PART B (3 x 6 =18 marks)

Calculate the difference in sound intensity

levels incident on the ears of the person at a
location illustrated in the figure if (i) point
source P1 alone is ON (ii) If the second
7
unrelated source P2 is also switched ON in
addition to P1 . (Ignore attenuation of sound
as it passes through the head)
(6 marks)

a What is an acoustic grating ? (2 marks)

8 Explain how to determine the velocity of ultrasonic waves using an acoustic grating with
b
relevant diagram (4 marks)
a Why is wave nature of moving objects not apparent in our everyday experience? (2 marks)

9 Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of 87Rb atom at a temperature of T=100 µK. Assume
b kinetic energy at temperature T is given by (3kBT/2 ) where kB =1.38x10-23 J/K and 1 amu =
1.6605x10-27 kg (4 marks)
PART C (2 x 10 = 20 marks)
What is NDT? Draw the block diagram of a ultrasonic pulse –echo flaw detection system and
10
explain its functioning (10 marks)
OR
11 Explain with relevant diagrams, the display modes used for obtaining a sonogram (10 marks)

Derive the expression for Plank's radiation law and arrive at its approximations for shorter and
12
longer wavelength regions. (10 marks)
OR
Obtain the solution of Schrodinger's equation for a particle in an infinite 1D potential well and
13
show that it leads to the quantization of energy. When will the energy levels become quasi
continuous? (10 marks)
