The given graph shows the variation of photo-electric current (I) versus applied voltage (V) for two difference photosensitive materials and for two different intensities of the incident radiations. Identify the pairs of curves that correspond to different materials but same intensity of incident radiation.

Block diagram of a receiver is shown in the figure:

(a) Identify ‘X’ and ‘Y’.

(b) Write their functions.

In a series LCR circuit connected to an ac source of variable frequency and voltage ν = v_m sin ωt, draw a plot showing the variation of current (I) with angular frequency (ω) for two different values of resistance R₁ and R₂ (R₁ > R₂). Write the condition under which the phenomenon of resonance occurs. For which value of the resistance out of the two curves, a sharper resonance is produced? Define Q-factor of the circuit and give its significance.

When monochromatic light travels from a rarer to a denser medium, explain the following, giving reasons:

(i) Is the frequency of reflected and refracted light same as the frequency of incident light?

(ii) Does the decrease in speed imply a reduction in the energy carried by light wave?

A wheel with 8 metallic spokes each 50 cm long is rotated with a speed of 120 rev/min in a plane normal to the horizontal component of the Earth’s magnetic field. The Earth’s magnetic field at the place is 0.4 G and the angle of dip is 60°. Calculate the emf induced between the axle and the rim of the wheel. How will the value of emf be affected if the number of spokes were increased?

Distinguish between ‘Analog and Digital signals’.

Write any two factors which justify the need for modulating a signal ?

Draw a diagram showing an amplitude modulated wave by superposing a modulating signal over a sinusoidal carrier wave.

A proton and an electron have same kinetic. Which one has greater de-Broglie wavelength and why?

 State Huygen’s principle. Using this principle explain how a diffraction pattern is obtained on a screen due to a narrow slit on which a narrow beam coming from a `=> n = (vlamda)/(vlamda_omega)`monochromatic source of light is incident normally.

If a monochromatic source of light is replaced by white light, what change would you observe in the diffraction pattern?
