N = 5 turns
A = 2 x 10-2 m2
B = 4 x 10-2 Wb m-2
K = 4 x 10-9 N m deg-1
(a) Current sensitivity
\({ I }_{ s }=\frac { NAB }{ K } =\frac { 5\times 2\times { 10 }^{ -2 }\times 4\times { 10 }^{ -2 } }{ 4\times 10^{ -9 } } \)
= 106 divisions per ampere
\(I\mu A=\) 1microambire =10-6ampere
Therefore,

Rs = R1 + R2 = 15 Ω (1)
\({ R }_{ p }=\frac { { R }_{ 1 }{ R }_{ 2 } }{ { R }_{ 1 }{ +R }_{ 2 } } =\frac { 56 }{ 15 } \Omega \quad \) (2)
From equation (1) substituting for R1 + R2 in equation (2)
\(\frac { { R }_{ 1 }{ R }_{ 2 } }{ 15 } =\frac { 56 }{ 15 } \Omega \)
∴ R1R2 = 56
\({ R }_{ 2 }=\frac { 56 }{ 15 } \Omega \) (3)
Substituting for R2 in equation (1) from equation (3)
\({ R }_{ 1 }+\frac { 56 }{ { R }_{ 1 } } =15\)
Then, \(\frac { { R }_{ 1 }^{ 2 }+56 }{ { R }_{ 1 } } =15\)
R12 + 56 = 15 R1
R12 - 15 R1 + 56 = 0
The above equation can be solved using factorisation.
R1 = 8 Ω (or) R1 = 7 Ω
If (R1 = 8 Ω)
Substituting in equation (1)
8 + R2 = 15
R2 = 15 – 8 = 7 Ω ,
R2 = 7 Ω i.e , (when R1 = 8 Ω ; R2 = 7 Ω)
If R1= 7 Ω
Substituting in equation (1)
7 + R2 = 15
R2 = 8 Ω , i.e , (when R1 = 7 Ω ; R2 = 8 Ω )
5.
(a) Electric potential at point P is given by
Vp=\(\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi { \varepsilon }_{ 0 } } \frac { q }{ { r }_{ p } } =\frac { 9\times 10^{ 9 }\times 9\times { 10 }^{ -6 } }{ 10 } \) = 8.1 x 103 V
Electric potential at point Q is given by
VQ = \(\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi { \varepsilon }_{ 0 } } \frac { q }{ { r }_{ Q } } =\frac { 9\times 10^{ 9 }\times 9\times { 10 }^{ -6 } }{ 16 } \) = 5.06 x 103 V
Note that the electric potential at point Q is less than the electric potential at point P. If we put a positive charge at P, it moves from P to Q. However if we place a negative charge at P it will move towards the charge +9μC.
The potential difference between the points P and Q is given by
ΔV = Vp-VQ = +3.04 x 103 V
b) Suppose we replace the charge +9 μC by -9 μC, then the corresponding potentials at the points P and Q are,
Vp = -8.1 x 103 V, VQ = -5.06 x 103 V
Note that in this case electric potential at the point Q is higher than at point P.
The potential difference or voltage between the points P and Q is given by
ΔV = Vp-VQ= -3.04 x 103V
(c) The electric potential V at a point P due to some charge is defined as the work done by an external force to bring a unit positive charge from infinity to P. So to bring the q amount of charge from infinity to the point P, work done is given as follows.
W = qV
WQ = 2 x 10-6 x 5.06 x 103J = 10.12 x 10-3 J.

