How might you clarify the higher soundness of BCl3 when contrasted with TlCl3?
Solution: Thallium and boron have a place with bunch 13 of the intermittent table and +1 oxidation state turns out to be more steady as we drop down the gathering. Boron is more steady than thallium...
An electron enters with a velocity v = v0i into a cubical region in which there are uniform electric and magnetic fields. The orbit of the electron is found to spiral down inside the cube in the plane parallel to the x-y plane. Suggest a configuration of fields E and B that can lead to it.
The spiral route is formed by the fields E and B in their current configuration.
A current-carrying loop consists of 3 identical quarter circles of radius R, lying in the positive quadrants of the x-y, y-z, and z-x planes with their centres at the origin, joined together. Find the direction and magnitude of B at the origin.
The quarter's vector sum of the magnetic field at the origin is given as \({{\vec{B}}_{net}}=\frac{1}{4}\left( \frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{2R} \right)(\widehat{i}+\widehat{j}+\widehat{k})\)
Describe the motion of a charged particle in a cyclotron if the frequency of the radio frequency (rf) field were doubled.
The time period of the radio frequency is halved when the frequency is doubled, resulting in a half revolution of the charges.
Two identical current-carrying coaxial loops, carry current I in an opposite sense. A simple amperian loop passes through both of them once. Calling the loop as C, a)b) the value ofc) there may be a point on C where B and dl are perpendicular d) B vanishes everywhere on C
b) the value of \(\oint\limits_{c}{B.dl\) is independent of sense of C c) there may be a point on C where B and dl are perpendicular
The gyro-magnetic ratio of an electron in an H-atom, according to Bohr model is a) independent of which orbit it is in b) negative c) positive d) increases with the quantum number n
a) independent of which orbit it is in b) negative
