Question
Define volume density of charge and write its S.I. unit ?

Answer

Volume charge density: When the charge density is throughout the volume of a body, then the charge per unit volume is called volume charge density and it is represented by
$\rho=\frac{q}{V}$
Hence the unit of $\rho$ is $C/m^{3}$

Ultraviolet radiations of different frequencies $ν_1$ and $ν_2,$ are incident on two photosensitive materials having work functions $W_1$ and $W_2 \ (W_1 > W_2)$ respectively.

Magnetic force is always normal to the velocity of a charge and therefore does no work. An iron nail held near a magnet, when released, increases its kinetic energy as it moves to cling to the magnet. What agency is responsible for this increase in kinetic energy if not the magnetic field?
A driver takes $0.20s$ to apply the brakes after he sees a need for it. This is called the reaction time of the driver. If he is driving a car at a speed of $54\ km/h$ and the brakes cause a deceleration of $6.0m/s^2,$ find the distance travelled by the car after he sees the need to put the brakes on.

Unpolarised light is passed through a polaroid $P_1.$ When this polarised beam passes through another polaroid $P_2$ and if the pass axis of $P_2$ makes angle $\theta$ with the pass axis of $P_1,$ then write the expression for the polarised beam passing through $P_2.$ Draw a plot showing the variation of intensity when $\theta$ varies from $0$ to $2\pi.$
