Current Electricity-07 PROBLEMS

PROBLEMS 1. A thin uniform wire AB of length 1 m, an unknown resistance X and a resistance of 12 Ω are connected by thick conducting strips, as shown in the figure. A battery and a galvanometer (with a sliding jockey connected to it) are also available. Connections are to be made to measure the un- known resistance X using the principle of Wheatstone bridge. Answer the following questions: (a) Are there positive and negative terminals on the galvanometer ? (b) Copy the figure in your answer book and show the battery and the galvanometer (with jockey) connected at appropriate points. (c) After appropriate connections are made it is found that no deflection takes place in the galva- nometer when the sliding jockey touches the wire at a distance of 60 cm from A. Obtain the value of the resistance X. A B C D 2. Two capacitors A and B with capacities 3 μF and 2 μF are charged to a potential difference of 100V and 180V respectively. The plates of the capacitors are connected as shown in the figure with one wire of each capacitor free. The upper plate of A is positive and that of B is negative. An uncharged 2 μF capacitor C with lead wired falls on the free ends to complete the circuit. Calculate: 2F C + 3F A - 2F B (i) The final charge on the three capacitor, and (ii) the amount of electrostatic energy stored in the system before and the completion of the circuit. 3. An electrical circuit is shown in figure. Calculate the potential difference across the resistor of 400 ohm as will be measured by the voltmeter V of resistance 400 ohm either by applying Kirchoff’s rules or otherwise. l2 10 V

Q.31 Two trains, which are moving along different tracks in opposite directions towards each other, are put on the same track due to a mistake. Their drivers, on noticing the mistake, start slowing down the trains when the trains are 300 m apart. Graphs given below show their velocities as function of time as the trains slow down. The separation between the trains when both have stopped, is: (A) 120 m (B) 280 m (C) 60 m (D*) 20 m 1 [Sol: x1 = 2 1 × 10 × 40 = 200 m; x2 = – 2 × 8 × 20 = –80 m  xreletive = x1 + x2 = 280  separation = 300 – 280 = 20 m (D) ] Q.32 One end of a thin uniform rod of length L and mass M is riveted to the centre of a uniform circular disc of radius r and mass 2 M so that the rod is normal to the disc.

8.1 (D) The maximum angular speed of the hoop corresponds to the situation when the bead is just about to slide upwards. The free body diagram of the bead is For the bead not to slide upwards. m2 (r sin 45°) cos 45° – mg sin 45° < N (1) where N = mg cos 45° + m2 (r sin 45º) sin 45° (2) From 1 and 2 we get.  = rad / s. 8.2 (C) Let v be the speed of particle at B, just when it is about to loose contact. From application of Newton's second law to the particle normal to the spherical surface. mv2 = mg sin  (1) r Applying conservation of energy as the block moves from A to B.. 1 mv2 = mg (r cos  – r sin ) (2) 2 Solving 1 and 2 we get 3 sin  = 2 cos  8.3 (A) As the mass is at the verge of slipping ∴ mg sin37 –  mg cos37 = m2r 6 – 8 = 4.5   = 3 16 8.4 (B) As when they collide vt  1  72v 2  2 2  25R   R = vt  t =   5R 6v Now angle covered by A =   vt R 11 Put t  angle covered by A = 6 8.5 (C) The acceleration vector s

4. THEORY-Current Electrictricity

CURRENT ELECTRICITY  1 . ELECTRIC CURRENT (a) Time rate of flow of charge through a cross sectional area is called Current. if q charge flows in time interval t then average current is given by q Iav = t and Instantaneous current i =. lim q  dq t0 t dt (b) Direction of current is along the direction of flow of positive charge or opposite to the direction of flow of negative charge. But the current is a scalar quantity. i i q+ velocity q– velocity SI unit of current is ampere and 1 Ampere = 1 coloumb/sec 1 coloumb/sec = 1A 2 . CONDUCTOR In some materials, the outer electrons of each atom or molecule are only weakly bound to it. These electrons are almost free to move throughout the body of the material and are called free electrons. They are also known as conduction electrons. When such a material is placed in an electric field, the free electrons drift in a direction opposite to the field. Such materials are called conductors. 3 . INSULATOR Another class o
