Consider the situation shown in the figure. The wire AB is sliding on the fixed rails with a constant velocity. If the wire AB is replaced by a semicircular wire, the magnitude of the induced current will:
1. | increase. |
2. | remain the same. |
3. | decrease. |
4. | increase or decrease depending on whether the semicircle bulges towards the resistance or away from it. |
1. | directly proportional to \(i\). |
2. | directly proportional to \(R\). |
3. | directly proportional to \(R^2\). |
4. | Zero. |
A small square loop of wire of side l is placed inside a large square loop of wire of side L (L > l). The loop are coplanar and their centre coincide. The mutual inductance of the system is proportional to
(1) l / L
(2) l2 / L
(3) L/l
(4) L2/l
A uniform but time-varying magnetic field \(B(t)\) exists in a circular region of radius \(a\) and is directed into the plane of the paper, as shown. The magnitude of the induced electric field at point \(P\) at a distance \(r\) from the centre of the circular region:
1. is zero
2. decreases as \(\frac{1}{r}\)
3. increases as \(r\)
4. decreases as \(\frac{1}{r^2}\)
Two circular coils can be arranged in any of the three situations shown in the figure. Their mutual inductance will be:
1. | maximum in the situation (A). |
2. | maximum in the situation (B). |
3. | maximum in the situation (C). |
4. | the same in all situations. |
A conducting rod of length \(2l\) is rotating with constant angular speed \(\omega\) about its perpendicular bisector. A uniform magnetic field \(\vec {B}\) exists parallel to the axis of rotation. The emf induced between the two ends of the rod is:
1. \(B\omega l^2\)
2. \(\frac{1}{2} B \omega l^{2}\)
3. \(\frac{1}{8} B \omega l^{2}\)
4. zero
As shown in the figure, P and Q are two coaxial conducting loops separated by some distance. When the switch S is closed, a clockwise current IP flows in P (as seen by E) and an induced current flows in Q. The switch remains closed for a long time. When S is opened, a current flows in Q. Then the directions of and (as seen by E) are
(1) Respectively clockwise and anticlockwise
(2) Both clockwise
(3) Both anticlockwise
(4) Respectively anticlockwise and clockwise
A conducting wireframe is placed in a magnetic field that is directed into the paper. The magnetic field is increasing at a constant rate. The directions of induced current in wires AB and CD are
(1) B to A and D to C
(2) A to B and C to D
(3) A to B and D to C
(4) B to A and C to D
A conductor ABOCD moves along its bisector with a velocity of \(1\) m/s through a perpendicular magnetic field of \(1~\text{wb/m}^2\), as shown in fig. If all the four sides are of \(1\) m length each, then the induced emf between points A and D is:
1. \(0\)
2. \(1.41\) volt
3. \(0.71\) volt
4. None of the above
A conducting rod PQ of length L = 1.0 m is moving with a uniform speed v = 2 m/s in a uniform magnetic field B = 4.0 T directed into the paper. A capacitor of capacity C = 10 μF is connected as shown in figure. Then
(1) qA = + 80 μC and qB = – 80 μC
(2) qA = – 80 μC and qB = + 80 μC
(3) qA = 0 = qB
(4) Charge stored in the capacitor increases exponentially with time
