$K +$ Potential energy U
$\begin{aligned}
\therefore K & =E-U \\
& =15.6 \times 10^{-10}+14.4 \times 10^{-10} \\
\therefore K & =30 \times 10^{-10} J \\
\text { But } K & =\frac{p^2}{2 m_e} \\

$\rightarrow V _0=\left(\frac{h}{e}\right) v-\frac{\phi_0}{e}$ and
From graph $\left( V _0\right)_2>\left( V _0\right)_1$
$\begin{array}{l}
\therefore\left(\frac{h}{e}\right) v_2-\frac{\phi_0}{c}>\left(\frac{h}{e}\right) v_1-\frac{\phi_0}{e} \\
\therefore v_2>v_1 \quad\left[\because V_0=\frac{h v}{c}-\frac{\phi_0}{e}\right] \\

B_{E}=\frac{\mu_0 m}{4 \pi R^3} \\
\therefore m=\frac{4 \pi B_{E} R^3}{\mu_0} \\
\therefore m=\frac{4 \times 10^{-5} \times\left(6.4 \times 10^6\right)^3}{10^{-7}} \\
{\left[\because \frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi}=10^{-7}\right] } \\

An extremely long straight wire, with radius of cross-section a, carries current I. Then ratio of magnetic fields at distances $\frac{a}{2}$ and $2 a$ from its axis would be __________ .
  • A
    $\frac{1}{4}$
  • B
    4
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • D
    1
Answer
D. 1
$\rightarrow$ For first point, $B_i=\frac{\mu_0 I }{2 \pi a^2}(r)$
$\therefore B_i=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi a^2}\left(\frac{a}{2}\right)=\frac{\mu_0 I}{4 \pi a} \ldots(1)$
$\rightarrow$ For second point, $B _0=\frac{\mu_0 I }{2 \pi a^2}$
$\therefore B_0=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi(2 a)}=\frac{\mu_0 I}{4 \pi a} \ldots(2)$
$\rightarrow$ From equation (1) and (2), $\frac{B_1}{B_0}=1$

A particle having 2 C charge passes through magnetic field of $4 k T$ and some uniform electric field with velocity $25 \hat{j}$. If the Lorentz force acting on it is 400 N , find the electric field in this region.
  • A
    $200 \hat{i}$
  • B
    $200 \hat{k}$
  • C
    $1007 \hat{i}$
  • D
    $10 \hat{j}$
Answer
C. $100 \hat{i}$
$\rightarrow$ Lorentz force $\overrightarrow{ F }= q [\overrightarrow{ E }+(\vec{v} \times \overrightarrow{ B })]$ Here, $q=2 C , \vec{v}=25 \hat{j} ms^{-1}, \overrightarrow{B}=$ $4 \hat{k} T$,
$\begin{array}{l}
\quad \overrightarrow{F}=400 \hat{i} \\
\therefore 400 \hat{i}=2[\overrightarrow{E}+(25)(4)(\hat{j} \times \hat{k})] \\
\therefore 400 \hat{i}=2 \overrightarrow{E}+200 \hat{i} \\
\therefore 2 \overrightarrow{E}=200 \hat{i} \\
\therefore \overrightarrow{E}=100 \hat{i} Vm^{-1}

An electric dipole is placed in an uniform electric field of a point charge, the __________ .
  • A
    the resultant force acting on the dipole is always zero.
  • B
    the resultant force acting on the dipole may be zero.
  • C
    torque acting on it may be zero.
  • D
    torque acting on it is always zero.
Answer
A. the resultant force acting on the dipole is always zero.
$\rightarrow $ In a uniform electric field, force on charge $+q$ of dipole is $\overrightarrow{ F }_1=\overrightarrow{ E }_q$ and on $-q$ of dipole, it is $\overrightarrow{ F }_2=-\overrightarrow{ E }_{ q }$. Since $F _1= F _2$ but their directions are opposite, net force on dipole is always zero.
