Q. 2. (i) Causes of turbulent flow :
(1) An obstruction, or sharp edge such as in a tap, creates turbulence by imparting
velocities perpendicular to the flow.
(2) If the speed with which a fluid moves relative to a solid body is increased
beyond a certain critical velocity, the flow becomes unstable or one of
extreme disorder.

(v) When a stationary wave is set up in a bounded medium, the boundary conditions
limit the possible stationary waves and only a discrete set of frequencies is
allowed.
The higher allowed frequencies are called the overtones. Above the fundamental,
the first allowed frequency is called the first overtone, the next higher frequency
is the second overtone, and so on. The relation between overtones and allowed
harmonics depends on the system under consideration.

For an ideal solenoid, the magnetic induction lB inside is reasonably uniform over the
cross section and parallel to the axis throughout the volume enclosed by the solenoid;
lB outside is negligible.
As an Ampèrian loop, we choose a rectangular path PQRS of length l parallel to the
solenoid axis as shown in the figure. The width of the rectangle is taken to be sufficiently
large so that the side RS is far from the solenoid where lB 0. The line integral of the

Q. 21. Consider a particle which moves anticlockwise around a circular path of radius A with
a constant angular speed as shown in the figure. Let the path lie in the x-y plane
with the centre at the origin O. The instantaneous position P of the particle is called
the reference point and the circle in which the particle moves as the reference circle.
The perpendicular projection of P onto the y-axis is Q. Then, as the particle travels
around the circle, Q moves to-and-fro along the y-axis. Line OP makes an angle with
the x-axis at t 0. At time t, this angle becomes t .

Q. 26. According to the wave theory of light, electromagnetic waves carry the energy stored
in oscillating electric and magnetic fields. When enough energy is absorbed by an
electron in a substance, it should be liberated as a photoelectron. Frequency of light
does not come into picture in this case. Hence, there should not be any threshold
frequency for emission of electrons. But it is found that there exists threshold frequency
and it depends on the metal.
Experimentally, the maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons increases linearly with
the frequency of light. This cannot be accounted by the wave theory of light.
If a source of light is weak or far away from a metal surface, emission of an electron
will not be almost instantaneous. The electron may have to wait for several hours/days
for absorption of enough energy from the incident light as by the wave theory of light,
energy is spread over the wavefront. But experimentally, for an appropriate frequency
of incident light, photoelectric effect is almost instantaneous.
Only one observation, photoelectric current intensity of incident light can be
accounted by the wave theory of light.

Q. 27. A photodiode is a special purpose reverse-biased pn-junction diode that generates
charge carriers in response to photons and high energy particles, and passes a
photocurrent in the external circuit proportional to the intensity of the incident radiation.
Planar photodiode
A photodiode is operated in the reverse bias mode which results in a wider depletion
region. When operated in the dark (zero illumination), there is a reverse saturation
current due solely to the thermally generated minority charge carriers. This is called
the dark current.
When exposed to radiation of energy h EG (in the range near-UV to near-IR),
electron-hole pairs are created in the depletion region. The electric field in the depletion
layer accelerates these photo-generated electrons and holes towards the n side and
p side, respectively, constituting a photocurrent I in the external circuit from the p side
to the n side. Due to the photogeneration, more charge carriers are available for
conduction and the reverse current is increased. The photocurrent is directly proportional
to the intensity of the incident light. It is independent of the reverse bias voltage.
Q. 28. A magnet free to rotate in a uniform magnetic field lB aligns its dipole moment M

Q. 31. A moving-coil galvanometer is converted into a voltmeter by increasing its effective
resistance by connecting a high resistance Rs in series with the galvanometer as shown
in the figure. The series resistance is also useful for changing the range of any given
voltmeter and hence called a series multiplier.
Let G be the resistance of the galvanometer coil and Ig the current required for a full-
scale deflection.
Let V be the maximum potential difference to be measured. The value of the series
resistance Rs should be such that when the potential difference applied across the
instrument is V, the current through the galvanometer is Ig.
In the series combination, the potential difference V gets divided across the galvanometer
( resistance, G ) and the resistance Rs :
V IgG IgRs Ig (G Rs )

This is the required value of the series resistance. The scale of the galvanometer is
then calibrated so as to read the potential difference in volt or its submultiples directly.

