MCQ

The true statement is

A
The order of colours in the primary and the secondary rainbows is the same
B
The intensity of colours in the primary and the secondary rainbows is the same
C
The intensity of light in the primary rainbow is greater and the order of colours is the same than the secondary rainbow
✓
The intensity of light for different colours in primary rainbow is greater and the order of colours is reverse than the secondary rainbow

✓

Answer

Correct option: D.

The intensity of light for different colours in primary rainbow is greater and the order of colours is reverse than the secondary rainbow

d
Primary rainbow is formed because of one total internal reflection and two refraction of white light by water droplet. A secondary rainbow appears outside of a primary rainbow and develops when light entering a raindrop undergoes two internal reflections.

Answer: The true statement is the intensity of light for different colour in primary rainbow is greater and the order of colour is reverse than the secondary rainbow.

A moving coil galvanometer, having a resistance $G$, produces full scale deflection when a current $I_g$ flows through it. This galvanometer can be converted into $(i)$ an ammeter of range $0$ to $I_0 (I_0 > I_g)$ by connecting a shunt resistance $R_A$ to it and $(ii)$ into a voltmeter of range $0$ to $V(V = GI_0)$ by connecting a series resistance $R_V$ to it. Then,

In the circuit shown the cells $A$ and $B$ have negligible resistance. For $V _{ A }=12\; V , R _{1}=500\; \Omega$ and $R =100\; \Omega$ the galvanometer $(G)$ shows no deflection. The value of $V_{B}$ is .... $V$
