The Science as a subject has come to mean the aystematic, consistent and excellent study of the physical world including, everything that can be seen, observed or detected in nature by the man and society and the knowledge that grows out of such study. Usually the science is characterized by the methodologies and approaches of the hypothesises, postulates, assumptions, theories and laws based upon experimental observations and mathematical conclusions. The science is broadly categorized into two groups— Natural science and Social science. Natural science deals with nature or physical world while social science deals with the subjects like sociology, economics, political science, human geography etc. Here in this book we are concerned about natural science only. Natural science is broadly divided into = 1, Physical science (studies concerned with non-living matter). 2. Life science or Biological science (studies concerned with living matter). On the macro-level physical science consists of Physics.and Chemistry while life science (Biology) consists of Botany and Zoology. The contents of the Astronomy and Computer (especially their elementary and fundamental concepts)are today also assumed (considered) to be the part of the conventional science. At present research and development activities in various branches of natural science like astrophysics, geophysics, biophysics, biochemistry, genetics, virology, evolution and ecology etc. are going on in earnest.

Here a unique physical phenomenon occurs. As the body starts its motion there is no acceleration in its horizontal direction, but the vertical direction there is a constant acceleration (acceleration due to =e gravity). Thus, in the projectile motion the body describes its horizontal motion with constant velocity and its vertical motion with constant acceleration. Terms and Expressions associated with projectile motion. Time of Ascent (!,): Itis the time taken by a body (projectile) to reach the maximum height (H).

That's why every projectile traces out a parabolic trajectory (path). sDiewton’s Laws of Motion : Firstly in 1687 Sir Isaac Newton, who was great mathematician of his timé, Bropounded the laws of notion in his book Principia. ‘There are three laws of motion. — First Law (Law of Inertia) : A bod: i w(L Inertia) : ly continues in its state of rest or uniform motion ina straight line in the same direction unless some external ee . applied to it. This is Newton's first law of motion. or agnetendency of Bodies sTee ees te remain in the original initial state Seance ues ia is called inertia, Inertia is of two. types (i) Inertia of to changetthe state of Mee a the external force which is accountable i va Buampler of inertia nt cevides the definition of force.

Thus, then lereas the upper part, duc to Parts of the body of » Were is a relative diel ween Pare posite direction’ PaS*ePger and consequent ape cement of the two Scafined by CamScanner | ~~ i i i -_visionias.net Physics n (ii) To remove ire fom soe we hit it with a stick, On being hit the jat_comes into motion but the dirt, due to its inerti i co gets detached from the coat and falls off. errors state (iii) Before taking a long jump an athlete runs for a while and then jakes a leap. By running for a while he gains inertia of motion which helps pim take a longer jump. (iv) While alighting from a slowly moving train one must run for a short while in the direction of the moving train and then let off the train. When you set your foot on the ground, the lower part of your body comes to rest instantaneously but the upper part of the body continues to move an the direction of the train. Due to relative displacement you are liable to fall forward and hurt yourself. If you ran for a short while all the parts ‘of the body will be in the same state and hence there will be no relative Gisplacement of the different parts of the body. Second Law (Law of Measurement of Force) : The rate of change of inear momentum (p = mv) of a body is proportional to the force applied and it takes place in the direction of the force. ie] F « dp _ ,d(mv) D on, Fake) — on A rene mass m is 6 nt) Where, k = proportionality constant = ka (as a ~ 4 ~ acceleration) If the proportionality constant k =1 then F = ma. =» Force = mass x acceleration. IfF =ma=m e =0, then no acceleration would be produced. If the acceleration of the body is zero (a = @ = 0) then the body will move either with a constant velocity or be in a position of rest. This implies that in the absence of an external force the body either moves with constant velocity or comes to rest. This also concludes that in the absence of an external force the inertia of a body is conserved. ‘Third Law (Law of Action and Reaction): To every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Action and reaction act on different bodies. Stace their les of action are different, the resultant force is not zero, This is Newton's Third law of motion. Examples : (i) A rocket whose mass decreases continuously due to ejected mass in the form of gases during its forward motion. Gi) During firing of a bullet the gun recoils back with a great force. (iii) To drive water boat forward the bamboo stick is pressed into the land of water. (iv) During pulling water from the wel the man falls behind the well. Units of Force : The S.1. Unit of force is Newton. Forces are defined by Newton’s first law of motion and measured by ‘Newton’s second law of motion. 11 sometimes the rope breaks and Scanned by CamScanner visionias-nect — rare if m=1kg anda =1 By Newton's second law F = ma. Here if m = 1 kg mae secontl, then F = 1 N. Thus 1 Newton is the force required to Produce ¥ acceleration of 1 ms” ina bay of mo a ke O ayne CGS unit of force is Dyne and 1N = / aa uunit of force is kg-wt which is also used for Gravitation, kg-wt is the force required resulting from the acceleration of Bravity on the body of 1 kg mass. Thus by Newton's second law, Force due to Bravity — | mass x acceleration due to gravity. The force of gravity acting ona body is the weight of the pelo Thus weight (W) = mg. . } Here the value of g (acceleration due to gravity) = 9.8 ms-2 Thus, 1 kg.weight = 1 kg * 9.8 ms?=9.8 kg.ms?=9.8 NN. Linear Momentum and Impulse: The product of the mass of a movin, object or body with its velocity (constant) is called Linear M. itis a vector quantity. . Thus momentum (p) = mass x velocity = ne. The S.1. unit of the linear momentum is kg.ms* Ifany external force is operative on an object ora body for, a very short span of time, then the product of this external force and the time is called Impulse and the force is called Impulsive Force. Thus Impulse (J) = Force x time interval lomentum and a > IHF Atm Fate ap => J =Ap=change in linear momentum. Thus impulseis also defined as change in the Jinear momentum of the body for a short Span of time. The s. Unit of the impulse is that of linear momentum and given by kg.mst > Examples of the linear momentum and the impulse (i) Cricket players while taking a catch move their hands in the direction of the motion of the ball t avait maximum injuries and for minimum hurt. Gi) In heavy and light vehicles springs and shock observers are installed to avoid exertion and for comfertal (ii) To hit nail in depth, a heavy hammer used, Law of conservation of linear momentum, The linear momentum fonservationis the outcome ot and third Jaw ef motion. Unde: the mutual more bodies, free from external forces, thi € Newton's second action and reaction of two or '¢ algebraic sum of the linear jnomenta of the bodies in any assigned direction remains conserved. Thus, in general, if no external force is cperative ona system of particles or bodies under the mutual action and. feaclion of the particles, the Momentum of the system in any direction remains conserved. This is the aw Of conservation Of linear momentum, ple (i) When a shot is fired, the cannon recoils. ‘This is an example of the law of conservation of momentum, Here the system (Shot + Cannon) is at rest with respect to reference frame fixed to the earth When a shot is Scanned by CamScanner fired with a velocity say v, it gains a certain velocity, say V and by the Matati., conservation law the cannon must also. same velocity i Mey got 1 opposite direction so that the algebraic sums of the rornenta eecenes mare, 5 Bray the If mand M be tin: masses of shot and cannon, then by conservation law of bog?’ = linear momentum: Y is m+MV=0 of Va— M 2 —we sign indicates that V must be n it CM hat V must be necessarily opposite to v. This velocity of the cannon is called the velocity of recoil. ¥ —_ Gi) In the process of collisions, elastic or inelastic the total linear HnOving momentum before collision js equal to the total linear momentum after nang collision. Thus, total linear momentum of the system of colliding particles is conserved. If m, and m, the two masses of colliding particles, u, and u, are the velocities of the respective particles before collision and v, and v, are the velocities of the particles after collision.

A typical example of variable mass system is that of a rocket motion from which hot gases keep on escaping, thereby continuously decreasing 7 its mass. A rocket may use either a liquid or a solid fuel. In the former case the fuel (like liquid H, or liquid paraffin) and a suitable oxidizer (like O,, H,O, or HNO,), stored up in separate chamber are injected into a combustion chamber where the fuel is burnt. In the latter case, the fuel itself carries its own oxidizer and hence a separate chamber is not needed. In both cases large quantity of the heat of combustion is produced, which largely raises the internal pressure and temperature of the chamber and burnt up gases (like CO, steam etc) are pumped out from an orifice at the back or the tail end of the rocket in the form of a high velocity stream called the jet. Consequently the rocket is propelled forward (opposite to the direction of the jet). Here the momentum lost by the jet of the fuel gases must be equal to the momentum gained by the rocket.

Since the value of Gravitational 3) measured in Torsion balance by Cavendish was very smallonly Nov.kg, gravitational force for smaller bodies is negligible and can not be realized Weak Force : The concept of weak force came into existence firstly in Yukawa’s meson theory when explanation of f|—decay was propounded. In the atomic nucleus, electron emission (f — particle decay) takes place spontaneously during the conversion of neutron into a proton by ejecting ammeson. This x meson decays almost instantly into an electron (e-) and an anti neutrino (¥). Thus: n (neutron) + p (proton) + x! (n-meson) -* p (proton) + © (electron) decay + ¥ (anti neutrino) Here neutron is converted into proton by the exchange of x-meson and consequently interaction between electron (f-decay) and antineutrino is due to weak interaction. (iii) Electromagnetic Force : Electromagnetic force operates on all charged particles and provides atomic and molecular binding forces. Thus electromagnetic interactions are charge-dependent (attractive as well as repulsive). The electric and magnetic forces compose the electromagnetic force which acts by means of photon or quanta. If both el. etic forces exist, then it is called Lorentz’s force given by |F = qE + quB sint Where, Charge of the particle Ic = Electric field strength gas denege! Velocity of the charged particle B = Magnetic field intensity 0 = Angle between velocity and magnetic field (iv) Nuclear Force (Strong Force): Among all the forces found in nature, nuclear force is the Strongest force which basically exists within atomic fiaeleus between proton-proton, proton-neutron, and neutron-neutron within the range up to 10-™ meter. Experimental evidences OF the nuclear Phyeies observe that nuclear forces are primarily attractive, non-electrical, non-gravitational (not central forces), extremely strong but spin dependent and the magnitude of the force is same for proton-proton, proton-neutron and neutron-neutron. Explanation of the nuclear forces was given in detail by Yukawa’s Menson’s theory. Some scientists also assume that the nuclear forces originate through the mutual interaction of two quarks.

But by Newton's second law of motion, this acceleration is produced by a corresponding force (every accelerated body has a force) called Centripetal Force directed inwardly towards the radius ie. in the direction of acceleration.

The centripetal acceleration always acts ra velocity (linear) acts tangentially outwards. Thus the centripetal — acceleration and linear velocity of the bodydescribing a circular motion are perpendicular to each other throughout the motion.

