प्रश्न

Calculate the solid angle subtended by the periphery of an area of 1 cm2 at a point situated symmetrically at a distance of 5 cm from the area.

टिप्पणी लिखिए

उत्तर

Solid angle, Ω = `"Area"/("Radial distance")^2`

= `(1  cm^2)/(5  cm)^2`

= `1/25`

= 4 × 10–2 steradian  ......(∵ Area = 1 cm2, distance = 5 cm)

Important point: Please keep in mind that a solid angle is for 3-D figures like spheres, cones etc and a plane angle is for plane objects or 2-D figures like circles, arcs etc.

A famous relation in physics relates ‘moving mass’ m to the ‘rest mass’ m0 of a particle in terms of its speed v and the speed of light, c. (This relation first arose as a consequence of special relativity due to Albert Einstein). A boy recalls the relation almost correctly but forgets where to put the constant c. He writes:

`m = m_0/(1-v^2)^(1/2)`

Guess where to put the missing c.
