Electromagnetic Induction
Q- A circular loop with radius a = 0.35 m and N = 21 turns lies in the plane of the page. The wire used in constructing the loop has a resistance per unit length of dR/dl = 0.11 W/m. A spatially uniform magnetic field points into the page. In the interval between t = 0 and 10 s, the strength of this…
Motion: Variable Mass
Q- a small body of mass m0 is projected vertically upwards in a cloud. Its initial speed is √(2gk). During its motion the body picks up moisture from the stationary cloud. Its mass at height x above the point of projection is m0(1+ ρx),where ρ is a +ve constant. Show that the greatest height h sa…
Ray optics: Convex Mirror
Q- If the focal length of a convex mirror be written as -|f|, show that the magnification m of an object at a distance d0 from this mirror is given by m = |f|/(d0+|f|). Based on this relation, explain why your nose looks bigger than the rest of your face when looking into a convex mirror.
Rotational Motion
Q- A top has a moment of inertia equal to 4.00 x 10-4 kg.m2 and is initially at rest. It is free to rotate about the stationary vertical axis AA'. A string wrapped around a peg along the axis of the top, is pulled in such a manner as to maintain a constant tension of 5.57 N. If the string does not s…

Wave Optics: Diffraction
Q- A diffraction grating has 20 slits per mm. The distance between the slit centers is twice the width of each slit. The grating is uniformly illuminated at normal incidence. The transmitted light passes through a lens of focal length 1 m and then onto a screen that lies 1 m from the lens. On the sc…
