Q1.
An electron beam has an aperture of 2 mm². A total of 7 × 10¹⁵ electrons flow through any perpendicular cross-section per second. Calculate the current density of the electron beam.

Q2.
The charge in a given wire varies with time, given by -
    q = 3t³ - t²
Where, q in 'C' and t in 'secs'.
Find the current flowing in the wire at 4th second.

Q3.
The current flowing in a conductor is the function of time, given by -
   I = 8t - 3
Where, I in 'Ampere' and t in'secs'.

Find the total charge flowed in first 5 seconds in the conductor.
Also, find the charge which flowed from 6th to 8th second.

Q4. A storage battery of EMF 8 volt and internal resistance 0.5 ohm is being charged by a 120 volt dc supply using a series resistor of 15.5 ohm. What is the terminal voltage of the battery during charging? What is the purpose of having a series resistor in the charging circuit?

Q5. The manufacturer sticker on an electric bulb reads 220 V, 60 W. If the supply voltage available is 100 V then what current will be drawn by the bulb?

Q6. Find the percentage increase or decrease in the resistance of a metallic wire at 24°C if it is stretched to 130% of its original length.

Q7. Two conducting wires X and Y of same diameter across a battery. If the number density of electrons in X is twice that in Y, find the ratio of drift velocity of electrons in the two wires if both wires carry the same current.

What if we can contact Aliens ? by Physics Advocate/advguruji

Before the beginning, first discuss about aliens. Aliens are those creatures which do not belong to our world. For more than 50 years we are searching for aliens and we have found nothing. Are they ignoring us? Now a question comes to our mind. Can we contact aliens? The answer is: most probably NO. But why? Because first we have to find that type of planets (or natural satellites) which can support life. This is not an easy task. Also, a planet which can support life is not enough. Why? Because life can exist in various forms. One form is unicellular organisms. For example, in our solar system it is believed that Titan (Saturn's moon) can support unicellular life. But the disadvantage is we cannot contact them by our communication methods. But yes, there is a high possibility in future that a rover mission can take some samples of the unicellular or may be small multicellular organisms and send the data to Earth. Now comes the interesting part. If a planet is supporti...
