Current passing through a wire as function of time is given as I(t)=0.02t+0.01 AI(t)=0.02 t+0.01 \mathrm{~A}. The charge that will flow through the wire from t=1 st=1 \mathrm{~s} to t=2 st=2 \mathrm{~s} is
A 0.02 C
B 0.07 C
C 0.06 C
D 0.04 C
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

To find the total charge q q that flows through the wire from t=1s t = 1 \, \text{s} to t=2s t = 2 \, \text{s} , we can integrate the current function I(t)=0.02t+0.01A I(t) = 0.02t + 0.01 \, \text{A} over this interval.

The formula for the charge q q flowing through the wire is given by the integral of the current with respect to time: q=I(t)dt q = \int I(t) \, dt We integrate the function from t=1 t = 1 to t=2 t = 2 : q=12(0.02t+0.01)dt q = \int_1^2 (0.02t + 0.01) \, dt To solve this, first find the antiderivative: q=[0.02t22+0.01t]12 q = \left[ 0.02 \dfrac{t^2}{2} + 0.01t \right]_1^2 Calculate the expression at the upper and lower bounds: =[0.01t2+0.01t]12 = \left[ 0.01t^2 + 0.01t \right]_1^2 Plug in the values: For t=2 t = 2 : =0.01(2)2+0.01(2)=0.04+0.02=0.06 = 0.01(2)^2 + 0.01(2) = 0.04 + 0.02 = 0.06 For t=1 t = 1 : =0.01(1)2+0.01(1)=0.01+0.01=0.02 = 0.01(1)^2 + 0.01(1) = 0.01 + 0.01 = 0.02 Subtract the result at t=1 t=1 from the result at t=2 t=2 : q=0.060.02=0.04C q = 0.06 - 0.02 = 0.04 \, \text{C} Therefore, the charge that flows through the wire from t=1s t = 1 \, \text{s} to t=2s t = 2 \, \text{s} is 0.04C 0.04 \, \text{C} .

Q132
A 50 Ω\Omega resistance is connected to a battery of 5 V. A galvanometer of resistance 100 Ω\Omega is to be used as an ammeter to measure current through the resistance, for this a resistance rs is connected to the galvanometer. Which of the following connections should be employed if the measured current is within 1% of thecurrent without the ammeter in the circuit ?
A rs = 0.5 Ω\Omega in parallel with the galvanometer
B rs = 0.5 Ω\Omega in series with the galvanometer
C rs = 1 Ω\Omega in series with galvanometer
D rs =1 Ω\Omega in parallel with galvanometer
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Current in the circuit without ammeter I ==

550=0.1{5 \over {50}} = 0.1

A \therefore With ammeter current == 0.1 ×\times

99100{{99} \over {100}}

= 0.099 A With ammeter equivalent resistance, Req = 50 +

100rs100+rs{{100\,{r_s}} \over {100 + {r_s}}}

\therefore 0.099 =

550+100rs100+rs{5 \over {50 + {{100\,{r_s}} \over {100 + {r_s}}}}}

\Rightarrow 50 +

100rs100+rs{{100\,{r_s}} \over {100 + {r_s}}}

=

50.099{5 \over {0.099}}

\Rightarrow

100rs100+rs=0.5{{100\,{r_s}} \over {100 + {r_s}}} = 0.5

\Rightarrow 100 rs = 50 + 0.5rs \Rightarrow 99.5 rs = 50 \Rightarrow rs ==

5099.5=0.5Ω{{50} \over {99.5}} = 0.5\,\Omega

Q137
In a circuit for finding the resistance of a galvanometer by half deflection method, a 6 V battery and a high resistance of 11 kΩ\Omega are used. The figure of merit of the galvanometer is 60 μA/\mu A/division. In the absence of shunt resistance, the galvanometer produces a deflection of θ\theta = 9 divisions when current flows in the circuit. The value of the shunt resistance that can cause the deflection of θ/2,\theta /2, is closest to :
A 500 Ω\Omega
B 220 Ω\Omega
C 55 Ω\Omega
D 110 Ω\Omega
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Current required by unit deflection is 60 μ\muA.

