then the maximum tension appearing in the rod during the motion is 10n. Find the value of n.

Answer»

<P>

SOLUTION :Required velocity of `P` for completing the cycle at the instant, when `OP` is along the direction of motion of PLATFORM is
`v_(min)=sqrt(4xx10xx0.9)=6m//s`
So `T-ma=(mv_(min)^(2))/(L)`
`T=10+((1)36)/(0.9)=10+40=50N`

11 kW of electric power can be transmitted to a distant station at (i) 220 V or (ii) 22,000 V. Which of the two modes of transmission should be preferred and why ? Support your answer with possible calculations.

Answer»

Solution : We shall prefer transmission of power to a distant STATION at 22,000 V in order to minimise power loss due to Joule.s heating during transmission. To explain it, let US PRESUME that resistance of transmission line be `R OMEGA`.
When 11 kW (or `11 xx 10^(3)` W) power is transmitted at 220 V, line current
`I = P/V = (11 xx 10^(3))/220 = 50 A`
and power loss `=I^(2)R = (50)^(2) R = 2500 RW`
However, when same power is transmitted at 22,000 V, the line current
`I. = P/(V.) = (11 xx 10^(3))/(22,000) = 1/2 A = 0.5 A`
Hence, power ions now `=I^(2) R = (0.5)^(2) xx R = 0.25 R W`.
From above calculations, it is self-evident that the power loss in second option is negligible and THEREFORE we prefer this mode of power transmission.

Suppose India a target of producing by 2020 AD, 2,00,000 MW of electric power, ten percent of which was to be obtained from nuclear power plants. Suppose we are given that, on an average, the efficiency of utilization i.e. conversion to electric energy. of thermal energy produced in a reactor was 25%. How much amount of fissionable uranium would our country need per year by 2020 ? Take the heat energy per fission of .^(235)U to be about 200 MeV.

Answer»

Solution :Total targeted power `= 2xx10^(5)MW`
Total Nuclear power = 10% of `2xx10^(5)MW`
`= 2xx10^(4)MW`
Energy produced in fission = 200 MeV
EFFECIENCY of power plant = 25%
`therefore` Energy converted into electrical energy per fission `= (25)/(100)xx200=50 MeV`
`= 50xx1.6xx10^(-13)` Joule.
Total electrical energy to be produced
`= 2xx10^(4)MW = 2xx10^(4)xx10^(6)` Watt
`= 2xx10^(10)` Joule/Sec
`= 2xx10^(10)xx60xx60xx24xx365` Joule/year
No. of FISSIONS in one year
`= (2xx10^(10)xx60xx60xx24xx365)/(50xx1.6xx10^(-13))`
`=2xx(36xx24xx365)/(8)xx10^(24)`
Mass of `6.023xx10^(23)` ATOMS of `U^(235)= 235 gm = 235xx10^(-3)kg`
Mass of `(2xx36xx24xx365)/(8)xx10^(24)` atoms
`= (235xx10^(-3))/(6.023xx10^(23))xx(2xx36xx24xx365xx20^(24))/(8)`
`= 3.08xx10^(4)` Kg.
Hence mass of Uranium needed per year
`= 3.08xx10^(4) Kg`.

The power of a lens is +2D. a . What do you mean by this ? b How is power related to its focal length ?

Answer»

<P>

Solution :a. Power P = + 2D `therefore 2 = (1)/(f_((m)) ) ,"" therefore f_((m)) = (1)/(2) = 0.5 ` m
it MEANS power of a LENS is + 2 dioptres and the lens is convex lens.
b. Power = `(1)/("FOCAL length (in metre)")`
`P = (1)/(f_((m))) `

The ratio of longest wavelength and the shortest wavelength as observed in the five spectral series of emission spectrum of hydrogen is:

Answer»

`4/3`
`(525)/(376)`
25
`(900)/(11)`

Solution :For Lyman series
`1/lambda =R [1/1^(2)-1/n^(2)]`
`lambda " SHORTEST" =1/R" as n="oo`
For Pfund SEREIS `1/lambda =R[1/5^(2)-1/n^(2)]`
`((1)/(lambda_("longest")))=R/(25)-(R)/(36)`
As n=6
`(lambda_("longest"))/(lambda_("shortest"))=(25 xx 36)/(11R) xx R=(900)/(11)`
