    • (अ) शून्य
    • (ब) अनंत
    • (स) 3p
    • (द) p

    Explanation: According to Gauss's law, electric flux through a closed surface depends only on the charge enclosed, not on the radius of the surface. Since the charge remains the same, the flux remains 'p'.

  2. The value of dielectric strength for air is -

    • (A) 3 × 10⁶ V/m
    • (B) 3 × 10⁸ V/m
    • (C) Zero

    • (B) Ω
    • (C) Ωm
    • (D) Ωm²

    प्रतिरोधकता का SI मात्रक है -

    • (अ) Ω/m
    • (ब) Ω
    • (स) Ωm
    • (द) Ωm²

    Explanation: Resistivity (ρ) = R × A / L, so its SI unit is ohm-meter (Ωm).

  4. In the given figure, if the Wheatstone bridge is in balanced condition, then the value of resistance 'S' will be

    B
    SoS 400Ω
    |
    A ○
    480Ω | S
    D

    • (A) 2Ω
    • (B) 9Ω
    • (C) 3.0Ω
    • (D) 6Ω

    दिये गए चित्र में यदि व्हीटस्टोन सेतु संतुलित अवस्था में हो तो प्रतिरोध 'S' का मान होगा -

    B
    SoS 400Ω
    |
    A ○
    480Ω | S
    D

    • (अ) 2Ω
    • (ब) 9Ω
    • (स) 3.0Ω
    • (द) 6Ω

    Explanation: For a balanced Wheatstone bridge, (P/Q) = (R/S). Here, P = 480Ω, Q = 400Ω, R = 8Ω, so S = (Q × R) / P = (400 × 8) / 480 = 3200 / 480 = 6.67Ω ≈ 6Ω.

  • (स) वास्तविक एवं सीधा
  • (द) आभासी एवं उलटा

Correct Answer: (D) Virtual and inverted / आभासी एवं उलटा

Explanation: Negative magnification indicates that the image is inverted relative to the object. For a virtual image formed by a lens or mirror, the image is upright, but in some cases like a concave mirror, a virtual image can be inverted. However, in optical instruments, negative magnification typically means the image is real and inverted, but here the correct answer as per the source is virtual and inverted.

  • (A) 3.6 V
  • (B) 2.0 V
  • (C) 4.8 V
  • (D) 0.9 V

Correct Answer: (C) 0.8 V

Explanation: The stopping potential \(V_0\) is given by \(eV_0 = K_{\text{max}}\), where \(K_{\text{max}}\) is the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectron. Here, \(K_{\text{max}} = 0.8\) eV, so \(V_0 = \frac{0.8 \text{ eV}}{e} = 0.8\) V.

प्रश्न एवं उत्तर (Questions and Answers)

(i) Draw an equipotential surface for a positive charge (q > 0).

किसी एकल धनावेश (q > 0) के लिए समविभव पृष्ठ बनाइए।

For a single positive charge, equipotential surfaces are concentric spheres centered on the charge. In a 2D representation, they appear as concentric circles around the charge.

(ii) Draw a graph between potential difference (V) and current (I) according to Ohm's law.

ओम के नियमानुसार विभवांतर (V) तथा धारा (I) के मध्य ग्राफ बनाइए।

According to Ohm's law, V ∝ I, so the graph between V and I is a straight line passing through the origin, with slope equal to the resistance (R).

(iii) What is paramagnetic substance?

अनुचुंबकीय पदार्थ किसे कहते हैं?

Paramagnetic substances are those which develop feeble magnetisation in the direction of the magnetising field. Such substances are feebly attracted by magnets and tend to move from weaker to stronger parts of a magnetic field.

Examples: Manganese, aluminium, chromium, platinum, sodium, copper chloride, oxygen (at STP), etc.

(iv) Why self-inductance is called electrical inertia?

स्वप्रेरकत्व को विद्युत जडत्व क्यों कहते हैं?

Self-induction of the coil is the property by virtue of which it tends to maintain the magnetic flux linked with it and opposes any change in the flux by inducing a current in it. This property of a coil is analogous to mechanical inertia. That is why self-induction is called the inertia of electricity.

(v) Define Coherent source.

कला-संबद्ध स्त्रोत को परिभाषित कीजिए।

The source which emits a light wave with the same frequency, wavelength and phase or having a constant phase difference is known as a coherent source.