Q. 16. A device or a circuit which rectifies both halves of each cycle of an alternating voltage
is called a full-wave rectifier.
Electric circuit : The alternating voltage to be rectified is applied across the primary
coil (P1P2) of a transformer with a centre-tapped secondary coil (S1S2). The terminals S1
and S2 of the secondary are connected to the two p-regions of two junction diodes D1
and D2, respectively. The centre-tap T is connected to the ground. The load resistance RL
is connected across the common n-regions and the ground.

Join Telegram:- @NOTESPROVIDER12TH_BOARD
Working : During one half cycle of the input, terminal S1 of the secondary is positive
while S2 is negative with respect to the ground ( the centre-tap T ). During this half
cycle, diode D1 is forward biased and conducts, while diode D2 is reverse biased and
does not conduct. The direction of current IL through RL is in the sense shown.
During the next half cycle of the input voltage, S2 becomes positive while S1 becomes
negative with respect to T. Diode D2 now conducts sending a current I L through RL in
the same sense as before. D1 now does not conduct. Thus, the current through RL flows
in the same sense, i.e., it is unidirectional, for both halves or the full-wave of the input.
This is called full-wave rectification.
The output voltage has a fixed polarity but varies periodically with time between zero
and a maximum value. Figure shows the input and output voltage waveforms. The
pulsating dc output voltage of a full-wave rectifier has twice the frequency of the ac
input.

Q. 21. Metre bridge :
Construction : A rectangular wooden board has three thick copper strips along its
three edges. A uniform resistance wire, one metre long, is soldered to the two end
copper strips and stretched over a metre scale between them. The unknown resistance
X and a variable resistance R are connected in the two gaps between the end-strips and
the centre strip. The common point of X and R, junction B, is connected through a
centre-zero galvanometer G to a pencil jockey. A cell of emf E, in series with a rheostat
Rh and a plug key K, is connected across AC as shown in the figure.
Working : Keeping a suitable resistance (R) in the resistance box, key K is closed to
pass a current through the circuit.
The jockey is tapped along the wire to locate the equipotential point D when the
galvanometer shows zero deflection. The bridge is then balanced and point D is called
the null point and the method is called as null deflection method. The distances LX
and LR of the null point from the two ends of the wire are measured.

Q. 27. Consider a car taking a left turn along a road of radius r banked at an angle for a
designed optimum or most safe speed vo . Let m be the mass of the car. In general, the
forces acting on the car are
, acting vertically down
(a) its weight mg
(b) the normal reaction of the road N , perpendicular to the road surface
(c) the frictional force fs along the inclined surface of the road.
At the optimum speed, frictional force is not relied upon to contribute to the necessary
lateral centripetal force. Thus, ignoring fs , resolve N into two perpendicular
components : N cos vertically up and N sin horizontally towards the centre of the
circular path. Since there is no acceleration in the vertical direction, N cos balances
mg and N sin provides the necessary centripetal force.

Q. 3. A car while taking a turn performs circular motion. If the road is level (or horizontal
road), the necessary centripetal force is the force of static friction between the car tyres
and the road surface.
The friction depends upon the nature of the surfaces in contact and the presence of oil
and water on the road. If the friction is inadequate, a speeding car may skid off the
road. Since the friction changes with circumstances, it cannot be relied upon to provide
the necessary centripetal force. Moreover, friction results in fast wear and tear of the
tyres.
To avoid the risk of skidding as well as to reduce the wear and tear of the car tyres,
the road surface at a bend is tilted inward, i.e., the outer side of the road is raised
above its inner side. This is called banking of a road. On a banked road, the resultant
of the normal reaction and the gravitational force can act as the necessary centripetal
force. Thus, every car can be safely driven on such a banked curve at certain optimum
speed, without depending on friction. Hence, a road should be properly banked at a
bend.

