    1 / -0

    The ratio of wavelengths of proton and deuteron accelerated through the same potential difference will be

    Solutions
    λ=h2nVm
    Since both proton and deuteron have same charge and accelerated through the same potential difference.
    λpλ4=mamp=2mpmp=2
    Concepts:
    Main Concept:
    De Broglie Wavelength of A Particle 1. De Broglie first used Einstein's famous equation relating matter and energy:
    E=me2
    with
    E= energy
    m= mass
    c= speed of light
    2. Using Planck's theory which states every quantum of a wave has a discrete amount of energy given by Planck's equation:
    E=hv
    with
    E= energy
    h= Plank's constant (6.62607×1034Js)
    v= frequency
    3. since de Broglie believed particles and wave have the same traits, he hypothesized that the two energies would be equal.
    mc2=hv
    4. Because real particles do not travel at the speed of light, De Broglie submitted velocity ( v ) for the speed of light (c).
    mv2=hv
    5. Through the equation λ, de Broglie substituted v/λ for v and arfived at the final expression that relates wavelength and particle with speed.
    mv2=hvλ
    Hence
    λ=hvmv2=hmv
    A majority of Wave particle Duality problems are simple plug and chug via equation 5 with some variation of canceling out units.
    De Broglie' Wavelength of An Accelerated Charge
    de-Broglie wavelength : According to de-Broglie theory, the wavelength of de-Broglie wave is given by
    Where h= Plank's constant, m= Mass of the particle, v= Speed of the particle, E= Energy of the particle.
    The smallest wavelength whose measurement is possible is that of γ -rays.

    The wavelength of matter waves associated with the microscopic particles like electron, proton, neutron α particle etc. is of the order of 1010m. Examples on De Broglie Wave Equation
    What is the wavelength of De Broglie wave of electron with kinetic energy E?
    Step 1: Manipulate the K.E=12mv2 to get the velocity of the electron. v=2Em
    Step 2 : Find the momentum of electron using the velocity p=mv
    Step 3 : Fill in the De Broglie Wave Equation the momentum and other constants. λ=bp
    Step 4 : Calculate the wavelength.
    The question may contain a different source to extrapolate the velocity rather than kinetic energy, the rest of steps remain the same.
    The deBroglie Equation: Example Problems
    Example 1: What is the wavelength of an electron (Mass =9.11×1032kg ) traveling
    1) The first step in the solution is to calculate the kinetic energy of the electron:
    KE=(12)mv2
    x=((1/12))(9.11×10)31kg5.31×106m/s2
    x=1.28433×1017kgm2s2 (। kept some guard digits)
    When I use this value just below, I will use J (for Joules).
    2) Next, we will use the de Broglie equation to calculate the wavelength:
    λ=hp
    λ=h(2Em)
    Just to be sure about two things:
    (1) the unit on Planck's Constant is Joule-seconds, both are in the numerator and
    (2) there are three values following the radical in the denominator. All three of them are under the radical sign.
    The answer:
    x=1.37×1010m
    Td like to compare this wavelength to ultraviolet light, if I may. Let's use A=4000×104cm=4×107m
    Our electron's wavelength is almost 3000 times shorter than our ultraviolet example and its wavelength puts it in the X-ray region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
    This turned out to be very important because one could then take a beam of electrons and perform experiments with detectable results. You canit do that with the short wavelengths of heavier particles (see examples below).
    In 1926 , de Broglie predicted that matter had wave like properties. In 1927 , experiments were done that showed electrons behaved as a wave (by showing the property of diffraction and interference patterns). In 1937 , the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Clint Davisson and George Thomson (son of J.J. Thomson) for this work.

    Example 2 : What is the wavelength in meters of a proton traveling at 255,000,000m/s (which is 85% of the speed of light)? (Assume the mass of the proton to be 1.673×1027kg )
    1) Calculate the kinetic energy of the proton:
    KE=(12)mv2
    x=(1/2)(1.673×10)27kg2.55×109m/s2
    x=5.43934×1011J
    2) Use the de Broglie equation:
    λ=hp
    λ=h(2Em)
    x=1.55×1015m
    This wavelength is comparable to the radius of the nuclei of atoms, which range from 1×1015m (or 1 to 10 fm).
    Example 3 : Calculate the wavelength (in nanometers) of a H atom
    (Mass =1.674×1027kg ) moving at 698cm/s
    1) Convert cm/s to m/s
    698cm/s=6.98m/s
    2) Calculate the kinetic energy of the proton:
    KE=(12)mv2
    x=(1/12)(1.674×10)27kg6.98m/s2
    x=5.84226×1027J
    Hence, the correct option is (C)

A radio receiver is moved out from point B along a line perpendicular to the line connecting A and B ( line BC shown in figure). At what distances from B will there be destructive interference ?

