A copper wire of cross-sectional area 0.5 mm2 carries a current of 0.2 A. If the free electron density of copper is 8.4 x 1028 m-3 then compute the drift velocity of free electrons.
1.
we have \(\frac{1}{f}=(n-1)[\frac{1}{R_1}-\frac{1}{R_2}]\)
For equi-convex lens, R1 = R and R2 =-R
\(\frac{1}{f}=(n-1)[\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{-R}]=(n-1)[\frac{1}{R}+\frac{1}{R}]\)
\(\frac{1}{f}=(n-1) \frac{2}{R} \Rightarrow 2f=\frac{R}{(n-1)}\)
(i) when the lens is cut into two parts vertically,
For 1st part, R1 = R and R2 = ∞
\(Therefore\ \frac{1}{\mathrm{f}_{\mathrm{1}}}=(n-1)(\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{(-∞)})=\frac{(n-1)}{R}(or)\frac{R}{n-1}(or)f_1=2f\)
Intensity does not change as the amount of light passing through the lens is same.
(ii) When the lens is cut into two parts horizontally, the radius of curvature remains same, therefore focal length remains same but intensity is reduced.
2.
(i) Ampere- Maxwell law relates the magnetic field around any closed path to the conduction current and displacement current through that path.
\(\oint_{i} \vec{B} \cdot \overrightarrow{d l}=\mu_{0}i =\mu_0(i_c+i_d)\)
(ii) \(\oint_{i} \vec{B} \cdot \overrightarrow{d l}=\mu_{0} i_{C}+\mu_{0} \varepsilon_{0} \frac{dΦ_E}{d t}\) where \(\vec{B}\) is the magnetic field.

3.

(ii) In all other cases there shall be light emerging because the pass axis of (II) is no longer perpendicular to the pass axis of (III).
4.
Maximum kinetic energy Ek = hv - W

5.
i) The threshold wavelength is given by
\({ \lambda }=\frac { hc }{ { \phi }_{ 0 } } =\frac { 6.626\times { 10 }^{ -34 }\times 3\times { 10 }^{ 8 } }{ 4.65\times 1.6\times 10^{ -19 } } \)
= 2672 \(\mathring { A }\)
ii) Energy of the photon of wavelength 2200 \(\mathring { A }\) is
E = \(\frac { hc }{ \lambda } =\frac { 6.626\times { 10 }^{ -34 }\times 3\times { 10 }^{ 8 } }{ 2200\times 10^{ -10 } } \)
= 9.035 x 10-19 J = 5.65 eV
We know that kinetic energy of fastest photo electron is
Kmax = hv - ϕ0 = 5.65 - 4.65
= 1 eV
From equation (7.3), Kmax = eV0
V0 = \(\frac { { K }_{ max } }{ e } =\frac { 1\times 1.6\times { 10 }^{ -19 } }{ 1.6\times { 10 }^{ -19 } } \)
Therefore, stopping potential = 1 V
6.
The de Broglie wavelength associated with the kinetic energy k is given as \(\lambda=\frac{h}{\sqrt{2 m k}}\) , where m is the mass of the particle.
Therefore \(\lambda_{\mathrm{e}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\sqrt{2 \mathrm{~m}_{\mathrm{e}} \mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{e}}}} \text { and } \lambda_{\alpha}=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\sqrt{2 \mathrm{~m}_{\alpha} \mathrm{k}_{\alpha}}} \text {. But } \mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{e}}=\mathrm{k}_{\alpha} . \)
Therefore \(\frac{\lambda_{\mathrm{e}}}{\lambda_{\alpha}}=\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{m}_{\alpha}}{\mathrm{m}_{\mathrm{e}}}} \mathrm{m}_{\alpha}>\mathrm{m}_{\mathrm{e}^{*}} \text {. Therefore, } \lambda_{\mathrm{e}}>\lambda_{\alpha^{\circ}}\)
7.
Black holes are end stage of stars whose mass ranges from 20 times to 1 million times the mass of the sun. Because of their dense mass, they have very strong gravitational force such that no particle or even light can escape from it. Therefore they are not visible to human eye. Every galaxy has black hole at its center.