This happens because as the car turns, a centripetal force around the radius of curvature of the path is generated which is counter- batanced by the force of friction of the wheels of the car. But this centripetal force is not balanced by the man, so a shock is felt by the man which comes through the virtue of inertia. This is the required centrifugal force which acts outwardly. Gi) The person sitting in a merry-go-round realises an outer push tangentially due to the appearance of a centrifugal force. In the study of any physical phenomenon, the position of a system or body is made to be fixed and the distances of other bodies are measured called reference frames. It is of two types (i) Inertial (Non-accelerating) and (ii) Non-inertial (accelerating). Inertial frames are those in which inertia of any body remains conserved. Thus this frame is either in rest or in a uniform motion ina straight line i.e. no force, no acceleration concept exists. But if the force or the acceleration exists in a particular frame it is called non-inertial. Newton's laws of motion are applicable only in inertial frame of reference. Application Centrifuge : A device by means of which light particles and heavy particles are separated to each other. () Cream Separator : In a cream separator, a vessel containing milk is rotated fast. Being lighter the cream collects in a cylindrical layer around the axis, whence it is drawn off and the skimmed milk is drained through an outlet fitted on the wall of the vessel. The particles, whose density is less than that of the liquid, are driven towards the axis of rotation and those whose density is greater than that of the liquid are driven away from the axis. Cream is lighter than milk, so it is separated from milk and collected at the axis. (i) The Centrifugal Drier : In laundries wet clothes are dried by packing them in a cylindrical vessel with perforated walls which rotated with a very high speed. Water particles stick to the cloths with a certain force which is called adhesive force. The water particles are not sufficient to keep them moving uniformly in a circle. Torque or Moment of a force : The turning effect of a force about a point or a line is called the moment of force about that point or line which is called the axis of rotation. The turning effect of a force is dependent on the magnitude of the force and the perpendicular F distance of its line of action from the axis of rotation. heen thee Scanned by CamScanner General Selence the body either in clog my of the moment of force is fag oF ‘or tends to turn the body.

Solid Spherical body Centre of the sphere Equilibrium of Bodies : When a body under the action of several forces neither moves in a straight line nor rotates around a point then it is said to be in equilibrium. Conditions for equilibrium ; (i) The vector sum of all forces acting on a body along any assigned direction for translational equilibrium must be zero. Thus no linear motion occurs. (ii) The algebraic sum of moments (torques) of all the forces acting on a body about any assigned point or line for rotational equilibrium must vanish (being zero). Thus no angular acceleration must exist. If three forces acting on a particle as shown in the figure are capable of being represented in magnitude and direction by the three sides of a triangle taken in order, they (force) produce an equilibrium. ‘Types of Equilibrium : There are three types of equilibrium (i) Stable equilibrium (ii) Unstable equilibrium (iii) Neutral equilibrium. (i) Stable equilibrium : When a body is in equilibrium in such a way that a slight displacement from this position produces a restoring force tending to return the body to the previous equilibrium, then body is said to be in stable equilibrium. In stable equilibrium the body possesses minimum potential energy. (ii) Unstable equilibrium : When a body is in an equilibrium in such a way that any displacement from this position produces a force tending to push the body farther from the equilibrium position, then it is said to be in unstable equilibrium. In this equilibrium position the body possesses maximum energy.

Gravitation Gravitation is the weakest interaction or force among all the four types of interactions existing in our Universe. Each and every body interacts (attracts) each other by virtue of its mass. This is called Gravitation. Newton's Law of Gravitation In our universe the force of interaction acting among any two bodies is directly proportional to the masses of the bodies and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the bodies. If m,, m, be the masses of two bodies at r distance then according, to “he Newton's law of gravitation Fam,m, Fat r - Pagal r where G is called Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10°" Nm?kg? Gravity : As in Newton’s law of gravitation the forces of interaction exist among any two bodies, but if in these two bodies one body is the Earth, then this gravitation is called gravity and by this force of gravity the Earth attracts everybody towards its centre. If a body is projected upwards freely, then due to the force of gravity it falls back. Acceleration due to gravity (g) : If a body is dropped freely and it executes a free falling motion, then as the body comes near the Earth’s surface then its velocity increases and the acceleration produced is called acceleration due to gravity. If m be the mass of any body describing a free falling motion then due to the presence of force of gravity the weight of the bo . where g = 9.8 ms or 32 ft = acceleration due to gravity (Near the earth’s surface) In SI unit ‘g’ is expressed in ms? or N. kg.

But the heavenly bodies revolving around the planets are called satellites. The Earth is the planet of the sun and the moon is a satellite (natural) of the Earth. The planets and satellites draw their light and energy from the sun becatise the have no energy of their own, There are so many artificial satellites like”. Geostationary satellites, Sputnik-1, Aryabhatta, Rohini and Apple whi have been launched in various orbits of the earth. Various combeaniene satellites are orbiting around the Earth, nication a sci it. the frst artificial satellite launched in 1957 by Russian Pe or Orbital Velocity : tevlves around another bd ey ay atelit) the velocity of the revolution, etek, the Earth) then orbital velocity, \¢ first body is called Let m be the mass . s the earth of the mace ae orbiting around is velocity) and let R, be the fadios cee %0 (orbital 5 ee ‘e tadius of the earth, i Centripetal 4 Scanned by CamScanner Physics 5 Le er im Tmussey ayy =e eG (: Now, if =0, Then v, will become the orbital velocity of the earth. Tho (een Bal eg VR Obviously from the expression of the orbital velocity of the satellite, the value of vg doesn’t depend upon the mass (m) of the satellite rather it depends on the height (h) of the satellite, and the larger the value of h the lesser would be the value of vg, But satellites having various masses with the same orbital radius have the same orbital velocity. The value of orbital velocity of the earth and a geostationary satellite is, 7.99 km/sec. (approx. 8 km/sec.) Period of revolution of a satellite : The time required in which the satellite completes one rotation is called the period of revolution (T). Thus the period of revolution (T) = Orbital velocity 3 2e(R +h) 2n(R,+h) Rok — 2n (K+)? % Rvs Rg 3 2n(R, +h)? g - Ra (* -84/xsi) Obviously, the period of revolution (1) of the satellite is independent of the mass of the satellite. Rather it depends on the height of the satellite from. the surface, and the more the height (h) the larger the period of revolution (1). The period of the revolution of the earth or a geostationary satellite is 84 minutes. Geostationary Satellite : A geostationary satellite is a communication satellite which revolves from west to east and whose period of revolution is 24 hrs equal to that of axial rotation of the earth (earth’s spin). Such satellites are stationary and are located at 36,000 km height from the earth’s surface. Geostationary satellites (Communication Satellites) transmit signals across larger distances by receiving these signals from one point on earth’s surface and reflecting them down to the another point. In order to provide a stationary target for the transmitted signals, these satellites must remain stationary at a point above the earth. Utilities :(i) The electromagnetic radio-waves are reflected and transmitted and various programmes on the television are displayed. Itis utilised in radio transmission and telecommunication. The Meteorological Department uses it in weather broadcasting, and in earlier predictions of the floods and droughts.

(First law (law of elliptical orbits) : Each planet moves in an elliptical orbit around the sun, the sun being at one of the foci of the ellipse. Gi) Second law (laws of areas): The radius vector of any planet relative to the sun sweeps out equal areas in equal times, that is the real velocity of the radius vector of the planet is constant. Gil) Third law (harmonic laws): The square of the period of revolution of any planet around the sun is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of the elliptical orbit. i where; a= semi-major axis Obviously, those planets which are far away from the sun have a large period of revolution. The planet Mercury which is nearest to the sun has the period of revolution of 88 days while Neptune, which is far away from the sun, has the period of revolution of 165 years. 5. Properties of Matter Matter : Matter is the substance that occupies space and has mass and it is perceptible to the senses. Matter is one of the two basic components of the physical science in which the another component is being energy. The uishing properties of matter are gravitation and inertia. Any entity exhibiting these properties at rest is matter. All material bodies have mass, which is a measure of inertia and every material body near the earth's gravitational field interacts by the virtue of its mass. Thus two types of masses—inertial mass and gravitational mass remain in existence by their proportion of equality. The broad classification of the matter is given as below— e. The Matter Physical Classification Chemical Classification Pure substance Mixt Solid Liquid Gas oe Homogeneous Heterogeneous Element Compound Metallic Non-metallic Organic Inorganic The physical classification separates matter into three categories— Solid, liquid and gas-known as three states (phases) of matter. But today Plasma, which appears in gaseous or ionized state is actually comes into existence during a thermonuclear process and which is composed of charged particles, is assumed to be the fourth state of matter, Scanned by CamScanner au Important characteristics of the Matter Solids - Elasticity Liquids —_- Pressure, Floatation, Surface Tension, Capillarity, Viscosity Gases ~ Atmospheric Pressure (A) ELASTICITY If a rigid body is in equilibrium under the inter- molecular attraction, whose magnitude depends upon the Spacing bet molecules, and an external force is applied, then a new j, developed which causes a change in the relative spa molecules. Hence the body changes its shape or size or both and it is said to be deformed. When the external force is removed the new internal force brings the body to its normal or original state. The Property of the body, by virtue of which it recovers its original shape and size when the external force (deforming force) is removed, is called the elasticity of the body, A perfectly elastic body is one that recovers its original size and shape completely when the external force is removed. Thus a Perfectly plastic body is one that fully maintains its altered size and shape when the external force is removed. Actual bodies behave between these two limits, Nev y recovers completely its original size and shape after undergoing very large deformations. A body is said to be rigid if the relative position of its constituent Particles doesn’t change in equilibrium but on applying an external force a slight relative displacement takes place. In practice no body a perfectly rigid. Elastic Limit : The maximum limit of the external force (deforming force) by applying on a rigid body, elastic characteristics are maintained, is called elastic limit. Different elastic limits are to be found for different bodies. ni Strain : When a body suffers a change in its size or shape under the action of external forces, it is said to be deformed and the corresponding fractional change is called strain. The strain is a ratio and it has no unit, no dimension. There are three types of strain— longitudinal (linear) strain, volume strain and shearing (shape) strain, Stress : When external deforming forces act on a body internal forces opposing the former are developed at each section of the body. The magnitude of the internal forces per unit area of the section is called stress. In the equilibrium state of a deformed body, the internal forces are equal and opposite to the external forces. Thus, stress is measured by the external Bree unit area of their application. The dimension of the etrees i and its units are N/m? (§ 1) and dyne/cm?

If on the free surface of the liquid atmospheric pressure be operative then the total pressure exerted will be = Atmospheric Pressure (P) + pgh Some observations and conclusions regarding liquid pressure (i) At any point inside the liquid the pressure exerted by the liquid is directly proportional to its depth from the free surface. ‘Thus, as shown in the diagram the pressure will be ina decreasing order for the points 4, b and c. Thus, p,> p,> Pz Where, p, p, and p, are the respective pressures at the points a, b and c. ‘At every point and in every direction the pressure exerted inside the liquid at rest is same. If a number of holes are made after filling the container with liquid, then the liquid will be released from every hole with equal pressure.

