2. Answer the following questions.

Question 1.
Star A is farther than star B. Which star will have a large parallax angle?
Answer:

i). ‘b’ is constant for the two stars
∴ θ ∝ \(\frac{1}{D}\)

ii) As star A is farther i.e., D_A > D_B
⇒ θ_A < θ_B
Hence, star B will have larger parallax angle than star A.

Answer:

[Note: When power of symbol expressing fundamental quantity appearing in the dimensional formula is not given, ills taken as 1.]

Question 3.
Define absolute error, mean absolute error, relative error and percentage error.
Answer:
Absolute error:
a. For a given set of measurements of a quantity, the magnitude of the difference between mean value (Most probable value) and each individual value is called absolute error (∆a) in the measurement of that quantity.
b. absolute error = |mean value – measured value|
∆a₁ = |a_mean – a₁|
Similarly, ∆a₂ = |a_mean – a₂|
. . . ..
. . . .
. . . .
∆a_n = |a_mean – a_n|

Mean absolute error:
For a given set of measurements of a same quantity the arithmetic mean of all the absolute errors is called mean absolute error in the measurement of that physical quantity.
∆a_mean = \(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{a}_{1}+\Delta \mathrm{a}_{2}+\ldots \ldots .+\Delta \mathrm{a}_{n}}{\mathrm{n}}=\frac{1}{\mathrm{n}} \sum_{\mathrm{i}=1}^{n} \Delta \mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{i}}\)

Relative error:
The ratio of the mean absolute error in the measurement of a physical quantity to its arithmetic mean value is called relative error.
Relative error = \(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{mean}}}{\mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{mean}}}\)

Percentage error:
The relative error represented by percentage (i.e., multiplied by 100) is called the percentage error.
Percentage error = \(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{mean}}}{\mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{mean}}}\) × 100%
[Note: Considering conceptual conventions question is modified to define percentage error and not mean percentage error.]

Question 4.
Describe what is meant by significant figures and order of magnitude.
Answer:
Significant figures:

1. Significant figures in the measured value of a physical quantity is the sum of reliable digits and the first uncertain digit.
   OR
   The number of digits in a measurement about which we are certain, plus one additional digit, the first one about which we are not certain is known as significant figures or significant digits.
2. Larger the number of significant figures obtained in a measurement, greater is the accuracy of the measurement. The reverse is also true.
3. If one uses the instrument of smaller least count, the number of significant digits increases.

Rules for determining significant figures:

1. All the non-zero digits are significant, for example if the volume of an object is 178.43 cm³, there are five significant digits which are 1,7,8,4 and 3.
2. All the zeros between two nonzero digits are significant, eg., m = 165.02 g has 5 significant digits.
3. If the number is less than 1, the zero/zeroes on the right of the decimal point and to the left of the first nonzero digit are not significant e.g. in 0.001405, significant. Thus the above number has four significant digits.
4. The zeroes on the right hand side of the last nonzero number are significant (but for this, the number must be written with a decimal point), e.g. 1.500 or 0.01500 both have 4 significant figures each.
   On the contrary, if a measurement yields length L given as L = 125 m = 12500 cm = 125000 mm, it has only three significant digits.

Order of magnitude:
The magnitude of any physical quantity can be expressed as A × 10ⁿ where ‘A’ is a number such that 0.5 ≤ A < 5 then, ‘n’ is an integer called the order of magnitude.
Examples:

1. Speed of light in air = 3 × 10⁸ m/s
   ∴ order of magnitude = 8
2. Mass of an electron = 9.1 × 10^-31 kg
   = 0.91 × 10³⁰ kg
   ∴ order of magnitude = -30

Question 5.
If the measured values of two quantities are A ± ∆A and B ± ∆B, ∆A and ∆B being the mean absolute errors. What is the maximum possible error in A ± B? Show that if Z = \(\frac{A}{B}\)
\(\frac{\Delta Z}{Z}=\frac{\Delta A}{A}+\frac{\Delta B}{B}\)
Answer:
Maximum possible error in (A ± B) is (∆A + ∆B).
Errors in divisions:
i) A
Suppose, Z = \(\frac{A}{B}\) and measured values of A and B are (A ± ∆A) and (B ± ∆B) then,


∴ Maximum relative error of \(\frac{\Delta Z}{Z}=\pm\left(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{A}}{\mathrm{A}}+\frac{\Delta \mathrm{B}}{\mathrm{B}}\right)\)

ii) Thus, when two quantities are divided, the maximum relative error in the result is the sum of relative errors in each quantity.

