BITSAT Physics Test - 8 - Question 21

The passenger tends to lean forward when a running metro stops suddenly. It is because of:

Detailed Solution for BITSAT Physics Test - 8 - Question 21

The passenger tends to lean forward when a running metro stops suddenly. It is because of Inertia of Motion.

We know that,
Newton’s First Law: A body continues to be in its state of rest or of uniform motion along a straight line unless it is acted upon by some external force to change the state. If no net force acts on a body, then the velocity of the body cannot change i.e., the body cannot accelerate. Newton’s first law defines inertia and is rightly called the law of inertia.

The inertia of motion is the inability of a body to change by itself its state of uniform motion i.e., a body in uniform motion can neither accelerate nor retard on its own.

When the running metro stops suddenly, the passenger tends to lean forward because the lower part of his body comes to rest with the ground but the upper part tends to continue its motion due to inertia of motion.

BITSAT Physics Test - 8 - Question 26

If p-n junction is unbiased then:

Detailed Solution for BITSAT Physics Test - 8 - Question 26

If p-n junction is unbiased then the current is zero because the drifting of charge is the same from both sides. As the concentration of electrons is less in the P-side compared to the n - side the electrons will diffusion n to the P-side of the junction.
In the case of holes, it occurs in vice versa for holes, this diffusion of electrons from n to P constitutes diffusion current from P to n. As a consequence of this diffusion there creates a region that is depleted from charges known as the depletion region.
The barrier potential set up across the junction produces a current from n to P which is known as drift current which is in opposite direction to the diffusion current.

When a coil moves towards a stationary magnet, the induced emf does not depend on:

Detailed Solution for BITSAT Physics Test - 8 - Question 27

When a magnet is brought near a conducting loop along its axis, the distance between the loop and the magnet will reduce so the intensity of the magnetic field associated with the loop also increases.
Because the magnetic field associated with the loop increases so the magnetic flux linked with the loop also increases.
So in this case the magnetic flux is changing, hence an electric current will generate.  
From the above equation, it is cleared that the induced emf depends upon the magnetic field and number of turns and it is independent of the resistance of the coil.
