Question
A right-angled triangle abc, made from a metallic wire, moves at a uniform speed v in its plane as shown in figure. A uniform magnetic field B exists in the perpendicular direction. Find the emf induced:
  1. In the loop abc.
  2. In the segment bc.
  3. In the segment ac.
  4. In the segment ab.

Answer


  1. Zero as the components of ab are exactly opposite to that of bc. So they cancel each other. Because velocity should be perpendicular to the length.
  2. e = Bv × l

= Bv(bc) + ve at C

  1. e = 0 as the velocity is not perpendicular to the length.
  2. e = Bv(bc) positive at ‘a’.

i.e. the component of ‘ab’ along the perpendicular direction.

  1. In the explanation of photo electric effect, we asssume one photon of frequency ν collides with an electron and transfers its energy. This leads to the equation for the maximum energy Emax of the emitted electron as,

where $\phi_0$ is the work function of the metal. If an electron absorbs 2 photons (each of frequency ν ) what will be the maximum energy for the emitted electron?
