Question-wise Detailed Solution

PHYSICS

1 In series R– L– C circuit, the rms voltage across the resistor and inductor are respectively 400 V and 700 V. If the equation for
the applied voltage is E = 500√2 sin ωt, then the peak voltage across the capacitor is -

Solution

2 2 2
V + (VL − VC ) = Erms
R

2 2 2
(VL −  VC ) = (500) −  (400)

2 2
VL − VC = √(500) − (400) = 300

VC = VL −  300 = 700 −  300 = 400

∴ VC (peak) = √2VC = √2 × 400 volts

2 An inductor of inductance 2. 0 mH is connected across a charged capacitor of capacitance 5. 0 μF and the resulting L-C circuit
is set oscillating at its natural frequency. Let Q denote the instantaneous charge on the capacitor and I the current in the
circuit. It is found that the maximum value of Q is 200 μC

When I is equal to one-half its maximum value, what is the value of |Q |? (in 10 -4 C)

Solution
This is a problem of L - C oscillations.

Charge stored in the capacitor oscillates simple harmonically as

Q = Q 0   sin (ωt ± ϕ)

Here, Q 0 = maximum value of Q = 200 μC = 2 x 10 -4 C

Q = 200μC or Q 0 when cos (ωt) = 1 i. e, ωt = 0, 2π.....

At this time I (t) = −Q ωsinωt

0

Or I (t) = 0                  (sin 0 = sin 2π = 0)

14 Two circular coils can be arranged in any of the three situations shown in figure. their mutual inductance will be

 Solution

As the mutual inductance of two coils will be maximum when there is minimum leakage of magnetic flux. In situation (1) we find that,
magnetic flux linked with one coil threads fully through the other coil.

∴ Mutual inductance is maximum in situation (1)

Therefore the answer is (A).
