43. Under the influence of the Coulomb field of charge +Q, a charge –q is moving around it in an elliptical orbit.
Find out the correct statement(s).
Sol. (A)
Torque about Q of charge –q is zero, so angular momentum charge –q is constant, but distance between
charges is changing, so force is changing, so speed and velocity are changing.

method. Two resonances in the air-column were obtained by lowering the water level. The resonance with the
shorter air-column is the first resonance and that with the longer air-column is the second resonance. Then,
(A) the intensity of the sound heard at the first resonance was more than that at the second resonance
(B) the prongs of the tuning fork were kept in a horizontal plane above the resonance tube
(C) the amplitude of vibration of the ends of the prongs is typically around 1 cm
(D) the length of the air-column at the first resonance was somewhat shorter than 1/4th of the wavelength of
the sound in air.
Sol. (A, D)
(A) The intensity of second decreases with increases of order. The intensity of
sound is maximum for first resonance.
(B) The prongs vibrate in vertical plane.
(C) The prongs does not vibrate in amplitude of that order.
(D) Consider end correction, the length of air column is slightly less than /4