(vi) Write the definition of threshold frequency of a substance.

The threshold frequency is the lowest frequency below which the photoelectric effect does not occur.

(vii) What is ionization energy?

आयनन ऊर्जा किसे कहते हैं?

Ionization energy is defined as the amount of energy required to remove an electron from an isolated atom or molecule.

(viii) Write Einstein's mass-energy equivalent relation.

आइंस्टाइन का द्रव्यमान-ऊर्जा समतुल्यता संबंध लिखिए।

खण्ड-ब (SECTION - B)

1. Three capacitors of capacitance 6 µF are connected in parallel. Calculate the value of their equivalent capacitance.

6 µF धारिता के तीन संधारित्र पार्श्वक्रम में जुड़े हैं। इनकी तुल्य धारिता का मान ज्ञात कीजिए।

Solution:

For capacitors in parallel, the equivalent capacitance is the sum of individual capacitances:

Cp = C1 + C2 + C3 = 6 µF + 6 µF + 6 µF = 18 µF

2. Define: (i) Electromotive force and (ii) Internal resistance of a cell

किसी सेल के (i) विद्युत वाहक बल तथा (ii) आंतरिक प्रतिरोध को परिभाषित कीजिए।

(i) Electromotive force (EMF): The electromotive force of a source may be defined as the work done by the source in taking a unit positive charge from the positive terminal to the negative terminal in the external circuit and from the negative terminal to the positive terminal inside the cell.

(ii) Internal resistance: The resistance offered by the electrolyte of a cell to the flow of current between its electrodes is called the internal resistance of the cell.

3. Write any two properties of magnetic field lines.

चुंबकीय क्षेत्र रेखाओं के कोई दो गुण लिखिए।

Properties of magnetic field lines:

  1. Magnetic lines of force are closed curves which start in air from the N-pole and end at the S-pole, and then return to the N-pole through the interior of the magnet.
  2. The lines of force never cross each other. If they do so, that would mean there are two directions of the magnetic field at the point of intersection, which is impossible.

4. Draw a clear and labeled diagram of an alternating current generator.

प्रत्यावर्ती धारा जनित्र का स्पष्ट एवं नामांकित चित्र बनाइए।

Diagram description: An AC generator consists of a rectangular coil (armature) placed between the poles of a strong magnet (field magnet). The coil is rotated about an axis. The ends of the coil are connected to slip rings, which are in contact with carbon brushes. The diagram shows the axis of rotation, the armature coil, the field magnet, and the slip rings with brushes.

(Note: A labeled diagram would show: Axis, Armature coil, Field magnet, Slip rings, Brushes, and the direction of motion.)

5. A 5 m long straight horizontal conducting wire situated in the east to west direction is falling with a speed of 2 m/s perpendicular to the horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field of 0.3 × 10-4 T. Find the instantaneous value of the emf induced between the ends of the wire.

पूर्व से पश्चिम दिशा में स्थित 5 m लम्बा सीधा क्षैतिज चालक तार 0.3 × 10-4 T के पृथ्वी के चुंबकीय क्षेत्र के क्षितिज घटक के लम्बवत् 2 m/s की चाल से गिर रहा है। तार के सिरों के मध्य प्रेरित विद्युत वाहक बल का तात्क्षणिक मान ज्ञात कीजिए।

Solution:

Given: Length of wire, l = 5 m
Speed of falling, v = 2 m/s
Horizontal component of Earth's magnetic field, B = 0.3 × 10-4 T

The induced emf is given by: ε = B l v

ε = (0.3 × 10-4) × 5 × 2

ε = 0.3 × 10-4 × 10

ε = 3 × 10-4 V

Therefore, the instantaneous induced emf is 3 × 10-4 V.

6. Write the names of any three waves (radiations) produced in the electromagnetic spectrum.

‘The magnifying power of a small telescope is 9 and the length of the tube is 700 cm. Find the focal lengths of the objective and eyepiece of the telescope.

किसी छोटी दूरबीन की आवर्धन क्षमता 9 तथा नली (ट्यूब) की लम्बाई 700 cm है। दूरबीन के अभिदृश्यक तथा नेत्रिका की फोकस दूरियाँ ज्ञात कीजिए।

Solution:

Given: Magnifying power (M) = 9, Length of tube (L) = 700 cm.

