Answer

  1. (c) $663.48Hz$
Explanation:
Here, $L = 0.12H, e = 480nF = 480 \times 10^{-9}F$
$\text{R} = 23\Omega,$ V = 230V
$\text{V}_0=\sqrt{2}\times230=325.22\text{V}$
$\text{I}_0=\frac{\text{V}_0}{\sqrt{\text{R}^2+\Big(\omega\text{L}-\frac{1}{\omega\text{C}}\Big)^2}}$
At resonance, $\omega\text{L}-\frac{1}{\omega\text{C}}=0$
$\omega=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{LC}}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{0.12\times480\times10^9}}=4166.67\ \text{rad}\ \text{s}^{-1}$
$\upsilon_\text{R}=\frac{4166.67}{2\times3.14}=663.48\text{H}_\text{z}$
  1. (a) $14.14A$
Explanation:
Current, $\text{I}_0=\frac{\text{V}_0}{\text{R}}=\frac{325.22}{23}=14.14\text{A}$
  1. (b)$ 2299.3W$
Explanation:
Maximum power, $\text{P}_\text{max}=\frac{1}{2}(\text{I}_0)^2\text{R}$
$=\frac{1}{2}\times(14.14)^2\times23=2299.3\text{W}$
  1. (d) $21.74$
Explanation:
Quality factor, $\text{Q}=\frac{\text{X}_\text{R}}{\text{R}}=\frac{\omega_\text{r}\text{L}}{\text{R}}$
$=\frac{4166.67\times0.12}{23}=21.74$
  1. (b) Current

When light of sufficiently high frequency is incident on a metallic surface, electrons are emitted from the metallic surface. TI1is phenomenon is called photoelectric emission. Kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons depends on the wavelength of incident tight and is independent of the intensity of light. Number of emitted photoelectrons depends on intensity. $(\text{h}\upsilon-\phi)$ is the maximum kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons (where $\phi$ is the work function of metallic surface).

Photoelectric effect
It is the phenomenon of emission of electrons from a metallic surface when light of a suitable frequency is incident on it. The emitted electrons are called photoelectrons.
Nearly all metals exhibit this effect with ultraviolet light but alkali metals like lithium, sodium, potassium, cesium etc. show this effect even with visible light. It is an instantaneous process i.e. photoelectrons are emitted as soon as the light is incident on the metal surface. The number of photoelectrons emitted per second is directly proportional to the intensity of the incident radiation.
The maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons emitted from a given metal surface is independent of the intensity of the incident light and depends only on the frequency of the incident light. For a given metal surface there is a certain minimum value of the frequency of the incident light below which emission of photoelectrons does not occur.