Question 6.
Derive the formula for kinetic energy of a particle having mass m and velocity v using dimensional analysis
Answer:
Kinetic energy of a body depends upon mass (m) and velocity (v) of the body.
Let K.E. ∝ m^x v^y
∴ K.E. = km^x v^y …….. (1)
where,
k = dimensionless constant of proportionality. Taking dimensions on both sides of equation (1),
[L²M¹T^-2] – [L⁰M¹T⁰]^x [L¹M⁰T^-1]^y
= [L⁰M^xT⁰] [L^yM⁰T^-y]
= [L^0+yM^x+0T^0-y]
[L²M¹T²] = [L^yM^xT^-y] …………. (2)
Equating dimensions of L, M, T on both sides of equation (2),
x = 1 and y = 2 ,
Substituting x, y in equation (1), we have
K.E. = kmv²

3. Solve numerical examples.

Question 1.
The masses of two bodies are measured to be 15.7 ± 0.2 kg and 27.3 ± 0.3 kg. What is the total mass of the two and the error in it?
Answer:
Given: A ± ∆A = 15.7 ± 0.2kg and
B ± ∆B = 27.3 ± 0.3 kg.
To find: Total mass (Z), and total error (∆Z)
Formulae: i. Z = A + B

ii) ±∆Z = ±∆A ± ∆B
Calculation: From formula (i),
Z = 15.7 + 27.3 = 43 kg
From formula (ii),
± ∆Z (± 0.2) + (± 0.3)
=±(0.2 + 0.3)
= ± 0.5 kg
Total mass is 43 kg and total error is ± 0.5 kg.

Question 2.
The distance travelled by an object in time (100 ± 1) s is (5.2 ± 0.1) m. What is the speed and it’s relative error?
Answer:
Given: Distance (D ± ∆D) = (5.2 ± 0.1) m,
time(t ± ∆t) = (100 ± 1)s.
To find: Speed (v), maximum relative error \(\left(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{v}}{\mathrm{v}}\right)\)

Formulae: i. v = \(\frac{\mathrm{D}}{\mathrm{t}}\)
ii. \(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{v}}{\mathrm{v}}=\pm\left(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{D}}{\mathrm{D}}+\frac{\Delta \mathrm{t}}{\mathrm{t}}\right)\)

Calculation: From formula (i),
v = \(\frac{5.2}{100}\) = 0.052 m/s
From formula (ii),
\(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{v}}{\mathrm{v}}=\pm\left(\frac{0.1}{5.2}+\frac{1}{100}\right)\)
= \(\pm\left(\frac{1}{52}+\frac{1}{100}\right)=\pm \frac{19}{650}\)
= ± 0.029 rn/s
The speed is 0.052 m/s and its maximum relative error is ± 0.029 m/s.
[Note: Framing of numerical is modified to make it specific and meaningful.]

Question 3.
An electron with charge e enters a uniform. magnetic field \(\vec{B}\) with a velocity \(\vec{v}\). The velocity is perpendicular to the magnetic field. The force on the charge e is given by
|\(\vec{F}\)| = Bev Obtain the dimensions of \(\vec{B}\).
Answer:
Given: |\(\vec{F}\)| = B e v
Considering only magnitude, given equation is simplified to,
F = B e v

∴ B = [L⁰M¹T^-2I^-1]
[Note: The answer given above is calculated in accordance with textual method considering the given data.]

Question 4.
A large ball 2 m in radius is made up of a rope of square cross section with edge length 4 mm. Neglecting the air gaps in the ball, what is the total length of the rope to the nearest order of magnitude?
Answer:
Volume of ball = Volume enclosed by rope.
\(\frac{4}{3}\) π (radius)³ = Area of cross-section of rope × length of rope.
∴ length of rope l = \(\frac{\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}}{A}\)
Given:
r = 2 m and
Area = A = 4 × 4 = 16 mm²
= 16 × 10^-6 m²
∴ l = \(\frac{4 \times 3.142 \times 2^{3}}{3 \times 16 \times 10^{-6}}\)
= \(\frac{3.142 \times 2}{3}\) × 10^-6 m
≈ 2 × 10⁶ m.
Total length of rope to the nearest order of magnitude = 10⁶ m = 10³ km

