Q.No. 19 to 24 are long answers type question. Each question of this category carries 5 marks. Answer any three (3) question. (3 x 5 = 15)

Question 19.
State and Prove Gauss’s Theorem in electrostatics.
Statement of Gauss’s Theorem : The net- outward normal electric flux through any closed surface of any shape is equal to l/ε0 times the total charge contained within that surface i.e.

where indicates the surface integral over the whole

of the closed surface. Σq is the algebraic sum of all the charges (i.e. net charge in Coulombs) enclosed by surface S.

Proof of Gauss’s Theorem :
Let a point charge + q coulomb be placed at O within the closed surface. Let E be the electric field strength at P. Let OP=r and the permitivity of free space or vacuum be e0.

Consider a small area’ $$\overrightarrow{d S}$$ of the surface surrounding the point P. Then the electric flux through $$\overrightarrow{d S}$$ is given by

subtended by area dS at point O. Here 0 is the angle between $$\overrightarrow{d S}$$ and $$\overrightarrow{E}$$

Hence electric flux through whole of the closed surface.
$$\phi=\oint_{S} \overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{dS}}=\frac{q}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} \times \oint d \Omega$$

But $$\oint d \Omega$$ is the solid angle due to the entire closed surface S at an internal point O = 4π
∴ $$\quad \phi=\frac{q}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} \cdot 4 \pi=\frac{1}{\varepsilon_{0}} q$$

It there are several charges, + q1, + q2, + q3 + q1 – q2 – q3 ………… inside the closed surface, each will contribute to the total electric flux. For positive charges the flux will be outward and hence positive; for negative charges the flux will be inward and negative. Therefore, the total electric flux in such a case

where Zq is the algebraic sum of the charges within the closed surface.

Hence total electric flux through any closed surface is equal to l/e0 times the total charge (in Coulomb) enclosed within the surface which is Gauss’s law.

Question 20.
Find an expression for the capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor when a dielectric slab of dielectric constant K and thickness $$t=\frac{d}{2}$$ but of same area on the plates is inserted between the capacitor plate. (d = separation between the plates).
Consider a paralled plate capacitor, area of each plate being A, the separation between the plates being d. Let a dielectric slab of dielectric constant K and thickness t < d be placed between the plates. The thickness of air between the plates is (d – t). If charges on plates are + Q and -Q, then surface charge density

The electric field between the plates in air,
$$\mathrm{E}_{1}=\frac{\sigma}{\varepsilon_{0}}=\frac{Q}{\varepsilon_{0} \mathrm{A}}$$

The electric field between the plates in slab,
$$\mathrm{E}_{2}=\frac{\sigma}{\mathrm{K} \varepsilon_{0}}=\frac{Q}{\mathrm{K} \varepsilon_{0} \mathrm{A}}$$

∴ The potential difference between the plates VAB = work done in carrying unit positive charge from one plate to another
= Σex (as field between the plates is not constant).

∴ Capacitance of capacitor.

Question 21.
State Biot-Savart law, giving the mathematical expression for it.
Use this law to derive the expression for the magnetic field due to a circular coil carrying current at a point along it axis.
How does a circular loop carrying current behave as a magnet?
(i) Magnetic field at the axis of a circular loop : Consider a circular loop of radius R carrying current I, with its plane perpendicular to the plane of paper. Let P be a point of observation on the axis of this circular loop at a distance x from its centre O. Consider a small element of length dl of the coil at point A. The magnitude of the magnetic induction $$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{dB}}$$ at point P due to this element is given by

The direction of $$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{dB}}$$ is perpendicular to the plane containing $$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{dl}}$$ and $$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{r}}$$ is given by right hand screw rule. As the angle between $$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{dl}}$$ and $$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{r}}$$ is 90°, the magnitude of the magnetic induction $$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{dB}}$$ is given by,
$$\overrightarrow{\theta B}=\frac{\mu_{0} t}{4 \pi} \frac{d \sin 9 \sigma^{0}}{r^{2}}=\frac{\mu_{0} d t^{2}}{4 \pi^{2}}$$ …….(ii)

If we consider the magnetic induction produced by the whole of the circular coil, then by symmetry the components of magnetic induction perpendicular, to the axis will be cancelled out, while those parallel to the axis will be added up. Thus the resultant magnetic induction $$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}$$ at axial point P is along the axis and may be evaluated as follows :

The component of $$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{dB}}$$ along the axis,

Therefore the magnitude of resultant magnetic induction at axial point P due to the whole circular coil is given by

Question 22.
Derive an expression for the force per unit length between two long straight parallel current carrying conductors. Hence define S.I. unit of current (ampere).
Suppose two long thin straight conductors (or wires) PQ and RS are placed parallel to each other in vacuum (or air) carrying currents I1 and I2 respectively. It has been observed experimentally that when the current in the wire are in the same direction, they experience an attractive force (fig. a) and when they carry currents in opposite directions, they experience a repulsive force (fig. b). Let the conductors PQ and RS carry currents I1 and I2 in same direction and placed at separation r. (fig). Consider a current-element ‘ab’ of length AL of wire RS. The magnetic field produced by current-carrying conductor PQ at the location of other wire RS.

$$\mathrm{B}_{1}=\frac{\mu_{0} \mathrm{l}_{1}}{2 \pi r}$$ ……………………… (i)

