Answer:
The line intergral of \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}} \cdot \mathrm{d} \overrightarrow{\mathrm{l}}\) around any closed path enclosing a surface is times the total steady current passing through the surface. Consider a straight conductor of infinite length in the plane of the paper. Let I be the current through it from X to Y. Let P be a point at a perpendicular distance r from the straight wire. Consider a circle of radius r around the wire passing through P as an amperian loop. The magnetic field \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) at P due to the current in wire is tangential to the circle. Hence the magnetic field \(d \vec{l}\) is parallel to the line element at P.

Answer:
Consider a resistance R, an inductor of self inductance L and a capacitor of capacitance C connected in series across an AC source. The applied voltage is given by,
v = v0 sin ωt ………….. 1
2nd PUC Physics Model Question Paper 3 with Answers 21
where, v is the instantaneous value, v0 is the peak value and ω = 2 πf, f being the frequency of AC.
If i be the instantaneous current at time t, the instantaneous voltages across R, L and C are respectively iR, iXL and iXC. The vector sum of the voltage amplitudes across R, L, C equals the amplitude v0 of the voltage applied.
Let VR, VLand VC be the voltage amplitudes across R, L and C respectively and y I0 the current ampli tude. Then VR = i0R is (VL– VC) in phase with i0.
VL = i0XL= i0(ωL) leads i0 by 90°
The current in a pure resistor is phase, with the voltage, whereas the current in a pure
VC = i0XC = i0(\(\frac{1}{\omega C}\)) lags behind i0 by 90°
The current in a pure resistor is phase with the voltage, whereas the current in a pure inductor lags the voltage by (\(\frac{\pi}{2}(\) rad. The current in a pure capacitor leads the voltage by (\(\frac{\pi}{2}(\) rad.
For vL > vC , phase angle Φ between the voltage and the current is positive.

Let N \(\hat{O}\)M = α ; NIM = β and N \(\hat{C}\) M = γ
From the triangle NOC,
i = α + β [exterior angle = sum of the interior opposite angle] from the triangle NIC, γ = α + β[exterior angle = sum of the interior opposite angle]
r = γ + β …(2)
From Snell’s law n1 sin i = n2 sin r
for small angle sin i = i and sin r = r
n1i = n1r
