Acceleration and velocity of a particle moving with uniform speed in a circular path ? NEET UG2024

The acceleration of the particle in unifrom circular motion (constant speed) is constantly changing in direction as it is always directed towards the center. Hence , it is said to be variable.

As direction of velocity too is continuously changing so it is said to be variable velocity.

Short note about galvanometer, ammeter, voltmeter and shunt.

Galvanometer is a device used to detect and measure small currents and also direction of current, it measures current of the order of micro ampere. Due to its high sensitivity, high current may damage it.

Ammeter is used for measuring current and it is connected in series with the component for which we wish to know the current flowing through.

As the ammeter is connected in series (in series resistance is added directly) with the circuit so its resistance should be as minimum as possible so that it can't affect the net resistance leading to neligible effect on current already flowing in the circuit. Resistance of an ideal ammeter is zero.

Shunt is a low resistance connected in parallel with a device to reduce the amount of electric current flowing though it(device).

Note- " A galvanometer can be converted to an ammeter by connecting a shunt parallel to it."

Not in series because in that case it can increase net resistance.

 

Voltmeter is a device used to measure potential difference between two points in a circuit. It is connected in parallel with the device for which the potential difference betweeen its both ends is desired.

As voltmeter is connected in parallel so to ensure a very low or negligible current through it, its resistance is kept very high, for an ideal voltmeter its resistance is infinite.

"If current through voltmeter is considerable then it would mean that it hampered net current leading to incorrect measurement of potential difference(PD)."

Note- "A galvanometer can be converted to a voltmeter by connecting a high resistance in series with it."

Temporary or electromagnets are made of soft iron why ? CBSE, NEET, CUET,NTA-JEE

It is to easy to magnetize and demagnetize the soft iron owing to its low retentivity and low coercivity.

Where low retentivity means that it becomes a weak magnet when the current is switched off.

and low coercivity means that it requires small opposite current to bring it back to the non-magnetic state.

Properties of X-rays

As the x-rays are part of electromagnetic spectrum or in other words these are electromagnetic waves (EMW) so they have all the properties of EMW viz.

1. They don't require medium to travel or they can travel in space.

2.They travel in straight line

3. They travel with speed of light in space

4. They are consists of photons which are chargeless, massless quanta of enrgy so no deflection is observed in electric or magnetic field.

other wavelenght specific properties

5. X-rays produce illumination when falls on flourescent materials.

6. Photons of X-rays can ionise(ejecting outer orbits electron) the gases when x-rays pass through them.

7.X-rays can pass through flesh but not pass through bones that is their penetration capacity depends on material they strike. In genral penetration capacity decreases with wavelength that is higher wavelenght has weaker penetration capacity.

8.X rays has wavelength in range 1-100 Angstrom so possess high energy so can exhibit photo electric effect when strikes a photo sensitive material.

9.X-rays can kill cancerous cells so used in radiotherapy
