MCQ
A plane electromagnetic wave propagating in $\mathrm{x}$-direction is described by

$\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{y}}=\left(200\  \mathrm{Vm}^{-1}\right) \sin \left[1.5 \times 10^7 \mathrm{t}-0.05\  \mathrm{x}\right] \text {; }$

The intensity of the wave is :(Use $\epsilon_0=8.85 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{C}^2 \mathrm{~N}^{-1} \mathrm{~m}^{-2}$ )

  • A
     $35.4 \ \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}$
  • $53.1 \ \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}$
  • C
     $26.6 \ \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}$
  • D
     $106.2 \ \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$53.1 \ \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}$
b
$ \mathrm{I}=\frac{1}{2} \varepsilon_0 \mathrm{E}_0^2 \times \mathrm{c} $

$ \mathrm{I}=\frac{1}{2} \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12} \times 4 \times 10^4 \times 3 \times 10^8 $

$ \mathrm{I}=53.1 \mathrm{~W} / \mathrm{m}^2$

A hot air balloon is carrying some passengers, and a few sandbags of mass $1 kg$ each so that its total mass is $480 kg$. Its effective volume giving the balloon its buoyancy is $V$. The balloon is floating at an equilibrium height of $100 m$. When $N$ number of sandbags are thrown out, the balloon rises to a new equilibrium height close to $150 m$ with its volume $V$ remaining unchanged. If the variation of the density of air with height $h$ from the ground is $\rho(h)=\rho_0 e^{-\frac{h}{h_0}}$, where $\rho_0=1.25 kg m ^{-3}$ and $h _0=6000 m$, the value of $N$ is. . . . .