Question 5.
Nuclear radius R has a dependence on the mass number (A) as R = 1.3 × 10^-16 A^{\(\frac{1}{3}\)} m. For a nucleus of mass number A=125, obtain the order of magnitude of R expressed in metre.
Answer:
R= 1.3 × 10^-16 × A^{\(\frac{1}{3}\)} m
For A = 125
R= 1.3 × 10^-16 × (125)^{\(\frac{1}{3}\)}
= 1.3 × 10^-16 × 5
= 6.5 × 10^-16
= 0.65 × 10^-15 m
∴ Order of magnitude = -15
[Note: Taking the standard value of nuclear radius R = 1.3 × 10^-155 m, the order of magnitude comes to be 10^-14 m.]

Question 6.
In a workshop a worker measures the length of a steel plate with a Vernier callipers having a least count 0.01 cm. Four such measurements of the length yielded the following values: 3.11 cm, 3.13 cm, 3.14 cm, 3.14 cm.

From formula (iii).
% error = \(\frac{0.01}{3.13}\) × 100
= \(\frac{1}{3.13}\)
= 0.3196
……..(using reciprocal table)
= 0.32%

i. Mean length is 3.13 cm.

∆a₂ = |6.145 – 6.09| = 0.055
∆a₃ = |6.145 – 6.22| = 0.075
∆a₄ = |6.l45 – 6.15| = 0.005
From formula (iii),
∆a_mean = \(\frac{0.025+0.055+0.075+0.005}{4}=\frac{0.160}{4}\)
= 0.04 Ω
From formula (iv),
Relative error = \(\frac{0.04}{6.145}\) = 0.0065 Ω
From formula (v).
Percentage error = 0.0065 \frac{0.04}{6.145} 100 = 0.65%

Question 9.
An object is falling freely under the gravitational force. Its velocity after travelling a distance h is v. If v depends upon gravitational acceleration g and distance, prove with dimensional analysis that v = k\(\sqrt{g h}\) where k is a constant.
Answer:
Given = v = k\(\sqrt{g h}\)

k being constant is assumed to be dimensionless.
Dimensions of L.H.S. = [v] = [L¹T^-1]
Dimension of R.H.S. = [latex]\sqrt{g h}[/latex]
= [L¹T^-2]^{\(\frac{1}{2}\)} × [L¹]^{\(\frac{1}{2}\)}
= [L²T^-2]^{\(\frac{1}{2}\)}
= [L¹T^-1]
As, [L.H.S.] = [R.H.S.],
=> v = k\(\sqrt{g h}\)is dimensionally correct equation.

Question 10.
v = at + \(\frac{b}{t+c}\) + v₀ is a dimensionally valid equation. Obtain the dimensional formula for a, b and c where v is velocity, t is time and v₀ is initial velocity.
Answer:
Solution: Given: y = at + \(\frac{b}{t+c}\) + + v₀

As only dimensionally identical quantities can be added together or subtracted from each other, each term on R.H.S. has dimensions of L.H.S. i.e., dimensions of velocity.

∴ [LH.S.] = [v] = [L¹T^-1]
This means, [at] = [v] = [L¹T^-1]
Given, t = time has dimension [T^-1]
∴ [a] = \(\frac{\left[\mathrm{L}^{1} \mathrm{~T}^{-1}\right]}{[\mathrm{t}]}=\frac{\left[\mathrm{L}^{1} \mathrm{~T}^{-1}\right]}{\left[\mathrm{T}^{1}\right]}\) = [L¹T^-2] = L¹M⁰T^-2]
Similarly, [c] = [t] = [T¹] = [L⁰M⁰T¹]
∴ \(\frac{[\mathrm{b}]}{\left[\mathrm{T}^{1}\right]}\) = [v] = [L¹T^-1]
∴ [b] = [L¹T^-1] × [T¹] = [L¹] = [L¹M⁰T⁰]

Question 11.
The length, breadth and thickness of a rectangular sheet of metal are 4.234 m, 1.005 m, and 2.01 cm respectively. Give the area and volume of the sheet to correct significant figures.
Answer:
Given: l = 4.234 m, b = 1.005 m,
t = 2.01 cm = 2.01 × 10^-2 m = 0.0201 m

