Carey Foster bridge is a variant of the Wheatstone Bridge. It is highly sensitive as it is used to measure the smallest decimal change in the resistance. The Carey Foster bridge sensitivity is directly proportional to the length of the wire used in the bridge.

A parallel beam of monochromatic light falls normally on a single slit of width $a$ and a diffraction pattern is observed on a screen placed at distance $D$ from the slit. Explain:
(I) the formation of maxima and minima in the diffraction pattern, and
(II) why the maxima go on becoming weaker and weaker with its increasing number $n$.
A rectangular loop of size 5 cm $\times$ 8 cm is lying in the $x$-$y$ plane in a uniform magnetic field $\vec{B} = (2.0\ \text{T})\hat{k}$. The total magnetic flux linked with the loop is:
A circular coil of 100 turns and radius $\left(\frac{10}{\sqrt{\pi}}\right)$ cm carrying current of $5.0\,\text{A}$ is suspended vertically in a uniform horizontal magnetic field of $2.0\,\text{T}$. The field makes an angle $30^\circ$ with the normal to the coil. Calculate:
(I) the magnetic dipole moment of the coil, and
(II) the magnitude of the counter torque that must be applied to prevent the coil from turning.