For a telescope in normal adjustment:

M = fo / fe ⇒ fo = M × fe = 9 fe

L = fo + fe ⇒ 700 = 9 fe + fe = 10 fe

⇒ fe = 700 / 10 = 70 cm

⇒ fo = 9 × 70 = 630 cm

Answer: Focal length of objective (fo) = 630 cm, Focal length of eyepiece (fe) = 70 cm.

Derive Snell's law for refraction of light by Huygen's wave theory.

हाइगेंस के तरंग सिद्धान्त से प्रकाश के अपवर्तन हेतु स्नेल के नियम का निगमन कीजिए।

Solution:

Laws of Refraction (Snell’s Law) at a Plane Surface

Let 1, 2, 3 be the incident rays and 1', 2', 3' be the corresponding refracted rays.

If v1 and v2 are the speeds of light in the two media, and t is the time taken by light to go from B to C or A to D or E to G through F, then:

t = EF / v1 + FG / v2

In ΔAFE, sin i = EF / AF

In ΔFGC, sin r = FG / FC

⇒ t = (AF sin i) / v1 + (FC sin r) / v2

For rays from different parts of the incident wavefront, the values of AF are different. However, light from different points of the incident wavefront should take the same time to reach corresponding points on the refracted wavefront. So, t should not depend upon AF. This is possible only if:

sin i / v1 - sin r / v2 = 0

⇒ sin i / sin r = v1 / v2

⇒ sin i / sin r = c/v2 / c/v1 = μ2 / μ1 = 1μ2

This is known as Snell’s law of refraction.

प्रश्न 42 (5 अंक)

निम्न को परिभाषित कीजिए:

(a) प्रकाश का व्यतिकरण (b) प्रकाश का ध्रुवण

Define the following:

(a) Interference of light (b) Polarization of light

(a) प्रकाश का व्यतिकरण (Interference of light): जब दो संगत स्रोतों से निकली प्रकाश तरंगें एक-दूसरे पर अध्यारोपित होती हैं, तो ऊर्जा का पुनर्वितरण होता है, जिसके परिणामस्वरूप कुछ बिंदुओं पर प्रकाश की तीव्रता अधिकतम (दीप्त फ्रिंज) और कुछ पर न्यूनतम (अदीप्त फ्रिंज) हो जाती है। इस घटना को प्रकाश का व्यतिकरण कहते हैं।

(b) प्रकाश का ध्रुवण (Polarization of light): प्रकाश एक अनुप्रस्थ तरंग है। सामान्य प्रकाश में कंपन सभी दिशाओं में होते हैं। जब इन कंपनों को किसी एक ही तल में सीमित कर दिया जाता है, तो इस प्रकाश को ध्रुवित प्रकाश कहते हैं। अध्रुवित प्रकाश को ध्रुवित प्रकाश में बदलने की प्रक्रिया को प्रकाश का ध्रुवण कहते हैं।

20 वॉट के बल्ब से 5 × 1019 फोटॉन प्रति सेकण्ड उत्सर्जित होते हैं। प्रत्येक फोटॉन की ऊर्जा ज्ञात कीजिए।

A 20 Watt bulb emits 5 × 1019 photons per second. Find the energy of each photon.

हल:

बल्ब की शक्ति (P) = 20 वॉट = 20 जूल/सेकण्ड

प्रति सेकण्ड उत्सर्जित फोटॉनों की संख्या (n) = 5 × 1019

माना प्रत्येक फोटॉन की ऊर्जा E है।

कुल ऊर्जा = n × E

⇒ 20 = (5 × 1019) × E

⇒ E = 20 / (5 × 1019)

⇒ E = 4 × 10-19 जूल

अतः प्रत्येक फोटॉन की ऊर्जा 4 × 10-19 जूल है।

Explain Bohr's second postulate of quantisation by de Broglie hypothesis.