In the first case, the resistance of the block
\({ R }_{ AB }=\rho \frac { length }{ Area } =\rho \frac { C }{ AB } \)
The current \({ I }_{ AB }=\frac { V }{ { R }_{ AB } } =\frac { V }{ \rho } .\frac { AB }{ C } \quad (1)\)
In the second case, the resistance of the block \({ R }_{ BC }=\rho \frac { A }{ BC } \)
The current \({ I }_{ BC }=\frac { V }{ { R }_{ BC } } =\frac { V }{ \rho } .\frac { BC }{ C } \quad (2)\)
To express IBC interms of IAB, we multiply and divide equation (2) by AC, we get
\({ I }_{ BC }=\frac { V }{ \rho } .\frac { BC }{ A } \frac { AC }{ AC } =\left( \frac { V }{ \rho } .\frac { AB }{ C } \right) .\frac { { C }^{ 2 } }{ { A }^{ 2 } } =\frac { { C }^{ 2 } }{ { A }^{ 2 } }.{ I }_{ AB }\)
Since C > A, the current IBC > IAB
7.
Case (a)
The magnitude of the electric field at point P is
Ep = \(\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi \varepsilon _{ 0 } } \frac { q }{ { r }^{ 2 } } =\frac { 9\times { 10 }^{ 9 }\times 1\times 10^{ -6 } }{ 4 } \)
= 2.25 x 103 NC-1
Since the source charge is positive, the electric field points away from the charge. So the electric field at the point P is given by
\(\bar { { E }_{ p } } \) = 2.25 x 103 NC-1
For the point Q
\(|\vec { { E }_{ Q } } |=\frac { 9\times 10^{ 9 }\times 1\times { 10 }^{ -6 } }{ 16 } \) = 0.56 x 103 NC-1
Hence \(\vec { { E }_{ Q } } \) = 0.56 x 103\(\hat { j } \) NC-1
Case (b)
The magnitude of the electric field at point P
\(\bar { { E }_{ p } } =\frac { kq }{ r^{ 2 } } =\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi { \varepsilon }_{ 0 } } \frac { q }{ { r }^{ 2 } } =\frac { 9\times 10^{ 9 }\times 2\times 10^{ -6 } }{ 4 } \)
= 4.5 x 103 NC-1
Since the source charge is negative, the electric field points towards the charge. So the electric field at the point P is given by
\(\vec { E_{ p } } \) = -4.5 x 103\(\hat { i } \)NC-1
For the point Q, \(|\vec { { E }_{ Q } } |\frac { 9\times 10^{ 9 }\times 2\times { 10 }^{ -6 } }{ 36 } \)
= 0.5 x 103 NC-1
\(\vec { E_{ Q } } \) = 0.5 x 103\(\hat { i } \)NC-1
At the point Q the electric field is directed along the positive x-axis.

If the two spheres are neutral, the angle between them will be 0o when hanged vertically. Since they are positively charged spheres, there will be a repulsive force between them and they will be at equilibrium with each other at an angle of 30° with the vertical. At equilibrium, each charge experiences zero net force in each direction. We can draw a free-body diagram for one of the charged spheres and apply Newton’s second law for both vertical and horizontal directions.
The free-body diagram is shown below

In the x-direction, the acceleration of the charged sphere is zero.
Using Newton’s second law \((\vec { { F }_{ tot }= } m\vec { a } )\), we have
T sinθ\(\hat { i } \) - Fe\(\hat { i } \) =0
T sinθ = Fe ......(1)
Here T is the tension acting on the charge due to the string and Fe is the electrostatic force between the two charges.
In the y-direction also, the net acceleration experienced by the charge is zero
Tcosθ\(\hat { j } \) - mg\(\hat { j } \) = 0
Tcosθ = mg ..(2)
By dividing equation (1) by equation (2),
tanθ = \(\frac { { F }_{ e } }{ mg } \) .....(3)
Since they are equally charged, the magnitude of the electrostatic force is
\({ F }_{ e }=k\frac { { q }^{ 2 } }{ { r }^{ 2 } } \) where k=\(\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi { \varepsilon }_{ 0 } } \)
Here r = 2a = 2Lsinθ. By substituting these values in equation (3),
tanθ = k\(\frac { { q }^{ 2 } }{ mg(2Lsin\theta )^{ 2 } } \) ..........(4)
Rearranging the equation (4) to get q
q = 2 Lsinθ\(\\ \sqrt { \frac { mgtan\theta }{ k } } \)
= 2 x 0.1 x sin 30o x \(\sqrt { \frac { 10^{ -3 }\times 10\times { tan30 }^{ 0 } }{ 9\times 10^{ 9 } } } \)
q = 8.01 x 10-8C = 80.1 nC

