Energy change associated per mole of atoms with an atomic transition giving rise to radiations of  What is the value of x?
    Correct answer is '4'. Can you explain this answer?

    Naina Sharma answered
    Energy = n.hv
    where,
    n = 1 mole or 6.023 × 1023 atoms
    h = 6.626×10-34 J.sec
    v (frequancy) = 1 Hz
    ⇒ E = 6.023 ×1023 × 6.626×10-34 × 1 = 3.91 × 10-10
    so approximately value of x = 4.

    Direction (Q. Nos. 9-11) This section contains 3 multiple choice questions. Each question has four choices (a), (b), (c) and (d), out of which ONE or  MORE THANT ONE  is correct.
    Q. Select the correct statement(s).
    • a)
      Electromagnetic radiation is a form of energy consisting of oscillating electric and magnetic fields
    • b)
      Visible light is a form of electromagnetic radiation
    • c)
      The electromagnetic spectrum of sunlight received at the Earth's surface differs from that emitted by the Sun
    • d)
      Ultraviolet radiation is absorbed in the stratosphere by ozone and oxygen
    Correct answer is option 'A,B,C,D'. Can you explain this answer?

    Geetika Shah answered
    Option A: Oscillations travel through space at a velocity of light, thus electromagnetic radiation is in the form of energy E = hv.
    Option B: Radiowaves, microwaves, X-rays, and visible light are part of the Electromagnetic radiation spectrum.
    Option C: Some of the radiations are absorbed in the atmosphere, hence the spectrum differs.
    Option D: Ozone layer absorbs ultraviolet radiation.
    Hence, options A, B, C, and D are correct.

    Direction (Q. Nos. 1-8) This section contains 8 multiple choice questions. Each question has four choices (a), (b), (c) and (d), out of which ONLY ONE option is correct.
     
    Q. FM radio broadcasts at 900 kHz. What wavelength does this corresponds to?
    • a)
      333 m
    • b)
      3.03 x 10-3m
    • c)
      330 m
    • d)
      3300 m
    Correct answer is 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

    Understanding FM Radio Frequency and Wavelength
    FM radio broadcasts at a frequency of 900 kHz. To find the corresponding wavelength, we can use the formula that relates frequency and wavelength in a vacuum:
    Formula for Wavelength
    Wavelength (λ) = Speed of Light (c) / Frequency (f)
    Where:
    - Speed of Light (c) ≈ 3 x 10^8 meters per second
    - Frequency (f) = 900 kHz = 900,000 Hz (since 1 kHz = 1,000 Hz)
    Calculating the Wavelength
    Using the values:
    - λ = (3 x 10^8 m/s) / (900,000 Hz)
    - λ = (3 x 10^8) / (9 x 10^5)
    - λ = 333.33 meters
    Thus, the wavelength that corresponds to a frequency of 900 kHz is approximately 333 meters.
    Conclusion
    So, the correct answer to the question is:
    - Option (a): 333 m
    This calculation illustrates how the frequency of radio waves is inversely related to their wavelength; as frequency increases, wavelength decreases.

    Select the incorrect statement about cathode rays.
    • a)
      They travel from cathode to anode
    • b)
      They travel in a straight line in the absence of an external electrical or magnetic field
    • c)
      Their nature is independent of the materials of cathode
    • d)
      Their nature is dependent on the nature of the gas present
    Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

    Amrita Sarkar answered
    (a) Cathode rays travel from cathode (source) to anode. True
    (b) In the absence of these fields, they are not deflected but in the presence of electrical field, they are deflected indicating that they are charged. Thus, True
    (c) Their nature is independent of the material of cathode. True
    (d) Their nature is independent of the nature of the gas.
    Thus, given statement is false.

    Which of the following conclusions could not be derived from Rutherford’s α-particle scattering experiment?
    • a)
      Electrons and nucleus are held together by electrostatic forces of attraction
    • b)
      The radius of the atom is larger than that of the nucleus
    • c)
      Most of the space in the atom is empty
    • d)
      Electrons move in a circular path of fixed energy. Circular paths are called orbits
    Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

    (a) Electrons (-) and nucleus (+) are held togeather by electrostatic forces of attractions. Thus. true.
    (b) Radius of the atom (= 10-10m) > radiue of the nucleus (10-15m). Thus true
    (c) Most of the space is empty as given by radius of the nucleus and atom. Thus, true.
    (d) As electron moves in a circular paith, it emits energy and ultimately false into nucleus. Thus, false.

    Q. A standing wave in a string 42 cm long has a total of six nodes (including those at the ends). Wavelength of the standing wave is
    • a)
      7.0 cm
    • b)
      16.8 cm
    • c)
      10.5 cm
    • d)
      5.25 cm
    Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

    Ayush Joshi answered
    If there are 6 nodes, then there are 5 segments between nodes, and the wavelength of the underlying wave is 2 of those (because they look similar when they’re moving but if you freeze-frame, every second one is the opposite direction), so I make it 2*42/5 = 16.8 cm.
