Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 1

The conductivity of P – type semiconductor is due to

Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 1

A P-type semiconductor is formed when a trivalent electron deficient impurities such as boron group elements are doped with intrinsic semiconductor. As the impurities are electron deficient, they take electrons from the valence band creating a number of holes. Due this reason conductivity in P-type semiconductor is mainly due to holes rather than electrons.

Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 2

Suppose K is open and the rod is moved with a speed of 12 cms-1 in the direction. The magnitude of the induced emf will be:

Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 2

The magnitude of the induced emf can be calculated using Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, which states that the magnitude of the induced emf is equal to the rate of change of magnetic flux through the loop.

The magnetic flux through the loop is given by:
Φ = BAcosθ
where B is the magnetic field strength, A is the area of the loop, and θ is the angle between the magnetic field and the normal to the loop.

In this case, the loop is a rectangle with one side being the length of the rod and the other side being the width of the loop, which is not given. However, we can assume that the width is much smaller than the length, so we can approximate the area of the loop as A = L*w, where L is the length of the rod and w is the width of the loop. Thus, we have:
Φ = BLw*cosθ

The angle θ is 0 degrees because the magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane of the loop, so we have:
Φ = BLw

The rate of change of magnetic flux is given by:
dΦ/dt = BL(dw/dt)
where dw/dt is the rate at which the width of the loop is changing, which is equal to the speed of the rod,

Therefore, the induced emf is given by:
emf = -dΦ/dt = -BL(dw/dt)
emf = -BVL

Calculation:

From the above-derived formula, the induced emf is given as
E = BVL

Given that
v = 12 cm/s.= 0.12 m/s
B = 0.50 T
L = 15 cm = 0.15 cm

E = -0.5 × 0.12 × 0.15 = -9 × 10-3 V.

The negative sign indicates that the direction of the induced emf is opposite to the direction of the motion of the rod
The magnitude of emf = 9 × 10
-3 V.

The correct answer is option (2)

Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 3

The magnetic force experienced by the rod when K is closed will be:

Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 3

Force (F) when K is closed is given by a formula B × L × I.
B = 0.5 T
L = 0.15 m
Since we have calculated induced emf V = 9 × 10-3 Volts
Induced current = V/R
= 9 × 10-3/0.18
= 50 × 10-3 A.
F = BIL
= 0.5 × 50 × 10-3 × 0.15
= 3.75 × 10-3 N.
The correct answer is option (4)

Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 4

The power required (by an external agent) to keep the rod moving at the same speed (= 12 cms-1) when K is closed will:

Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 4

Power dissipation is given by the formula E2/R
Induced emf is given as
E = BVL

Given that:
B = 0.5 T
V = 12 cm/s = 0.12 m/s
L = 15 cm = 0.15 m.
R = 180 mΩ = 0.18 Ω

Calculating E
E = 0.5 × 0.12 × 0.15

= 9 × 10-3 Volts
Power P = E2/R
= (9 × 10-3)2/0.18
= 4.5 × 10-4 W
The correct answer is option (3)

Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 5

The power dissipated as heat in the closed circuit is:

Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 5

Calculation:
Given that:
Velocity = 12 cm/sec = 0.12 m/sec
Length of Rod = 15 cm = 0.15 m
B = 0.5 T.
Resistance R = 180 mΩ = 0.18 Ω
To calculate the power dissipated as heat, we need to first calculate the current flowing.
Since the induced emf is calculated as
E = BVL
= 0.5 × 0.12 × 0.15
= 9 × 10-3
Volts.
The current I would be equal to
I = E/R
I = 9 × 10-3/(0.18)
= 50 × 10-3 A
The power dissipation is equal to
P = I2R
= (50 × 10-3 )2 × 0.18
P =
4.5 × 10-4 Watt
The correct answer is option (4)

Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 6

The induced emf produced in the moving rod if the magnetic field becomes parallel to the rails instead of being perpendicular will be:

Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 6

The correct answer is option "4"

Concept:
According to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, a changing magnetic field induces an electric field and thus an EMF in a conductor.

The induced EMF (ε) in a conductor is given by the formula:
ε = - dΦ/dt
where dΦ/dt is the rate of change of magnetic flux through a surface bounded by the conductor. The negative sign indicates that the induced EMF is always in a direction to oppose the change in magnetic flux that produced it, according to Lenz's law.

The magnetic flux (Φ) through a surface is given by the formula:
Φ = B * A * cos(theta)
where
B is the magnetic field strength,
A is the area of the surface, and
theta is the angle between the magnetic field and the surface normal.

If the surface is a loop of wire with a length L moving at a velocity v perpendicular to the magnetic field B, then the area of the loop swept out by the motion is A = L * v, and the angle between the magnetic field and the surface normal is theta = 0.

Therefore, the magnetic flux through the loop is given by:
Φ = B * L * v * cos(0) = B * L * v

The rate of change of magnetic flux through the loop is then:
dΦ/dt = B * L * dv/dt = B * L * a
where a is the acceleration of the loop.