Q. 5. An atomizer is a device which entraps or entrains liquid droplets in a flowing gas. Its
working is based on Bernoulli’s principle. A squeeze bulb or a pump is used to create
a jet of air over a narrow open tube dipped into a liquid. By Bernoulli’s principle, the
high-velocity air stream creates low pressure at the open end of the tube. This causes
the liquid to rise in the tube. The liquid is then dispersed into a fine spray of droplets.
This type of system is used in a perfume bottle, a paint sprayer, insect and perfume
sprays and an automobile carburetor.
Q. 6. Principle of a capacitor : Any conductor can be used to store charges, however, its

to plate A, then negative bound charge Q will be induced on the surface of B near
A and positive free charge Q on the other side of B, Fig. (a).

Principle of a capacitor
If plate B is grounded, i.e., connected to the Earth, the free charge on it will escape to
the Earth, Fig. (b). The bound charge (Q) thus remaining on B will lower the
potential of A, as if superimposing a potential V1 on the potential V of plate A. The
resultant potential of A will become V – V1, and its capacity will be Q / ( V V1 ).

current through it, the potential difference (p.d.) across the resistor is considered
negative. If we traverse the resistor opposite to the current through it, the p.d. is
considered positive.
(2) In going round a loop, if we traverse a cell from its negative terminal to the
positive terminal, the emf of the cell is considered positive while it is taken as
negative if we traverse in the opposite direction.

Q. 17. Atoms of a ferromagnetic material have a permanent non-zero magnetic dipole moment,
arising mainly from spin magnetic moments of the electrons.
According to the domain theory, a ferromagnetic material is composed of small regions
called domains.
A domain is an extremely small region containing a large number (something like 1015
atoms as in common iron) of atoms.
Within each domain, the atomic magnetic moments of nearest-neighbour atoms interact
strongly through exchange interaction (a quantum mechanical phenomenon) and
align themselves parallel to each other even in the absence of an external magnetic
field. A domain is, therefore, spontaneously magnetized to saturation.
In an unmagnetized material, however, the directions of magnetization of the different
domains are so oriented that the net magnetization is zero.
When an external magnetic field is applied, the resultant magnetization of the specimen
increases. This is achieved in either of two ways : Either a domain that is favourably
oriented grows in size at the expenses of a less favourably oriented domain, or the
direction of magnetization of an entire domain changes and aligns along the external
magnetic field.
When a weak magnetic field is applied, favourably oriented domains grow in size by
domain boundary displacement, Fig. (b). In strong fields, the domains change their
magnetization by domain rotation, Figs. (c) and (d). If domains reach perfect alignment,
as in Fig. (d), the domains merge into one large domain.
After the external field is removed, it may be energetically favourable for a domain’s
direction of magnetization to persist. Then, the specimen has a permanent magnetic

