CBSE Class 12 Physics Solved Question Paper 2016

Short Answer Type

11. Two long, straight, parallel conductors carry steady currents, I₁ and I₂ , separated by a distance . If the currents are flowing in the same direction, show how the magnetic field set up in one produces an attractive force on the other? Obtain the expression for this force. Hence, define one ampere.

13.
Explain the terms (i) Attenuation and (ii) Demodulation used in Communication System.

(i) Attenuation: Attenuation is the process of loss in the strength of signal while propagating through a medium.

(ii) Demodulation: Demodulation is the process of retrieval of information from the carrier wave at the receiver end. It is the reverse process of modulation.