    Solutions

    C=nλλ=Cn
    λ=3×1086×106λ=50m
    path difference at P=APBP
    path difference at P=(4λ)2+x2x..(1)
    For destructive interference at P
    path difference =(2n1)λ2
    From (1) and (2)
    (4λ)2+x2x=(2n1)λ2
    (4λ)2+x2=(2n1)λ2+x
    For first minima n=1
    x1=63λ4x1=787.5m
    For second minima n=2,
    x2=55λ12x2=229m
    For third minima n=3,
    x3=39λ20x3=97.5m

    or, f1f2=(L2C2L1C1)1/2=(2L×4CL×C)1/2=(8)1/2

    f1f2=22f2=f122 or f2=f22(f1=f)

    E=I2πσL1sr^
    V=abEds=ab(I2πσL)1sds
    =I2πσLln(b/a)
    I=(2πσL)Vln(b/a)

    A uniform sphere has a mass M and radius R. Find the pressure p inside the sphere, caused by gravitational compression, as a function of the distance r from its centre.  (γ is universal gravitational constant )

    Solutions

    We consider a spherical concentric shell of radius x and thickness dx.

    The mass of considered element is dm = (4π x2dx)ρ.

    Gravitational field at a point in the shell is

    g=4π3γρxdF=gdm=4π3γρxdm=4π3γρx(4πx2dx)ρ
    The pressure in the element is
    \mathrm{dP}=\frac{\mathrm{dF}}{A}=\frac{\left(\frac{4 \pi}{3} \gamma \rho x\right)\left(4 \pi x^{2} \mathrm{dx}\right) \rho}{4 \pi x^{2}}

    Pressure P=4πρ2γ3rRxdx=4πρ2γ3[x22]rR=4πρ2γ3[R22r22]
    But ρ=M43πR3
    By putting the value of ρ, we get,
    \mathbf{P}=\frac{3}{8}\left(1-\frac{r^{2}}{R^{2}}\right) \frac{\gamma M^{2}}{\pi R^{4}}
    Hence, the correct option is (A)
  • Question 8/10
    1 / -0

    A solid conducting sphere having a charge Q is surrounded by an uncharged concentric conducting hollow spherical shell. Let the potential difference between the surface of the solid sphere and that of the outer surface of the hollow shell be V. If the shell is now given a charge of –3Q, the new potential difference between the same two surfaces is

    Solutions
    The electric field in between the shell and sphere is Eπx2=Qenϵ0=Qϵ0( using Gauss's law )
    E=Q4πϵ0x2
    The potential difference between the shells is dV=VrVR=rREdx=rRQ4πϵ0x2dx=
    Q4πϵ0(1/r1/R)
    Thus, V=Q4πϵ0(1/r1/R)
    As the potential difference between solid sphere and hollow shell depends on the radii of two spheres and charge on the inner sphere, since the two values have not changed, potential difference does not change. Hence the potential difference remains V.
    Hence, the correct option is (A)

    A wooden cylinder of mass 20 g and area of cross-section 1 cm2, having a piece of lead of mass 60 g attached to its bottom floats in water. The cylinder is depressed and then released.

    Solutions
    Suppose that the loaded wooden block sinks upto a height h. Then,
    weight of water displaced by the block
    = weight of the block with lead
    If a is area of cross-section of the block and σ, the density of water, then
    ahσg=(M+m)g
    or h=M+maσ
    =20+601×1=80cm( density of water =1gcm3)
    Now for small displacement ' x ' from equilibrium
    σga(x+h)(M+m)g=(M+m)A
    σgax=(M+m)A
    A=σgaM+mx
    f=12πgh
    =12π98080
    =0.557s1
    Hence, the correct option is (A)