existence of permanent magnets.
Q. 18. Max Planck put forward the quantum theory in 1900 to explain blackbody spectrum.
In the theory, he proposed that the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the body
consists of discrete concentrated bundles of energy, each equal to h, where h is a
universal constant (now called Planck’s constant) and is the frequency of the radiation.
Einstein put forth (1905) that these energy quanta, called light quanta, later called
photons, interact with matter much like a particle. When a photon collides with an
electron in an atom, the electron absorbs whole of the photon energy h in a single
collision or nothing. The electron uses this energy (1) to liberate itself from the atom,
(2) to overcome the potential energy barrier at the surface thus liberating itself from
the metal, and (3) retains the remaining part as its kinetic energy. Different electrons
need different energies in the first two processes. There are some electrons which use
minimum energy in the two processes, and hence come out of the metal with maximum
kinetic energy. The minimum energy required, in the form of electromagnetic radiation,
to free an electron from a metal is called the photoelectric work function y0 of that
metal. Thus, for the most energetic photoelectrons at the time of emission,
maximum kinetic energy of the electron
photon energy photoelectric work function
1 1
mv2max h y0 h y0 mv 2max
2 2
The above equation is called Einstein’s photoelectric equation.
Light interacts with matter as concentrated bundles of energy rather than energy spread
over a Huygens type wavefront. Even under weak irradiation, an electron absorbs a
photon’s energy in a single collision. But the rate of incident photons in dim light
being less, the chances of such absorption diminish and consequently the photoelectric
current diminishes. However, a photoelectron is emitted as soon as a photon is absorbed.
Q. 19. With a potential difference applied across a uniform resistance wire, potential gradient
along the wire is defined as the fall of potential (or potential drop) from the high
potential end per unit length of the wire.
V
A potential di昀昀erence V is used to set up a potential gradient across a potentiometer
L
wire AB of length L, as shown. One end of a device is connected to the higher potential
terminal A and the other end to a sliding contact P on the wire AB. For a uniform
potential gradient, the voltage V divides into VAP and VPB in proportion to their lengths
l1 and l2. The potential di昀昀erence across the device is VAP ( ) l1 so that, by using
V
L
the slider, the potential di昀昀erence across the device can be changed from 0 to V.

Q. 20. Principle : In the breakdown region of a Zener diode, for widely changing Zener
current, the voltage across the Zener diode remains almost constant.
Electric circuit : The circuit for regulating or stabilizing the voltage across a load
resistance RL against change in load current and supply voltage is shown in the figure.
The Zener diode is connected parallel to load RL such that the current through the
Zener diode is from the n to p region. The series resistance Rs limits the current
through the diode below the maximum rated value.
From the circuit, I IZ IL
and V IRs VZ ( IZ IL ) Rs VZ
Working : When the input unregulated dc voltage V across the Zener diode is greater
than the Zener voltage VZ in magnitude, the diode works in the Zener breakdown
region. The voltage across the diode and load RL is then VZ. The corresponding current
in the diode is IZ.
As the load current (I ) or supply voltage (V ) changes, the diode current (IZ ) adjusts
itself at constant VZ. The excess voltage V – VZ appears across the series resistance Rs.
For constant supply voltage, the supply current I and the voltage drop across Rs remain
constant. If the diode is within its regulating range, an increase in load current is
accompanied by a decrease in IZ at constant VZ .
Since the voltage across RL remains constant at VZ , the Zener diode acts as a voltage
stabilizer or voltage regulator.

Q. 30. An ideal fluid is one that has the following properties :
(1) It is incompressible, i.e., its density has a constant value throughout the fluid.
(2) Its flow is irrotational, i.e., the flow is steady or laminar. In an irrotational flow,
the fluid does not rotate like in a whirlpool and the velocity of the moving fluid
at a specific point does not change over time. (Many fluids change from laminar
to turbulent flow as the speed of the fluid increases above some specific value.
This can dramatically change the properties of the fluid.)
(3) Its flow is nonviscous or inviscid, i.e., internal friction or viscosity is zero so that
no energy is lost due to the motion of the fluid.

Q. 31. Theorem of parallel axis : The moment of inertia of a body about an axis is equal to

O. Let h be the distance between the two axes.
Consider an infinitesimal mass element dm of the body at a point P. It is at a perpendicular
distance CP from the rotation axis through C and a perpendicular distance OP from
the parallel axis through O. The MI of the element about the axis through C is CP2 dm.
Therefore, the MI of the body about the axis through the CM is ICM CP2 dm.
Similarly, the MI of the body about the parallel axis through O is I OP2 dm.

