Answer

Car Model
Driver X
Reaction time 0.25s
Driver Y
Reaction time 0.35s
$A ($deceleration on hard braking $= 6.0m/s^2)$
Speed = 54km/h
Braking distance
a = 19m
Total stopping distance
b = 22m
Speed = 72km/h
Braking distance
c = 33m
Total stopping distance
d = 39m
$B ($deceleration on hard braking $= 7.5m/s^2)$
Speed = 54km/h
Breaking distance
e = 15m
Total stopping distance
f = 18m
Speed 72km/h
Braking distance
g = 27m
Total stopping distance
h = 33m
$\text{a}=\frac{0^2-15^2}{2(-6)}=19\text{m}$
So, $b = 0.2 × 15 + 19 = 33m$
Similarly other can be calculated.
Braking distance: Distance travelled when brakes are applied.
Total stopping distance = Braking distance + distance travelled in reaction time.

A tangent galvanometer shows a deflection of 45° when 10mA of current is passed through it. If the horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field is $B_H = 3.6\times 10^{-5} T$ and radius of the coil is 10cm, find the number of turns in the coil.
To keep valuable instruments away from the earth's magnetic field, they are enclosed in iron boxes. Explain.
For a circular coil of radius R and N turns carrying current I, the magnitude of the magnetic field at a point on its axis at a distance x from its centre is given by,
$\text{B}=\frac{\mu_{0}\text{IR}^{2}\text{N}}{2(\text{x}^{2}+\text{R}^{2})^{\frac{3}{2}}}$
  1. Show that this reduces to the familiar result for field at the centre of the coil.
  2. Consider two parallel co-axial circular coils of equal radius R, and number of turns N, carrying equal currents in the same direction, and separated by a distance R. Show that the field on the axis around the mid-point between the coils is uniform over a distance that is small as compared to R, and is given by,$\text{B}=0.72\frac{\mu_{0}\text{NI}}{\text{R}}$, approximately.

A dielectric slab is a substance which does not allow the flow of charges through it but permits them to exert electrostatic forces on one another. When a dielectric slab is placed between the plates, the field $E_0$ polarises the dielectric. This induces charge $-Q_P$ on the upper surface and $+ Q_P$ on the lower surface of the dielectric. These induced charges set up a field $E_P$ inside the dielectric in the opposite direction of $\vec{\text{E}_0}$ as shown.

The simplest and the most widely used capacitor is the parallel plate capacitor. It consists of two large plane parallel conducting plates, separated by a small distance. In the outer regions above the upper plate and below the lower plate, the electric fields due to the two charged plates cancel out. The net field is zero. In the inner region between the two capacitor plates, the electric fields due to the two charged plates add up. The net field is $\frac{\sigma}{\in_0}.$

For a uniform electric field, potential difference between the plates = Electric field x distance between the plates. Capacitance of the parallel plate capacitor is the charge required to supplied to either of the conductors of the capacitor so as to increase the potential difference between then by unit amount.
