Write the following statements in a sequential order to find the depth of the ocean bed by the using sonar . (A) The depth of the ocean bed can be found by d = (vt)/(2). (B) At the bottom of a ship two devices , one is transmitter which products ultrasonics and a receiver for the detection of the reflected ultrasonics from the ocean bed are fixed . (C) The velocity fo ultrasonics in ocean water is 'v' and the time taken to receive the reflected ultrasonics from the ocean bed be 'f'. (D) If the depth of ocean bed is 'd' , then v = (d + d)/(t) = (2d)/(t). |
|
Answer» a b C d The distance travelled by sound `= 2 XX` (depth of the ocean bed). Speed `= (2d)/(t) to (a)` `d = (1500 xx t)/(2) = (1500 xx 4)/(2) = 3000 m = 3 km` So, the depth of the ocean bed, (d) = 3 km. |

A man is standing not exactly at the exactly at the centre, in between two parallel walls separated by a distance 990 m. He fires a gun and hears the first echo after 2 s, the time taken to hear 3rd echo after firing is ______ s. (take velocity of sound in air is 330 ms^(-1)) |
|
Answer» 5 `d = v xx t = 330 xx 1 = 330 m.` So, the distance between the man and 2ND wall is `990 - 330 = 660 m.` So, TIME taken for 2nd echo time `= ("distance")/("velocity") = (2 xx 660)/(330) = 4 s` The 3rd and 4th echo reach at the same time. Time taken for 3rd echo = time taken to hear the first echo + time taken to hear the 3rd echo `= 2 + (2 xx 660)/(330) = 2 + 2 xx 2 = 6 s.` |

A and B are two identical conducting rods. A is given positive charge and B is connectedto a cell as shown in the figure. Will there be any change in the electrostatic force between A and B if the switch is closed ? |
| Answer» Solution :There will be no electrostatic FORCE between A and B. When switch is closed, electric current passes through B. The quantity of charge entering B is equal to the quanity of chargeleaving B making it electrically neutral . And as charges in B are in motion, ATTRACTION between A and B of electrostatic INDUCTION is negligible. | |

Do all bulbs we use work on the principle of heating effects of electric current ? Discuss. |
| Answer» Solution :No, FILAMENT bulbs we use work on heatingeffect of electric current . In these bulbs, in ADDITION to light,LOT unwanted heat is alsogenerated and this results in thewastage of electricity. We have different types of bulbs, known as fluoresent tubelights which work on a different principle. By using them we can reduce wastage of current. COMPACT fluorescentlamps (CFI). also reduce wastage can be fixed in the ordinary bulbs holders. | |
