Explain three reasons of accidents that may be caused in our household circuits usingelectricity. Describe the role of the following safety devices in preventing these accidents.Explain.(1) Electrical fuse (i) Earthing of electrical appliance

Answer»

Electric shock: occurs when an extremity such as a finger, hand, or arm is placed across an electric current. The body is a good conductor of electricity because it is made up of mostly water. Electric shock can be mild, moderate, or severe. A mild electric shock leaves a slight tingling sensation. The moderate electric shock causes the muscles to contract and it may be difficult to pull away from the electric current. The severe electric shock causes respiratory or heart failure.Electrical burn: occurs when severe electric shock causes tissue to burn. Electrical burns can be external or internal. Internal burns occur when the electric current takes a path through bone and burns deep tissue.Electrical fires: occur when electric current ignites flammable materials. Electrical fires are extremely dangerous because putting them out with water may expose a person to a higher risk of electric shock.

Electrical accidents can occur due to a number of factors, including:Old wiringElectric cords that run under carpetingFlammable materials left near exposed electrical wiring in the workplaceLoose connectorsPoor wiring: substandard wiring can lead to electrical fires and electric shockLack of preventive devices such as ground fault circuit interrupters (a device that monitors and shuts off electric current in the event that the flow fluctuates), three-pronged outlets, and polarized plugs

(i) The fuse breaks the circuit if a fault in an appliance causes too much current flow. This protects the wiring and the appliance if something goes wrong. The fuse contains a piece of wire that melts easily. If the current going through the fuse is too great, the wire heats up until it melts and breaks the circuit.

(ii) Earthing System or Grounding System in an electrical network work as a safety measure to protect human life as well as equipment, the main objective of the Earthing system is to provide an alternative path for dangerous currents to flow so that accidents due to electric shock and damage to the equipment can be avoided.

A magician during a show dips a glass lens with nof same refractive index. (i) Why does the lens seem to disappear? (ii) Whatis the power of the lens inside the liquid?C1.47 in a trough of liquid [2]11) V1、

Answer»

According to lens maker's formula, where n= n2/n1

if n2=n1, 1/f = 0 or f =

this means that when n1=n2, the lens in liquid will act like a plane sheet of glass. Therefore when the refractive index(n1) of the liquid is equal to the refractive index(n2) of the lens material, the lens will disappear.

therefore, n1=n2=1.47

The liquid is not water because refractive inde of water is 1.33

6 N, 6 N and、72 N actcorner of a cube along three sides as shown in the5.Three forces of magnitudesat afigure given below. Resultant of these forces is72 N6 NO-(1) 12 N angle OB 2) 18 N along OA(3) 18 N along OC (4) 12 N along OE

Answer»

The resultant of lower 6N and 6N , will be √6²+6² = 6√2N = √72N , and the direction will be along OB

now the resultant of √72N and 6√2N(=√72N) , will be along OE... as both the vectors are of same magnitude..

so, the resultant will be √(√72)²+(√72)² = √144 = 12N

so option D.

1.A bar magnet, when suspended freely, always points in the direction:

Answer»

Afreely suspended magnetwill also point towards south. The south pole of amagnet barpoints towards north because themagneticfield around the earth happens to have its north pole towards north.

1168.

A freely suspended magnet always points along north - south direction. Why?

Answer»

A FREELY SUSPENDED MAGNET POINTS IN THE NORTH SOUTH DIRECTION AS THE NORTH POLE OF THE EARTH ATTRACTS THE SOUTH POLE OF THE MAGNET. ON THE OTHER HAND SOUTH POLE OF THE EARTH ATTRACTS THE NORTH POLE OF THE MAGNET.SO A FREELY SUSPENDED MAGNET ALWAYS POINTS IN THE NORTH SOUTH DIRECTION.

1169.

5. A freely suspended current carrying coil is at stable equilibrium in a uniform magnetic field. Whatwill be the angle made by the plane of the coil with the direction of the field?

Answer»

When a flat current carrying coil is placed in uniform magnetic field such that dipole moment of coil is antiparallel to manetic field, then coil is in state of unstable equilibrium.

If we disturb the coil so that direction of dipole moment of coil is even slightly changed, the coil will flip by 180 degree.

You can also use expression for potential energy to prove the same mathematically.

U = - pB cos(pB)

for (pB) = 180, cos(pB) = -1

thus U = pB

i.e. Maximum energy state, thus unstable equilibrium.

7. A hammer of mass 500 g, moving at 50 ms1, strikes anail. The nail stops the hammer in a very short time of0.01 s. What is the force of the nail on the hammer?unctio

Answer»

M = 500g = 0.5 kg

v = 0 m/s

u = 50 m/s

t = 0.01 s

F = m(v-u) / tF = 0.5 (50-0) / 0.01F = 0.5 x 50 x 100 / 1F = 2500 N

Force of nail = 2500 N

A solid object of mass 50 g and volume 100 cm is put in water. What will be its weightwhen it is in water?

Answer»

Mass of object = 50g

Volume of object = 100 cm^3

Therefore, Density of object = Mass/Volume = 50/100 = 0.5g/cm3

Density of water = 1 g/cm^3

Since the density of the object is less than the density of water, the buoyant force acting on the object will be more than its weight acting downwards.

Hence,the object will float in water.

it's asked about the weight of the object when immersed in water...

explain 3 characteristics of sound with the help of examples.

Answer»

Characteristics of SoundThere are three characteristics of sound. 1.Loudness2.Pitch3.Quality/timbre

LoudnessIt is the characteristic of the sound by which a loud sound can be distinguished from a soft sound. Loudness depends on the intensity of sound near the ear. It is the measure of ear's response to the vibration.

PitchPitch of a sound depends upon the frequency of the sound recorded by the human. If the frequency of a vibrating object is low then the pitch of sound is said to be low and vice versa

Quality/Tibre It is that characteristic if sound which enables us to distinguish between the sounds if same loudness and pitch. Quality of a sound depends on wave form of the sound.
