TOPIC PRACTICE 1 | OBJECTIVE Type Questions 1. One metallic sphere A is given positive charge whereas another identical metallic sphere 8 of exactly same mass as of Ais given equal amount of negative charge. Then, (a) mass of A and mass of B still remain equal (b) mass of A increases (c) mass of B decreases (d) mass of B increases 2. Ingeneral, metallic ropes are suspended from the carriers to the ground which take inflammable material. The reason is \@) their speed is controlled (b) to keep the gravity of the carrier nearer to the earth (c) to keep the body of the carrier in contact with the earth (@) nothing should be placed under the carrier a 4. 5 Im charging by induction, {@) beay to he charged must bean insulator (@) bed tobe charged must he a semiconductor (6) by to he charged must bea conductor (@) ary typeof ody canbe charged by induction Charge on a body isq, and it is used to charge another body by induction.

NCERT Give any two points of difference between charge and mass. 2s. A paisa coin is made up of Al-Mg alloys and weighs 0.75 g. It has a square shape and its diagonal measures 17 mm. It is electrically neutral and contains equal amount of positive and negative charges. Treating the Paisa coins made up of only Al. find the magnitude of equal number of positive and negative charges. What conclusion de you draw from this magnitude? NCERT Exemplar LONG ANSWER ‘Type I Questions 30. a1 Describe some of the differences between charging by induction and charging by contact. (@) Explain the meaning of the statement “electric charge of a body is quantised™. Gi) Why can one ignore quantisation of electric charge. when dealing with macroscopic, ie. large scale charges? NCERT ‘Two insulated reds 4A and Bare oppositely charged on their ends. They are mounted at the centres, so that they are free to rotate and then held in the position shown in the figure, in a view from above. ‘The rods rotate in the plane of the paper. Will the reds stay in those positions when. released? If not, then what position(s) will they move? Will their final confguration(s) be stable? SS OS A s It is now beliewed that protons and neutrons (which constitute nuclei of ordinary matter) are themselves built our of more elementary units called quarks. A proton and a neutron consist of three quarks each, Two types of quarks, so called ‘up’ quark (denoted by 4) of charge + (3) e and the ‘down! quark (denoted by d) of 1 charge C E)+. cogether with electrons build up ordinary matter. (Other types of quark have also been found which give rise to different unusual varieties of matter). NUMERICAL PROBLEMS 34. What is the total charge of a system containing five charges +1, +2,—3, +[Link]—Sin some arbitrary unit? How many electrons are there in one coulomb of negative charge? Ametal sphere has a charge of - 6 4C. When 5x10 electrons are removed from the sphere, what would be net charge on it? A sphere of lead of mass 10 g has net charge -2.5%107°C w d the number of excess clectrons on the sphere. (i) How many excess electrons are per lead atom? Atomic number of lead is $2 and its atomic mass is 207 g/mol.