The pressure. E larger on the parts immersed more deeply. So the sts eat on all sides in upward direction called buoyancy or buoyant force. The upthrust or the buoyant force acts on the centre of gravity (c.g.) of the displaced liquid by the body which is called centre of buoyancy. Archimedes’s Principle : Archimedes’s principle states that when a body is partially or fully immersed into a fluid at rest, the fluid exerts an upward force of buoyancy which is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. Here the apparent weight of the body is equal to the displaced fluid. Fluids are those substances which can flow, the liquids and the gases both are fluids.

Thus, the wt. of the displaced liquid = Upthrust or force of buoyancy = Apparent wt. of the object Examples of Archimedes's principle and law of floatation (i) The ships of iron and the boats of wood float in water but the nails of iron sink.

But the wt. of the water displaced by the nails is less than the wt. of the nails that is why nails sink. (ii) Life saving belts and submarines operate on these principles.

Surface tension is a vector quantity and its st” unit is N/m ie. Nm — zero at the critical temperature. Surface Energy : Every strained body possesses potential energy. Thus surface of a liquid behaves also like a strained system and hence the surface of the liquid also has a potential energy which is equal to the work done in creating the surface. This energy per unit area of the surface is called surface energy. The surface energy of a liquid is numerically equal to the surface tension. Thus, surface energy and surface tension both can be expressed in Joule /meter? The free surface of the liquid tries to acquire the minimum area due to surface tension and that’s why rain drops, liquid drops, drops of mercury etc. are spherical. Angle of contact : When a solid body in the form of a tube or a plate is immersed in a liquid, the surface of the liquid near the solid in general is curved (concave or convex). The angle between the tangents of the liquid surface and the solid surface at the point of contact, inside the liquid is called the angle of contact for that pair of solid and liquid. Pressure Inside a Soap bubble and inside a liquid drop: The pressure inside a soap bubble or a liquid drop must be in excess of the pressure outside the bubble or drop because without such pressure difference, a bubble or a drop cannot remain in a stable equilibrium. Due to surface face tension the bubble or drop has a tendency to contract and disappear stic altogether. To balance the tendency to contract, there must be an excess of pressure inside the bubble or drop. um ‘ss.

If the angle of contact is acute (less then 90°) then liquid rises and if the angle of contact is obtuse (more than 90°) then the liquid depresses. It is called capillary action or capillarity. Generally the liquid which wets glass rises upwards and the liquid which doesn’t wet glass depresses downwards. | When a capillary tube is dipped into water it rises, while in the case of mercury it depresses.

The directions of these forces are such that the relative motion petween the layers are opposed. This property of the fluid to oppose feiative motion between its layers is called viscosity. The forces between the layers opposing the relative motion between them are called the forces of viscosity: Thus, viscosity may be thought to be an internal friction of the fluid in motion. Let us suppose a liquid is flowing as shown in the figure (i) and AB is the ground level at which the lowermost layer is at rest. Fig. (i) Fig. (ii) : Velocity distribution curve As we move from the lowermost layer to upward the flow velocities of the liquid layers go on increasing and the uppermost layer has maximum velocity. Thus every lower layer has lesser velocity than consecutive upper layers and others. In fact every upper layer tries to drag forward every consecutive (adjacent) lower layer, but a lower layer tries to pull consecutive {adjacent) upper layer backwards. Ifa liquid flows in a cylindrical pipe or tube as shown in figure (ii) a velocity distribution curve is obtained which is parabolic and the velocity of the mid. Layer is the maximum and decreases for other adjacent layers. Thus, viscosity is the internal characteristics of liquids and gases which are produced by the cohesive forces of the molecules. When the liquid flows a relative motion among its various layers start due to which the distance among the molecules increases and it is opposed by the cohesive forces and thus viscosity is produced. But in gases viscosity is generated due to molecules transfer from one place to another. That is why, in the gases viscosity is less than that of the liquids. In liquids viscosity is also measured by their concentration. The liquids which are more dense (concentrated) have more viscosity. Examples ~ Glycerine and Honey have More viscosity than water.

Where, 1 = Coeff. of viscosity = Density of the li Radius of the tube in which liquid is flowing. ~ Reynold’s number in which liquid is flowing. This is called Reynolds formula. Here k is called Reynolds number, its value is very high and usually it is represented on a logarithmic scale. For a narrow tube the value of k is 1000. Obviously for the flow of liquids Baas of higher viscosity and lower density through narrow tubes tends to be © steady or orderly (streamlined) whereas that of liquids of lower viscosity — and higher density through broader tubes tends to be turbulent. on, : __ Principle of Continuity : If an incompressible (const. density), non- le viscous, fluid flows. steadily through a tube of non-uniform cross-section, then the product of the area of cross-section and the velocity of flow is same at every point in the tube. ‘Thus, in a particular tube if A_ be the area of its cross- section and v be the velocity of flow of the liquid at a place (point), then according to the s continuity principle; Av = Constant Thereby, for two different places (points) in a tube as shown in the figure, ¥ ag sey A, 2, = Ay v% Usually the principle of continuity is a fundamental law of fluid-flow and it is a special case of the general physical law of conservation of matter. Also we can conclude that in a steady compressible flow the velocity of flow varies inversely with the cross-sectional area, being larger in narrower parts of the tube and vice-versa. Bernoulli’s Theorem : This states that for all points along a streamline in an incompressible and non-viscous fluid flowing steadily, the sum of pressure energy, potential energy and kinetic energy per unit volume is constant. Thus, if p be the pressure energy per unit volume, p be the density of the fluid, h be the height from the ground level, then by Bernoulli's theore: pt i pv? + pgh = constant.

It is held on the earth by the action of gravity. Atmosphere is a mechanical mixture of the gases namely nitrogen and oxygen and some other inert gases. The pressure of these gaseous mixture of atmosphere is called atmospheric pressure.s gravity isthe only force acting on the atmosphere, the pressure on the atmosphere is obviously the weight of the vertical column of air of unit cross-section and height equal to that of atmosphere. Firstly the atmospheric pressure was evaluated and measured by Von Guericke. Normally, the atmospheric pressure is the pressure required which is exerted by the column of 76 cm of Hg at 0"C and at 45" latitude near the sea. Thus we can also say that atmospheric pressure is the pressure equivalent to the wt. of the column of 76 cm of Hg for unit cross-sectional area. Unit of Atmospheric Pressure Column of 1m ofHg = 1.33 x 108 Pascal 1 Pascal =1Newton/meter* ~TBar = 10° Newton/meter* 1Millibar = 10? Pascal 1ttor =1 milli Hg Pressure 133.8 Pascal Far “3 More appropriately, Thus, the atmosphere exerts on us a pressure of 1600 kg, but we don't realise pressure. The osmotic pressure of the blood and mineral water of our body exerts an equivalent pressure that's why we don't feel external pressure. At the earth’s surface (near sea level) on reaching a distance of 110 m upwards, atm. pressure decreases by 1 cm column of Hg. In hilly area it is difficult to prepare food because of a fall in pressure on the hill and the boiling point of water correspondingly rises up. Consequently the latent heat of vaporisation of water decreases too and, that’s why the difficulties occur. The phenomenon of ink overflowing from the pen of a man sitting in aircraft at higher altitudes, the phenomenon of bleeding through the nose etc. are common interesting incidents. ‘Barometer: The barometer is a device by which the atmospheric pressure is measured. Fortin fabricated and designed the barometer on the basis of Torricelli’s theorem. It measures the atmospheric pressure accurately and by the help of Fortin barometer weather related activities are predicted. When the indicator of a barometer suddenly falls, it is the indicative prediction of the appearance of a cyclonic storm, but if its indicator falls slowly then the possibility is of the coming of rain and if the indicator inclines upward slowly then there is a possibility of the appearance of a clear day. Due to large size and some other drawbacks, Fortin barometer was replaced by Aneroid barometer which is compact and convenient and in it no liquid is used. The frequent use of Aneroid barometer is customary to measure the altitude of various places. The device Altimeter operates on the basic principle of Aneroid barometer by which altitudes are measured. The Standard Atmospheric pressure is the pressure require: of Hg column or 760 mm of Hg column, which is équivalent to 1 atm.

Sound (Acoustics) 1. Wave Motion Wave motion : A wave motion is a process of transmission of disturbances created somewhere in an elastic medium in all directions around it and along with the disturbances energy transmits. Although the particles of the medium only vibrate about their mean position and do not leave their original respective positions. Thus, three conditions are required for the formation of a wave— (@)_A vibrating body called the source is necessary to create the disturbance. An clastic medium called the propagating medium through which the wave transmits. Giii) Particles of the medium which take part in the process of onward transmission of the disturbance by executing successive similar vibrations in the source about their respective mean position. Such wave (disturbance) progression along with energy transmission is called a wave-motion. Broadly a wave is categorized into two types— (i) Mechanical waves (Elastic waves) (ii) Non-mechanical waves (Electromagnetic waves). (i) Mechanical waves (Elastic waves) : Waves which propagate in materialistic elastic medium like solid, liquid or gas are called mechanical waves. There are two essential features— elasticity and inertia for the existence of the mechanical waves. Types of Mechanical waves : (a) Transverse mechanical wave + (b) Longitudinal mechanical waves.

Speed of Sound For the propagation of sound wave (mechanical longitudinal wave) 4 materialistic medium is needed. That's why sound doesn't Propagat= in vacuum. The speed of sound is different in different media, Newer firstly theoretically observed and propounded that the speed of sound is dependent on elasticity (E) of medium and its density (d) as piven below, 1.

Thus, in moist ait value of the speed of sound is more than in This is the reason why in rainy season the siren of the train is heard sharply up toa far distance than in summer season. Effect of the speed of the medium : If the medium is speeded up then the speed of sound increases in the same direction and decreases in the opposite direction. 4. Characteristics of musical sound Musical notes differ from each other in the respect of at least one of the three properties, namely- Intensity, Pitch and Quality. These three are called characteristics of a musical sound. A musical sound is bound to differ from another musical sound in at least one of these three properties and hence they provide a means to distinguish one musical note from another. Intensity and Loudness : The intensity of a musical sound is defined as the rate of flow of energy per uni of a plane perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. The SI unit of intensity is Joule/sec-meter? or watt/meter?, The intensity of a simple harmonic wave is given by I= 2ev'aXpy. where; a = amplitude of the wave p = density of the medium v= frequency of the wave v= wave speed Obviously, the intensity of the musical sound is proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave, the density of the medium, the square of the frequency of the wave, and wave speed. Apart from these the intensity of the musical sound varies inversely as the square distance of the source and varies directly to the elasticity of the medium. This intensity also depends on the size of the source and a larger source has larger intensity and vice-versa, In fact intensity is a special feature (characteristic) of the musical sound by which feeble (weak) and loud (sharp) sounds can be identified. Though the absolute unit of intensity is watt/m? but it has no significance and another arbitrary unit is bel which is expressed on the logarithmic scale and it is used frequently to measure the relative intensity. This unit bel was @ nobel honour to the inventor of the telephone Graham Bel.

But when the reflection. , takes place on the open end of a pipe (organ pipe), then the nature of tae wave changes ic. compression changes into rarefaction and vice-versa, [cause Due to a longer wavelength the sound wave reflects at large surface than Baty light wave.

In the day time, the Scanned by CamScanner www -wisionias-net Physics 61 temperature of air is maximum near the ground surface and it diminishes upwards. Thus, the speed of sound is the largest near the surface of the earth (v = vT)and decreases upwards. Soa ray of sound diverging upwards from a source on (or near) the earth's surface is refracted continuously towards the normal and hence less sound reaches the observer. At dusk the situation is just the opposite. Now, a ray diverging upwards from a source ‘on (or near) the surface of the earth is refracted continuously away from the normal. Novy, it is totally reflected when it begins to travel downwards with a continuous refraction to reach the observer towards vertically.

Such vibrations of the body are called its free vibrations, provided it is free from all type of resisting force, external or internal. Example - the prong of a tuning fork, thestretched string of a sonometer etc. are vibrations capable bodies. When these bodies are disturbed from their position of rest they vibrate and these vibrations are said to be free vibrations, and these are not resisted by frictional forces such as air resistance, viscosity or any other frictional forces ete. Though vibrations of such bodies are free from the external forces namely air resistance, they are not free from internal frictional forces namely viscous force, In the course of vibrations, the different layers of the prong, move relatively to one another and due to this relative motion between the layers a force comes into play which tries to diminish the relative motion. This force is called viscous force or internal frictional force. In practice vibrations of a body are resisted by some kind of frictional force and hence resisted vibrations are the natural vibrations. The frequency of free vibrations of a body is called its natural frequency. (iv) Forced vibrations : Resonance : If a body can vibrate freely then due to resisting forces the natural frequency of the body starts to decay and thus an external periodic force is needed. A tussle starts between the frequency of the external force and the natural frequency of the body and ultimately the frequency of the external periodic force predominates and Scanned by CamBeanin the hady vibrates which is called forced vibration. wisionias.nmet wre aaa of the exten tS ot body of tal a orsnance natural Frequency Thus at onal periodic force. 1 the nea was destroyed dite to Se ip the Outer anes ir oor that of natural frequen f resonance occurred. @ ique situati But a unigu on ai Jodie force becomes equal t0 th iret hi called resonane. ebay ea to the fone of he ” prample nn 1959 Takoma Bad ce.

When the effect of one by the other, the two Waves are said to interfere destructively (destructive interference) and when their effects are reinforced they are said to interfere Sustructively (constructive interference), Ag usual Interference is a basic characteristic of the wave. : In sound when ‘undercertain. suitabl destructively producing phenomenon of sustained. when they meet under certain Wave is constantly neutralised Although total energy energy m transferred from 'S conserved in the the regions of silen, interference, here sound ce to the regions of anti- han 16 He) ne amplitude but slightly avel along the same ling formed by their supe nn an Y their super ition, ly which Sta Bives rise to a peak Scanned by CamScanner the extern, vol the fra requency og d due to .

This phenomenon of waxing, and waning in the loudness of the resultant wave is known as beats. Thus, the beats are formed due to the superposition of waves. Interferences and beats both occur due to the superposition of waves and these are concerned with the variation of the intensity of the wave. Interference is the phenomenon of sustained destruction or reinforcement of two identical waves and there is a spatial distribution of silence (destructive interference) and anti-silence (constructive interference) but in beats silence and anti-silence occur periodically at the same place, so it is also called interference in time. In producing interference the two interfering waves must be essentially coherent (having constant phase) but, in producing beats any two sources can be taken. (c) Stationary waves (standing waves) When two identical progressive waves (waves having the same amplitude and frequency) travelling in the opposite directions meet along, the same line with the same > velocity, then the result of the superposition of such waves in the formation of a system of waves which alternately appear and disappear in the region where the two waves | > meet without advancing in | — N= Node Als Note: either direction is called stationary (standing) waves. In the formation of a stationary wave, the space confined has two types of points. The first is Node where no displacement takes place and another is Anti-node where maximum displacement occurs. The distance between two consecutive Nodes or Anti-nodes is *; where 4 is the wavelength of the waves undergoing for superposition. (vi) Diffraction of sound : When sound waves originate by a vibrating source they spread in the medium and if the medium is homogeneous and isotropic (have uniform density), then these waves have spherical wave- fronts from the point source. Far from the source the wavefronts are nearly planes and the shape of the wavefront is changed when the wave meets an obstacle or an opening in its path. This leads to bending of the wave around the edges. Such bending of waves from an obstacle or an opening, is called diffraction. Diffraction is a characteristic property of the wave and all kinds of waves undergo diffraction. The effect of diffraction is appreciable when the dimensions of the obstacles are comparable or smaller than the wavelength of the wave. If the obstacle is large compared to the wavelength, the diffraction effect is almost negligible. Example : The wavelength of the sound wave is approx. 1 meter and of the same order as the doors and windows of our houses. That's why sound wave is diffracted broadly and one person easily hears the voice of the another.

Thereby it can be concluded that the possible tones of an open pipe have frequencies in the ratio of natural numbers. The note emitted by the air column in an open pipe will have the full series of overtones and hence it is very rich in harmonics. That's why the quality of a note emitted by an open pipe is always better and sweeter than that of a closed pipe. 6. Doppler's effect in sound When there is a relative motion between an observer and a source, then the pitch of the note emitted by the source appears to be changed to the observer. This apparent change in pitch due to a relative motion between the observer and the source and also sometimes due to motion of the medium is called Doppler's effect in sound (acoustical Doppler's effect), Actually Doppler firstly observed this effect in light waves. Thus, the optical Doppler's effect in fact firstly propounded the spectral lines of certain stars which were found to be shifted towards the red or violet end of the spectrum from their normal position by a very small distance. For the red and violet end stars recede from the earth and approach to the earth respectively. Doppler's effect is also a basic characteristic of the wave and it is to be found in all types of wave.

A jet plane, a ballistic missile moves through the air at a velocity greater than the velocity of sound. In such cases the wavefront takes the shape of a cone with moving object at its apex. The Jet Plane or the supersonic plane sends a cracking sound called sonic boom Which can crack glass dishes, window panes and even damage buildings, The wave originated due to sonic boom is called shock wave. The spherical wavefront intersect over the surface of the cone with the apex at the source, Because of constructive interference of a large number of waves arrivin, at the same instant on the surface of th s large amplitude are sent with waves. Here, we can write sin 9 = 2 = velocity of sound % = velocity of source, where, » Maerodynamics, thig ratio Scanned by CamScanner Physics a 1. Heat & Temperature The degree of hotness or coldness of a body is called its temperature and thus temperature is an indicator of the thermal stage of the body. Due to different temperatures of two bodies thermal energy transfers from the body having higher temperature to the body of lower temperature and at 4 particular temperature the process of energy transfer stops and now both bodies are said to be in thermal equilibrium. This thermal energy due to which the existence of the temperature in the body appears is called heat. In other words, heat is a type of energy by which mechanical work can be done. This was firstly detected by Rumford. Later, Davy confirmed this fact after rubbing two pieces of ice on melting. As no source of heat is available in the melting of the two pieces thus frictional forces came into existence due to the rubbing, which produce heatenergy and consequently the twoice pieces melt. Later by Joule’s experiment it was observed that heat is a form of energy by which various works can be performed, Joule also asserted that heat and mechanical work are inter-transferable to each other and the ratio of mechanical work and heat energy by which work is done is a fixed ratio called mechanical equivalent of heat and basically it is a conversion unit. If a mechanical work W is produced by an amount of heat H then J= W/Hor W = JH, where; J = mechanical equivalent of heat. = 4186 Joule/kilo cal. = 4.186 Joule /cal. = 4.186 « 107 erg/cal. Thisimplies that if work of 4.186 Joule isdone then 1 kilocal, heat would be produced. Effect of heat : (a) Physical changes : By the application of heat or thermal energy the physical structure of a body like its shape-size, volume, temperature and its state changes (i) Change in Temperature: Ordinarily temperature of a body increases with increase in heat or on supplying thermal energy to (ii) Change in Volume : Ordinarily with increase in heat or thermal energy the volume of the body increases. Gii) Change of state : Usually there are three states of matter— solid, liquid and gas and these states exist due to the difference of temperature thereby due to heat. Thus, change of state takes place due to heat. (iv) Otherschanges:Onheatingabody itsshape, size, clectricalresistance, the ability to dissolve solute in the solvent etc. change drastically. (b) Chemical changes ; On heating a substance some changes occur Permanently. One can observe free oxygen released on heating potassium chlorate with mangnese dioxide.

Thermal expansi mn Of solids, liquids and gases Ordinarily the volume me of a substance increases with the supply of heat (thermal energy) resulting from the increase of intermolecular distances in the substance, But there are some exceptions also for instance. in water volume contracts on increasing its temperature from 0°C to 4°C. Similarly in Silver lodide (AgI) volume contracts on increasing Thetemiperature it has temperature between 80°C to 140°C, On supplying heat expansion occurs in all solids, liquids and gases, but gases expand more than liquids and liquids expand more than solids. Expansion of solids : Usually if any solid body is heated, it expands in length, breadth and thickness and if the expansion, in length is only substantial then it is called linear expansion but if both length and breadth expand substantially it is called superficial expansion and ultimately if the Jength, breadth and thickness all expand, then it is called volume expansion (cubical expansion).

If a certain amount of thermal energy be supplied to the solid state then at a particular temperature (melting point of the solid) it is converted into liquid and this thermal energy is latent heat of fusion and conversely if such energy be withdrawn from the liquid it would be transformed back into the solid state. Similarly the liquid is converted into the gas (vapour) at a particular temperature (boiling point of the liquid) and the thermal energy supplied is latent heat of vapourisation. Conversely by withdrawing required thermal energy, the gas could be again transformed back into the liquid state. \feam at 100°C is hotter than water at 100°C though waters boiling. This is strange but true because boiling water has only thermal energy whereas steam has thermal energy plus latent heat of vaporisation. Because of this steam is more painful than boiling water. Most metals are found tobe in solid state but mercury (Hg)exceptionally is the only metal found in liquid state. contdiveastitle Melti: int of a solid : A constant temperature at which a solid teanstonned Into liquid by the supplied heat energy of latent heat of fusion is called its melting point (m.p).

Examples : Metals, acidic water, human body ete. are good, conductors. (b) Bad Conductor : The substances through which heat is not transmitted easily and conveniently and a little amount of heat transfers are called bad conductors. Examples- Wood, fiber, glass, rubber, air etc. are bad conductors. (©) Thermal Insulator : The substances through which heat is not transmitted by any means (methods) are called thermal insulators. In fact bad conductors are sometimes synonymously used as thermal insulators. Thus, we cansay bad conductors are good insulators. In garments and cloths air is trapped which provides a good insulating characteristic. Examples— Abonite, asbestos etc are insulators. (ii) Convection : In the process of convection heat is transmitted in the substance by transfer of molecules (particles) of the substance and thus a current due to the molecules transfer is generated which is called convectional current. . Whenever a liquid or a gas is heated, the molecules (particles) of these substances become lightened and move upwards and then cooler molecules settle downwards and heated. Now @ convectional current is formed and heat is transmitted throughout i the liquid or gas. The atmosphere of our earth is heated by the process o! convection.

Boltzmann established this law theoretically from a thermodynamical consideration and hence an extended form of Stefan's law is called Stefan Boltzmann's law which is stated as below—_ . if a black body at an absolute temperature T is surrounded black body at an absolute temperature T, then it will lose an ae of energy OT per sec per unit area and will gain an amount of energy oT, per sec per unit area from the surroundings. Hence the net loss of energy per sec per unit area of the body will be E = o(T4— T') which is called Stefan—Boltzmann’s law. ° Newton's law of cooling : It states that the rate of loss of heat energy of any hot body by the process of thermal radiation is proportional to the difference between the mean temperature and the surroundings.

Gi) Quasi-Statie process :A processin which asystem never works more than infinitesimal (very small) from the equilibrium state and itis called a quasi-static process. Thus, the quasi-static process is an ideal process which can never be exactly obtained but can be approximated under some specific circumstances. ; (ii) Reversible and Irreversible process : A reversible process is one which can be reversed in such a way that all changes taking place in the ated in the reverse order (opposite sense) and no changes are left in any of the bodies taking part in the process or in the surroundings. The conditions of reversibility are never realised in practice, hence a reversible process is only an ideal conception. Any process which is not reversible exactly is an irreversible process. All natural processes such as conduction, radiation, radioactive decay etc. are irreversible processes. Thus, irreversibility is a rule. (iv) Isothermal and Adiabatic process: When thermodynamic system undergoes through a process in which its temperature remains constant, then the process is said to be isothermal. The essential condition for an isothermal process is that the system must be contained in a perfectly ) conducting chamber and it occurs extremely slowly in which the heat produced or absorbed during the process at once goes out or comes in from outside. Hence, temperature will remain constant but as there is no perfect conductor, so isothermal process cannot be performed exactly but can only be approximated. Ideal gas equation PV = RT is directly applicable for an isothermal process. But when a thermodynamic system undergoes a process under the condition thatno heat comes into or goes out of the system, then the process said to be adiabatic. Such process can occur when the system is perfectly insulated from the surroundings. But since no perfect insulator is available, perfect adiabatic change is impossible. Thereby, an approximate adiabatic process can be obtained (achieved). It is an extremely rapid or fast process because there isa very little time for the heat to go out or to come into the system. The equation PV’ = constant is directly applicable and relevant for an adiabatic process, where y = specific heat capacities ratio of the ideal gas. direct process are exactly rep Examples: Ifa gas is suddenly compressed, the heat of compression is added to its internal energy and its temperature rises. That's why the bicycle pump is heated when the air in it issuddenly compressed. Similarly, if a gas is suddenly expanded, then the extemal work done during it against the surroundings draws energy (equivalent to the work done) from its internal energy and its temperature falls.

In the process of evaporation (vaporisation) the heat energy is supplied by the inner molecules of the liquid and when a sufficient heat energy is acquired by the molecules of outer surface then these molecules start to detach from the liquid. Thus, vapour is formed and along with themselves molecules have lower heat energy and ultimately temperature falls. Thus evaporation is a process of obtaining the cooling from the liquid. The evaporation depends on various factors like amount of vapour present in atmosphere, the area of ihe liquid surface, the temperature of the liquid etc. If the water vapour f.esent in the atmosphere is large then the rate of evaporation is least and vice-versa. That's why in summer wet clothes are dehydrated soon and made dry in short interval of time, while inrainy season the process of drying takes a longer time. Insummer, surahi (water container made of ceramic) by the evaporation process lowers the temperature and water becomes cool. If the body temperature of a man/ women due to suffering of a severe fever becomes extremely high then on keeping the weted cloth on his /her forehead such high temperature can be lowered down through the process of evaporation.

Nature and Speed of Light Light: Lightis an external cause due to which any objectbecomes visible for human eye. For the illumination or visibility of an object light incidents. upon it (up tg.1/6th second), Then after reflection it comes to the eye and then the object is seen. At present light is defined in the form of an energy which transmits (propagates) as an electromagnetic wave and whose energy 1S confined in the form of a small packet called photon.

The formation of various types of shadows, the formation of image through a pin hole camera, occurrence of solar and junar eclipses etc. are the examples of rectilinear propagation of light. Miscellaneous (i) Firstly Newton asserted that light is made of micro particles or corpuscules: and it moves in a straight line. Newton also speculated that white light is made of all the seven colours. (ii) Huygens propounded the wave theory of light. Which asserted that light can be displayed in the form of waves. (iii) Young propounded the theory of Interference of light. Young’s experiment was the base of the verification and confirmation of wave theory for the physicists. (iv) Maxwell propounded the theory of electromagnetism in 1864. According to Maxwell the oscillating electricand magnetic fields generate an electromagnetic wave perpendicular to each other and its direction of propagation is perpendicular to each electric and magnetic field. This theory was verified by Hertz and later on commercial level too much work was done by Marconi in this regard. (v) Max. Planck in 1900 gave the famous quantum theory by the help of an equation F = hv, where h is called Planck's constant and v is the frequency of emitted photon. He also explained that the energy in the electromagnetic wave is quantized and appears descretly in the form of packet called quantum and this energy is confined in the form of a pocket called photon. This concept became the origin of Quantum mechanics later. (vi) Einstein on the basis of a comperhensive observation and speculation in 1905 declared that the light is quantized and the energy is divided into a small group called quanta and the corpuscule of the light is called photon. Sources of light: Thesun, stars and other celestial bodies inouruniverse are the natural sources of light.

When the light rays incident on one side of this fibre by making a very small angle, then these are refracted insicle it. Thus incident rays after being totally internally reflected collide with the otha. end of the fibre. On this limiting surface upto which optical fibre is confined again the angle of incidence becomes greater than the critical angle and total internal reflection takes place again.

Interference of light waves In general interference is the phenomenon of sustained cancellation or reinforcement of two waves when they meet under certain specific conditions. When the effect of one wave is constantly neutralised by the other, two waves are said to interfere destructively and when their effects are reinforced they are said to interfere constructively. Thus, we can say that when two waves of the same frequency travel in same direction and have a phase difference that remains constant with time, the resultant intensity of light is not distributed uniformly in space. The non-uniform distribution of light intensity due to superposition of two waves is called interference. At some points intensity is maximum and interference at these points is called constructive interference. At some other points intensity is minimum (possibly even zero) and interference at these points is called destructive interference, Usually when two light waves are made to interfere, we get alternate dark and bright bands of a regular or irregular shape. These are called interference fringes. Interference is the most fundamental characteristic of a wave and there isno loss of energy in it, there is only redistribution of energy from maxima to minima. The phenomenon of interference was firstly demonstrated by Thomas Young in his experiment called Young's double slit experiment. Examples related to interference (i) The kerosene oil spread on the water surface seems to have a decent colour because of interference of the light. (ii) The soap bubbles have a brilliant colour in the sunlight because of interference of the light. Coherence : A wave which has a pure sine wave for an infinitely large Period of time or for an infinitely extended space is said to be a perfectly coherent wave. In such a wave there is a definite relationship between the Phase of the wave at a given time and at a certain time or distance later at given point same condition is again satisfied.

This shows that light which travels the obsta pen is small (comparable to the wavelength of the light), there nt Parture from straight line propagation and so the light bends round tl fe comers of the obstacle (aperture) and enters in the geometrical shadow. This bending of the light is called diffraction, Consequently, the edges of the shadow (or illuminated region) are not sharp, but the intensity is distributed ina certain Way depending upon the nature of the obstacle (aperture). Thus, if the size of the obstacle is in the order of the Wavelength of light, then diffraction will be appeared which is clear and dist, ‘intive.

The intensity is maximum when the jwsof P,i5 parallel to that of P,, and minimum when itis at right angles. This shows that the light emerging from P, is not symmetrical about the giqection of propagation of light, but its vibrations are confined only to.a Vingle line in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation. Such jight 1s called plane-polarised or linearly-polarised light. According to the electromagnetic theory of light, a light wave consists ofelectric and magnetic vectors vibrating in mutually perpendicular planes, oth being perpendicular to the direction of propagation of light. The electric veetor acts like a light vector. Hence, the plane-polarised light is a light in. which the light vector vibrates along a fixed straight line in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation. symbolical representation Unpolarived light % : > Vibration parallel to the plane of paper Plane polarised tight revenge Pe Vibration perpendicular to the > 2 2-> plane of paper As in an unpolarised beam of light all directions of vibration at right angles to that of propagation of light are possible, hence it is represented by a star. In a plane-polarised beam of light the vibrations are along a single straight line. If the vibrations are parallel to the plane of the paper, they are represented by the arrows. If they are along a straight line perpendicular to the plane of paper, they are represented by dots. Light waves are transverse : In tourmaline experiment, the variation in intensity of the emergent light on rotation of P, (First section of the polarisation) shows that light waves are transverse. But if the waves were longitudinal i.e. having vibration along the direction of propagation of light, they will have passed through P, in all positions of it. Thus, polarisation of light takes place with transverse waves only and doesn't occur with longitudinal waves. That’s why sound (longitudinal) wave doesn't exhibit the phenomenon of polarisation. Doubly-Refracting crystals ; There are certain crystals which splita ray of light incident upon them into two refracted rays. Such crystals are called doubly-refracting crystals. These are of two types : uniaxial and biaxial. In uniaxial crystals there is one direction called optic axis along which the two. refracted rays travel with the same velocity. The examples of such crystals are calcite, tourmaline and quartz. In biaxial crystals there are two optic axes. The examples of biaxial crystals are topaz and arogonite. Double refraction: Whenaray of unpolarised light incidents onacalcite (or quartz) crystal, it splits up into two refracted rays. The phenomenon is called double refraction.

Hence it is eal led an extragra ray (E-ray), Along the optic axis, however, O-ray and E-ray both have Wd same velocity and hence the same refractive ancien ordinary ray (On! and an extraordinary ray (E-ray) obtained through the double “Fraction viene peiaiee Itis an optical device made from a calcite crystal icol's prism: It is an i whe sated ecieciay and analyzing the plone-polaried ign hig Dichroism : Some doubly-refracting crystals have the propery : absorbing strongly one of the two refracting rays, while allowing theougt to emerge with a little loss. This selected absorption by the erystal ig; nowy as dichroism. The best example of such a crystal is tourmaline. When aray of unpolarised light is sent through a 1 mm thick, tourmay plate then it splits up fats plane polarised lightin which O-ray and Eval vibrate in mutually perpendicular planes. O-ray is completely absor while E-ray istotally transmitted. Thus, the light emerging through theplats is plane-polarised. This is the basic principle of the commercial Polarising devices called polaroids. Polaroid : It is a large-sized polarising film mounted between ty glass plates, and is used to obtain plane-polarized light for the commercia Purposes. The film consists of a thin sheet of nitro-cellulose packed with ultra microscopic crystals of the organic compound iodosulphate quinine {also called herapathite) with their optic axes all parallel. These crystal, are highly dichroic, absorbing one of doubly-refracted beams completely. Hence when a beam of unpolarised light passes through the polaroid film, the emerging light is plane-polarised | Recently large-sized polaroids have been made by stretching a film of polyvinyl! alcohol. The stretching orients the complex molecules with theig long axes in the direction of stress and makes them doubly-refracting, Then the film is impregnated with iodine which makes it dichroic Such polaroids are called H-polaroids. If instead of iodine impregnation, the stretched film is heated with a dehydrating agent, then it slightly darken and becomes strongly dichroic. It is called k-polaroid. Uses of polaroids (i) Polaroids are used in the laboratory to produce and analyse a plane- polarised light. These are cheaper than Nicole (ii) K-polaroids are used in head-lights and wind-sereens of cars to-cul off the dazzling light of a car approaching from the opposite side. They are fitted in the head-light and wind-screen of the car with their vibration planes parallel to each other but inclined at 45° to the vertical. When two ars approach each other from the: Opposite sides then through the vibration- plane of polaroids light is sent out to each other and hence light coming from the head light of one car is completely cut off by the wind-screen the another car and thus the driver ig able to see the other car by the light box: Sent out from his (or her) own car.

The tip of the vector traces a circle and the light is said to be circularly-polarised. If, although the magnitude of the resultant light vector varies periodically during its rotation, the tip of the vector traces an ellipse, the light is said to be eiliptically-polarised. Thus, there are usually three types of polarised light which exist in nature. y of light in entering trains window,-while the other is e Intensity of light can be adjusted 10. Scattering of light When light waves fall on extremely small bodies (particles) such as dust particles, very small suspended water droplets, suspended particles in colloidal solution etc then these are thrown out in all directions. This phenomenon of light is known as scattering. Here bodies are small in the sense of theirsizesand aresmaller than thesizes (wavelengths) of theincident waves. Thus, the strength of scattering depends upon the wavelength of the light beside the size of the bodies (particles) which cause scattering, If these particles are smaller than the wavelength of the incident light, then the scattering is proportional to 1 This is called Rayleigh’s law of scattering. x Thus, red light is scattered least and violet is scattered most. That's why ted signals are used to indicate dangers. Such a signal appears to be visible at a larger distances without an appreciable loss due to scattering. Incidents of the scattering of light in our daily life— (i) Due to the scattering of light sky appears blue ; When we look at the sky it is scattered light from the atmosphere that enters the eyes. Among, the shorter wavelength the colour blue is present in larger proportion in the light.

Human eye : The human eye is like a Sclerotic camera with the help of which We see the objects. Human eye is externally very hard and it is covered with a opaque white membrane which is called sclerotic. The front part of sclerotic is concave which is called cornea. During eye donation This part (comea) is a donated. | A light ray enters the eye | through cornea, Behind the cornea which is called Iris. In the middle of the Iris there is a sharp hole, which is Ciliary muscles Vitreous Humour Visionary muscles Aqueous Humour Black colour Membrane Human Eye a colour opaque membrane is located called pupil. tris controls the amount of light which enters the eye. If more light comes inte t, then automatically itis compresses itseli- Alo in dack OF insufficient light it (iris) automatically expands. Behind the pupil the located. The eye lens is made from many layers whose wee refraction increases from outside to inside and itemean index of refractionis approximately 1.44, Theeye lens is confined with in the musclular region and itis capable of adjusting its focal length. That's why humaneye hasa variable nature of focal length. Between cornea and eye lensa saline transparent fluid is filled up which is called aqueous humour and ite index of refraction is 1.336. Behind the eye lens another transparent fluid is also found whichis called vitreous humour and whose index of refraction ig also 1,336, Behind sclerotic there is a black coloured membrane which is called choroid. It absorbs the light and stops the process of internal reflection. Inside this membrane and in the innermost part of the eye there is a transparent membrane which is called retina. The retina is basically a film of optical nerves and these nerves produce the sensation of the image formed in mind (brain). Thus, shape, size and colour of the object's image is observe by the human eye. When alight ray incidents on an object, then by reflection it passes through the cornea and aqueous humour reaches to the ret retina (used as screen for the glass lens) a real and inverted image a Scanned by CamScanner Physics ut is formed and this message is sent tothe humanbrain by the visionary (optic) nerves and the brain realises the real erected image. There is no of light is found the place (point) where optic nerves by making the hole in the retina goes upto brain. This place is called blind spot. There isa mid-point in the retina which is of yellow colour. Here the obtained image svery sharp and distinctive. It is called yellow Spot. Power of accommodation of eye : To see any object distinctly (clearly) itisnecessary that the light ray reflected from object be totally confined on the retina. In usual condition the light rays co are assumed to be confined on the reti then eye muscles start to shrink and reduce th iii surfaces. Here the focal length of the eye len: starts to form on the retina. This adjustment of the focal length of the eye is called Power of accommodation of the eye. As we try to look at the nearest abject more and more power of accommodation of the eye is required and ithas also a limit. If any object is kept very close to the eye it doesn't look distinct. Thus the maximum accommodation power of eye is applied to the nearest object which looks sharp and distinct. This distance of distinct vision iscalled the least distance of distinct vision and fora normal human eye itis 25m. But inversely the eye without applying the power of accommodation can see distinctly any object located at far point and for a normal human eyc itis infinity (2). ” Colour vision: There are two types of cells found in the retina of theeye which are optically sensitive. These are called cones and rods. Cone shaped cells react aecording to the consistency of the colours by which we realise about the colours, Rod shaped cells react according to the consistency of the intensity of light. This is very sensitive for the dim light. That's why we also speculate (guess) about the object in the dark. When light is of shining (dazzling) type then rods cells stop to act and cones cells become active. A normal human eye's retina has three types of cones cells — G)_ First type-Sensitive to the lightof shorter wavelength (blue colour) (ii) Second type-Sensitive to the light of middle range wavelength (green colour) Gii) Third type-Sensitive to the light of longer wavelength (red colour) Chromatic adaptation : If a piece of glazed (shined) colour Paper is ‘aken and half part of itis covered, then on looking up to approximately 30 seconds at the rest of the piece and if the covered part is now made open then on looking at the entire piece the covered part appears more glazed. This optical incident is called chromatic adaptation. Successive contrast :If we lookat a coloured image up toapproximately 30 seconds and a white surface is seen then a post-image appears, whose Peand size is equal to that of the real image, but its colour is different. If the real image is red then its post-image is green and vice-versa. If the real mage is blue then its post-image in yellow and vice-versa and for the white fenimage its post-image is black and vice-versa.

This special characteristic of called persistence of vision. Cinema works on this principle. Due to persistence of vision various celestial phenomena occur in the sky. The blades of fast moving electric fan also appears indistinctive due to the same reason. 12.

But in folding camera this box is made of leather whose length is not fixed. This box is fully enclosed from every side so that no external light ray can enter inside to it. The inner part of the walls are black polished due to which light ray doesn’t reflect. Lens: In front of the light insulated box a convex lens is enclosed which is called objective. In good quality cameras the objective is made from the composition of various lenses. Due to it aberration in the image doesn't appear. Diaphragm : Just in front of the objective a round metallic screen is enclosed in which a hole is made through which the light in the camera enters which is called diaphragm. The size of the hole is adjustable which can be increased or decreased according to requirement Shutter : Behind the lens an autocut plate is attached which is called shutter. Whenevera shutter is enclosed light doesn't enter inside the camera. During taking photographs it is opened and light is focused on the film or photographic plate upto a definite time interval like 1/10. 1/50. 1/100, ...

Also Coulomb's force is similar to the gravitational force and this force (weakest force) is only attractive in nature by the virtue of their masses (no concept of -ve mass) while coulombian force is both attractive and repulsive and predominants from any larger distance up to 10° m.

Electric flux : The electric flux is defined as the product of the electric field intensity and the outward normal area of any ae EN particular patch where an electric field is assumed A E to be confined. Itis represented by ,. Thus; = EA. Its SI unit E is N/coul.m? or volt-metre.

The first advantage is that Gauss’s law ‘tarts with the concept of electric field, which is more fundamental than interaction of charges with which coulomb's law deals. According to modem field theory approach, the interaction between the two charges* “ceursabundently through the electricfield. Thesecond advantageis that all Scanned by CamScanner www -wvisionias.net 16 General Science those results which were given by coulomb's law alter tedious catay were too complicated but it had much simpler way by Gauss's Jno Electric potential: The electric potential at any point is defined work done by an external agent in bringing a unit positive test, charger infinity to that point confined in an electric field. Fp, Thus, if W work is done in bringing a unit positive test charge 4, fy w ow. Ye %. 4 S.L. unit of electric potential is Joule/coul. or volt. The special unit electric potential is volt in the honour of an Italian scientist Al Volta. The electric potential is a scalar quantity. If 1 coulomb +Ve test che is brought from infinity (c) to any point and thus, does a work of 1 Joule then 1 volt potential is said to be confined at that point. Zero potential : For the measurement of any physical quantity usual a standard parameter or reference point is taken, whose indicator reads zero level. Thus, to measure electric potential earth is taken to be a referenc. level and the value of electric potential at any point on the earth's surfage is assumed (o be zero. Our earth is a great conductor in which addition @ Subtraction of some charges do not change the value of its potential. Thate why at every point of earth's surface electric potential is assumed to be always zero, Potential difference or Potential drop : If in an electric field a unit Positive test charge is carried out by an external agent from one point to another, then the work done in this process is called potential difference {p-d) between both the points. ‘The p.d. is measured in volt and it is also a scalar quantity, ¢ inside potential of a hollow conductor : Whenever a hollow conductor iselectrified (charged), then the charges accumulate on the outer surface of the conductor and this charge doesn't enter the hollow part of the conductor. Thus there is no inside charge but the potential of the part (hollow part) is not zero. In fact every point inside the conductos has equal potential and it is equal to the potential of the conductor, Electrical capacity and capacitor or condenser : When a conductor is given a charge, its potential rises in Proportion to the charge given. ‘Thu: charge Q raises the potential of a conductor by V, thenQ2 Vie. Q = CV, where Cis a constant depending upon the size and shape of the conductor, the surrounding medium and the Presence of another conductors near by to it. This constant C is called electrical capacity or capacitance of the conductor. Thus c= 2 infinity to a point then electric potential at that point = V of 5.1. unit of the electrical capacitance is farad. Itis also observed that farad is a too larp, | units like microfarad and picofarad are used ‘Thus we use: F microfarad (1yy) = 10-4, 3 picofarad (1p/) ~ 19-1%4, ih a Scanned by CamScanner {8 coul./volt and its special name 4 ° 4ne yr If Ce the capacitance of the sphere then C = The potential is given by V = = Axe,r. => capacitance (C) = This concludes that the capacitance of = iene proportional to its radius. Capacitor or Condensor : An isolated capacity of storing the charges i.e. only very acallamonctat ch cpoeles to the conductor raises its potential by a large amount. If Weweves cectondl earthed conductor is placed near it, then an equal and opposite amount ot - charges are induced on the front surface of the second Conductor uhich lowers the potential of the first conductor. Thus capacitance of theconductor increases. Such a pair of conductors which can storea good amount of charge is called a capacitor or condensor. The conductors are called the plates of the capacitor. The net charge on a capacitor means the magnitude of charge on either plate. There are broadly three types of capacitors—Where. ; ( eA A= area (1) Parallel-plate capacitor (C= <0") d= plate separation - | ab \ % b= inner and outer (2) Spherical capacitor = (C=4r€, real Brerical or cylin Qne,t) Fadil Di [= length of the cylinder tog, (2) . Dielectric : A dielectric (an insulator) is a material in which all the electrons are tightly bound to the nuclei of the atoms. Thus there are no free electrons to generate the current. Hence, the electrical conductivity of adiclectric is very low. The conductivity of an ideal dielectric is zero. Glass, mica, plastic, oil etc. are examples of dielectrics. Dielectric constant : When a dielectric material is kept between the plates of a capacitor, the capacitance of the capacitor increases. The ratio of the capacitance of a given capacitor with the material (dielectric) filling the entire space between its plates to the capacitance of the same capacitor in vacuum is called dielectric constant or specific inductive capacity oftie Material. Thus, if C, is the capacitance with dielectric materi I and C, thal f without dielectri¢ in the vacuum, then dielectric constant () = Cyl. The value of dielectric constant is independent from theshape and size the capacitor, but its value varies widely for different materials. = vacuum; (k)=1air; (k)=1.006 glass; (k) = 6 re ~onpolar and olecules : The molecules of ‘ified as Dorota paler Anonpolar molecule is one in Scanned by CamScanner ted sphere is directly (3) Cylindrical capacitor ( - electrics are which the wisionias.nmet Are .

That's why the conventional currentis assumed to flow from a low potential to a high potential or opposite to the direction of flow of charge carriers (electrons) in metallic conductors.

In electric cells the chemical +vely charged is called anode and collected ions are called anions, while the metallic rod which is ~vely charged is called cathode and collected ions are called cations, These metallic rods (electrodes) are kept inside the solvent of the container called electrolyte. Usually electric cells are of two types : (© Rema ii) () Primary cell: Ina primary cell chemical energy is directly converted into electrical energy and when all the chemical energy is exhausted (used up) the cell becomes dead. e entire process is completed by charging and during irged then it is again charged and this is the Process (way) ofits functioning. That's why all the secondary cells are rechargeable. Process of recharging is done through an external source of electrical energy. The battery or cell attached in motor vehicle, motor bike, emergency light etc, are the examples of secondary cell. Copper Voltaic cell: The voltaiccell was invented rod (Cu) by Professor Alsendro Volta in 1799. In this cell azincrod and a copper rod are keptinside the 8lass container of sulphuric acid (H,SO,).

If E, V and I are the emf, potential difference (pd) and electric current respectively, then the internal resistance of the cell is given by wibe¥ 1 __ Electric Conduction; Ohm's law : Firstly, a German physicist George Simen Ohm invented a relation between electric current and potential differencebetween any two points of a conductor. Hestated that ata constant aes the current passed through any conductor is Proportional to \e corel difference of any two points and this is called Ohm's law.

Thus resistance incresses with rise of temperature of the conductor and vice-vene (iv) On the area of cross-section—The resistance of the conductor decreases with increase in the area of cross-section and vice-versa. Ohmic resistance ; The conductor which follows Ohm's law is called Ohmic resistor and the corresponding resistance is called Ohmic resistance. Example — Manganese wire, copper wire, aluminium wire ete, Non-Ohmic resistance : The conductor which doesn't follow ohm’s law iscalled non-ohmic resistor and the corresponding resistance is called none ohmic resistance. The non-ohmic resistor (non-linear curve) follows Child Langmuir’s law. Example~ Diode valve, triode valve ete.

Magnetic effect : Whenever an electric current passes through any conductor, then a magnetic field is produced (generated) around the conductor. In 1820 an observation was made by Oersted who saw that when amagneticneedle is brought near a current carrying wire (conductor), thenit isdeflected. But this needle only deflects in magnetic field which obviously confirms that current carrying conductor produces magnetic field. This is called magnetic effect of the current. The direction of magnetic field is given by Maxwell's Cork-Screw rule, Fleming right hand rule etc. Maxwell's Cork-Serew rule (law) : If a cork-screw be taken in right hand and rotated in such a way that electric current is passed forward in heclirection of on the direction of the thumb of the hand isalon Scanned by CamScanner visionias.net wre ighthandis keptoma, je: Tfthe right i Doyo veingn ant ile oe a wire in such away that Uremand if forefinger is along tic nee ate nger i long, the deflection of Ihe magnetic needle Pot middle fing ie aaong the direction of the magn ; Of force thumb of the hand is = yaa charge carriers activate in a conductoy Lorene, fore ed while if these free charge carriers start 3 anclectric fil d every current carrying cong, then alecte cunent Prete tt nate pertide hes bak electnie has a magnetic field.

A=normal vector area, Magnetic field : The region (space) around a magnet which has the magneticeffectis called magnetic field. A magnetic field issaid tobe existing atapoint ifitean exert a force on a current carrying conductor. The magnetic field has a unit normal area. Units of magnetic field intensity (strength) : SI unit of the magnetic field intensity(strength) is Te/sa. The magnetic field is also expressed in weber/metre*. Thus, 1 Tesla = 1 weber/m?. C.GS. unit of magnetic field intensity is Gauss[1 Tesla = 10° Gauss, SI unit of magnetic field strength. 1 Tesla (T)= 1 NA mt = 1 weber/m? = 10* Gauss.

An ideal ammeter is one which has sere nea eo ingete, Te of ‘etic ammeter of low resistance is more accurate although it is less sensitive. the Voltmeter : Voltmeter is a potential difference (pd) measuring device and basically it is a high resistance moving coil galvanometer. It i alwars % connected in parallel to the resistance across which pd. is to be meseret, = Its reading is not accurate because it draws current so the p.d. across the resistance decreases (since the current through it decreases). Hence a voltmeter of high resistance is more accurate. In fact an ideal voltmeter is noid of one which has infinite resistance and it measures accurately, although no current is passed throught it. Potentiometer : Potentiometer is a device > to measure the emf of a cell or p.d. between vy, the ends of a current-carrying conductor a ~ without drawingany current from the circuit.It 4 operateson the principle that an emfor p.d. can be balanced against another emfor p.d. which produces a zero current. Ina potentiometer the emfof a battery D (called the driving battery) is distributed over a long uniform wire AB of high resistivity and p.d. between osed any two points of it (one fixed at the left end A and otherissliding)is applied + the against emf or p.d. to be measured. The sliding point J is then moved over the wire, until both are balanced to each other. A sensitive galvanometer indicates whether the current in the circuit is zero or not. When there is no deflection in the galvanometer then p.d. between A and] = emf of the test cell. Electromagnetic induction : Faraday in 1831 discovered that whenever the magnetic flux (number of lines of induction) passing through a circuit fe anges, an emf is produced in the circuit. If the circuit is closed, a current ‘se flows through it. The emf and current so produced are called induced He emf and induced current, while the magnetic flux regularly changes.

Thus, those solutions in which electric eument can passare called electrolytes, Thereby, whenever in any aqueous solution of salt, acid or alkali an electric current is passed and if these solutions decompose into +ve and -ve ions then this is called chemical effect of the electric current and the phenomenon is called electrolysis, The equipment in which electric decomposition occurs is called voltameter, Two metallic conductors which are kept at the entrance and exit of the voltameter are called electrodes. The electrode through which electric current enters inside the voltameter is called anode, while the electrode through which electric current comes out is called cathode. Thus +ve electrode is anode and —ve lectrade is cathode. Whenever an electric current is passed through the any electrolyte, cations flow towards the cathode and anions flow towards the anode during the electrolysis. _ Accumulator or secondary cell : In accumulator cell electrical energy isstored up in the form of chemical energy and when this accumulator cell ‘s connected through any circuit then the stored chemical energy is being Start to transform into electrical energy, slowly and steadily.

Scanned by CamScanner www wisionias.nmct a bad General Science resistance in the circuit. Although there is a wastage of energy (FR pg, second) in the form of a Joule’s heat. In an a.c. circuit the current can jy alternatively be reduced by inserting a coil of thick copper woung closely in a large number of turns over soft-iron laminated core. Such a coi, offers a large reactance (Lw) and contributes to the impedance (resistance a.c,) of the circuit, Hence it reduces the a.c. appreciably. Such a coil is catjay Choke-coil. The average power di and the power factor is cos pated in the choke coil is P = 3 V, 1, cosp R L Here the inductance L of the choke coil is quite large on account of its la; number of turns and the high permeability of iron core, while its resistance R is very small. Here cos@ is nearly zero. So the power absorbed by the coi} is extremely small and thus choke coil reduces the strength of the current without appreciable wastage of energy. The only waste of energy is duetothe hysteresis lossin the iron core. The loss due to eddy currents is minimised making the core laminated. The choke-coils are used in electrical appliances like in tube light, radio, electric fan etc, Preference of a choke-coil over an ohmic resistance : The current in an a.c, circuit can also be diminished by using an ordinary ohmic resistance (rheostat) in the circuit. Butsucha controlling method of a.c. isnoteconomical as much of the electrical energy (Rt) supplied by the source is wasted as heat. Hence a choke coil is preferred over the ohmic resistance, Transformer : A transformer is an electrical device which converts a jernating current (a.c.) into a smalll alternating current (a.c.) at high .c.Jand vice-versa. The transformers which convert a low voltage intoa higher ones are called step uptransformers, while those which convert ahigh voltage into a lower ones are called step down transformers. A simple transformer consists of two coils— called primary and secondary, which are insulated from each other and which are wound ona common soft-iron laminated core. The alternating voltage to be transformed is connected to the primary, while the load is connected to the secondary. In a step-up transformer the primary coil consists of a large number of turns of thin insulated copper wire, while reverse is the case ina step-down transformer. When an alternating voltage is applied to the primary, an alternating current (a.c.) flows in the coil. This sets up analternating magnetic flux in the core. This magnetic flux is linked up with both the primary and secondary. Hence an induced alternating emf is produced in the primary as well as in the secondary. If in a transformer, the no. of turns in primary and secondary coils are N, and N. and V,, V, are the induced emfs in primary and secondary coils then for an ideal'transformer.

The part linking the primary only is the primary linkage flux and the part inking the secondary only is the secondary ¥ and linkage flux. The loss due to this is minimised by eliminating the air gaps dona in the magnetic circuit, by using core of a particular shape, and by having, ormed special forms of coil windings. dary.

The current of radio etc. But the current of 15 ampere is used in electrical appliances like a 5 ampere is used in electrical appliances like electric bulbs, T.V,, tube light, 7 electric heater, electric iron, refrigerator etc. 1 Domestic wiring :In domestically supplied current three typesof wires are utilised which are live, neutral and connected to the earth (earthing). F the live wire electric current is Passed, while throught uutral Wire current goes back. In home usually two types of circuits are installed in which one circuit is for 5 ampere appliances and another for 15 ampere appliances. Earthing wire directly 80es to the earth and it is a means or way of safety. In every circuit the electrical appliances are attached between the live wire and neutral wire. For the regulation of every appliance (equipment) there is a switch which ‘Sattached in every circuit from the live wire. In home the distribution of power is made through an electric meter electric meter measures the power in kilo watt hour (kWh) which is “xpressed in unit, The power distribution through the meteris: done by abe Pairs of wires grouped in parallel combination.

Whenever overloading or a short circuiting occurs anywhere in the circuit, the cure” of a very large magnitude starts to flow in the wire and the wire of electric fuse melts so that the concerned appliancesare prevented to dama, Always electric fuse is attached through the live or hot wire. Norma; electric fuse is made of tin but good quality of fuse is made from the si” of copper, tin and lead. Usually the electrical circuit from where the currer) of 15 ampere is permissible to flow then thick wire is used for the fuse ang through it maximum current passing capacity is of 15 ampere. Similar} the electrical circuit from where the current of 5 ampere is permitted to pass, a thin wire fuse is used and its maximum current passing capacity is of $ ampere. Socket ; The socket is a three cylindrical holes fibre structure device from where three wires pass. In the socket, the uppermost hole is large from which earthing wire passes and from the lowermost right small hole live wire passes, while from the lowermost left small hole neutral wire ‘passes, Plug : In the plug there are three cylindrical needles which can be completely enclosed in the socket. When any plug fits directly witha socket then corresponding appliance is connected to mains (circuit) directly. Regulator : The regulator acts (works) like a current controller in the electrical circuits. This is used normally to increase or decrease the speed of electric fan. Whenever the knob of the regulator is rotated then the electric resistance of the wire increases or decreases by which the quantity of electric current decreases or increases. Electric switch : Through an electric switch the current in the circuit ‘er stopped or surpassed. With the electrical appliances like bulb, fan ete. switches are connected in series. While the switch is always connected between the phase wire and the appliance, but the neutral wire is directly connected to the. appliance. Since the voltage of the phase wire is about 220 volt and during the off time or when appliances be not in action, phase wire must be detached from the appliances. If this is not to be done then appliance even in the absence of its action can provide a sharp electric shock to anybody who will touch the appliance. This detachment of the phase wire with the appliances are completed by installing the electric switches at suitable places in the electric circuits.

Bismuth, antimony, gold, water alcobol, quartz, hy, ete are the examples of such substances. Paogen When a bar of diamagnetic substance is kept in an external field, fy, density of it is less than the flux density of the free space. Thus, relativs permeability , for diamagnetics is less than 1.

(b) Ina non-uniform field a diamagnetic substance tends to move from a stronger to a weaker parts of the field. If a diamagnetic liquid is kept in a pieces very near to each other, the liquid is watch glass resting on two pole- ides where the field is weaker, producing a depression accumulated on the si in the middle. The reverse effect is observed when the poles are far apart. (c) A diamagnetic field shows a depression in the limb of a U-tube kept between the pole-pieces of a magnet. (d) When a diamagnetic gas is allowed to ascend in between the poles ‘of a magnet across the field it spreads. (e) The susceptibility of the diamagnetic substance is independent of temperature. (iii) Ferromagnetic substance : The ferromagnetic substances are those which are strongly magnetised by a relatively weaker magnetic field and it has the same sense as the applied magnetic field. Iron, cobalt, nickel, godolinium and their alloys etc. are the most important ferromagnetics. Ferromagnetics show all the characteristics of a paramagnetic toa much higher degree. The ferromagnetic substances have relative permeabilities of the order of the hundreds and thousands. The flux density in them may be hundreds and thousands times as great as that of the free space due to the same magnetising force. The flux density B in a ferromagnetic substance is hot directly proportional to the magnetising force H. Thus the permeability u(- 3 ) is not constant The permeability (j) of a ferromagnetic substance decreases with rise in temperature and becomes practically equal to 4, ata certain temperature, hch ss called curie temperature.

Bectron-volt : The electron-volt is a unit of energy in Atomic physicg (or particle physics) and it is expressed as below, TeV (electron-volt) = 1.6 * 107" Joule.

Every second about 10'* cosmic rays reach the earth's surface ang they have a wide range of energy from 10° to 10" electron-volts, Elster and Geital in 1899 and Wilson in 1900 firstly detected the rays. They found that the charge on very well insulated electroseo, always leaked away in time although there was no ionising agent nearey which could make the air conducting. It was then thought that the leakage of charge was due to the ionising radiation from the radioactive minerals in the earth. Victor Hess, in 1911 sent an electroscope in balloon and found that intensity of the unknown ionising radiation was la, at high altitudes of the surface of the earth.

By the use of visible light, only certain alkali metals like sodium, potassium - etccanexhibit the phenomenon ofthe photoelectric effect but using high frequency electromagnetic radiations (X-rays or rays) almost metal can show the photoelectric effect. The photoelectric effect can also be exhibited by liquids and gases. But in liquid it is called electrolysis, while in the gas it is called ionization. It is also observed that the number of photoelectrons emitted per second (photo current) varies directly with the intensity of the incident light, but the energy (maximum) of the photo electrons is independent of the intensity of the incident light. The maximum energy of the liberated photo electrons only depends on the frequency of the incident light or its wavelength. Also this energy varies linearly with the frequency or inverse linearly with the wavelength of the incident light (photon) Some terms related to photoelectric effect : 4) Work function (g) : The minimum energy of the incident photon ‘equired to liberatean electron froma metallicsurface is called photoelectric Work function (9), Thus for a photoelectric effect— Energy of radiation of photon = work function (¢), (i) Threshold fre ): The minimum frequency of the incident : ‘quency (v,) le minim 7! 7 = lation of the photon which is just sufficient to liberate an iecieat from Metallic surface is called threshold frequency (v,) for that met MF ai y of the we fit threshold frequency is nothing new but the frequency of the ion, Scanned by CamScanner on nencanancan i offect— frequen” me PRS So for a photoelecir oh emcee -The wavelength corresponding 5, O) i i, threshold frequen) te which the phenomench fF meee longest wave not possible, ‘Thus, for the oounans a ctength ()- / radiation of Photon ai (V,): That negative Pee peliase whi just eT eT cre (through ee onode To Pho ee be rea cs ema an Co vee mand moe a pt ee a kinetic energy. “Thus, this K.E. of a repelled electron is f the BV. m { og Ww .wisionias.met hotoclectric effect, the wavelengy, tt 6 given by 5 =v... =maximum velocity of repelled photo electron = where: ¢ =electronic charge (1.6 x 107” coulomb) ‘m =mass of the electron (9.1 * 107! kg.)

Intensity and Quality of X-rays : The intensity of emitted X-rays is directly proportional to the number of electrons striking the target, This in turn depends upon the filament temperature, which can be controlled by the heating current.

The permitted orbits are thosein whichangula, momentum of the electron is quantized and this angular momentum (mor) ; h of the electron is an integral multiple of sical UeGs, mor =. where n= quantum number h = Planck's constant (b) The emission (or absorption) of the radiation place when an electron jumps from one quantized (permitted) orbit to another. The radiation is emitted (or absorbed) as a single photon (quantum) whose qheray Hy is equal to the difference in energy AF of the electron in the two orbits involved, Thus, AE = hy, where, v= frequency of emitted or absorbed radiation Hence. the spectrum of the atom will have certain fixed frequencies.

The normal good conductors like Cy," ‘Au, Li, Na, Kete, donot exhibit the phenomenon of superconductivity, ont at more and more lower temperature. Thus, these are called normal meta This implies that in general not all materials are superconducting, Since the superconducting state of a material is characterised by the zen, electrical resistance even in the absence of an applied voltage and the cu, can persist for years without any detectable decay. A bulk superconduc in a weak magnetic field acts like a perfect diamagnet with zero magni, field into the interior. Ifa super conducting material is kept in a ma; field and then cooled down below its critical (transition) temperature (T ) 4 expelsalll the originally present magnetic flux from its interior and itis eae, Meissner effect. In fact this phenomenon was observed by W. Meissner anj R. Ochsenfeld in 1933. Also scientists from all over the world have been trying to devel the new materials that are superconducting at high temperatures, A breaj through in this regard come into existence when a hot superconductor was obtained in 1986. When Karl Alex Muller of IBM'S Zurich Lab made a substance of metallic oxide of lanthanum-barium-copper called ceramics that lostits electrical resistance at30 Kand it was called a hot superconducter, In 1987 the value of transition temperature (T_.) raised up to about 90 Kwhen Paul Chu and his team discovered a ceramic copper-oxide superconductor, called cuprate consisting of Yttrium, barium and copper oxide. Applications (i) Large scale application of superconductor are in the transmission ables made from superconductors can save 30 to 40 percent power which is lost the conventional system of transmission. The solenoid ‘of a superconductor can trap a large amount of electrical energy endlessly in itself. ) Extremely sophisticated electronic devices such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanners, superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs) ete. are today utilised frequently.

According to this theory the earth is confined at the commie ot le tniverse, while the sun and other planets revolve around the earth, Copernicus's Heliocentric Theory : A Polish astronomer Cope \ded the heliocentric (Sun + centric) theory in 1543 AD. Atconding to this theory the sun is confined at the centre of the universe, while re ath and other planets revolve around the sun. Thus Copernicus was the first astronomer who propounded planetary motion around the sun. Kepler's laws of planetary motion : J. Kepler (1571-1630) did rigorous study of the celestial bodies and their motion. He concluded that all the planets revolve around the sun in various elliptical paths. Galileo : Galileo (1564-1642) who was a contemporary of Kepler confirmed and supported the ideology and the comprehensive view of Kepler. The beginning of modern astronomy come into existence in 1609, when the refracting telescope was invented by Galileo. Galileo was the astronomer who discovered four satellitesof the planet Jupiter and sun spots in the sun, Galileo also asserted that the nearest star of the sun is proxima centuari. Sir Isaac Newton : British physicist New! ‘eflecting telescope in 1668 also contributed about the planetary molten the basis of the explained gravitational force-field theory. Later Newton * law of gravitation, which became the most fundamental and basic laws, was found tobe equivalent to Kepler's laws.

Origin & Evolution ofastar:H, and Hegasesin the galaxy compressed inthe condensed formbegin thelifecycleofastar which ultimately transform into tiny oort clouds. These clouds start to shrink or compress due to their own gravitational pull and a rigorous inner mechanism starts to activate and consequently this gaseous cloud is converted into star. This contracting condensed gaseous cloud is called proto star. Due to the contraction in proto star the number of collisions among the atoms of gaseous cloud largely increases and consequently temperatire is abruptly raised. The process of contraction in a star continues for approximately about one billion yearsand internal temperature isextremely increased.
