Answer : (a) Maximum frequency of the X-ray produced by 30kV electron is \(\ 7.253 \times 10^{18}Hz \). (b) Minumum wavelength ( \(\lambda\) ) is \(0.41 \) angstroms. Explanation : Given, potential \(V=30kV\)                    \(\Rightarrow V=30 \times 10^3V\)                    \(\Rightarrow V=3 \times 10^4V\) So, energy of the X-ray is \(E=3 \times 10^4eV\) [ \(1eV=1.602\times 10^{-19}J\) ] We know a particle having frequency ( \(\nu\) ) contain energy \(E=h\nu\) ; where h is Planck's constant \(h=6.626\times 10^{-34}Js\) \[\Rightarrow \nu =\frac{E}{h}\] \[\Rightarrow \nu =\frac{1.602\times 10^{-19} \times 3 \times 10^{4}}{6.626\times 10^{-34}}\] \[\Rightarrow \nu =\frac{1.602 \times 3\times 10^{19} }{6.626}\] \[\Rightarrow \nu =0.7253 \times ...

Question Id: BIO000001 Question :  What is global warming? Write the cause of global warming? Answer :   Rising average air temperatures near Earth’s surface is known as global warming. It causes heating on earth surface and ocean. Due to rising of heat, ice of north and south pole and the Himalaya are melting. It causes rising height of sea level is increasing. It is very dangerous for the earth, the ecosystem of the earth is in danger. Fig-1: global warming Causes of global warming: Global Warming is caused by many things. The causes are divided into two groups, man-made or anthropogenic causes, and natural causes. Natural Causes: Natural causes are causes created by nature. One natural cause of global warming is a release of methane gas from arctic tundra and wetlands.  Another natural cause of global warming is that the earth goes through a cycle of climate change. Man-made Causes: the man made cause of global warming are CO2 from power plants, pollution emitte...

Question Id:  PH0000011 Question : A polythene piece rubbed with wool is found to have a negative charge of \(3×10^{–7} C\).  (a) Estimate the number of electrons transferred (from which to which?)  (b) Is there a transfer of mass from wool to polythene? Answer :   (a) From wool to polythene  (b) Yes, but amount of mass is very less \(1.7079 \times 10^{-18} Kg\) Explanation :   (a) As we know an atom has neutral charge because it has same number of  electron and proton. Charge of an atom or object depends on number of electron loss or gain. If any atom gain electron then it gets negatively charge (due to negative charge of electron) or if any atom loss electron then it gets positive charge (because number of electron is less than number f proton).    As polythene is fund to be negative charge that means electron is transferred from wool to polythene. From the quantisation of charge one can say that any amount of  discrete charge (Q) i...

Question Id:  PH0000009 Question:  Explain why two electrostatic field lines never cross each other at any point? Explanation: Electrostatic field lines are imaginary line which indicates the direction of electric field at any point and direction is along the tangent of the field lines. If two line corss at any point that means for the particular point the line can represent two different direction of field and which is not possible [For a particular point the direction of field is unique]. Thats why two field lines never cross each other at any point.  Fig-1: Direction of electric field lines N.B: Direction of field line from a positive charge paricle is away from the particle and direction of field line for negative charge particle is towards the particle.  -------------------------------------------------------------------- ⭐ Related question answer from Reading tab: What is the force between two small charged spheres having charges of \(2\times 10^{-7}C\) and \(...

Question Id:  PH0000008 Question: Explain the meaning of the statement ‘electric charge of a body is quantised'. Answer : Charge( may be positive or negative) of any body is integral multiple of electronic charge. This phenomena is quantisation of charge. If a body has \(Q\) amount of charge then it can be say from the quantisation of charge that \(Q=\pm ne\) where \(e\) is electronic charge [ \(e=-1.6 \times 10^{-19}C\) ] and \(n=1,2,3,4,......\) Fig-1: Quantisation of charge Explanation : A body get charged in two way By losing some electron By gaining some electrons An atom has equal number of proton and electron due to ths fact in general an atom is neutral but w hen a body lose some electron then it become positively charged in this case number of proton is more in the atom and when gain some electron it become negatively charged as in this case number of electron is more in the atom. As fraction number of electron can not be transferred (lose or gain) so it means a bod...

Question : Express \(Sine(sin)\), \(Cosine(cos)\) and \(tangent(tan)\) in terms of sides of triangle  Answer : For a right angle triangle  we can find sine or sin, cosine or cos, tangent or tan in terms of their side.  To know more accurately about sin, cos and tan we must have to know about (1)base, (2)height (perpendicular) and (3)hypotenuse. Figure-1 (right angle triangle)    In general we use base, hypotenuse and height(perpendicular) as shown in figure.  But this method is not   always right.    Let's know what is right (1) Definition of hypotenuse:       The side opposite to the right angle or \(90^{o}\) is called hypotenuse, it is the largest side of right angle triangle.  (2) Definition of perpendicular:   It depends on the angle which we are going to consider. If we consider angle C the  perpendicular  is AB.  If we consider angle A then  perpendicular  is  BC. (See be...

Project on atomic model and history:            Atom is the smallest constituent unit of ordinary matter that constituent of chemical elements viz electron, proton, neutron. Atoms are extremely small, typical sizes are around 100 picometers. In 1800 AD Jhon Dalton use the concept of atom to explain why chemical elements seemed to combine in ratios of small whole numbers. And Dalton give the atomic theory famous as "Dalton's atomic theory". Atom is mainly consist of two main part as nucleus and electron shell. The nucleus is made of proton and neutron. Proton is positively charged and neutron has no charge i.e neutral. And electron is negatively charge. diagram of electron and proton Discovery of Electron:      In 1897, J J Thomson  discovered that cathode rays are not electromagnetic waves but are made of particles taht are 1800 times lighter than hydrogen (the lightest atom). And that particle are electron and it is negatively charged. ...