Substituting this expression for dΦ/dt into the equation for the induced EMF, we get:
ε = - B * L * a

So, if the magnetic field strength B, the length of the conductor L, and the velocity of the conductor v are given, the induced EMF can be calculated using the above formula, provided that the acceleration of the conductor is also known.

Note that this formula only applies when the conductor is moving perpendicular to the magnetic field. If the conductor is moving at an angle to the magnetic field, then the formula for the magnetic flux through the surface must take into account the component of the area perpendicular to the magnetic field, and the angle between the magnetic field and the surface normal.

Calculation:

The induced EMF produced in a moving rod is given by the formula:

EMF = B L v sin(theta)
where B is the magnetic field strength, L is the length of the rod, v is the velocity of the rod, and theta is the angle between the direction of motion of the rod and the magnetic field.

  • If the magnetic field becomes parallel to the rails, then the angle between the direction of motion of the rod and the magnetic field is zero, i.e. theta = 0. In this case, the sine of theta becomes zero, and therefore the induced EMF becomes zero.
  • So, if the magnetic field becomes parallel to the rails instead of being perpendicular, the induced EMF produced in the moving rod will be zero.
Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 7
The Bohr’s radius of hydrogen atom is a0 . The electron in the nth orbit of hydrogen atom has a radius:
Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 7

Concept:

The electron in the nth orbit is given as,

Bohr radius is symbolized by a

Where, ϵ0 = 8.854 × 10-12 Fm is the permittivity in air.

m = 9.109 × 10-31 kg is the mass of the electron

e = 1.6 × 10-19 C is the charge of the electron

Z = atomic number

Explanation:

The electron in the nth orbit is given as,

For Hydrogen as, Z = 1

rn = a0 n2

Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 8
If the speed of the electron orbiting around the nucleus in the hydrogen atom is doubled, then the wavelength of the electron will become:
Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 8

CONCEPT:

Hydrogenic atoms:

  • Hydrogenic atoms are atoms consisting of a nucleus with positive charge +Ze and a single electron, where Z is the proton number.
  • Examples are a hydrogen atom, singly ionized helium, doubly ionized lithium, and so forth.

De Broglie's Explanation of Bohr's Second Postulate of Quantisation:

  • Bohr's second postulate states that the electron revolves around the nucleus only in those orbits for which the angular momentum is some integral multiple of h/2π where h is the Planck’s constant (6.6×10-34 J-sec).
  • Thus the angular momentum (L) of the orbiting electron is quantized.
  • So the angular momentum of the electron orbiting in the nth orbit around the nucleus is given as,

  • Louis de Broglie argued that the electron in its circular orbit, as proposed by Bohr, must be seen as a particle wave.
  • For an electron moving in the nth circular orbit of radius rn, the total distance is the circumference of the orbit.
  • If the wavelength of the electron orbiting in the nth circular orbit is λ, then,

⇒ 2πrn = nλ

  • We know that the De Broglie wavelength of the electron moving with speed vn in the nth orbit is given as,

CALCULATION:

Given v1 = v and v2 = 2v

Where v1 = initial speed of the electron and v2 = final speed of the electron

  • We know that the De Broglie wavelength of the electron moving with speed vn in the nth orbit is given as,

-----(1)

  • When the speed of the electron is v1, the De Broglie wavelength of the electron is given as,

-----(2)

  • When the speed of the electron is v2, the De Broglie wavelength of the electron is given as,

-----(3)

By equation 2 and equation 3,

  • Hence, option 2 is correct.

Additional Information

Limitations of the Bohr model:

  1. The Bohr model is applicable to hydrogenic atoms. It cannot be extended even to mere two-electron atoms such as helium. The analysis of atoms with more than one electron was attempted on the lines of Bohr’s model for hydrogenic atoms but did not meet with any success. The formulation of the Bohr model involves electrical force between the positively charged nucleus and electron. It does not include the electrical forces between electrons which necessarily appear in multi-electron atoms.
  2. Bohr’s model correctly predicts the frequencies of the light emitted by hydrogenic atoms, the model is unable to explain the relative intensities of the frequencies in the spectrum.
Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 9
An electron and a photon have same de-Broglie wavelength of 10-10 m. Which of the two has greater kinetic energy?
Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 9

Concept:

The kinetic energy is defined as the energy stored in an object because of its motion.

When subatomic particles (electron, proton, etc.) behave like a wave then the wavelength is called de Broglie wavelength

  • p = mv
  • λ = de Broglie wavelength, h = Planck constant, p = momentum of the subatomic particles, m = mass of subatomic particles, v = velocity of subatomic particles
  • Mass of electron = 9.1093837015 × 10−31 kg
  • Speed of light, c = 3 × 108 m/s

Kinetic energy of photon,

  • Speed of light, c = 3 × 108 m/s

Calculation:

Given, de-Broglie wavelength, λ = 10-10 m

Let the kinetic energy of electron is E,

Also,

---- (1)

For the case of a photon,

---- (2)

Dividing equation (2) by (1), we get

Substituting value,

Clearly, E' is greater than E, so the photon has greater kinetic energy than electron

Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 10
The capacitance of a p-n junction diode :
Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 10

A diode can have two different capacitances:

Diffusion Capacitance:

It is dominant when the diode is forward and is the result of storage charges when forward biased.

