Solution
In a bridge rectifier, the number of diodes required is
If \(\overrightarrow{E}\) and \(\overrightarrow{B}\) represent electric and magnetic field vectors of the electromagnetic waves, then the direction of propagation of the waves will be along

Solution
A circular loop of area 0.02 m2 carrying a current of 10A, is held with its plane perpendicular to a magnetic field induction 0.2 T. The torque acting on the loop is
-
Solution
Torque on loop τ = nIAB cos θ; Here θ= 90º
∴ τ = 0.

Solution
DIRECTIONS: Each question contains STATEMENT-1 and STATEMENT-2. Choose the correct answer(ONLY ONE option is correct ) from the following
Statement 1 :Energy cannot be divided by volume.
Statement 2 :Because dimensions for energy and volume are different
-
Solution
(a) Statement -1is false, Statement-2 is true
In a thermocouple,the temperature of the cold junction and the neutral temperature are –40°C and 275° Crespectively. If the cold junction temperature is increased by60°C, the neutral temperature and temperature of in version respectively become
-
Solution
When the temperature of cold junction is increased,the neutral temperature remains constant for a given thermocouple and it is independent of the temperature of the cold junction.
∴ θn= 275°C, θi– θn= θn– θc
∴ θi= 2θn– θc= 530°C.
If an electron and positron annihilate, then the energy released is
-
Solution
Which of the following formula is wrong?
-
Solution
The difference of Cp and Cv is equal to R, not 2R
A gamma ray photon creates an electron-positron pair. If the rest mass energy of an electron is 0.5 MeV and the total kinetic energy of the electron-positron pair is 0.78 MeV,then the energy of the gamma ray photon must be
-
Solution
Energy of γ-ray photon = Rest mass energy + K.E.= 2 (0.5) + 0.78 = 1.78 MeV
A cylinder is filled with non-viscous liquid of density d to a height h0 and a hole is made at a height h1from the bottom of the cylinder. The velocity of the liquid is suing out of the hole is
-
Solution
Velocity of liquid flowing out of hole =\(\sqrt{2gh}\)
Here h = (h0– h1)
