The shape of the nodal curves is
Mark the CORRECT statements(s)
A: The corpuscular theory fails in explaining the velocities of light in air and water.
B: According to corpuscular theory, the light should travel faster in a 'denser medium than in a rarer medium.
A charged particle having drift velocity of $7.5\times 10^{-4}m$ $s^{-1}$ in electric field of $3\times 10^{-10}$V $m^{-1}$, mobility is?
Which of the following characteristics of electrons determines the current in a conductor?
When current flows through a conductor, then the order of drift velocity of electrons will be:-
Potential difference of $100 V$ is applied to the ends of a copper wire one metre long. Find the ratio of average drift velocity and thermal velocity of electrons at $27^\circ C$. (Consider there is one conduction electron per atom. The density of copper is $9.0 \times 10^3$; Atomic mass of copper is $63.5 g$.
$N _A = 6.0 \times 10^{23}$ per gram-mole, conductivity of copper is $5.81 \times 10^{7} \Omega^{-1}$.$K =1.38 \times 10^{-23} JK^{-1}$).
Assertion: When a straight wire is bent to form L-shape, its resistance increases.
Reason: Electrons take longer time to travel along a bent wire, as compared to travel along a straight wire.
When the current in a wire is 1A, the drift velocity is $1.2\times 10^{-4}ms^{-1}$. The drift velocity when current becomes 5 A is
