Question
Current I flow through two parallel straight wires in the same direction/The wires are at a distance 2r from each other. What is the intensity of magnetic field atw the midpoint between the two wires?

Answer

Total magnetic field B = 0 as magnetic fields produced by two wires are equal and mutually opposite.

When a p-type impurity is doped in a semiconductor, a large number of holes are created. This does not make the semiconductor charged. But when holes diffluse from the p-side to the n-side in a p-n junction, the n-side gets positively charged. Explain.
Four 2cm × 2cm × 2cm cubes of ice are taken out from a refrigerator and are put in 200ml of a drink at 10°C.
  1. Find the temperature of the drink when thermal equilibrium is attained in it.
  2. If the ice cubes do not melt completely, find the amount melted. Assume that no heat is lost to the outside of the drink and that the container has negligible heat capacity. Density of ice = 900kg-m-3, density of the drink = 1000kg-m-3, specific heat capacity of the drink = 4200Jkg-1-K-1, latent heat of fusion of ice = 3.4 × 105J-kg-1.
An experimenter measures the length of a rod. Initially the experimenter and the rod are at rest with respect to the lab. Consider the following statements:
  1. If the rod starts moving parallel to its length but the observer stays at rest, the measured length will be reduced.
  2. If the rod stays at rest but the observer starts moving parallel to the measured length of the rod, the length will be reduced.
