17 a) UV radiations ½ +½+
b) Radio waves ½+ ½
c) Infra red radiations
Radio waves > Infra red radiations > UV radiations

18 R= ρ l/A = 4 ρ l/𝜋D2 ½
 R1/R2= ½ x (3/2)2= 9/8 1

Since current remains the same, V1/V2 = R1/R2 = 9/8 ½

19 B1= μ 0I1/2R ½

Φ2 = B1 A2 = μ 0I1/2R x 𝜋 r2= M21 I1 1

M21= μ 0 𝜋 r2/2R ½

OR

Pin = EP IP or IP = Pin / EP = 1100/220 = 5A 1

ES= kEP = 100 × 220 = 22000V 1

20 E2- E1 = K (1/12- 1/22) = K ¾ 1

E ∞- E 2 = K (1/22- 1/∞) = k ¼ 1

Ratio = 3:1

22 For series combination C = CxCy / (Cx+Cy) ½

4 µF = 4C/5, C = 5 µF, Cx = 5 µF , Cy = 20 µF 1

Total charge Q = CV = 4 µF X 15V = 60 µC ½

Vx = Q/ Cx = 60/5 = 12 V Vy = Q/ Cy =60/20 = 3 V ½

Ex/ Ey = (½ QX 2 /CX) / (½ QY 2 /CY) = 20/5 = 4:1 ½

23 Kirchhoff’s laws ½

I3 = I1 + I2 ½
 For upper loop,3 I2- 4 I1 = 1 ½

For 2nd loop,3 I2 + 2 I3 = 3 ½

Solving, I1 = 2/13 A, I2 5/13 A, I3 = 7/13 A 1

OR

For AFEBA, (1+1) I = 3, I = 1.5 A 1

For BEDCB, 1.5 R + 4 x 0 = 3, R = 2Ω 1

V AD= ( 1+ 1) x 1.5 = 3V 1

24 Biot-Savart law ½

Derivation of B 2

Mag.feld at the centre ½

25 Induced emf = NBAω sin ωt ½

Induced emf is same in both loops (B,A and ω are same for both loops) 1

The resistivity of copper is less than aluminium 1

ther therefore current induced is larger in copper loop ½

26 For constructive interference, the distance between the two fringes is given by 1
relation: x = nλ D/d where, n = Order of fringes
2
λ = xd/nD = 1.2x10 x0.28x10 /4x1.4 = 6x10 m
-2 -3 -7

27 The threshold frequency for metal X is less and hence threshold wavelength of 1
metal X will be larger.

As threshold frequency for X is less than that of Y and work function ϕ 0 = h ν0,
hence work function for X is less than that of Y. Lesser the work function, more
will be its K.E. 1
(K.E.) max = h ν – ϕ 0, K.E. of X will be more.

(iii)If the distance between the light source and metal X is halved, frequency of 1
light remains unchanged. Therefore, the K.E. of ejected electron remains
unchanged.
