V= 1.5 V when I = 0.0 A (iii) Electromotive force, e.m.f
(d) The connection to the circuit must be neat and tidy, also avoid parallax error. Section B 1 (a) Inference The velocity of the swing increases if the height from which it is released increases, (b) Hypothesis: As the height of release of the swing increases, the velocity of the swing increases. (c) Aim of the experiment: To determine the relationship between the height, h with the velocity, v for a trolley, Variables in the experiment: Manipulated variable: The height of the trolley, h Responding variable: Velocity of the trolley, v Constant variable: The inclination of the track plane and mass of the trolley and the power supply. Apparatus and materials: Wooden blocks of the same size, ticker-timer, trolley, ticker tape, wooden track and a power supply. Arrangement of apparatus:
Procedure: The apparatus is arranged as shown in the figure. An inclined track is prepared and the ticker-timer is placed at the edge of the trolley. The trolley is then placed on the inclined track at a height of h = 10 cm from the surface of the table. The power switch is switched on and the trolley released so that it rolls down the track. The power switch is switched off as soon as the trolley reaches the edge of the track. Based on the ticker tape reading, the velocity of the trolley is calculated, taking into consideration the last 10 dots. This experiment is repeated using values of h = 15.0 cm, 20.0 cm, 25.0 cm and 30.0 cm. The corresponding values for v for every value of h is calculated. The data is tabulated as shown below. h/cm v/cm s-1 10.0 15.0 20.0 25.0 30.0 A graph of velocity, v against h is plotted.
From the graph, it is concluded that the velocity, v increases as the height, h increases. 2 (a) Inference: The velocity of the sea waves changes when the waves approach an area which is shallow. (b) Hypothesis: The velocity of the refracted waves is smaller than the velocity of the incident waves. (c) Aim of the experiment: To study the relationship between the velocity of refracted waves with the velocity of incident waves. Variables in the experiment: Manipulated variable: Depth of water. Responding variable: Wavelength, X
Apparatus and materials: Power source, ripple tank, a transpareplate, stroboscope, a piece of white meter rule, wooden bar fitted [Link] motor. Arrangement of the apparatus:
Procedure: The transparent plate is placed at the edg of the ripple tank so that water on top of it surface is the region of shallow water. Th image of the plane waves in the region of dee water and shallow water is observed throng a stroboscope that freezes the propagation ( the wave s . U si n g a me tr e r ul e , th wavelength of the wave in the deep regio and the shallow water region is measure( Experiment is repeated by increasing th depth of the water. Results of the experiment: Depth of shallow water region
The wavelength of water in the deep- water region is higher as compared to the wavelength of water in shallow water region.