\(0+\mathrm{KE}_{\mathrm{B}_{i}}=\mathrm{KE}_{\mathrm{A}_{\mathrm{f}}}+\mathrm{KE}_{\mathrm{A}_{t}} \)
\(\mathrm{KE}_{\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{i}}}=2 \mathrm{KE}_{\mathrm{A}_{\mathrm{f}}} \)
Minimum energy required for excite the hydrogen atom is 10.2eV
Hence minimum Kinetic energy of HB is
\(\mathrm{KE}_{\mathrm{B}_{1}}=2 \times 10.2 \mathrm{eV}=20.4 \mathrm{eV}\)
11.
The total distance d between the transmitting and receiving antennas will be the sum of the individual distances of coverage.

\(=\sqrt { 2R{ h }_{ 1 } } +\sqrt { 2{ Rh }_{ 2 } } \)
\(=\sqrt { 2R } \left( \sqrt { { h }_{ 1 } } +\sqrt { { h }_{ 2 } } \right) \)
\(=\sqrt { 2\times 6.4\times { 10 }^{ 6 } } \times (\sqrt { 40 } +\sqrt { 30 } )\)
\(=16\times { 10 }^{ 2 }\sqrt { 5 } \times (6.32+5.48)\)
= 42217 m = 42.217 km
12.

24.
From right hand rule, the magnetic field by the straight wire is directed into the plane of the square loop perpendicularly and its magnetic flux is decreasing. The decrease in flux is opposed by the current induced in the loop by producing a magnetic field in the same direction as the magnetic field of the wire. Again from right hand rule, for this inward magnetic field, the direction of the induced current in the loop is clockwise.
25.
Apply Kirchoff's 1st law at junction B
II - I2 - I3 = 0
I3 = I1 - I2 ....(1)
Applying Kirchoff's IInd law at path ABEFA,
100I3 + 100 I1 = 15 ....(2)
Substitute equation (1) in equation (2),
100 (I1 - I2) + 100 I1 = 15
100 I1 - 100 I2 + 100 I1 = 15
200 I1 - 100 I2 = 15 ....(3)
Apply Kirchhoffs 2nd law ar path BCDEB,
100 I2 - 100 I3 = -9 ....(4)
Substitute equation (1) in above equation (4),
100 I2 - 100(I1 - I2) 100 = -9
100 I2 - 100 I1 + 100 I2 = -9
200 I2 - 100 I1 = - 9 ....(5)
Solve equation (3) and (5), we get
Eqn (3) ⇒ 200 I1 - 100 I2 = 15
2 x Eqn (5) ⇒ -200 I1 + 400I2 = -18
________________
300 I2 = -3
I2 = -3 /300 = -0.01 A
I2 = -0.01 A
Substitute I2 value in equation (5)
200 I2 -100 I1 = - 9
200 x (- 0.01) - 100 I1 = - 9
- 2 - 100 I1 = -9
-100 I1 = -9 + 2
-100 I1 = -7
I1 = 7/100
I1 = 0.07A
Substitute I1, I2 value in equation (1)
I3 = I1 - I2
= 0.07 + 0.01
I3 = 0.08 A
I1 = 0.07 A, I2 = - 0.01 A and I3 = 0.08 A
26.

