(a) Avoid the production of induced emf
(b) Avoid the production of eddy currents
(c) Increase the production of eddy currents
(d) Increase the production of induced emf
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) Avoid the production of eddy currents
Explanation:
1. The moving coil galvanometer have their coil wound on a metallic (copper or aluminium) frame, so as to make the motion dead beat due to the production of eddy currents. In the ballistic galvanometer, on the other hand, the damping is to be reduced to the minimum and hence the frame is of a non-conducting material \(eg,\) paper or bamboo.

(c) The resistance will be halved and the specific resistance will be doubled
(d) The resistance and the specific resistance, will both remain unchanged
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) The resistance will be halved and the specific resistance will remain unchanged
Explanation:

Explanation:
1. In Stretching of wire \(R∝{l}^{2}⇒\frac{{R}_{1}}{{R}_{2}}={\left(\frac{{l}_{1}}{{l}_{2}}\right)}^{2}\)
2. If \({l}_{1}=100\), then \({l}_{2}=110 ⇒\frac{{R}_{1}}{{R}_{2}}={\left(\frac{100}{110}\right)}^{2}\)
3. \(⇒{R}_{2}=1.21 {R}_{1}\)
4. Resistivity doesn’t change with stretching

Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (d) \(\mathrm{cot}\,θ\)
Explanation:
1. At an instant approach the student will choose \(\mathrm{tan}\,θ\) will be the right answer. But it is to be seen here the curve makes the angle \(θ\) with the \(V\)-axis. So it makes an angle \((90-θ)\) with the \(i\)-axis
2. So resistance=slope\(=\mathrm{tan}\,\left(90-θ\right)=\mathrm{cot}\,θ\)

(a) Be doubled
(b) Be halved
(c) Be quadrupled
(d) Remain unchanged
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) Be doubled
Explanation:
1. Drift velocity is defined as the average velocity with which free electrons get defined towards the positive end of the conductor under the influence of an external electric field.
2. Drift velocity is given by
3. \({v}_{d}=\frac{eEτ}{m}\)
4. \(But E=\frac{V}{l}\)
5. (if \(l\) is length of the conductor and V is constant potential difference applied across the ends of the conductor)
6. \(∴{v}_{d}=\frac{eVτ}{ml}⟹{v}_{d}∝V\)
7. So, when the potential difference is doubled the drift velocity will be doubled.
