At the time of solar eclipse,the light from the entire sun is cut off,although its diameter is several hundred times larger than that of the moon.Why?

Which one of the following can bind several hundred times more strongly to the hemoglobin than oxygen?

To the naked eye,the sun appears only a small bright disc,although its diameter is very large (~10^9m) . Why?

Kunal is curious to find out the relationship between the diameter o the moon and the earth. From the available data, it is know that the volume of earth is 64 times the volume of the moon. He concluded that the diameter of the moon is 1/4 of the diameter of the earth. Show did he arrive at the conclusions?

It is a well known fact that during a total solar eclipse the disc of the moon almost covers the disc of the sun. Find the approx. diameter of moon from the following data.

Classically, an electron can be in any orbit around the nucleus of an atom. Then what determines the typical atomic size? Why is an atom not, say, thousand times bigger than its typical size? The question had greatly puzzled Bohr before he arrived at his famous model of the atom that you have learnt in the text. To simulate what he might well have done before his discovery, let us play as follows with the basic constants of and see if we can get a quantity with the dimensions of length that is roughly equal to the known of an atom (~ 10^ -10 m).- Construct a quantity with the dimensions of length from the fundamental constants e, m_e , and c. Determine its numerical value.

The earth- moon distance is about 60 earth radius. Moon is seen to be of (1//2)^@ diameter from the earth. From parallax measurement, the sun is found to be at a distance of about 400 times the earth-moon distance. Estimate the ratio of sun earth diameters.

From the pair of linear equations in the following problems and find their solutions (if they exist) by elimination method : The sum of a two digit number and another formed by reversing its digit is 99. Five added to the number yields 4 less than 6 times the sum of its digits. Determine the number.

Thequestion had greatly puzzled Bohr before he arrived at his famous model of the atom that you have learnt in the text. To simulate what he might well have done before his discovery, let us play as followswith the basic constants of nature e, me, c and see if we can get a quantity with the dimensions of length that is roughly equal to the known size of an atom (~ 10 m).- You will find that the length obtained above is many orders of magnitude smaller than the atomic dimensions. Further, it involves c. But energies of atoms are mostly in non-relativistic domain where c is not expected to play any role. This is what may have suggested Bohr to discard c and look for else h had already made its appearance elsewhere. Bohr lay in recognising that h, m_e , and e will yield the right atomic size. Construct a quantity with the dimension of length from h, me, and e and confirm that its numerical value has indeed the correct order of magnitude.

A colloidal solution is a type of mixture which consists of particles whose size varies between 1 and 1000 nanometres. In colloidal solution the particles are distributed evenly. During this process the particles do not settle down. This is one of the best know thing about colloidal solutions. Properties of colloids and their variation are a well-known area ever since the primitive age. The best example to prove their familiarity with us is that we know from very early times that coagulation of milk results in the formation of curd. Physical properties of colloids 1. The nature of the colloidal solution is heterogeneous i.e. unlike. These solutions dwell with two different phases : • Dispersed medium Dispersed phase. 2. Despite the fact that colloidal dispersions are unlike in description (nature), yet the dispersed fragments are not detectable by the human eye. This is due to the microscopic size of the particles in the solution. 3. The colour of the colloidal dispersion is determined by particles in the solution based on their size. The wavelengths of light that is absorbed will be longer ifthe size of the particle is large. 4. As a result of its size, the colloidal fragments can easily be passed through a traditional filter paper. However, these particles can be filtered by using membranes such as animal, cellophane, and ultrafilters. What are colloidal solution particle.
