Answer
a) Reading shown by the voltmeter
Given:
- Resistor
- Resistor
- Supply voltage
- Voltmeter internal resistance
Circuit Analysis: The voltmeter is connected across the resistor, so it is in parallel with . The equivalent resistance of the parallel combination is:
Now, the total resistance of the circuit is:
Current in the circuit:
Voltage across the parallel combination (which is the voltmeter reading):
Final Answer: The voltmeter reading is (≈ 28.57 V).
b) Ratio of deflections of two galvanometers
Given:
- Galvanometer 1: turns,
- Galvanometer 2: turns,
- Cell emf
- Internal resistance
Theory: The deflection of a galvanometer is proportional to the current flowing through it:
The current in each galvanometer is given by:
where is the resistance of the galvanometer.
Calculating currents:
For Galvanometer 1:
For Galvanometer 2:
Ratio of deflections:
Since deflection is proportional to current:
Final Answer: The ratio of the deflections is (≈ 10.83).
c) Instantaneous induced emf in the coil
Given: Magnetic flux (in weber), where is in seconds.
Theory: The induced emf is given by Faraday’s law:
Differentiating with respect to :
At :
Magnitude of induced emf:
Final Answer: The magnitude of the instantaneous induced emf at is 21 V.
