In a plane electromagnetic wave travelling in free space, the electric field component oscillates sinusoidally at a frequency of 2.0 × 10^10 Hz and amplitude 48 V m^–1. Then the amplitude of oscillating magnetic field is (Speed of light in free space = 3 × 10^8 m s^–1)

V= E/B

for free space v=c 

Putting all values in MKS (c=3 × 10^8, E=48 ) we get B=1.6 × 10^–7 Tesla

A full wave rectifier circuit consists of two p-n junction diodes, a centre-tapped transformer, capacitor and a load resistance. Which of these components remove the ac ripple from the rectified output?

Capacitor is used to remove AC ripples because voltage across it doesn't change rapidly so ripples of change are minimized.

AC have ripples because supply have variable voltage throughout its cycle.

 

One pn diode works in +ve cycle and another in negative cycle.

Center tapped transformer ensures supply of equal voltage to both diodes.

Load resistance is for output.

A 12 V, 60 W lamp is connected to the secondary of a step-down transformer, whose primary is connected to ac mains of 220 V. Assuming the transformer to be ideal, what is the current in the primary winding?

Ideal so power at primary(Pp) is eqaul to power at secondary(Ps)

Ps is 60Watt

Pp= VI where V is 220 Volt so I= 60/220 i.e. 0.27Ampere

The work functions of Cesium (Cs), Potassium (K) and Sodium (Na) are 2.14 eV, 2.30 eV and 2.75 eV respectively. If incident electromagnetic radiation has an incident energy of 2.20 eV, which of these photosensitive surfaces may emit photoelectrons? NEET UG 2023

Basic Fact- For photoelctric emission to occur incident radiation must have energy(E) equal to or greater than work function(W) of the material, for given question E exceeds W for Cs only.
