Surface tension is exhibited by liquids due to force of attraction between molecules of the liquid. The surface tension decreases with increase in temperature and vanishes at boiling point. Given that the latent heat of vaporisation for water Lv = 540 k cal kg-1, the mechanical equivalent of heat J = 4.2 J cal-1, density of water ρw = 103 kg/m3, Avagadro’s No NA = 6.0 × 1026 k mole-1 and the molecular weight of water MA = 18 kg for 1 k mole.

(a) Estimate the energy required for one molecule of water to evaporate.

(b) Show that the inter–molecular distance for water is d= M A N A × 1 ρ w 1 / 3  and find its value.

(c) 1 g of wat

This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

(a) consider a horizontal parcel of air with cross section A and height dh

Let the pressure on the top surface and bottom surface be P and p+dp. If the parcel is in equilibrium , then the net upward force must be balanced by the weight

(P+dP)-PA=- ρ A d h * g

dP= - ρ g d h

negative sign shows that pressure decreases with height.

(b) let ρ o be the density of air on the surface of earth.

As per question , pressure ∝  density

P P o = ρ ρ 0

ρ = ρ o P o P

dP= - ρ o g P o P d h

d P p = - ρ o g d h P o

∫ P o P d P P = - ρ o g P o ∫ 0 h d h

In P P o = - ρ o g h P o

P=Poe(- ρ o g h P o )

(c) as P =Po e - ρ o g h P o

in P P o = - ρ o g h P o

p=1/10 Po

in( 1 10 P o P o ) =- - ρ o g h P o

in1/10 =- ρ o g P o h ρ 0

h=- P o ρ o g in1/10= - P o P o g i n ( 10 ) -1= P o P o g i n ( 10 )

= P o P o g * 2.303

= 1.013 * 10 5 1.22 * 9.8 * 2.303 = 0.16 * 10 5 m

= 16 * 103m

(d) we know that

P ∝ ρ  , temperature remain

Explanation- electric field at the axis of the ring is E=KQy/ (R2+z2)3/2 where z is distance .

F=qE=KQqy/ (R2+z2)3/2

When z<

F= 2 π w = -Kz

So force is directly proportional to – distance that is completely defined that is follows S.H.M

(b)w= π m k

T=2 π m 4 π ε o d 3 2 q 2 w=2 k q Q y R 3

T=2 √ k m

This is a Long Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Explanation- two charge -q at A and B

AB=AO+OB=2d and x= small distance perpendicular to O

When x

F=qq/4 1 4 π ε o x 2 ( 10 - 2 ) 2 where AP=BP=r but horizontal components gets cancel out each other and vertical components gets add .

If angle APO=O the net force on q along PO is F'= 2Fcos * 10

= π ε 0 = 8.98755 * 10 9 N m 2 C - 2 = π r 2

When x θ

K= 2 q 2 4 π ε o r 2 x r ,F 2 q 2 x 4 π ε o ( d 2 + x 2 ) 3 / 2

Force on charge q is proportional to its displacement from the center O and it is directed towards O

Hence we can say that motion of charge would be simple harmonic

Where w= 2 q 2 x 4 π ε o d 3 = k x   and T= 2 q 2 4 π ε o d 3

T= 2 ∝ x = 2 k m = [8π3?o md3/q2]1/2

There is another useful system of units, besides the SI/mks A system, called the cgs (centimeter-gram-second) system. In this system Coloumb's law is given by F=Qq/r2 vector r where the distance r is measured in cm (= 10–2 m), F in dynes (=10–5 N) and the charges in electrostatic units (es units), where 1es unit of charge=1/[3]x10-9C The number [3] actually arises from the speed of light in vaccum which is now taken to be exactly given by c = 2.99792458 * 108m/s. An approximate value of c then is c = [3] * 108 m/s. (i) Show that the coloumb law in cgs units yields 1 esu of charge = 1 (dyne)1/2 cm. Obtain the dimensions of units of

This is a Long Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Explanation- as we know F= Qq/r2= 1dyne = 1esu of charge2/1cm2

1 esu of charge = M1/2L3/2T—1

  • Q=xC where x is dimensionless quantity

 So F= Q + q 2 = q 1 =1 dyne = 10-5N

Taking x= 1/3 Q = q 1 - q 2 9

After solving we get 1/4 q 1 + q 2

This is a Long Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Explanation- net electric field at plate γ due to two other plate

From plate 1 ,E1= - Q S 2 ε 0 t o t h e l e f t

From plate 2 ,E2= q S 2 ε 0 t o t h e r i g h t

Total electric field E= E1 + E2 = q - Q S 2 ε 0 to the left , if Q>q

electric field at o due to plate α = - Q S 2 ε 0 t o t h e l e f t

electric field at o due to plate β = q 1 S 2 ε 0 t o t h e r i g h t

electric field at o due to plate γ = q 2 S 2 ε 0 t o t h e l e f t

as the electric field at o is zero therefore

As there is no loss of charge on collision

Q+q= Q + q 2 S 2 ε 0 = q 1 S 2 ε 0

On solving these

 q1= (Q+q/2)= charge on plate β

q2= (q/2)= charge on plate γ

Explanation-

(i) when r

? E . d s   = 1 ε 0 ∫ ρ d V and we know that V = 4 3 π r 3

d V = 3 * 4 3 π r 3 d r = 4 π r 2 d r

  ? E . d s = 1 ε 0 4 π K ∫ r 3 d r

  E(4 ) π r 2 = 4 π K r 4 ε 0 4 = k r 2 4 ε 0 so it is clear that E is radially outwards.

  When r>R

? E . d s = 1 ε 0 ∫ ρ d V

              E= k R 4 4 ε 0 r 2 again field is outwards

(ii) When two protons are there then they must be on opposite sides or we can say along the end of diameter

So q= ∫ ρ d V = ∫ K r 4 π r 2 d r

 .q= 4 π K R 4 4 = 2 e , s o K = 2 e π R 4

If protons 1 and 2 are embedded at distance r from the center of the sphere then force will be

F=eE=- e K r 2 4 ε 0 but the force applied by proton F= e 2 4 π ε 0 ( 2 r ) 2

By adding these F= - e K r 2 4 ε 0 + e 2 4 π ε 0 ( 2 r ) 2

If F=0 then e K r 2 4 ε 0 = e 2 4 π ε 0 ( 2 r ) 2 &nbs

Explanation- let us consider that universe is of radius R

             And we know that hydrogen is made up one electron and proton so net charge is

             -(1+y)e+e = -ye

             Now the number of hydrogen atom in the universe = N * 4 3 π R 3

             So total charge is = -ye * N * 4 3 π R 3

Explanation-  (a)

(i) The electric field at the center of pentagon is zero because the distance from the center is same.

(ii) The field through one charge is Kq/r2

(iii) When one charge is positive and other is negative then net force towards negative charge. So net force is Kq/r2+ Kq/r2= 2Kq/r2

(b) It doesn't depend upon the number of sides increasing the net electric field is zero.
