    SCHOOL OF PHYSICS AND MATERIALS SCIENCE
    Mid-Semester Examination, March/April 2022
    Course Code: UPH004 Course Name: Applied Physics
    Time: 2 Hours; MM: 35 Course Coordinator: Dr. Dwijendra Pratap Singh
    Instructors: Dr. D P Singh, Dr. D K Singh, Dr. P Uniyal, Dr. Raj Kumar, Dr. S Marik, Dr. S K Mahatha, Dr. S Kashyap
    Note: Attempt any five questions out of seven. Assume missing data if any, suitably. All the symbols have their
    usual meaning.
    Q1 a) Write down the general solution of the differential equation describing the motion of
    an undamped spring-mass oscillator. Use the solution to show that the total energy of the
    oscillator is independent of time. Plot the kinetic and potential energies as a function of (1+3+1)+2
    position.
    b) Consider two identical spring-mass oscillators. Is the statement "if the masses of the
    two oscillators are pulled aside by the distances of 2A and 3A, respectively, the frequency
    of oscillation will be different upon their release" true? Justify your answer.
    Q2 a) Consider a damped spring-mass oscillator of mass m and spring constant k. It is given (3+1+1)+2
    that the power loss of the oscillator due to damping is proportional to the square of speed
    with the constant of proportionality being b. Derive the differential equation to describe
    the motion of the oscillator. Write the conditions and plot the displacements from the
    equilibrium point as a function of time for the underdamped, critically damped, and
    overdamped cases.
    b) It is observed that the relaxation time for a damped spring-mass oscillator is 0.5 s when
    the mass is 1.8 kg. Find the frequency of oscillation if the spring constant is 32 N/m.
    Q3 a) Derive the differential equation for a damped electrical oscillator. 2+2+3
    b) What is logarithmic decrement? Derive the expression.
    c) Following specifications are given for an LCR circuit. L = 0.1 mH, C = 10 pf,
    R = 0.2 D. Whether the motion of the charge is oscillatory or not? If it is oscillatory,
    determine the frequency of oscillation.
    Q4 a) Explain the limitation of Sabine's formula for reverberation time. How can the 4+3
    limitation be overcome?
    b) A curtain of dimensions 5 ft x 5 ft is hung at the center of the reverberation chamber
    whose dimensions are 10 ft x 10 ft x 20 ft. If the reverberation time is 1 s and 1.5 s
    respectively, for two different sources of the sound of 40 W and 80 W respectively then
    calculate the average absorption coefficient of the room with the curtain. The velocity of
    sound is 1126 fl/s.
    Q5 a) Write down the conditions for an acoustically good hall. Suggest a method to estimate 5+2
    the absorption coefficient of a material.
    b) Is the statement true or false "A room covered with the soft porous surface will have a
    relatively larger reverberation time"? Justify your answer.
    Q6 a) What is the principle of a magnetostriction oscillator? Explain its working with a 5+2
    suitable diagram.
    b) Describe the application of ultrasonic waves in SONAR.
    Q7 a) Describe any four methods by which an ultrasonic wave can be detected? 4+3
    b) An ultrasonic generator has a quartz crystal vibrating at its fundamental frequency. The
    thickness of the crystal is 2 mm, the density is 2650 kg rrl-3, and Young's modulus is
    7.9 x 1010 Nm-2. Calculate the fundamental frequency of vibration. If the inductance value
    of the tank circuit of the generator is 5 mH, find the value of the capacitance under
    resonance.
