A harmonic wave has been set up on a very long string which travels along the length of string. The wave has frequency of 50 Hz. Amplitude 1 cm and wavelength 0.5 m. for the above described wave. Statement (i): time taken by a point on the string to travel a distance of 8 m along the length of string is 0.32 s. Statement (ii): time taken by a point in the string to travel a distance of 8m, once the wave has reached at that point and sets it into motion is 0.32 s.

A dence collection of equal number of electrona and positive ions is called netural plasma. Certain solids contianing fixed positive ions surroundedby free electrons can be treated as neytral plasma. Let 'N' be the numbrer density of free electrons, each of mass ' m '. When the elctrons are subjected to an eletric field, they are displaced relatively away from the heavy positive ions. if the electric field becomes zero, the electrons begin to oscillate about the positive ions with a natural angular frequency ' omega_(P)' which is called the plasma frequency. to sustain the oscillations, a time varying electric field needs to be applied that has an angular frequrncy omega , where a part of the energy is absorbed and a part of it is reflected. As omega approaches omega_(p) all the free electrons are set to resonance together and all the energy is reflected. this is the explaination of high reflectivity of metals. (2) Estimate the wavelength at which plasma reflection will occur for a metal having the density of electrons N~~ 4 xx 10^(27)m^(-3) . Taking epsilon_(0) = 10^(11) and mass m~~ 10^(-30) , where these quantities are in proper SI units.

    When a particle is restricted to move along x-axis between x=0 and x=a , where alpha if of nenometer dimension, its energy can take only certain specific values. The allowed energies of the particle moving in such a restricted region, correspond to the formation of standing waves with nodes at its ends x=0 and x=a . The wavelength of this standing wave is related to the linear momentum p of the particle according to the de Broglie relation. The energy of the particle of mass m is related to its linear momentum as E=(p^2)/(2m) . Thus the energy of the particle can be denoted by a quantum number n taking values 1,2,3, ...( n=1 , called the ground state) corresponding to the number of loops in the standing wave.