To find:
i) Area of sheet to correct significant figures (A)
ii) Volume of sheet to correct significant figures (V)
Formulae: i. A = 2(lb + bt + tl)
iii) V = l × b × t

Calculation: From formula (i),
A = 2(4.234 × 1.005 + 1.005 × 0.0201 +0.0201 × 4.234)
= 2 |[antilog(log 4.234 + logl .005) + antiiog(log 1.005 + log0.0201) + antilog(log 0.0201 + log 4.234)]}
= 2{[antilog(0.6267 + 0.0021) + antilog(0.0021 + \(\overline{2}\) .3010) + antilog (\(\overline{2}\) .3010 + 0.6267)]}
= 2 {[antilog(0.6288) + antilog (\(\overline{2}[/latex .3031) +antilog([latex]\overline{2}\) .9277)]}
= 2 [4.254 + 0.02009 + 0.08467]
= 2 [4.35876]
= 8.71752m²

In correct significant figure,
A = 8.72 m2 From formula (ii),
V =4.234 × 1.005 × 0.0201
= antilog [log (4.234) + log (1.005) + log (0.0201)]
= antilog [0.6269 – 0.0021 – \(\overline{2}\).3032]
= antilog [0.6288 – \(\overline{2}\).3032]
= antilog [ 2 .9320]
= 8.551 × 10^-2
= 0.08551 m³
In correct significant figure (rounding off),
V = 0.086 m³

i.) Area of sheet to correct significant figures is 8.72 m².
ii) Volume of sheet to correct significant figures is 0.086 m³.
[Note: The given solution is arrived to by considering a rectangular sheet.]

Answer:
Given: l = (4.00 ± 0.001) cm,
In order to have same precision, we use, (4.000 ± 0.001),
r = (0.0250 ± 0.00 1) cm,
In order to have same precision, we use, (0.025 ± 0.001)
m = (6.25 ± 0.01) g
To find: percentage error in density

Formulae:
i) Relative error in volume, \(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{V}}=\frac{2 \Delta \mathrm{r}}{\mathrm{r}}+\frac{\Delta l}{l}\)
….(∵ Volume of cylinder, V = πr²l)

ii) Releative error \(\frac{\Delta \rho}{\rho}=\frac{\Delta m}{m}+\frac{\Delta V}{V}\)

iii) Percentage error= Relative error × 100%

Calculation.
From formulae (i) and (ii),
∴ \(\frac{\Delta \rho}{\rho}=\frac{\Delta \mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{m}}+\frac{2 \Delta \mathrm{r}}{\mathrm{r}}+\frac{\Delta l}{l}\)
= \(\frac{0.01}{6.25}+\frac{2(0.001)}{0.025}+\frac{0.001}{4.000}\)
= 0.00 16 + 0.08 + 0.00025
= 0.08 185
From formula (iii).
% error in density = \(\frac{\Delta \rho}{\rho}\) × 100
= 0.08185 × 100
= 8.185%
Percentage error in density is 8.185%.

Answer:
Volume of sphere = \(\frac{4}{3}\) πr³
= \(\frac{4}{3}\) × 3.142 × (\(\frac{2.14}{2}\))³ ………….. (∵ r = \(\frac{d}{2}\))
= \(\frac{4}{3}\) × 3.142 × (1.07)³
= 1.333 × 3.142 × (1.07)³
= {antilog [log (1.333) + log(3.142)+3 log(1.07)]}
= {antilog [0.1249 + 0.4972 + 3 (0.0294)])
= {antilog [0.6221 + 0.0882]}
= {antilog [0.7103]}
= 5.133cm³
In multiplication or division, the final result should retain as many significant figures as there are in the original number with the least significant figures.

Question 1.
If ten students are asked to measure the length of a piece of cloth upto a mm, using a metre scale, do you think their answers will be identical? Give reasons.
Answer:
Answers of the students are likely to be different. Length of cloth needs to be measured up to a millimetre (mm) length. Hence, to obtain accurate and precise reading one must use measuring instrument having least count smaller than 1 mm.

But least count of metre scale is 1 mm. As a result, even smallest uncertainty in reading would vary reading significantly. Also, skill of students doing measurement may also introduce uncertainty in observation.
Hence, their answers are likely to be different.