12.
The fuel bundles which consist of tiny pellets of uranium oxide are placed in calandria reactor vessel. The part of the reactor vessel which contains the fuel rod is known as reactor core.
13.
In nuclear fusion reaction, the energy liberated per unit mass of the nuclei taking part in the reaction is many times larger than the energy liberated in a fission reaction.
14.
A nuclear reaction in which the neutron used to carry out the nuclear fission reaction gets multiplied as more and more such fission reaction take place is called a nuclear chain reaction.
15.
Linear mass density of the conductor is = 0.2 g/m
Mass per unit length \(\frac{M}{l}=0.2 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}\)
Magnetic field B = 1T.
Acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 ms-2
Force \(=\frac{m}{l} \times g\)
= 0.2 x 10-3 x 10 = 0.2 x 10-2
F = 2 x 10-3 N ....(1)
If the coil is placed in the magnetic field then the force acting on the coil is
F= BIl ....(2)
From the equation (1) and (2) we get
BIl = 2 x 10-3
∴ 1 x L x I = 2 x 10-3
∴ I = 2 x 10-3 A [∴ l = 1m]
∴ I = 2mA
16.
Electric field, E = 6.0 x 106 N C-1 and magnetic field, B = 0.83 T.
Then.
\(v=\frac { E }{ B } =\frac { { 6.0\times 10 }^{ 6 } }{ 0.83 } =7.23\times { 10 }^{ 6 }{ ms }^{ -1 }\)
When an electron goes with this velocity, it shows null deflection. Since the accelerating potential is 200 V, the electron acquires kinetic energy because of this accelerating potential. Hence,
\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } mv^{ 2 }=eV \)
\(v=\sqrt { \frac { 2eV }{ m } }\)
Since the mass of the electron, m = 9.1 x 10−31kg and charge of an electron, \(\left| q \right| =e=1.6\times { 10 }^{ -19 }C.\) The velocity acquired by the electron due to accelerating potential 200 V is
\({ v }_{ 200 }=\sqrt { \frac { 2\left( 1.6\times { 10 }^{ -19 } \right) \left( 200 \right) }{ \left( 9.1\times { 10 }^{ -31 } \right) } } =8.39\times { 10 }^{ 6 }m{ s }^{ -1 }\)
Since the speed v200 > v, the electron is deflected towards direction of Lorentz force. So, in order to have null deflection, the potential, we have to supply is
\(v=\frac { { 1mv }^{ 2 } }{ 2\quad e } =\frac { \left( 9.1\times { 10 }^{ -31 } \right) \times \left( 7.23\times { 10 }^{ 6 } \right) ^{ 2 } }{ 2\times \left( 1.6\times { 10 }^{ -19 } \right) } \)
V = 148.65 V
17.

(a) \(C_{1}=\frac{\varepsilon_{0} A}{2d} (\because area=\frac{A}{2})\)
\(C_{2}=\frac{\varepsilon_{r} \varepsilon_{0} A}{d} \)
C1 and C2 are in parellel,
\(C_{P}=\left(C_{1}+C_{2}\right) \)
\(C_{P}=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{\varepsilon_{r} \varepsilon_{0} A}{d}+\frac{\varepsilon_{0} A}{d}\right) \)
\(=\frac{1}{2} \frac{\varepsilon_{0} A}{d}\left(\varepsilon_{r}+1\right) \)
\(C_{P}=\frac{\varepsilon_{0} A}{2 d}\left(\varepsilon_{r}+1\right) \)
.jpg)
(b) \(C_1=\frac{\varepsilon_0 \varepsilon_r A}{d / 2}=\frac{2 \varepsilon_0 \varepsilon_r A}{d}(\because \text { Separation }=d / 2)\)
\(C_2=\frac{2 \varepsilon_0 A}{d}\)
C1 and C2 are in series,
\(\frac{1}{C_1} =\frac{1}{C_1}+\frac{1}{C_2} \)
\(=\frac{d}{2 \varepsilon_0 \varepsilon_r A}+\frac{d}{2 \varepsilon_0 A} \)
\(=\frac{d}{2 \varepsilon_0 A}\left(\frac{1}{\varepsilon_r}+1\right) \)
\(\frac{1}{C_1} =\frac{d}{2 \varepsilon_0 A}\left(\frac{1+\varepsilon_r}{\varepsilon_r}\right) \)
\(\therefore C_s =\frac{2 e_0 A}{d}\left(\frac{e_r}{1+e_r}\right)\)
18.
\(W =\left(V_{b}-V_{a}\right) q\left[where\ V=\frac{K Q}{r}\right] \)
To find Vb :
\(V_b=\frac{kQ}{r_3}+\frac{kQ}{r_4}\)
\(V_{b} =\frac{K \times 10 \times 10^{-6}}{\sqrt{50 \times 10^{-4}}}+\frac{K \times 10 \times 10^{-6}}{\sqrt{250 \times 10^{-4}}} \)
\(V_{b} =\frac{K \times 10^{-5}}{\sqrt{50} \times 10^{-2}}+\frac{K \times 10^{-5}}{\sqrt{250} \times 10^{-2}} \)
\(=K \times 10^{-3}\left[\frac{1}{\sqrt{50}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{250}}\right] \)
\(=9 \times 10^{9} \times 10^{-3}\left[\frac{1}{\sqrt{50}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{250}}\right] \)
Vb = 1842002 V
To find Va :
\(V_a=\frac{kQ}{r_1}+\frac{kQ}{r_2}\)
\(V_{a} =\frac{K \times 10 \times 10^{-6}}{\sqrt{5 \times 10^{-2}}}+\frac{K \times 10 \times 10^{-6}}{\sqrt{15 \times 10^{-2}}} \)
Va = 2400000 V
\(\therefore W_{D} =\left(V_{b}-V_{a}\right) q=(1842002-2400000)( -2 \times 10^{-6} )\)
W = +1.12J
Positive sign implies that to move the charge - 2 μC external work is required.

