Find the maximum compression in the spring. Stiffness of the spring is K. Neglect any friction and deformation in the spring during collision. |
|
Answer» Solution :SINCE no external force is associated with the system `(M+M+m)` conservation of horizontal MOMENTUM of the system yields. `mV_(0)=(M+m)v_(1)=(2M+m)v_(2)` Where `v_(1)=` velocity of (M+m) just after the impact & `v_(2)=` velocity of (M+M+m) just of the maximum compression of the SPRING. `RARR v_(1)=(mv_(0))/(M+m) & V_(2)=(mv_(0))/(2M+m)` The loss of K.E. between the two portion (a) and (b) is given as, `Delta KE=(1)/(2)(M+m)v_(1)^(2)-(1)/(2)(2M+m)v_(2)^(2)` ![]() `rArr Delta KE=(m^(2)v_(0)^(2))/(2)[(1)/((M+m))-(1)/((2M+m))]=(m^(2)Mv_(0)^(2))/(2(M+m)(2M+m))` From conservation of mechanical energy `rArr (1)/(2)kx^(2)=(m^(2)Mv_(0)^(2))/(2(M+m)(2M+m))` `rArr x = SQRT((m^(2)Mv_(0)^(2))/(2k(M+m)(2M+m)))=mv_(0)sqrt((M)/(2k(M+m)(2M+m)))` |

An equilateral prism is kept in air and for a particular ray angle of minimum deviation is38^@. If the prism is immersed in water theangle of minimum deviation =........ Refractive index of water is 1.33 |
|
Answer» SOLUTION :`RARR(n_g)/(n_a) = (sin""((60 + 38)/(20))^(@))/(sin 30^@)` Taking `n_a = 1 , n_g = (sin 49^@)/(sin 30^@) = 1.509` When prism is immersed in water, `n_(g)/(n_w) = (sin""((60 + delta_m)/(2)))/(sin 30^@)` But `n_w = 1.33` `therefore (1.509)/(1.33)=sin((60 + delta_m)/(2))^@/0.5` `thereforesin ((60 + delta_m)/(2))^@ = (0.5 xx 1509)/(1.33) = 0.5673` `therefore (60 + delta_m)/(2) = 34^@ 36.` `thereforedelta_m = 9^@ 12.` |

Discuss the diffraction at a grating and obtain the condition for the n^(th) maximum. |
|
Answer» Solution :A plane transmission grating is reperented by AB. Let a plane wavefront of monochromatic light with wavelenght `LAMBDA` be incident normally on the grating. As the slits SIZE is comparable to that of wavelenght, the incident light diffracts at the grating. A diffraction patteern is obtained on the screen when the diffracted waves are focused on a screen using a convex lens. Let US consider a point P at an angle `theta` with the normal drwan from the center of the gratng t the screen. The path difference `delta` between the diffracted waves from one pair of corresponding points is, `delta = (a + b) sin theta` This path difference is the same for any pair of corresponding points. The points P will be bright, when `delta = m lambda` where m = 0,1,2,3 Combining the above two equaitons, we get, `(a + b) sin theta = m lambda` Here, m is called order of diffraction. Condition for zero maximum, m = 0 For `(a + b) sin theta = 0`. the position, `theta = 0, sin 0 = 0 and m = 0`. This is called zero order diffraction or central maximum. Conditionfor second order maximum, m = 1, If `(a + b) sin thata_(1) = lambda`, the diffracted light MEET at an angle `theta_(1)` to the incidet direction and the first order maximum is obtained. Condition for second order maximum, m = 2 Similarly, `(a + b) sin theta_(2) = 2 lambda` forms the second order maximum at the angula positio `theta_(2)`. Condition for higher order maximum On EITHER side of central maxima different higher orders of diffraction maxima are formed at different angular position. It we take, `N = (1)/(a + b)` Then, N gives the number of grating elements or rulings drawn per unit width of the grating. Normally, this number N is specified on the grating itselt. Now, the equation becomes, `(1)/(N)sintheta=mlambda(or)sintheta=Nmlambda`