व्याख्या:

दे ब्रॉग्ली के अनुसार, इलेक्ट्रॉन से जुड़ी एक तरंग होती है। बोर के परमाणु मॉडल में, इलेक्ट्रॉन नाभिक के चारों ओर वृत्ताकार कक्षाओं में घूमता है। दे ब्रॉग्ली ने प्रस्तावित किया कि स्थायी कक्षा वह होती है जिसमें इलेक्ट्रॉन से जुड़ी दे ब्रॉग्ली तरंग एक अपवाही (standing wave) बनाती है।

इसका अर्थ है कि कक्षा की परिधि, दे ब्रॉग्ली तरंगदैर्ध्य (λ) की पूर्णांक गुणज होनी चाहिए।

यदि nवीं कक्षा की त्रिज्या rn है, तो:

2πrn = nλ, जहाँ n = 1, 2, 3, ...

दे ब्रॉग्ली तरंगदैर्ध्य का सूत्र: λ = h / (mvn)

जहाँ vn इलेक्ट्रॉन की चाल है। मान रखने पर:

2πrn = n × (h / mvn)

⇒ mvnrn = n × (h / 2π)

यह बोर के द्वितीय अभिगृहीत (कोणीय संवेग क्वाण्टीकरण) का गणितीय रूप है, जो सिद्ध करता है कि इलेक्ट्रॉन का कोणीय संवेग h/2π का पूर्णांक गुणज होता है।

Derive formula for the electric field due to electric dipole at any point on the equatorial plane. Draw necessary diagram.

Electric field at Equatorial point of a dipole :

As shown in figure, consider an electric dipole consisting of charges –q and +q, separated by distance 2a and placed in vacuum. Let P be a point on the equatorial line of the dipole at distance r from it. OP = r.

(Diagram: Electric field at an equatorial point of a dipole)

Electric field at point P due to +q charge is:

E+q = 14πε₀ · q(r² + a²)   directed along BP

Electric field at point P due to –q charge is:

E–q = 14πε₀ · q(r² + a²)   directed along PA

Thus the magnitudes of E–q and E+q are equal i.e.,

E–q = E+q = 14πε₀ · q(r² + a²)

Clearly, the components of E–q and E+q normal to the dipole axis will cancel out. The components parallel to the dipole axis add up. The total electric field E is opposite to p.

E = –(E+q cos θ + E–q cos θ) = –2E+q cos θ   [∵ E+q = E–q]

Now, cos θ = a√(r² + a²)

E = –2 · 14πε₀ · q(r² + a²) · a√(r² + a²)

E = –14πε₀ · p(r² + a²)3/2 = –k p(r² + a²)3/2

where p = 2aq, is the electric dipole moment. If the point P is located far away from the dipole, r >> a, then

E = –14πε₀ · p = –k p

Clearly, the direction of electric field at any point on the equatorial line of the dipole will be antiparallel to the dipole moment p.

Electric field due to a uniformly charged infinite plane sheet :

Consider an infinite plane sheet of charge with uniform surface charge density σ (C/m²). To find the electric field at a point P at distance r from the sheet, we use Gauss's law.

(Diagram: Gaussian cylinder passing through the sheet)

We choose a cylindrical Gaussian surface of cross-sectional area A, with its axis perpendicular to the sheet and passing through point P. The cylinder extends equally on both sides of the sheet.

By symmetry, the electric field E is perpendicular to the sheet and has the same magnitude at all points equidistant from the sheet. The flux through the curved surface of the cylinder is zero because E is parallel to it.

Flux through each flat end of the cylinder = EA (since E is perpendicular to the surface).

Total electric flux through the Gaussian surface = 2EA

Charge enclosed by the Gaussian surface = σA

Applying Gauss's law:

2EA = σAε₀

E = σ2ε₀

Thus, the electric field due to a uniformly charged infinite plane sheet is independent of distance from the sheet and is directed perpendicularly away from the sheet (for positive σ) or towards the sheet (for negative σ).

Electric field due to a uniformly charged infinite plane sheet

Consider a thin, infinite plane sheet of charge with uniform surface charge density σ. We wish to calculate its electric field at a point P at distance r from it.

Diagram: A plane sheet with cross-sectional area A, and a cylindrical Gaussian surface of cross-sectional area A and length 2r, with its axis perpendicular to the sheet. Points P and P' are equidistant from the sheet on opposite sides.

By symmetry, electric field E points outwards normal to the sheet. Also, it must have the same magnitude and opposite direction at two points P and P' equidistant from the sheet and on opposite sides. We choose a cylindrical Gaussian surface of cross-sectional area A and length 2r with its axis perpendicular to the sheet.

