Question # 1

The rest mass of photon is zero.Is its momentum also zero?

Ans 1: No,The rest mass of photon is zero.It travels in the form of small energy packets which are of equal wavelength .When it is in motion,it possesses some mass.So it which it will also have momentum.

Question # 2

Distinguished between photoelectric effect and Compton effect.

Ans 1: The emission of electron from a metal surface when exposed to suitable frequency light is called photoelectric effect and when x rays are scattered by loosely bound electrons from graphite target the phenomena of change in wavelength is known as compton effect.

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 # 6

Photoelectric effect give the evidence of the particle nature of light,Explain it how?

Ans 1: If light were simple a wave like phenomena ,then increasing the intensity and thereby increasing the total energy failing on the surface would be expected to eventually provide enough energy to release electron no matter what the frequency .Furthermore in the classical picture one would expect the maximum energy of the emitted electrons to depend on the intensity of light--but it does not.So this is evidence that light behaves as if it were a particle.

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

Question # 9

What are conclusion made from the pair production?

Ans 1: Pair production is the creation of an elementary particle and its antiparticle,Pair production offers refers specifically to a photon creating an electron positron pair near a nucleus but can more generally refer to any particle antiparticle pair creation.
Energy can be converted into mass according to E=mc²

Question # 10

Question # 1

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 # 2

If you are moving in a spaceship at very high speed relative to the earth.Would you notice difference(a)In your pulse rate(b)In the pulse rate of people on the earth?

Ans 1:
1. The pulse rate of the person inside the spaceship moving with large velociety will decrease.
2. The pulse rate of the people on the earth with respect to the person inside the spaceship with large velocity will increase.

Question # 3

What are the measurement on which two observers in relative motion will always agree upon?

Ans 1: Two observe in relative motion will always agree upon
1. Force
2. Acceleration

Question # 4

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 # 5

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 # 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

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 # 8

Photoelectric effect give the evidence of the particle nature of light,Explain it how?

Ans 1: If light were simple a wave like phenomena ,then increasing the intensity and thereby increasing the total energy failing on the surface would be expected to eventually provide enough energy to release electron no matter what the frequency .Furthermore in the classical picture one would expect the maximum energy of the emitted electrons to depend on the intensity of light--but it does not.So this is evidence that light behaves as if it were a particle.

Ans 1: No,The rest mass of photon is zero.It travels in the form of small energy packets which are of equal wavelength .When it is in motion,it possesses some mass.So it which it will also have momentum.

Question # 10

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.

Write at least two justification for light to behave as wave and as a particle.

Ans 1: Interference and diffraction confirms wave nature of light while photoelectric effect and compton effect confirms particle nature of light.

Question # 6

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 # 7

Which has the lower energy quanta,radio waves or x rays?Explain

Ans 1: Energy of quanta is given as E=hf-hc/lamda
Radio waves length has longer wavelength,Therefore radio waves has lower energy quanta.

Question # 8

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.