For, θ\theta = 9 current is I = 9 ×\times 60 μ\muA \Rightarrow I = 540 μ\muA = 540 ×\times 10-6 A Let G is resistance of galvanometer.

Then,

540×106=6(11000+G)540 \times {10^{ - 6}} = {6 \over {(11000 + G)}}

[11000 + G] 90 ×\times 10-6 = 1 99000 + 9G = 105 9G = 100000 - 99000 9G = 1000

G=10009ΩG = {{1000} \over 9}\Omega

Also, in half deflection method,

G=RSRS10009=11000S11000SG = {{RS} \over {R - S}} \Rightarrow {{1000} \over 9} = {{11000\,S} \over {11000 - S}}
19=11S11000S11000S=99S{1 \over 9} = {{11S} \over {11000 - S}} \Rightarrow 11000 - S = 99\,S

100 S = 11000 \Rightarrow S = 110

Q139
Two electric bulbs marked 25W25W - 220220 VV and 100W100W - 220V220V are connected in series to a 440440 VV supply. Which of the bulbs will fuse?
A Both
B 100100 WW
C 2525 WW
D Neither
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

The current upto which bulb of marked

25W25W

-

220V,220V,

will not fuse

I1=W1V1=25220Amp{I_1} = {{{W_1}} \over {{V_1}}} = {{25} \over {220}}Amp

Similarly,

I2=W2V2=100220Amp{I_2} = {{{W_2}} \over {{V_2}}} = {{100} \over {220}}\,Amp

The current flowing through the circuit

I=440Reff,Reff=R1+R2I = {{440} \over {{{\mathop{\rm R}\nolimits} _{eff}}}},\,\,{{\mathop{\rm R}\nolimits} _{eff}} = {R_1} + {R_2}
R1=V12P1=(220)225;{R_1} = {{V_1^2} \over {{P_1}}} = {{{{\left( {220} \right)}^2}} \over {25}};\,\,\,
R2=V22P=(220)2100{R_2} = {{V_2^2} \over P} = {{{{\left( {220} \right)}^2}} \over {100}}
I=440(220)225+(220)2100I = {{440} \over {{{{{\left( {220} \right)}^2}} \over {25}} + {{{{\left( {220} \right)}^2}} \over {100}}}}
=440(220)2[125+1100]= {{440} \over {{{\left( {220} \right)}^2}\left[ {{1 \over {25}} + {1 \over {100}}} \right]}}
I=40220AmpI = {{40} \over {220}}\,\,Amp

as

I1(=25220A)<I(=40220A)<I2(=100200A){I_1}\left( { = {{25} \over {220}}A} \right) < I\left( { = {{40} \over {220}}A} \right) < {I_2}\left( { = {{100} \over {200}}A} \right)

Thus the bulb marked

25W25W

-

220220

will fuse.

Q140
A uniform wire of length 1 and radius r has a resistance of 100 Ω\Omega . It is recast into a wire of radius r2.{r \over 2}. The resistance of new wire will be :
A 1600 Ω\Omega
B 400 Ω\Omega
C 200 Ω\Omega
D 100 Ω\Omega
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Resistance of a wire of length l and radius r is given by R =

ρlA{{\rho l} \over A}

=

ρlA×AA=ρVA2=ρVπ2r4{{\rho l} \over A} \times {A \over A} = {{\rho V} \over {{A^2}}} = {{\rho V} \over {{\pi ^2}{r^4}}}

\Rightarrow R \propto

1r4{1 \over {{r^4}}}

\therefore

R1R2=(r2r1)4{{{R_1}} \over {{R_2}}} = {\left( {{{{r_2}} \over {{r_1}}}} \right)^4}

Given, R1 = 100

Ω\Omega

, r1 = r, r2 =

r2{r \over 2}

, R2 = ? \therefore R2 = R1

(r1r2)4{\left( {{{{r_1}} \over {{r_2}}}} \right)^4}

= 16R1 = 1600
