Q4.A steel railroad track has a length of 30.000 m when the temperature is 0.0∘C.Suppose that the ends of the rail are rigidly clamped at 0.0∘C so that expansion is prevented. What is the thermal stress set up in the rail if its temperature is raised to 40.0∘C? α−steel=11×10−6
A physical quantity P is related to four observables a, b, c and d as follows : P=a3b2c√d The percentage errors of measurement in a, b, c and d are 1%, 3%, 4% and 2%, respectively. What is the percentage error in the quantity P?
Answer : Option AExplaination / Solution:
Value of P is given as 3.763.
By rounding off the given value to the first decimal place,
we get P = 3.8.
Q6.You have a 200.0 Ω resistor, a 0.400-H inductor, 5.0 μF a capacitor, and a variable frequency ac source with an amplitude of 3.00 V. You connect all four elements together to form a series circuit. Current amplitude at an angular frequency of 400 rad/s is
Answer : Option CExplaination / Solution: No Explaination.
Q10.A uniform electric field and a uniform magnetic field are produced, pointed in the same direction. An electron is projected with its velocity pointed in the same direction
Answer : Option AExplaination / Solution: The force experienced by an electron in a combined action of magnetic and electric fields is F⃗ =−e(v⃗ ×B⃗ +E⃗ ).Since the electron moves in the same direction of the magnetic field, it experiences no force due to the magnetic field.−e(v⃗ ×B⃗ )=0.The electron is not deflected from its straight line path. The total force on the electron.F⃗ =−e(E⃗ ).It experiences a force opposite to the direction of the electric field and to its direction of motion. The electron suffers retardation and its velocity decreases.
