 Multiple Choice QuestionsLong Answer Type

31.

a) A convex lens of focal length 5 cm is used as a simple microscope. Where should an object be placed so that the image formed by it lies at the least distance of distinct vision (D = 25 cm)?

b) Draw a labelled diagram showing the formation of an image by a refracting telescope when the final image lies t infinity.


32.

a) Monochromatic light of wavelength 198 nm is incident on the surface of a metallic cathode whose work function is 2.5 eV. How much potential difference must be applied between the cathode and the anode of a photocell to just stop the photo current from flowing?

b) i) What is de-broglie hypothesis?
ii) What conclusion can be drawn from Davisson and Germer's experiment?


33.

a) i) How are various lines of lyman series formed? Explain on the basis of Bohr's theory.
ii) Calculate the shortest wavelength of electromagnetic radiation present in Balmer series of hydrogen spectrum.

b) State the effect of the following changes on the X-rays emitted by Coolidge X-ray tube:

34.

a) Half life of a certain radioactive material is 8 hours.
i) Find disintegration constant of this material.
ii) If one starts with 60 g of this substance, how much of it will disintegrate in one day?

b) Sketch a graph showing the variation of binding energy per nucleon of a nucleus with its mass number.


a) Given:

Half life period of radioactive material is 8 hours.

We know that,

straight K space equals space fraction numerator 0.6932 over denominator straight T end fraction
space space space equals space fraction numerator 0.6932 over denominator 8 end fraction
space space space equals space 0.8665 space per space hour

ii) Given,

Initial weight = 600 g
Half life period = 8 hour
Number of half lives in one day(n) = 24 over 8 equals 3
We know that,

straight N space equals space straight N subscript straight o open parentheses 1 half close parentheses to the power of straight n
equals 600 space straight x space open parentheses 1 half close parentheses cubed
equals space 600 space straight x space 1 over 8
N = 75 g

Therefore, amount of substance disintegrate in one day is given by,

N = 600 - 75 = 525 g

b) The binding energy per nucleon of a nucleus with its mass number is given below:
