1.23 Electric field produced by the infinite line charge at a distance d having linear charge densityλ 
 is given by

E = λ2πε0d, where

E = Electric field = 9 *104 N/C


?0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.854  *10-12 C2N-1m-2

d = 2 cm = 0.02 m

Hence, λ = 9  *104 *2*π*8.854 *10-12*
 0.02 = 10μC/m

1.22

(a) Diameter of the sphere, d = 2.4 m, Radius, r = 1.2 m

Surface charge density, σ = 80 μC/m2  = 80*10-6  C/ m2

Total charge on the surface of the sphere is given by Q = σ A, where A = surface area of the sphere = 4 πr2

Hence Q = 80 *10-6*4*π*1.22 C = 1.447 *10-3 C

 

(b) The total electric flux ( φTotal ) is given by φTotal = Q?0,

where ?0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.854*10-12C2N-1 m-2,

Q = 1.447 *10-3 C

φTotal = 
 1.447*10-38.854*10-12 C-1N m2= 1.63  *108 C-1Nm2

1.21 Electric field intensity, E, at a distance d, from the centre of a sphere containing net charge q is given by the relation,

E =  14π?0*qd2

Where ?0= Permittivity of free space = 8.854 *10-12 C2N-1m-2,

q= Net charge

E = 1.5 *103 N/C

d = 2r = 20 cm = 0.2 m

q = E 4π?0*d2 = 1.5 *103*4*π* 8.854 *10-12*0.22 C = 6.67 *10-9C

= 6.67 nC

The net charge on the sphere is 6.67 nC

10.21 Consider that a single slit of width d is divided in to n   smaller slits.

Therefore width of each slit,

d ' = d n

Angle of diffraction is given by the relation,

? = d d d ? = ? d

Now, each of these infinitesimally small slit sends zero intensity in the direction of Ø.

Hence, the combination of these slits will give zero intensity.

1.20 Electric flux, φ= –1.0 *103 Nm2/C

Radius of Gaussian surface, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m

(a) Electric flux piercing through a surface depends on the net charge enclosed inside a body, not on the size of the body. Hence, if the radius is doubled, the net flux passing does not change. The net flux passing will remain as -1  N*103 Nm2/C

 

(b) The relation between point charge and the electric flux is given by φ=q?0,

Where ?0= Permittivity of free space = 8.854 *10-12 C2N-1m-2

Hence point charge q = φ* ?0= –1.0 *103* 8.854 *10-12 C = - 8.854 *10-9 C

= - 8.854*10-3μC

10.20 Weak radar signals sent by a low flying aircraft can interfere with the TV signal received by the antenna. Hence, TV signal may get distorted, resulting in shaking of picture on the TV.

This is because superposition follows from the linear character of a differential equation that governs wave motion. If y 1 and y 2 are the solutions of the second order wave equation, then any linear combination of y 1 and y 2 will also be the solution of the wave equation.

10.19 Wavelength of the light beam, ? = 500 nm = 500 * 10 - 9 m

Distance of the screen from the slit, D = 1 m n

Distance of the first minimum from the centre of the screen, x = 2.5 mm = 2.5 * 10 - 3 m

Let the width of the slit be = d

From the equation

n ? = x d D we get d = n ? D x

d = 1 * 500 * 10 - 9 * 1 2.5 * 10 - 3  = 2 * 10 - 4 m = 0.2 mm

Hence, the width of the slot is 0.2 mm

10.18 Distance between the towers, d = 40 km

Height of the line joining the hills, h = 50 m

Thus, the radial spread of the radio wave should not exceed 40 km

Since the hill is located halfway between the towers,

Fresnel's distance Z P  = 40 2 = 20 km = 2 * 10 4 m

Aperture can be taken as a = h = 50 m

Fresnel's distance is given by the relation,

Z P = a 2 ? or

? = a 2 Z P 50 2 2 * 10 4 = 0.125 m = 12.5 cm

Therefore, the wavelength of the radio wave is 12.5 cm

10.17 Answer the following questions:

(a) In a single slit diffraction experiment, the width of the slit is made double the original width. How does this affect the size and intensity of the central diffraction band?

(b) In what way is diffraction from each slit related to the interference pattern in a double-slit experiment? 40 2

(c) When a tiny circular obstacle is placed in the path of light from a distant source, a bright spot is seen at the centre of the shadow of the obstacle. Explain why?

(d) Two students are separated by a 7 m partition wall in a room 10 m high. If both light and sound waves can bend around obstacles, how is it th

10.17 If the width of the slit is made double the original width, then the size of the central diffraction band reduces to half and the intensity increases up to four times.

The interference pattern in a double-slit experiment is modulated by diffraction from each slit. The pattern is the result of the interference of the diffracted wave from each slit.

This is because light waves are diffracted from the edge of the circular obstacle, which interferes constructively at the centre of the shadow. This constructive interference produces a bright spot.

Bending of waves by obstacles by a large angle is possible when the size of the obstacle is

10.16 Wavelength of the light used, ? = 6000 nm = 600 * 10 - 9 m

Angular width of the fringe, ? = 0.1 ° = 0.1 * ? 180  rad

Angular width of a fringe is related to slit spacing (d) as ? = ? d

d = ? ? = 600 * 10 - 9 0.1 * ? 180 = 3.44 * 10 - 4 m
