Question
The system containing the rails and the wire of the previous problem is kept vertically in a uniform horizontal magnetic field B that is perpendicular to the plane of the rails (figure). It is found that the wire stays in equilibrium. If the wire ab is replaced by another wire of double its mass, how long will it take in falling through a distance equal to its length?

✓

Answer

Given Blv = mg …(1)

When wire is replaced we have

2mg - Blv = 2ma [where a → acceleration]

$\Rightarrow\text{a}=\frac{2\text{mg}-\text{Blv}}{2\text{m}}$

Now, $\text{s}=\text{ut}+\frac{1}{2}\text{at}^2$

$\Rightarrow\text{l}=\frac{1}{2}\times\frac{2\text{mg}-\text{Blv}}{2\text{m}}\times\text{t}^2 \ \big[\therefore \ \text{s}=\text{l}\big]$

$\Rightarrow\text{t}=\sqrt{\frac{4\text{ml}}{2\text{mg}-\text{Blv}}}=\sqrt{\frac{4\text{ml}}{2\text{mg}-\text{mg}}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\text{l}}{\text{g}}}$ [from (1)]

A gas in equilibrium has uniform density and pressure throughout its volume. This is strictly true only if there are no external influences. A gas column under gravity, for example, does not have uniform density (and pressure). As you might expect, its density decreases with height. The precise dependence is given by the so-called law of atmospheres:
$\text{n}_2=\text{n}_1\text{exp}\Big[\frac{-\text{mg}}{\text{k}_\text{B}\text{T}}(\text{h}_2-\text{h}_1)\Big]$
where n2, n1 refer to number density at heights h2 and h1 respectively. Use this relation to derive the equation for sedimentation equilibrium of a suspension in a liquid column:
$\text{n}_2=\text{n}_1\text{exp}\Big[\frac{-\text{mgN}_\text{A}(\rho-\rho')(\text{h}_2-\text{h}_1)}{(\rho\text{RT})}\Big]$
where $\rho$ is the density of the suspended particle, and $\rho'$ that of surrounding medium. [NA is Avogadro’s number, and R the universal gas constant]
[Hint: Use Archimedes principle to find the apparent weight of the suspended particle]

A small particle travelling with a velocity u collides elastically with a spherical body of equal mass and of radius r initially kept at rest. The centre of this spherical body is located a distance (p < r) away from the direction of motion of the particle. Find the final velocities of the two particles.

[Hint: The force acts along the normal to the sphere through the contact. Treat the collision as onedimensional for this direction. In the tangential direction no force acts and the velocities do not change].
