MCQ
For protecting a sensitive equipment from external magnetic field, it should be:
  • Placed inside an iron can.
  • B
    Placed inside an aluminium can.
  • C
    Surrounded with fine copper sheet.
  • D
    Wrapped with insulation around it when passing current through it.

Answer

Correct option: A.
Placed inside an iron can.

Iron is a ferromagnetic substance, so there are no magnetic lines of force inside it. So to protect the sensitive equipment from external magnetic field, it should be placed inside an iron can.

In a two slit experiment with monochromatic light fringes are obtained on a screen placed at some distance from the sits. If the screen is moved by $5 \times {10^{ - 2}}m$ towards the slits, the change in fringe width is $3 \times {10^{ - 5}}m$. If separation between the slits is ${10^{ - 3}}m$, the wavelength of light used is.........$\mathop A\limits^o $

Nearly $10 \%$ of the power of a $110\,W$ light bulb is converted to visible radiation. The change in average intensities of visible radiation, at a distance of $1\, m$ from the bulb to a distance of $5\,m$ is $a \times 10^{-2}\,W / m ^{2}$. The value of ' $a$ ' will be.
If the frequency of $EM$ radiations is halved then the energy of $EM$ radiation will become:
Assertion : A white source of light during interference forms only white and black fringes.

Reason : Width of fringe is inversely proportional to the wavelength of the light used.
