Q. 1.

  1. How many photons of wavelength 439 nm should strike on a perfectly reflecting surface in 1 second so that it may exert a force of 10N?
  2. Can water be boiled without heating?

Sol.

  1. When photon incident on perfectly reflecting surface then change in momentum per second
    Let n photons incident per second then force exerted,
  2. On increasing pressure onto the surface of water in a pressure cooker its boiling point is elevated, similarly on decreasing pressure in a vessel containing water its boiling point will be lowered and water will begin to boil without supplying heat.

Q. 2.

  1. When 4 amp current flows through battery from positive to negative terminal potential difference is 12V obtained when 2 amp current passes from negative to positive terminal of the battery potential difference 9V is obtained, calculate emf and internal resistance of the battery.
  2. A small pulley of radius 20 cm and moment of inertia 0.32 kg m2 is used to hang a 2kg mass with the help of massless string. If this load is released then calculate acceleration of the block.

Sol.

  1. In first case, cell is Charging so, V = E + Ir ;
    12 = E + 4´r …..(i)

    In 2nd case, cell is discharging so, V = E - Ir ;
    9 = E - 2 ´r …(ii)

    Subtracting (ii) from (i)
    by putting value of r in equation (ii)