(a) In the figure

1 - Electrostatic force Fe = QE
2 - Weight W = mg
3 - Elastic force F = -kx
4 - Upward force = Normal reaction = N
b) In this figure

1- Electrostatic force F = qE
2 - Weight W = mg
3 - Tension acting along the string is T
(c) The charge is attracted towards the positively charged plate because it is a negative charge.
1 - Force = qE
2 - Downward force F = mg
20.
Note: A similar problem is solved in XIth Physics volume I, unit 3 section 3.3.2. There are three forces that acts on the mass m:
(i) The downward gravitational force exerted by the Earth (mg)
(ii) The normal force exerted by the inclined surface (N)
(iii) The Coulomb force given by uniform electric field (qE) The free body diagram for the mass m is drawn below.

A convenient inertial coordinate system is located in the inclined surface as shown in the figure. The mass m has zero net acceleration both in x and y-direction.
Along x-direction, applying Newton’s second law, we have
mg sinθ\(\hat { i } \) - qE\(\hat { i } \) = 0
mg sinθ - q E = 0
or, E = \(\\ \frac { mgsin\theta }{ q } \)
Note that the magnitude of the electric field is directly proportional to the mass m and inversely proportional to the charge q. It implies that, if the mass is increased by keeping the charge constant, then a strong electric field is required to stop the object from sliding. If the charge is increased by keeping the mass constant, then a weak electric field is sufficient to stop the mass from sliding down the plane.
The electric field also can be expressed in terms of height and the length of the inclined surface of the plane.
E = \(\frac { mgh }{ qL } \).

Let the currents flowing through wires XY and PQ be I1 and I2
Magnetic field along PQ is \(\mathrm{B}_{1}=\frac{\mu_{o} I_{2}}{2 \pi r}\)
Force per unit length on PQ is \(\frac{F_{2}}{l}=\frac{\mu_{0} I_{1} I_{2}}{2 \pi r}\)
If the wire XY is slightly displaced and released, it executes simple harmonic motion with the condition that acceleration is directly proportional to the displacement y
\(\therefore a=-\omega^{2} y\) .....(1)
The distance between two wires = d
Time period
\(T=\frac{2 \pi}{\omega} \)
\(a=\frac{g}{d} y \) .....(2)
By comparing the equations (1) and (2) we get
\(\omega^{2} =-\frac{g}{d} \ \therefore \omega=\sqrt{\frac{g}{d}} \)
\(\text { Time period } =\frac{2 \pi}{\omega}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{d}{g}} \)
\(\therefore T =2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{d}{g}} \)
22.
According to the superposition principle, the total electric potential at a point is equal to the sum of the potentials due to each charge at that point.
Consider the point at which the total potential zero is located at a distance x from the charge +q as shown in the figure.

The total electric potential at P is zero.
Vtot = \(\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi { \varepsilon }_{ 0 } } \left( \frac { q }{ x } -\frac { 2q }{ (9-x) } \right) \)=0
Which gives \(\frac { q }{ x } -\frac { 2q }{ (9-x) } \)
or \(\frac { 1 }{ x } =\frac { 2 }{ (9-x) } \)
Hence, x = 3m

Lorentz force F = Bqv
Energy w = qV
Energy is equal to kinetic energy,
\(qV=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\)
\(v=\sqrt { \frac {2qV }{ m } } \)
\(\therefore Lorentz \ force \ F= Bq\times \sqrt \frac{2qV}{m}=\sqrt { \frac { 2{ B }^{ 2 }{ q }^{ 3 }V }{ m } } \)

L = 20 x 10-3H. C = 50 x 10-6 F, R= 40Ω

\(R=100 \Omega, \quad \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{R}}=40 \mathrm{~V} \)
\(\therefore I_{\mathrm{R}}=\frac{V_R}{100}=\frac{40}{100}=0.4 \mathrm{~A} \)
\(\omega=\frac{1}{\sqrt{L C}} \)
\(\omega^2=\frac{1}{L C} \)
\((250)^2=\frac{1}{L \times 4 \times 10^{-6}} \)
\(L=\frac{1}{4 \times(250)^2 \times 10^{-6}} \)
\(=\frac{1}{4 \times 250 \times 250 \times 10^{-6}} \)
\(=\frac{1}{1000 \times 10^{-6} \times 250} \)
\(=\frac{10^3}{250}=\frac{1000}{250}=4 \mathrm{H}\)
