(c) increases, thermal velocity of the electron decreases
(d) decreases, thermal velocity of the electron decreases

force and have same acceleration?

13 A point charge q is taken from a to c and then from c to b of a circle 2

more work will be done?

these graphs represents V-I change for l1.

SECTION C
15 Find the capacitance of a partially filled capacitor. 3

16 Three capacitors C1, C2 & C3 are connected to a 3


battery of 6V as shown in fig. Find the charges on the
three capacitors.

17 An electric dipole free to move is placed in a uniform electric filed. Explain along with 3
diagram its motion when it is placed.
(a) parallel to the field
(b) perpendicular to the field.

18 A battery of emf 12 V and internal resistance 0.5 Ω is to be charged by a battery 3


charger which supplies 110 V dc. How much resistance must be connected in series
with the battery to limit the charging current to 5 A? What will be the PD across the
terminals of the battery during charging?

SECTION D
19 Emf of a cell is the maximum potential difference between two electrodes of the cell 4
when no current is drawn from the cell. Internal
resistance is the resistance offered by the electrolyte of
a cell when the electric current flows through it.
The internal resistance of a cell depends upon the
following factors;
(a) distance between the electrodes
(b) nature and temperature of the electrolyte
(c) nature of electrodes A
(d) area of electrodes.
For a freshly prepared cell, the value of internal resistance is generally low and goes
on increasing as the cell is put to more and more use. The potential difference
between the two electrodes of a cell in a closed circuit is called terminal potential
difference and its value is always less than the emf of the cell in a closed circuit. It
can be written as V=E — Ir.
1. The terminal potential difference of two electrodes of a cell is equal to emf of the
cell when
(a) I ≠ 0 (b) I = 0
(c) both (a) and (b) (d) neither (a) nor (b)
2. A cell of emf € and internal resistance r gives a current of 0.5 A with an external
resistance of 12 Ω and a current of 0.25 A with an external resistance of 25 Ω. What
is the value of internal resistance of the cell?
(a) 5 Ω (b) 12 Ω
(c) 7 Ω (d) 3 Ω
3. An external resistance R is connected to a cell of internal resistance r, give the
condition when maximum current flows in the external resistance. 2
OR
3. IF external resistance connected to a cell has been increased to 5 times, the
potential difference across the terminals of the cell increases from 10 V to 30 V.
Then, what is the emf of the cell? 2

SECTION E
20 (a) Why electric field lines never intersect each other? 2 5
(b) Find electric field at a point on equatorial line due to an ideal dipole. 3