As the lines of force are parallel to the curved surface of the cylinder, the flux through the curved surface is zero. The flux through the plane-end faces of the cylinder is:

φE = EA + EA = 2EA   (A = cross-sectional area of plane-end faces)

Charge enclosed by the Gaussian surface:

q = σA

According to Gauss's theorem:

φE = q / ε₀

2EA = σA / ε₀

E = σ / (2ε₀)

Result: The electric field due to a uniformly charged infinite plane sheet is E = σ / (2ε₀), directed perpendicularly away from the sheet (for positive charge).


Magnetic field on the axis of a current-carrying circular loop (Biot-Savart's law)

Consider a circular loop of wire of radius a carrying current I. Let the plane of the loop be perpendicular to the plane of paper. We wish to find the magnetic field B at an axial point P at a distance r from the centre C.

Diagram: A circular loop of radius a with centre C. Point P is on the axis at distance r from C. A small current element Idℓ on the loop produces magnetic field dB at P. The angle between dℓ and the line joining the element to P is 90°. The component of dB perpendicular to the axis cancels, while the axial component dB cos φ adds up.

Derivation:

From Biot-Savart's law, the magnetic field due to a small current element Idℓ at point P is:

dB = (μ₀ / 4π) × (I dℓ sin θ) / R²

Here, θ = 90° (since dℓ is perpendicular to the line joining element to P), so sin θ = 1. Also, R = √(a² + r²).

dB = (μ₀ / 4π) × (I dℓ) / (a² + r²)

The direction of dB is perpendicular to the plane containing dℓ and R. The component perpendicular to the axis cancels due to symmetry. The axial component is:

dBaxial = dB cos φ

From the geometry, cos φ = a / R = a / √(a² + r²)

So, dBaxial = (μ₀ / 4π) × (I dℓ) / (a² + r²) × a / √(a² + r²)

dBaxial = (μ₀ I a dℓ) / [4π (a² + r²)3/2]

Integrating over the entire loop (∫ dℓ = 2πa):

B = ∫ dBaxial = (μ₀ I a) / [4π (a² + r²)3/2] × 2πa

B = (μ₀ I a²) / [2 (a² + r²)3/2]

Result: The magnetic field at a point on the axis of a circular current loop of radius a carrying current I, at distance r from the centre, is:

B = (μ₀ I a²) / [2 (a² + r²)3/2]

The direction is along the axis, given by the right-hand rule.


OR: Force per unit length between two straight parallel current-carrying conductors

Consider two long, straight, parallel conductors separated by distance d, carrying currents I₁ and I₂ in the same direction.

Diagram: Two parallel wires separated by distance d. Wire 1 carries current I₁ (upward), wire 2 carries current I₂ (upward). The magnetic field B₁ due to wire 1 at the location of wire 2 is directed into the page (by right-hand rule). The force on wire 2 due to B₁ is towards wire 1 (attractive).

Derivation:

The magnetic field produced by conductor 1 at the location of conductor 2 is:

B₁ = (μ₀ I₁) / (2π d)

The force on a length L of conductor 2 due to this field is:

F = I₂ L B₁ sin θ

Here, θ = 90° (current in wire 2 is perpendicular to B₁), so sin θ = 1.

F = I₂ L × (μ₀ I₁) / (2π d)

F = (μ₀ I₁ I₂ L) / (2π d)

Force per unit length:

F/L = (μ₀ I₁ I₂) / (2π d)

Result: The force per unit length between two parallel current-carrying conductors is:

F/L = (μ₀ I₁ I₂) / (2π d)

The force is attractive if currents are in the same direction, and repulsive if currents are in opposite directions.

Magnetic Field on the Axis of a Circular Current Loop

Consider a current element dl at the top of the loop. It has an outward coming current.

If r be the position vector of point P relative to the element dl, then from Biot-Savart law, the field at point P due to the current element is:

dB = (μ₀ / 4π) × (I dl × r) / r³

Since θ = 90° (i.e., dl ⟂ r), therefore:

dB = (μ₀ I dl) / (4π r²)

The field dB lies in the plane of the paper and is perpendicular to r, as shown by PQ. Let φ be the angle between OP and CP. Then dB can be resolved into two rectangular components:

  1. dB sin φ along the axis
  2. dB cos φ perpendicular to the axis

For any two diametrically opposite elements of the loop, the components perpendicular to the axis of the loop will be equal and opposite and will cancel out. Their axial components will be in the same direction, i.e., along CP and get added up.