According to Maxwell’s right hand rule or right hand palm rule no. I, the direction of B l will be perpendicular to the plane of paper and directed downward. Due to this magnetic field, each element of other wire experiences a force. The direction of current element is perpendicular to the magnetic field; therefore the magnetic force on element ab of length ΔL.
$$\Delta F=\mathrm{B}_{x} \mathrm{I}_{2} \Delta \mathrm{L} \sin 90^{\circ}=\frac{\mu_{0} \mathrm{I}_{1}}{2 \pi r} \mathrm{I}_{2} \Delta \mathrm{L}$$

∴ The total force on conductor of length L will be
$$\mathrm{F}=\frac{\mu_{0} \mathrm{I}_{1} \mathrm{I}_{2}}{2 \pi r} \Sigma \Delta \mathrm{L}=\frac{\mu_{0} \mathrm{I}_{1} \mathrm{I}_{2}}{2 \pi r} \mathrm{L}$$

∴ Force acting on per unit length of conductor
$$f=\frac{F}{L}=\frac{\mu_{0} I_{1} I_{2}}{2 \pi r} N / m$$

According to Flemming’s left hand rule, the direction of magnetic force will be towards PQ i.e., the force will be attractive.

On the other hand if the currents I1 and I2 in wires are in opposite directions, the force will be repulsive. The magnitude of force in each case remains the same.

Definition of S.I. unit of Current (ampere):
In S.I. system of fundamental unit of current ‘ampere’ has been define assuming the force between the two currents carrying wires as standard.

The force between two parallel currents carrying conductors of separation r is

Thus I ampere is the current which when flowing in each of parallel conductors placed at separation I m in vacuum exert a force of 2 x 10-7 on 1 m length of either wire.

Question 23.
With the help of a ray diagram, show the formation of image of a point object by refraction of light at a spherical surface separating two media of refractive indices n1 and n2 (n2 > n1), respectively. Using this diagram, derive the relation $$\frac{n_{2}}{v}-\frac{n_{1}}{u}=\frac{n_{1}-n_{1}}{R}$$

Write the sign conventions used. What happens to the focal length of convex lens when it is immersed in water?
Formula for Refraction at Spherical Surface Concave Spherical Surface :
Let SPS’ be a spherical refracting surface, which separates media ‘1’ and ‘2’. Medium ‘ 1’ is rarer and medium ‘2’ is denser. The refractive indices of media ‘1’ and ‘2’ are n1 and n2 respectively (n1 < n2). Let P be the pole and C the centre of curvature and PC the principal axis of spherical refracting surface.

O is a point-object on the principal axis. An incident ray OA, after refraction at A on the spherical surface bends towards the normal OAN and moves along AB. Another incident ray OP falls on the surface normally and hence passes undeviated after refraction. These two rays, when produced backward meet at point I on principal axis. Thus I is the virtual image of O.

Let angle of incidence of ray OA be / and angle of refraction be r i.e.

If point A is very near to P, then angles i, r, a, P, Y will be very small, therefore sin i = i and sin r = r
From equation (iii)
$$\frac{i}{r}=\frac{n_{2}}{n_{1}}$$
Substituting values of i and r from (i) and (ii) we get
$$\frac{\gamma-\alpha}{\gamma-\beta}=\frac{n_{2}}{n_{1}} \text { or } n_{1}(\gamma-\alpha)=n_{2}(\gamma-\beta) \quad \ldots \text { (iv) }$$

The length of perpendicular AM dropped from A on the principal axis is h, i.e. AM = h. As angles a, P and y are very small, therefore
tana = α, tan β = β, tan γ = γ
Substituting these values in equation (iv)
n1 (tanY-tanoO = /j2(tanY-tanP) ……………. (v)
As point A is very close to P, point M is coincident with F

Let u, v and R be the distance of object O, image I and centre of curvature C from pole P. By sign convention PO, PI and PC are negative i.e. u = – PO, v = – PI and R = – PC

Substituting these values in (vii) we get

Question 24.
Derive Einstein’s photoelectric equation ^
$$\frac{1}{2}$$
$$m v^{2}=h v-h v_{0}$$
Einstein’s Explanation of Photoelectric Effect: Einstein’s Photoelectric Equation :

Einstein explained photoelectric effect on the basis of quantum theory.

The main points are :

1. Light is propagated in the form of bundles of energy. Each bundle of erergy is called a quantum or photon and has energy hv, where h = Plank’s constant and v = frequency of light.

2. The photoelectric effect is due to collision of a photon of incident metal light and a bound electron of the metallic cathode.

3. When a photon of incident light falls on the metallic surface, it is completely absorbed. Before being absorbed it penetrates through a distance of nearly 10-8 m (or 100 A). The absorbed photon transfers its whole energy to a single electron. The energy of photon goes in two parts : a part of energy is used in releasing the electron from the metal surface (i.e., in overcoming work function) and the remaining part appears in the form of kinetic energy of the same electron.

If v be the frequency of incident light, the energy of photon = hv. If W be the work function of metal and Ek the maximum kinetic energy of photoelectron, then according to Einstein’s explanation.

hv = W + EK
or, EK = hv – W …………………….(i)

This is called Einstein’s photoelectric equation.

If v0 be the threshold frequency, then if frequency of incident light is less then v0, no electron will be emitted and if the frequency of incident light be v0, then Ek = 0; so from equation (i)
0 = hv0 – W or W = hv0

If λ0 be the threshold wavelength, then $$v_{0}=\frac{c}{\lambda_{0}}$$, where c is the speed of light in vacuum.

∴ Work function
$$\mathrm{W}=h v_{0}=\frac{h c}{\lambda_{0}}$$ ………………… (ii) Substituting this value in equation (i), we get
Ek = hv – hv0 ……………….(iii)
This is another form of Einstein’s photoelectric equation.
