(a) what is the rate at which energy being delivered to a light bulb higher : just after it is turned on , the glow of the filament is increasing , or after it has been on for a few seconds and the glow is steady ? (b) IF a piece of wire is used to connect points b and c in Fig. 7.9, does the brightness of bulb R_(1) increase , decrease or stay constant ? What happens to the brightness of bulb R_(2) ? (I_(1) = I_(2) = I) (c) Compare the brightness of four identical light bulbs in Fig. 7.10 . What happens if the bulb A fails so that it cannot conduct ? What if C fails ? What if D fails? (d) If electric power is transmitted over long distances, the resistance of the wires becomes significant. Why ? Which mode of transmission would result in less energy losss: high current and low voltage or low current and high voltage ? Discuss. (e) In Fig. 7.11 , describe wha happens to the light bulb after the switch is closed . Assume the capacitor has a large capacitance and is initially uncharged.

Following experiment was performed by J.J. Thomson in order to measure ratio of charge e and mass m of electron. Electrons emitted from a hot filament are accelerated by a potential difference V. As the electrons pass through deflecting plates, they encounter both electric and magnetic fields. the entire region in which electrons leave the plates they enters a field free region that extends to fluorescent screen. The entire region in which electrons travel is evacuated. Firstly, electric and magnetic fields were made zero and position of undeflected electron beam on the screen was noted. The electric field was turned on and resulting deflection was noted. Deflection is given by d_(1) = (eEL^(2))/(2mV^(2)) where L = length of deflecting plate and v = speed of electron. In second part of experiment, magnetic field was adjusted so as to exactly cancel the electric force leaving the electron beam undeflected. This gives eE = evB . Using expression for d_(1) we can find out (e)/(m) = (2d_(1)E)/(B^(2)L^(2)) A beam of electron with velocity 3 xx 10^(7) m s^(-1) is deflected 2 mm while passing through 10 cm in an electric field of 1800 V//m perpendicular to its path. e//m for electron is

A well insulated container has a mixture of ice and water, at 0^(@)C . The mixture is supplied heat at a constant rate of 420 watt by switching on an electric heater at time t = 0. The temperature of the mixture was recorded at time t = 150s, 273s and 378s and the readings were 0^(@)C , 10^(@)C and 20^(@)C respectively. Calculate the mass of water and ice in the mixture. Specific heat of water = 4.2 J g^(-1) .^(@)C^(-1) , Specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336 J g^(-1) . Assume that the mixture is stirred slowly to maintain a uniform temperature of its content.
