A circular coil of cross-sectional area 200 cm2 and 20 turns is rotated about the vertical diameter with angular speed of 50 rad s−1 in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 3.0 × 10−2T. Calculate the maximum value of the current in the coil.
A wire whose cross-sectional area is increasing linearly from its one end to the other, is connected across a battery of V volts.
Which of the following quantities remain constant in the wire?
(a) drift speed
(b) current density
(c) electric current
(d) electric field
Define the distance of closest approach. A α-particle of kinetic energy 'K' is bombarded on a thin gold foil. The distance of the closest approach is 'r'. What will be the distance of closest approach for a α-particle of double the kinetic energy?
Which basic mode of communication is used in satellite communication? What type of wave propagation is used in this mode? Write, giving a reason, the frequency range used in this mode of propagation.
There are two basic modes of communication which are used in satellite communication:
(i) point-to-point and broadcast- In the broadcast mode, there are a large number of receivers corresponding to a single transmitter. Satellite communication is an example of the broadcast mode of communication.
(ii) Space wave mode of propagation: In the frequency range 30 MHz to 1000 Mhz, the wavelengths are in the range of 30 cm to 10 m. At these wavelengths the diffraction of waves is high and the waves lose their directional property. So frequency range of 5.925 - 6.425 GHz is used in satellite communication.
(i) Obtain the expression for the cyclotron frequency.
(ii) A deuteron and a proton are accelerated by the cyclotron. Can both be accelerated with the same oscillator frequency? Give reason to justify your answer.