The diffusion capacitance is given by the formula:

---(1)

IDQ = Quiescent current of the diode.

τ = Minority carrier lifetime

VT = Thermal voltage

Since the diode current Equation is given as:

---(2)

From Equation (1) and (2), we conclude that the diffusion capacitance increases exponentially with forward bias voltage (Vf).

Junction Capacitance:

It is dominant when the diode is reverse biased and is the result of the charge stored in the Depletion layer.

The junction capacitance is given by the formula:

W = depletion region width

Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 11
In what direction do electrons move at a p-n junction?
Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 11
  • A p-n junction is formed when a p-type and an n-type semiconductor is joined together.
  • It is the basic building block of many devices.
  • At the junction the electrons diffuse from n side to p side because of the process of diffusion which states that an entity will flow from an area of higher concentration to that of a lower one.
  • Since electrons are the majority charge carriers on the n-side, therefore electrons move from high density area of n-side to low density area of p-side.
Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 12

In the case of metals the valence and conduction bands have

Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 12

The materials can be classified by the energy gap between their valence band and the conduction band. The valence band is the band consisting of the valence electron, and the conduction band remains empty. Conduction takes place when an electron jumps from valence band to conduction band and the gap between these two bands is forbidden energy gap. Wider the gap between the valence and conduction bands, higher the energy it requires for shifting an electron from valence band to the conduction band.In the case of conductors, this energy gap is absent or in other words conduction band, and valence band overlaps each other. Thus, electron requires minimum energy to jump from valence band. The typical examples of conductors are Silver, Copper, and Aluminium.In insulators, this gap is vast. Therefore, it requires a significant amount of energy to shift an electron from valence to conduction band. Thus, insulators are poor conductors of electricity. Mica and Ceramic are the well-known examples of insulation material. Semiconductors, on the other hand, have an energy gap which is in between that of conductors and insulators. This gap is typically more or less 1 eV, and thus, one electron requires energy more than conductors but less than insulators for shifting valence band to conduction band.

Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 13

A p- type semiconductor can be obtained by adding

Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 13

In P-type doping, boron or gallium is the dopant. Boron and gallium each have only three outer electrons. When mixed into the silicon lattice, they form "holes" in the lattice where a silicon electron has nothing to bond to. The absence of an electron creates the effect of a positive charge, hence the name P-type.Holes can conduct current. A hole happily accepts an electron from a neighbor, moving the hole over a space. P-type silicon is a good conductor.

Good examples of semiconductor materials are germanium, selenium, and silicon.Radium is a chemical element with symbol Ra and atomic number 88. It is the sixth element in group 2 of the periodic table, also known as the alkaline earth metals.

Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 15

In a pure, or intrinsic, semiconductor, valence band holes and conduction-band electrons are always present

Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 15

An intrinsic semiconductor, also called an undoped semiconductor or i-type semiconductor, is a pure semiconductor without any significant dopant species present. The number of charge carriers is therefore determined by the properties of the material itself instead of the amount of impurities. In intrinsic semiconductors the number of excited electrons and the number of holes are equal: n = p.

Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 17

The number of valence electrons in a good conductor is generally

Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 17

The electron theory states that all matter is composed of atoms and the atoms are composed of smaller particles called protons, electrons, and neutrons. The electrons orbit the nucleus which contains the protons and neutrons. It is the valence electrons that we are most concerned with in electricity. These are the electrons which are easiest to break loose from their parent atom. Normally, conductors have three or less valence electrons; insulators have five or more valence electrons; and semiconductors usually have four valence electrons.

Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 18

When the conductivity of a semiconductor is only due to breaking of the covalent bonds, the semiconductor is called

Detailed Solution for Physics: CUET Mock Test - 10 - Question 18

A pure semiconductor is called intrinsic semiconductor, e.g., silicon, germanium. The presence of the mobile charge carriers is the intrinsic property of the material. At room temperature, some covalent bonds are broken and electrons are made free. The absence of electron in the covalent bond form hole.The electrical conduction is by means of mobile electrons and holes. Hole act as positive charge, because it can attract an electron. If some other bond is broken and the electron thus freed fills this hole(vacancy), it seems as though the hole is moving.Actually an electron is travelling in opposite direction. In a pure(intrinsic) semiconductor, the number of holes is equal to the number of free electrons.

For paramagnetic materials orbital and spin magnetic moments of the electrons are of the order of bohr magneton.
Paramagnetic materials have some unpaired electrons due to these unpaired electrons the net magnetic moment of all electrons in an atom is not added up to zero. Hence atomic dipole exists in this case. On applying external magnetic field the atomic dipole aligns in the direction of the applied external magnetic field. In this way, paramagnetic materials are feebly magnetized in the direction of the magnetizing field.
