When light of sufficiently high frequency is incident on a metallic surface, electrons are emitted from the metallic surface. This phenomenon is called photoelectric emission. Kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons depends on the wavelength of incident light and is independent of the intensity of light. Number of emitted photoelectrons depends on intensity. (hv-phi) is the maximum kinetic energy of emitted photoelectron (where phi is the work function of metallic surface). Reverse effect of photo emission produces X-ray. X-ray is not deflected by electric and magnetic fields. Wavelength of a continuous X-ray depends on potential difference across the tuve. Wavelength of charasteristic X-ray depends on the atomic number. Q. If potential difference across the tube is increased then

A fan operates at 200 volt (DC) consuming 1000W when running at full speed . It's internal wiring has resistance 1 Omega . When the fan runs at full speed , its speed becomes constant. This is because the torque due to magnetic field inside tha fan is balanced by the torque due to air resistance on the blades of the fan and torque due to friction between the fixed part and the shaft of the fan. The electrical power going into the fan is spent (i) in the internal resistance as heat, call it P_(1)(ii) in doing work against internal friction and air resistance producing heat, sound etc. call it P_(2) . When the coil of fan rotates, an emf is also induced in the coil. This opposes the external emf applied to snd the current into the fan. This emf is called back-emf,call it 'e' . Answer the following questions when the fan is running at full speed. The value of power P_(2) si