Q. 18. Consider a fluid in steady or streamline flow. The velocity of the fluid within a flow
tube, while everywhere parallel to the tube, may change its magnitude. Suppose the
velocity is v 1 at point P and v 2 at point Q. If A1 and A2 are the cross-sectional areas
of the tube and 1 and 2 are the densities of the fluid at these two points, the mass
of the fluid passing per unit time across A1 is A11v1 and that passing across A2 is
A22v2. Since no fluid can enter or leave through the boundary of the tube, the
conservation of mass requires
A11v1 A22v2 ... (1)
Equation (1) is called the equation of continuity of flow. It holds true for a compressible
fluid, (like all gases) for which the density of the fluid may differ from point to point
in a tube of flow. For an incompressible fluid (like all liquids), 1 2 and Eq. (1)

that is, the flow speed is inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area of a flow
tube. Where the area is large, the speed of flow is small, and vice versa.

is constant throughout.

(1) The cell, whose emf is being measured, draws no current from the circuit at the
null point. Thus, the potentiometer measures the open-circuit potential difference
across its terminals, or the emf E. A voltmeter will measure the terminal potential
difference, V, of the cell in a closed circuit. This is because the resistance of a
voltmeter is high but not infinite and hence the voltmeter is not ideal.
(2) By setting up a suitably small potential gradient along a long potentiometer wire,
any small voltage can be measured. Increasing the length of the wire effectively
decreases the potential gradient, and increases both the precision and accuracy of
measurement.
(3) The adjustment of a potentiometer is a ‘null’ method which does not, in any way,
depend on the calibration of the galvanometer. The galvanometer is used only to
detect the current, not to measure it. The accuracy of a voltmeter is limited by its
calibration.

The collector is kept at a positive potential with respect to the emitter. When UV
radiation or visible light of frequency greater than the threshold frequency for the
emitter surface is incident on the emitter, the ejected photoelectrons are focused by the
cylindrical emitter (cathode) towards the collector (anode). The photoelectrons collected
by the collector constitute a photocurrent which may be measured by a microammeter
in series with the photocell, as in an exposure meter or lux meter. Otherwise, the
photocurrent is used to operate a relay circuit as in an alarm, or to drive the coils of a
speaker as in reading an optical sound track in a cine film. The photocurrent becomes

the high potential terminal A. The negative terminals of the cells are connected to a
galvanometer G through a two-way key. The other terminal of the galvanometer is

(3) The coefficient of transmission or transmittance or transmissive power of a
body is the ratio of the quantity of radiant energy transmitted by the body to the
quantity of radiant energy incident on the body in the same time.
Relation between the coefficients :
Let Q be the quantity of radiant energy incident on a body and Qa , Qr and Qt be the
quantities of radiant energy absorbed, reflected and transmitted by the body respectively,
in the same time. Since the total energy is conserved, we have,

Q. 29. Fresnel’s biprism : It is a single prism having an obtuse angle of about 178° and the
other two angles of about 1° each. The biprism acts as two thin prisms of refracting
angle of about 1°. A narrow slit, illuminated by monochromatic light, is aligned parallel
to the refracting edge of the biprism.

Q. 31. A charge q moving with a velocity lv through a magnetic field of induction lB experiences
a magnetic force perpendicular both to lB and lv. Experimental observations show that
the magnitude of the force is proportional to the magnitude of lB, the speed of the
particle, the charge q and the sine of the angle between lv and lB. That is, in magnitude,
the magnetic force, Fm q vBsin
lFmq (lvlB)
If the charged particle moves through a region of space where both electric and
magnetic fields are present, both fields exert forces on the particle.
The total force on a moving charge in electric and magnetic fields is called the Lorentz
force :
Special cases :
(i) lv is parallel or antiparallel to lB : In this case, Fm qvB sin 0° 0. That is, the
magnetic force on the charge is zero.
(ii) The charge is stationary (v 0) : In this case, even if q0 and B0,
Fm q(0)B sin 0. That is, the magnetic force on a stationary charge is zero.

This force is attractive if the currents are in the same direction and repulsive if the
currents are in the opposite directions.