What is the distance on screen C in Fig. 35-11a between adjacent maxima near the center of the interference pat- tern? The wavelength lambda of the light is 546 nm, the slit separation d is 0.12 mm, and the slit-screen separation D is 55 cm. Assume that theta in Fig. 35-11 is small enough to permit use of the approximations sin theta ~~ tan theta ~~ theta, in which theta is expressed in radian measure. |
|
Answer» Solution :KEY IDEAS (1) First, let us pick a maximum with a low value of m to ensure that it is near the center of the pattern. Then, from the GEOMETRY of Fig. 35-11a, the maximum.s vertical distance `y_(m)` from the center of the pattern is related to its angle `theta` from the central axis by `tan theta ~~ theta =(y_(m))/(D)` (2) From Eq. 35-14, this angle o for the mth maximum is given by `sin theta ~~ theta =(m lambda)/(d)` Calculations: If we equate our two expressions for angle `theta` and then solve for `y_(m)`, we find `y_(m)=(m lambda D)/(d)""(35-20)` For the next maximum as we move away from the pattern.s center, we have `y_(m+1)=((m+1)lambda D)/(d)""(35-21)` We find the distance between these adjacent maxima by subtracting Eq. 35-20 from Eq. 35-21: `Delta y=y_(m+1)-y_(m)=(lambda D)/(d)` `=((546 xx 10^(-9) m)(55 xx 10^(-2) m))/(0.12 xx 10^(-3)m)` `= 2.50 xx 10^(-3) m ~~ 2.6 mm`. (ANSWER) As long as d and in Fig. 35-11a are SMALL, the separation of the interference fringes is independent of m, that is, the fringes are evenly spaced. |

Write the advantages and disadvantages of robotic. |
|
Answer» SOLUTION :(i) Advantages of Robotics: • The robots are much cheaper than humans. Robots never get tired like humans. It can work for `24xx7`. Hence absenteeism in work place can be REDUCED. • Robots are more precise and error free in performing the task. (ii) Disadvantages of Robotics: • Robots have no sense of emotions or conscience. • They lack empathy and hence create an emotionless WORKPLACE. • If ultimately robots would do all the work, and the humans will just sit and monitor them, health HAZARDS will increase rapidly. |

Explain the Motion of a charged particle in a uniform magnetic field. |
|
Answer» Solution :Consider a charged particle of charge q having mass m enters into a region of uniform magnetic field `vecB ` with VELOCITY `vecv` such that velocity is perpendicular to the magnetic field . As soon as the particle enters into the field , Lorentz force acts on it in a direction perpendicular to both magnetic field `vecB` and velocity `vecv`. `vecB` in As a result, the charged particle moves in a circular orbit as shown in Figure . The Lorentz force on the charged particle is given by ` vecf = q( vecv xx vecB) ` Since Lorentz force aloneacts on the particle , the magnitude of the net force on the particle is ` sum_(i) F_(i) = F_(m) = q v B ` This Lorentz force acts as centripetal force for the particle to EXECUTE cirtular motion. Therefore, ` qvB = m v^(2)/r` The radius of the circular path is ` r = (mv)/(qB) = p/(qB) ` .......(1) where ` p = mv` is the magnitude of the LINEAR momentum of the particle. Let T be the time taken by the particle to finish one complete circular motion then ` T = (2 pi r)/ v` ......(2) Hence SUBSTITUTING (1) in (2) , we get ` T = (2pi m ) /( q B ) ` .....(3) Equation (3) is called the cyclotron period . The reciprocal of time period is the frequency f, which is ` f = 1/T` ` f = (qB)/(2 pi m) ` ......(4) In terms of angular frequency `omega`, ` omega = 2 pi f = q/m B` ......(5) Equation (4) and equation (5) are called as cyclotron frequency or gyrofrequency . From equations, we infer that time period and frequency depend only on charge - to - mass ratio ( specific charge ) but not velocityor the radius of the circular path . |

How is Eddy current produced? How do they flow in a conductor ? |
| Answer» Solution :EVEN for a conductor in the form of a sheet or plate, an emf is induced when magnetic flux linked with it changes। But the difference is that there is no definite loop or path for induced current to flow away। As a result, the induced currents flow in concentric circular paths। As these ELECTRIC currents resemble EDDIES of water, these are KNOWN as Eddy currents। They are also CALLED Foucault currents. | |

Briefly explain the nature of light. |
|
Answer» Solution :We have learnt that wave nature of light explains PHENOMENA such as interference, diffraction and polarization. Certain phenomena like black body radiation, photoelectric effect can be explained by assigning particle nature to light. Therefore, both theories have enough experimental evidences. In the past, many scientific theories have been either revised or discarded when they contradicted with new experimental results. Here, two different theories are needed to ANSWER the question : what is nature of light ? It is therefore concluded that light possesses DUAL nature, that of both particle and wave. It behaves like a wave at some circumstances and it behaves like a particle at some other circumstances. In other words, light behaves as a wave during its propagation and behaves as a particle during its interaction with matter. Both theories are NECESSARY for complete description of physical phenomena. Hence, the wave nature and QUANTUM nature complement each other. |
