Question 21 Mark

In the circuit given in the figure, an a.c. source of 200 V is connected through a diode D to a capacitor. The potential difference across the capacitor will be

Answer

(a) : 283 V
Explanation: A diode conducts only during the positive half cycle of a.c. Accordingly, the capacitor charges and discharges. During charging, the p.d. across capacitor
$=200 \times \sqrt{2}=283 V$

Question 51 Mark

If an electron is accelerated by $8.8 \times 10^{14} m / s ^2$ , then electric field required for acceleration is $($given specific charge of the electron $=1.76 \times 10^{11} Ckg ^{-1} )Z$

Answer

$(b) : 50 V \ cm ^{-1}$
Explanation: $a=8.8 \times 10^{14} m / s ^2$
$\frac{e}{m}=1.76 \times 10^{11} C^{-1} \ kg^{-1}$
$a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{e E}{m}=\left(\frac{e}{m}\right) E$
$8.8 \times 10^{14}=1.76 \times 10^{11} \times E$
$E=\frac{8.8 \times 10^{14}}{1.76 \times 10^{11}}$
$=5000 \ Vm ^{-1}$
$=50 \ Vcm ^{-1}$

Question 61 Mark

The shape of the wavefront of the portion of the wavefront of light from a distant star intercepted by the earth is

Answer

(a) : plane
Explanation: Stars are very far away from earth. Near the star the shape is spherical but by the time its light reaches earth, the portion of the wavefront is plane due to increase in radius.

Question 101 Mark

The focal length of a concave mirror is $f.$ An object is placed at a distance $x$ from the focus. The magnification is

Answer

$(c) : \frac{f}{x}$
Explanation: $u = f + x$
Using mirror formula,
$\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f}$
$\text { Or, } \frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{(f+x)}=-\frac{1}{f}$
$\therefore v=-\frac{f(f+x)}{x}$
So, the magnification $=| m |=\frac{v}{u}=\frac{f}{x}$

Question 111 Mark

A parallel plate capacitor of plate area A has a charge Q. The force on each plate of the capacitor is

Answer

(d) : $\frac{q^2}{2 \epsilon_\sigma A}$
Explanation: Force between two plates of the capacitor
$F = u A$, where $u=\frac{1}{2} \varepsilon_0 E^2$ is the energy density and $A =$ Area of each plate Also the electric field, $E=\frac{\sigma}{\varepsilon_0}$ and the charge density, $\sigma=\frac{q}{A}$
Therefore, $F=\frac{1}{2} \varepsilon_0 E^2 A=\frac{1}{2} \varepsilon_0\left(\frac{\sigma}{\varepsilon_0}\right)^2 A=\frac{1}{2} \frac{\sigma^2 A}{\varepsilon_0}=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{q}{A}\right)^2 \frac{A}{\varepsilon_0}=\frac{q^2}{2 A \varepsilon_0}$