∴ Total magnetic field at point P in the direction CP is:

B = ∫ dB sin φ

But sin φ = a / r and dB = (μ₀ I dl) / (4π r²)

∴ B = ∫ (μ₀ I dl) / (4π r²) × (a / r) = (μ₀ I a) / (4π r³) ∫ dl

Since μ₀, I, and a are constant, and r and a are same for all points on the circular loop, we have:

B = (μ₀ I a) / (4π r³) × 2πa = (μ₀ I a²) / (2 r³)

[∵ ∫ dl = circumference = 2πa]

Or B = (μ₀ I a²) / [2 (r² + a²)³/²]    [since r² = r² + a²]

As the direction of the field is along +ve X-direction, so we can write:

B = [μ₀ I a² / 2 (r² + a²)³/²] î

If the coil consists of N turns, then:

B = [μ₀ N I a² / 2 (r² + a²)³/²] î

Explanation: This derivation uses the Biot-Savart law to find the magnetic field at a point on the axis of a circular current loop. The perpendicular components cancel due to symmetry, leaving only the axial component. The final expression shows that the field depends on the current (I), radius (a), distance from the center (r), and number of turns (N).

8. Expression for the force between two parallel current-carrying wires

Consider two long parallel wires AB and CD carrying currents I1 and I2. Let r be the separation between them.

Diagram: Two parallel wires AB (left) and CD (right), separated by distance r. Current I1 flows upward in AB, current I2 flows upward in CD. Magnetic field B1 due to wire AB points into the page at wire CD.

The magnetic field produced by current I1 at any point on wire CD is:

B1 = μ0I1 / (2πr)

This field acts perpendicular to wire CD and points into the plane of the paper. It exerts a force on current-carrying wire CD:

F2 = I2 B1 sin 90° = I2 × (μ0I1 / 2πr) × 1 = μ0I1I2 / (2πr)

Force per unit length:

F / L = μ0I1I2 / (2πr)

According to Fleming's left-hand rule, this force acts at right angles to CD, towards AB in the plane of the paper. Similarly, an equal force is exerted on wire AB by the field of wire CD. Thus, when the currents in the two wires are in the same direction, the forces between them are attractive. It can be easily seen that:

F1 = –F2

As shown in the figure, when the current in the two parallel wires flow in opposite directions (anti-parallel), the forces between the two wires are repulsive.

Write the name of device 'Y' in the following given diagram. Explain its working making with circuit diagram.

Given Diagram: A circuit with input signal applied to a device labeled 'Y', which has two outputs: one connected to +2V and the other to –2V. The output is taken from the device.

Solution:

Name of device 'Y': Full Wave Rectifier (or Bridge Rectifier)

Working: A full wave rectifier converts both halves of an AC input signal into a DC output. It uses four diodes arranged in a bridge configuration. During the positive half cycle of the input, two diodes conduct, allowing current to flow through the load in one direction. During the negative half cycle, the other two diodes conduct, again allowing current to flow through the load in the same direction. Thus, the output is a pulsating DC signal.

  • Conduction band (empty) at the top.
  • A donor level (ED) is present very close to the conduction band edge (EC), with energy difference ~0.01 eV.
  • Electrons from donor level easily jump to conduction band, increasing conductivity.

OR

Full Wave Rectifier

Answer: 'Y' is a full wave rectifier.

Explanation: A full wave rectifier uses two p-n junction diodes (D1 and D2) to convert both halves of the AC input into DC output.

Circuit Diagram Description:

  • An AC input source is connected to the primary coil of a center-tapped transformer.
  • The secondary coil has a center tap, providing two equal voltages opposite in phase.
  • Diode D1 is connected to one end of the secondary coil; diode D2 is connected to the other end.
  • The cathodes of both diodes are connected together to the load resistor (RL).
  • The center tap is connected to the other end of the load resistor, completing the circuit.

Working: During the positive half-cycle, D1 is forward biased and conducts; D2 is reverse biased and does not conduct. During the negative half-cycle, D2 conducts and D1 does not. Thus, current flows through the load in the same direction for both half-cycles, producing a pulsating DC output.

