Physics - ICS Part 2 Physics Chapter 19 Short Questions Preparation

Question # 1

As a solid is heated and begins to glow ,why does it first of its absolute.

Ans 1: Since the red light has longest wavelength ,so it will be emitted first and solid appears red first.

Question # 2

Define Compton effect.Write formula of Compton shift for scattering angle.

Ans 1: When X-rays are scattered by loosely bound electrons from a graphite target,the phenomena of change in wavelength is known as Compton Effect.Compton shift for scattering angle is given
$\lambda '-\lambda ={\frac {h}{m_{e}c}}(1-\cos {\theta }),$

Question # 3

Define ionization potential and excitation potential.

Ans 1: Ionization potential:The potential necessary to remove an electron from the atom is called ionization potential,It is expressed in volts.
Ans 2: Excitation potential:The potential require to raise orbital electron in atom from one energy level to an other is called excitation potential.

Question # 4

Why can red light be used in a photographic dark room when developing films,but a blue or white light can not?

Ans 1: As we known red light has longest wavelength in visible spectrum,therefore it has less energy than that of blue or white light.So red light is least scattered on account of its large wavelength.Hence photographic films and the materials concerned are less affected in the presence of red light than high energy blue of white light.

Question # 5

Will the bright light ejects more from metal surface than dimmer light of tha same colour?

Ans 1: Since intensitynumber of electrons.
and bright lightis more intensethan dimmer one.So bright light will ejects more electrons than dimmer light.

Question # 6

Differentiate between special theory of relativity and general theory of relativity.

Ans 1: The special theory of relativity treats problem involving inertial or non accelerating frame of reference.
Ans 2: The general theory of relativity treats problem involving frames of reference accelerating with respect to one another.

Question # 7

What do you understand by work function and stopping potential?

Ans 1: The minimum amount energy required to remove an electron from the surface of a metal is called work function.
And the stopping potential is the potential difference applied to stop the electrons from being ejected from the surface when the light falls on it.

Question # 8

Can an object move with the speed of light?

Ans 1: As an object approaches the speed of light,its masses rises abruptly.If an object tries to travel 186,000 miles per seconds,its mass become infinite and so does the energy required to move it, For this reasons ,no normal object can be travel as fast as or faster than the speed of light.

Question # 9

What is wave particle duality?

Ans 1: It says that light has dual nature;it travels in the form of waves but interacts with matter in the form of energy particle called as photon.e.g in interference ,reflection and polarization it show the properties of wave nature but in phenomena like pair production and compton's effect light acts as energy particle.

Question # 10

Will higher frequency of light ejects greater number of electrons than low frequency of light?

Ans 1: No it will not,The number of ejected electrons depend upon the intensity of light.They are independently of frequency.

Question # 1

Why don't we observe a Compton Effect with visible light?

Ans 1: The frequency of visible light is less than x rays,And the wavelength of visible light is much greater than the Compton of wavelength of electron,So compton effect can not observed with visible light.

Question # 2

Define Stopping potential and Threshold frequency.

Ans 1: Stopping potential:The stopping potential is the potential difference applied to stop the electrons from being ejected from the surface when the light fall on it.
Threshold frequency:The minimum of frequency of incident light at which electrons are emitted from a surface is called threshold frequency.

Question # 3

When light shine on surface,is momentum transferred to metal surface?

Ans 1: Yes when light shine on surface,momentum is transferred to metal surface and also the energy.So metal is heated up.

Question # 4

When does light behaves as a wave?When does light behaves as a particle?

Ans 1: Light behave as a wave when it propagates from one place to other and light behave as a particle when it interacts with matter,Light behaves as a wave in interference and diffraction,Light behaves as a particle in photoelectric and Compton effect.

Question # 5

What are black body radiations and how can you get a black body?

Ans 1: An objects that absorbs all radiations falling on it,at all wavelength is called a black body.
When a body is heated ,it emits radiation its emission is called black body.
Black body is solid that has hollow cavity within it and a small hole through which radiations can enter or escape.The inside is blackened with suit to make it as good an absorber and as a bad reflector as possible.

Question # 6

Define work function and threshold frequency.

Ans 1: The minimum amount of energy required to remove electrons from a metal surface is called work function of this metal.
The minimum frequency below which photoelectric effect can not occur from a metal surface is called threshold frequency of this metal.

Question # 8

Differentiate between inertial and non-inertial frame of reference.

Ans 1: A coordinate system in which the law of inertia is valid is called inertial frame of reference.It is non-accelerated frame of reference.
Ans 2: A coordinate system in which the law of inertia is not valid is called non-inertial frame of reference.It is accelerated frame of reference.

Question # 9

Define Compton effect.

Ans 1: The phenomena of increase in wavelength of x rays photon scattered by loosely bound electrons from a graphite target is called Compton Effect.

Question # 10

Can a pair production take place in vacuum?Explain

Ans 1: No,pair production can not take place in vacuum.
In order to conserve the momentum and energy,their presence of heavy nucleus is essential,The vacuum has no particle or heavy nucleus,Therefore pair production can not take place in vacuum.

And the stopping potential is the potential difference applied to stop the electrons from being ejected from the surface when the light falls on it.

Question # 5

Does the dilation mean that time really passes more slowly in moving system or that it only seems to pass more slowly.Explain briefly.

Ans 1: According to dilation formula
t= $\scriptstyle {\sqrt {1-{\frac {v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}}$ "
This relation show that a clock moving with respect to an observe appears to move slow then it does when it is at rest with respecttohim.So the moving clocks just appears to run slowly to the observer at rest.Hence time dilation is an apparent change and it only seems to pass more slowly but not actually.

Question # 6

Is it possible to create a single electron from energy?Explain

Ans 1: No it is not possible to create a single electron from energy.Creation of single electron will be against the law of conservation of charge and the law of conservation of momenteum.In pair production an electron positron pair is produces.

Question # 7

A satellite is orbiting around earth.Is its frame of reference inertial or non-inertial ?Justify your answer.

Ans 1: The motion of the satellite is synchronized with the earth so it is in the same frame of reference in which earth lies.Hence the frame of reference will be inertial.

Question # 8

Will higher frequency of light ejects greater number of electrons than low frequency of light?

Ans 1: No it will not,The number of ejected electrons depend upon the intensity of light.They are independently of frequency.

Question # 9

What do you know by annihilation of matter?

Ans 1: When a positron comes close to an electron,they annihilate and produce two photons in the gamma rays range.It is called annihilation of matter.

Question # 10

Define work function and threshold frequency.

Ans 1: The minimum amount of energy required to remove electrons from a metal surface is called work function of this metal.
The minimum frequency below which photoelectric effect can not occur from a metal surface is called threshold frequency of this metal.
