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

Planning to start your own coaching institute for JEE, NEET, CBSE or Foundation? Here's why not to waste time in developing study material from scratch. Instead use the readymade study material to stay focused on quality of teaching as quality of teaching is the primary job in coaching profession while study material is secondary one. Quality of teaching determines results of your coaching that decides success & future of your coaching while good quality study material is merely a necessary teaching aid that supplements your teaching (video in Hindi)

UNIT 24 - SOLIDS AND SEMICONDUCTORS 1. SOLID STATE ELECTRONICS (SEMICONDUCTORS) (A) Energy bands in solids: (i) In solids, the group of closely lying energy levels is known as energy band. (ii) In solids the energy bands are analogous to energy levels in an atom. (iii) In solids the atoms are arranged very close to each other. In these atoms there are discrete energy levels of electrons. For the formation of crystal these atoms come close together, then due to nucleus-nucleus, electron-electron and electron-nucleus interactions the discrete energy levels of atom distort and consequently each energy level spits into a large number of closely lying energy levels. (iv) The number of split energy levels is proportional to the number of atoms interacting with each other. If two atoms interact then each energy level splits into two out of which one will be somewhat above and another will be somewhat below the main energy level. In solids the number of atoms is very large ( 1023). Hence eac...

5.1 DEFINITION OF CENTRE OF MASS Centre of mass: Every physical system has associated with it a certain point whose motion characterizes the motion of the whole system. When the system moves under some external forces than this point moves as if the entire mass of the system is concentrated at this point and also the external force is applied at his point of translational motion. This point is called the centre of mass of the system. Centre of mass of system of n point masses or n particles is that point about which moment of mass of the system is zero, it means that if about a particular origin the moment of mass of system of n point masses is zero, then that particular origin is the centre of mass of the system. The concept of centre of mass is a pure mathematical concept. If there are n particles having mass m1, m2 ….m n and are placed in space (x1, y1, z1), (x2, y2, z2) ……….(x n, y n, z n) then centre of mass of system is defined as (X, Y, Z) where = Y = and Z = where...