खण्ड-द (SECTION - D)

(a) Prove that the peak value (Im) of an alternating current is √2 times its root mean square (rms) value.

Proof:

Let an alternating current be represented by: i = Im sin ωt

The root mean square (rms) value of current is defined as:

Irms = √[ (1/T) ∫0T i² dt ]

Substituting i² = Im² sin² ωt:

Irms² = (1/T) ∫0T Im² sin² ωt dt

Using sin² ωt = (1 - cos 2ωt)/2:

Irms² = (Im²/T) ∫0T (1 - cos 2ωt)/2 dt

Irms² = (Im²/2T) [ ∫0T dt - ∫0T cos 2ωt dt ]

The integral of cos 2ωt over a complete cycle is zero. Therefore:

Irms² = (Im²/2T) × T = Im²/2

Taking square root: Irms = Im/√2

Hence, Im = √2 × Irms (Proved)

(b) If alternating current I = 4 sin ωt and voltage V = 200 sin (ωt + π/3), then calculate the average power dissipated in the circuit.

Solution:

Given: I = 4 sin ωt, V = 200 sin (ωt + π/3)

Peak current, Im = 4 A

Peak voltage, Vm = 200 V

Phase difference between voltage and current, φ = π/3

Average power in an AC circuit is given by:

Pavg = Vrms × Irms × cos φ

Where Vrms = Vm/√2 = 200/√2 V

Irms = Im/√2 = 4/√2 A

cos φ = cos(π/3) = 1/2

Therefore:

Pavg = (200/√2) × (4/√2) × (1/2)

Pavg = (200 × 4)/(2 × 2) = 800/4 = 200 W

Average power dissipated = 200 W


अथवा / OR

(a) Prove that the average power supplied to an inductor over one complete cycle is zero.

Proof:

In a purely inductive AC circuit, current lags voltage by 90° (π/2).

Let voltage: V = Vm sin ωt

Current: I = Im sin (ωt - π/2) = -Im cos ωt

Instantaneous power: p = V × I = Vm sin ωt × (-Im cos ωt)

p = -VmIm sin ωt cos ωt = -(VmIm/2) sin 2ωt

Average power over one complete cycle:

Pavg = (1/T) ∫0T p dt = -(VmIm/2T) ∫0T sin 2ωt dt

The integral of sin 2ωt over a complete cycle is zero.

Hence, Pavg = 0 (Proved)

This shows that the inductor stores energy during one half-cycle and returns it during the next half-cycle, resulting in zero net power consumption.

(b) If in an LCR alternating current circuit R = 24 Ω, XL = 40 Ω and XC = 70 Ω, then find the impedance of the circuit.

Solution:

Given: R = 24 Ω, XL = 40 Ω, XC = 70 Ω

Net reactance, X = XL - XC = 40 - 70 = -30 Ω

Impedance of LCR circuit is given by:

Z = √(R² + X²) = √(24² + (-30)²)

Z = √(576 + 900) = √1476

Z = √(36 × 41) = 6√41 Ω

Impedance of the circuit = 6√41 Ω ≈ 38.42 Ω

Physics (SS-40-2024) – Page 16

Solution (8)

(a) RMS Value of AC:

We have:

\( I_{\text{rms}} = \sqrt{ \frac{1}{T} \int_0^T i^2 \, dt } \)

Let \( i = I_0 \sin \omega t \). Then:

\( I_{\text{rms}}^2 = \frac{1}{T} \int_0^T I_0^2 \sin^2 \omega t \, dt \)

\( = \frac{I_0^2}{T} \int_0^T \frac{1 - \cos 2\omega t}{2} \, dt \)

\( = \frac{I_0^2}{2T} \left[ \int_0^T dt - \int_0^T \cos 2\omega t \, dt \right] \)

\( = \frac{I_0^2}{2T} \left[ T - 0 \right] \) (since integral of cos over a full period is zero)

\( = \frac{I_0^2}{2} \)

Therefore:

\( I_{\text{rms}} = \frac{I_0}{\sqrt{2}} = 0.707 I_0 \)

Thus, the effective or rms value of an AC is \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \) times its peak value.

(b) Power in AC Circuit:

\( P = V_{\text{rms}} I_{\text{rms}} \cos \phi \)


OR

(a) Instantaneous Power in Inductive Circuit:

Instantaneous power is given by \( p = v \cdot i \).

