Physics 202 Final ExamName­­­­­­­­­_____________________________________In problems 11-17, you will be graded on your work (with appropriate partial credit).Last 2 pages are formula sheet, which also has physical constants.Physics 202 Final Exam Name_____________________________________In problems 1-10, you will receive credit only for the correct answer (no partial credit). For fill-in-the-blank questions and problems, please place your answer in the indicated space. Be sure to include the correct units.For multiple choice questions and problems, circle the letter for the correct answer. If your calculated answer is not approximately equal to one of those given, then you should circle “none of the above”.In problems 11-17, you will be graded on your work (with appropriate partial credit).Last 2 pages are formula sheet, which also has physical constants.________________________________________________________________________1.

At what frequency f is the current a maximum?Answer___________________________________2. (5) In a 200 watt light bulb, the rate at which electrical energy is dissipated in the resistor (and transformed into light and heat) is 200 watts. If the current flowing through this resistoris 0.1 A, what is the value of its resistance, in Ω?Answer___________________________________3. (5) The wingspan (tip-to-tip) of a particular jet airplane is 60 m. The plane is flying horizontally at a speed of 280 m/s. The vertical component of the earth's magnetic field is5.0 ×10−6 T. Find the emf induced between the wing tips.Answer___________________________________4. (5) Circle the letters for all of the following statements that are true of electromagnetic waves.(a) The magnetic field is parallel to the direction of propagation..(b) The magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of propagation.(c) The electric field is parallel to the direction of propagation.(d) The electric field is perpendicular to the direction of propagation.(e) The electric field is parallel to the magnetic field.(f) The electric field is perpendicular to the magnetic field.(g) The electric field and magnetic field vary in phase with each other.(h) The electric field and magnetic field vary out of phase with each other by 90 o.5.

What is the value of the electric field atthe center of the cube?Answer___________________________________6. (5) An electric force moves a charge of 2.0 ×10−4 C from point A to point B, and performs12.0×10−2 J of work on the charge. What is the magnitude of the potential difference between these two points?Answer___________________________________7. (5) An electron moves vertically upward in a magnetic field that points vertically downward. The velocity of the electron is 20 000 m/s and the magnitude of the magnetic field is 4.5 T. What is the magnitude of the magnetic force on the electron?Answer___________________________________8. (5) The principal quantum number for an electron in an atom is 7, while the magnetic quantum number is 3. What possible values for the orbital (angular momentum) quantum number l could this electron have?Answer___________________________________9. (5) In the reaction 92238U→90234Th+24He the nuclear masses are respectively 238.0508 u, 234.0436 u, and 4.0026 u. What is the energy released, in MeV?Answer___________________________________10.

(14) A slit whose width is 6.0 ×10−5 m is located 4.0 m from a flat screen. Light shines through the slit and falls on the screen. Find the width of the central fringe of the diffraction pattern when the wavelength of the light is 550 nm.Answer___________________________________13. (14) We wish to measure the focal length of a converging lens. A bright lightbulb in a flashlight is held 0.6 m above the lens. The image of the filament in the bulb is brought to a sharp focus on a sheet of paper which is held 0.2 m below the lens. What is the focal length?Answer___________________________________14. (14) Bones of the wooly mammoth have been found in North America. The youngest of these bones has a 614C activity per gram of carbon that is about 21% of what it was in the live animal. The half life for 614Cis 5730 years. How long ago (in years) did this animal disappear from North America?Answer___________________________________15. (14) A metal surface has a work function of 4.20 eV. Ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 200 nm shines on this surface, and photoelectrons are emitted. Find the maximum energy of these emitted electrons, in eV.Answer___________________________________16. (15) Two charges are placed on the x axis. One charge (q1=+4.0μC) is at x1=1.0cm, and the other (q2=−2.0μC) is atx2=11.0cm. Find the net electric field (magnitude and direction) atx =6.0 cm. Answers: magnitude __________________________________________ direction ___________________________________________17.
