Question 617: [Operational
Amplifier Circuits]
Amplifier circuit incorporating an
operational amplifier (op-amp) shown in Fig.1.
(a) State
(i) name of this type of amplifier
circuit
(ii) gain G in terms of resistances
R1 and R2
(b) Value of R1 is 820 Ω.
The resistor of resistance R2 is replaced with light-dependent
resistor (LDR).
Input potential difference VIN
is 15mV.
Calculate output potential
difference VOUT for LDR having a resistance of
(i) 100Ω (LDR is in sunlight)
(ii) 1.0MΩ (LDR is in darkness)
Reference: Past Exam Paper – November 2010 Paper 41 & 42 Q9
Solution 617:
(a)
(i) Non-inverting (amplifier)
(ii) Gain G = 1 + R2/R1
(b)
(i)
Gain = 1 + 100/820 (= 1.12)
(Gain = VOUT/VIN)
Output = (Gain
x VIN = 1.12x15 =) 17mV
(ii)
{Gain = 1 + [(1x106)/820]
= 1220
Output = Gain x VIN
= 1220 x 15 = 18397 mV = 18V
But the input supply line
is only 9V. So, the op-amp saturates. The output is thus 9V (equal to the input
supply line)}
Output = 9V
Question 618: [Modulation]
(a) Radio communication may be either frequency modulated or amplitude
modulated. Explain what is meant by modulation.
(b) Amplitude-modulated radio wave is to be used for broadcast of
music having frequencies between 30 Hz and 4500 Hz. Radio station is
broadcasting in the long wave waveband (wavelengths between 1 × 103 m
and 1 × 104 m).
Determine
(i) bandwidth of the broadcast,
(ii) maximum number of radio
stations that could operate simultaneously in the same area within the long
wave waveband.
(c) On axes of Fig.1, sketch graph of a typical power spectrum for the
radio station in (b).
Label the x-axis with values of
frequency.
Reference: Past Exam Paper – November 2006 Paper 6 Q15
Solution 618:
(a) Modulations are variations in either the amplitude or the
frequency of a wave
EITHER in synchrony with the displacement
of information signal
OR in order to carry information on
the wave
(b)
(i)
{The bandwidth is twice
the (maximum) audio frequency.}
Bandwidth of the broadcast = 9 kHz
(ii).
The LW (long wave) frequency range
is 30 kHz → 300 kHz
{The bandwidth of 1
broadcast (used by 1 station) is 9 kHz as stated above. Now, the frequencies of
the long wave waveband varies from 30 kHz → 300 kHz. So, 1 station could use
frequencies 30 kHz to 38 kHz (there’s actually 9 here: 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35,
36, 37 and 38), another 39 kHz to 47 kHz, etc …
To find the maximum number
of stations, we take (300 – 30) / 9}
Number of stations = 270 / 9 = 30
(c)
For the sketch, the carrier
frequency should be shown as a vertical line and two sidebands. There should be
a reasonable symmetry with the sideband indicating approx. 4500 Hz range.
{Note that the carrier
frequency has be chosen between the range of 30 kHz and 300 kHz. (Of course, 30
kHz would not work because one of the sidebands would be outside the range.)
The sidebands should each be shown 4500 Hz away from the carrier frequency.}
Question 619:
[Electric Potential]
(a) Define electric potential at a point.
(b) Isolated solid metal sphere is positively charged.
Variation of the potential V with
distance x from the centre of the sphere is shown in Fig.1.
Use Fig.1 to suggest
(i) why radius of the sphere cannot
be greater than 1.0 cm,
(ii) that charge on the sphere
behaves as if it were a point charge.
(c) Assuming that charge on the sphere does behave as a point charge,
use data from Fig.1 to determine the charge on the sphere.
Reference: Past Exam Paper – November 2014 Paper 41
& 42 Q5
Solution 619:
Go toAn isolated solid metal sphere is positively charged. The variation of the potential V with distance x from the centre of the sphere is shown in Fig. 5.1.
Question 620: [Forces]
Two co-planar forces act on rim of a
wheel. The forces are equal in magnitude.
Which arrangement of forces provides
only a couple?
Reference: Past Exam Paper – November 2011 Paper 12
Q13
Solution 620:
Answer: D.
The system of forces can be provide
both a resultant force and a resultant torque. We need only a couple, so the
resultant force should be zero.
For the resultant force to be zero,
the direction of the 2 forces should oppose each other. [A, B and C are incorrect]
A couple on an object consists of 2
equal forces acting in opposite directions to each other, they act through 2
different points, in such a way that they produce a turning effect.
E.g. steering wheel in a car
Assalam alikum sir rather than doing questions that are already done can u do new questions http://physics-ref.blogspot.com/2014/09/9702-november-2010-paper-41-42-worked.html
ReplyDeleteFor question 618 u gave wrong reference there is no paper 6. Could u please do more paper 1.
I'm only soling questions that viewers ask through the comments. For those already solved, sometimes I add more details so that it is clear.
DeleteJust let me know which questions you are having doubts and I'll try to help
In the past, there was a paper 6 for Options, now I think it's no longer there.
DeleteMay ALLAH SUBHANAH tallah give u ajar for your this noble deed u have helped lot of students.
ReplyDeleteAmeen

ReplyDeleteQ 6 (b) y do we multiply the force with 2 to find the variation??

Q 619 b (i) part
ReplyDeletecan you please explain a bit more.
Even though this not directly shown in the graph, it is known that the electric potential starts to decrease from the surface of the sphere from further away and that the electric potential is constant inside the sphere (since the electric field intensity is zero inside the sphere). - This should be taken as a fact. It is beyond the syllabus to prove it.
DeleteSince the graph starts at x = 1cm (and the part before x = 1cm is not shown [it is not be zero]), we can infer that before x = 1cm, we are inside the sphere.
If the radius was greater than 1.0cm, the electric potential should be constant for some values of x after x = 1cm.
can u solve question 4 from w13 paper 12?

For Q.618 How did the frequencies labelled on the graph come up? The sidebands should each be shown 4500 Hz away from the carrier frequency while the values on the graph are 95.5, 100, 104.5
ReplyDeleteThe values are given in kHz
Deletehow to know the carrier frequency is 100kHz? Thanks
Deletethe value 100 kHz is taken at random. what is important is that the sidebands are equal frequencies away.