In this figure, the dot implies the pole points.
27.
Applying Kirchoff’s rule to the point P in the circuit,
The arrows pointing towards P are positive and away from P are negative.
Therefore, 0.2A - 0.4A + 0.6A - 0.5A + 0.7A - I = 0
0.7 A - I = 0
1.5A - 0.9A – I = 0
0.6A - I = 0
I = 0.6 A
28.
(i) The electric field lines start at q2 and end at q1. In figure (a), q2 is positive and q1 is negative. The number of lines starting from q2 is 18 and number of the lines ending at q1 is 6. So q2 has greater magnitude. The ratio of \(\left| \frac { { q }_{ 1 } }{ { q }_{ 2 } } \right| =\frac { { N }_{ 1 } }{ { N }_{ 2 } } =\frac { 6 }{ 18 } =\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \). It implies that |q2| = 3|q1|.
(ii) In figure (b), the number of field lines emanating from both positive charges are equal (N = 18). So the charges are equal. At point A, the electric field lines are denser compared to the lines at point B. So the electric field at point A is greater in magnitude compared to the field at point B. Further, no electric field line passes through C, which implies that the resultant electric field at C due to these two charges is zero.
(iii) In the figure (c), the electric field lines start at q1 and q3 and end at q2. This implies that q1 and q3 are positive charges. The ratio of the number of field lines is \(\left| \frac { { q }_{ 1 } }{ { q }_{ 2 } } \right| =\frac { 8 }{ 16 } =\left| \frac { { q }_{ 3 } }{ { q }_{ 2 } } \right| =\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \), implying that q1 and q3 are half of the magnitude of q2. So q1 = q3 = +10 nc.
29.
By using superposition principle, the net electric field at point A is
\(\vec { E_{ A } } =\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi { \varepsilon }_{ 0 } } \frac { { q }_{ 1 } }{ { r }_{ 1A }^{ 2 } } \hat { { r }_{ 1A } } +\frac { 1 }{ 4\pi { \varepsilon }_{ 0 } } \frac { { q }_{ 1 } }{ { r }_{ 2A }^{ 2 } } \hat { { r }_{ 2A } } \)
where r1A and r2A are the distances of point A from the two charges respectively
\(\vec { E_{ A } } =\frac { 9\times 10^{ 4 }\times 1\times { 10 }^{ -6 } }{ (2\times { 10 }^{ -3 })^{ 2 } } (\hat { j } )+\frac { 9\times 10^{ 9 }\times 1\times { 10 }^{ -6 } }{ (2\times 10^{ -3 })^{ 2 } } (\hat { i } )\)\(\)
= 2.25 x 109\(\hat { j } \) + 2.25 x 109\(\hat { i } \) = 2.25 x 109 (\((\hat { i } +\hat { j } )\)
The magnitude of electric field
\(|\vec { { E }_{ A } } |=\sqrt { (2.25\times { 10 }^{ 9 })^{ 2 }+(2.25\times 10^{ 9 })^{ 2 } } \)
= 2.25 x \(\sqrt { 2 } \) x 109 NC-1
The direction of \(\vec { { E }_{ A } } \) is given by \(\frac { \vec { { E }_{ A } } }{ |\vec { { E }_{ A } } | } =\frac { 2.25\times 10^{ 9 }(\hat { i } +\hat { j } ) }{ 2.25\times \sqrt { 2 } \times { 10 }^{ 9 } } =\frac { (\hat { i } +\hat { j } ) }{ \sqrt { 2 } } \), which is the unit vector along OA as shown in the figure.

The acceleration experienced by an electron placed at point A is
\(\vec { a_{ A } } =\frac { \vec { F } }{ m } =\frac { q\vec { { E }_{ A } } }{ m } \)
=\(\frac { (-1.6\times 10^{ -19 })\times (2.25\times 10^{ 9 })(\hat { i } +\hat { j } ) }{ 9.1\times { 10 }^{ -31 } } \)
= -3.95 x 1020 \((\hat { i } +\hat { j } )\)Nkg-1
The electron is accelerated in a direction exactly opposite to \(\vec { { E }_{ A } } \).
30.
The relation between drift velocity of electrons and current in a wire of cross- sectional area A is
\({ v }_{ d }=\frac { I }{ neA } =\frac { 0.2 }{ 8.4\times { 10 }^{ 28 }\times 1.6\times { 10 }^{ -19 }\times 0.5\times { 10 }^{ -6 } }\)
