Q.1 a. Proof of differential equation of wave motion. 6

b. Piezoelectric and magnetostriction effects with diagram 4
Numerical 2
Given ρ = 7.25 X 103 kg/m3 , Y = 115 X 109 N/m2

f = n/ 2l √ Y/ ρ

f = 1/ 2 X 40 X 10-3 [ 115 X 109 / 7.25 X 103 ]1/2

f = 49.75 KHz

Q.2 a. Ray diagram 1

Derivation for optical path difference ∆ = 2µtcosθ±λ/2 3
Conditions for Maxima and Minima 2
b. Double Refraction expalnation with figure 2
Difference bet o ray and e ray atleast 4 points 4
c. Expalnation of population inversion and stimulated emission with figure 4
Numerical 2
μcore = 1.55 , μcladding = 1.50

NA = √ μcore2 - μcladding2
NA = 0.391

θ = sin √ NA

θ = 23.020

Q.3 a. Diagram 1
Principle and working of Bainbridge Mass Spectrograph 5
b. Derivation of wave equation 6

Q.4 a. Atomic radius definition 1

Calculation of atomic radii of sc,bcc,fcc with diagram 3
Numerical 2

r = a / 2√2

r = 4.95 / 2 x 1.414

r = 1.75 A0
 a. Derivation of 4
d = a / √ h2+k2+l2 with figure

Numerical 2
d = a / √ h2+k2+l2

d220 = 4.938 / √ 22+22+0

d220 = 1.746 A0
b. Definition of X-ray 1
