Define the absorption transition and emission transition.
✓
Answer
When the electrons in the ground state to reach higher energy states is called absorption transition and moving of electrons from lower energy levels to higher energy levels is called emission transition.

Define electric flux. Write its S.I. units. A spherical rubber balloon carries a charge that is uniformly distributed over its surface. As the balloon is blown up and increases in size, how does the total electric flux coming out of the surface change? Give reason.
Two identical coils, radius of each is 8 cm and number of turns is 100 are coaxial and their centers are 12 cm apart. If current of 1 A flows in each coil in the same direction, then calculate the magnetic field at the midpoint on the axial line.
The north pole of a magnet is brought down along the axis of a horizontal circular coil. As a result, the flux through the coil changes from 0.35 weber to 0.86 weber in an interval of half a second.

Current is allowed to flow in a metallic wire at a constant potential difference. When the wire becomes hot, cold water is poured on half of its portion. By doing so, its other half portion becomes still more hot. Explain its reason.