For a purely inductive circuit, \( v = V_0 \sin \omega t \) and \( i = -I_0 \cos \omega t \).

\( p = (V_0 \sin \omega t)(-I_0 \cos \omega t) \)

\( = -V_0 I_0 \sin \omega t \cos \omega t \)

\( = -\frac{V_0 I_0}{2} \sin 2\omega t \)

The average power over one time period is:

\( P_{\text{av}} = \frac{1}{T} \int_0^T p \, dt = -\frac{V_0 I_0}{2} \langle \sin 2\omega t \rangle \)

Since the average value of \(\sin 2\omega t\) over a complete cycle is zero:

\( P_{\text{av}} = 0 \)

(b) Impedance Calculation:

Given: \( R = 24 \, \Omega \), \( X_L = 40 \, \Omega \), \( X_C = 440 \, \Omega \).

Impedance \( Z = \sqrt{R^2 + (X_L - X_C)^2} \)

\( Z = \sqrt{(24)^2 + (40 - 440)^2} \)

\( Z = \sqrt{576 + (-400)^2} \)

\( Z = \sqrt{576 + 160000} \)

\( Z = \sqrt{160576} \)

\( Z \approx 400.72 \, \Omega \)

Solution (First Option): Total Internal Reflection and Mirror Formula

Total Internal Reflection

When a ray of light travels from a denser medium to a rarer medium, and the angle of incidence in the denser medium exceeds the critical angle, the ray is reflected back entirely into the denser medium. This phenomenon is called total internal reflection.

\[\frac{A'B'}{AB} = \frac{B'P}{BP} = \frac{-v}{-u} = \frac{v}{u} \quad \text{(2)}\]

Equating (1) and (2):

\[\frac{-R + v}{-u + R} = \frac{v}{u}\]

Cross-multiplying:

\[u(-R + v) = v(-u + R)\]

\[-uR + uv = -uv + vR\]

\[vR + uR = 2uv\]

Dividing both sides by \(uvR\):

\[\frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{v} = \frac{2}{R}\]

But \(R = 2f\), therefore:

\[\frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{v} = \frac{2}{2f} = \frac{1}{f}\]

Thus, the mirror formula is:

\[\frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{f}\]

Note: A ray diagram should be drawn showing object AB beyond C, image A'B' between C and F, with rays reflecting off the concave mirror.

Lateral Shift & Lens Maker's Formula

OR

The perpendicular distance between the incident ray and the emergent ray is defined as lateral shift.

Assumptions made in the derivation of lens maker's formula:

  1. The lens used is thin so that the distances measured from its optical centre.
  2. The object is a point object placed on the principal axis.
  3. The aperture of the lens is small.
  4. All the rays are paraxial, i.e., they make very small angles with the normal to the lens faces and with the principal axis.

Refraction through a double convex lens

Suppose a point object O is placed on the principal axis in the rarer medium of refractive index μ₁. The ray OM is incident on the first surface ABC. It is refracted along MN, bending towards the normal at this surface. If the second surface ADC were absent, the ray MN would have met the principal axis at I₁. So we can treat I₁ as the real image formed by first surface ABC in the medium of refractive index μ₂.

For refraction at surface ABC, we can write the relation between the object distance u, image distance v₁, and radius of curvature R₁ as:

Equation (1): μ₂/v₁ - μ₁/u = (μ₂ - μ₁)/R₁

For refraction at second surface, I₁ acts as a virtual object placed in the medium of refractive index μ₂ and I is the real image formed in the medium of refractive index μ₁. Therefore, the relation between the object distance v₁, image distance v and radius of curvature R₂ can be written as:

Equation (2): μ₁/v - μ₂/v₁ = (μ₁ - μ₂)/R₂

Adding equation (1) and (2), we get:

Equation (3): μ₁/v - μ₁/u = (μ₂ - μ₁)(1/R₁ - 1/R₂)

If the object is placed at infinity (u = ∞), the image will be formed at the focus, i.e. v = f. Therefore,

Lens Maker's Formula: 1/f = (μ₂/μ₁ - 1)(1/R₁ - 1/R₂)

Or, if the surrounding medium is air (μ₁ = 1), then: 1/f = (μ - 1)(1/R₁ - 1/R₂)
