Magnetic Effects of Current

Question 21: difficult

A current I flows around a closed path in the horizontal plane of the circle as shown in the figure. The path consists of eight arcs with alternating radii r and 2r. Each segment of arc subtends equal angle at the common centre P. The magnetic field produced by current path at point P is

1. \[\frac{3}{8}\frac{\mu_{0}I}{R}\] ,perpendicular to the plane of the paper and directed inward.
2. \[\frac{3}{8}\frac{\mu_{0}I}{R}\] , perpendicular to the plane of the paper and directed outward.
3. \[\frac{1}{8}\frac{\mu_{0}I}{R}\] , perpendicular to the plane of the paper and directed inward.
4. \[\frac{1}{8}\frac{\mu_{0}I}{R}\] , perpendicular to the plane of the paper and directed outward.

Question 22: easy

If a long hollow copper pipe carries a direct current, the magnetic field associated with the current will be :

1. only inside the pipe
2. only outside the pipe
3. both inside and outside the pipe
4. neither inside nor outside the pipe
View Answer

Inside the pipe current enclosed will be zero so magnetic field will also be zero. Outside the pipe there will be net Magnetic field

Question 23: easy

In a co-axial straight cable, the central conductor and the outer conductor have equal currents in opposite directions. The magnetic induction is zero :

1. inside the inner conductor
2. inside the outer conductor
3. in between the two conductors
4. outside the outer conductors
View Answer

As outside the conductor net current enclosed is zero. using ampere circuital law Magnetic field is also zero.

Question 24: easy

A solenoid consists of 100 turns of wire and has a length of 10.0cm. The magnetic field inside the solenoid when it carries a current of 0.500 A will be :

1. \[6.28\times 10^{-4} T\]
2. \[6.28\times 10^{-5} T\]
3. \[3.14\times 10^{-4} T\]
4. none of these
View Answer

\[ B= \mu_{0}ni \] where n is number of turns per unit length

n= 100/0.1=1000

i=0.5

substituting we get \[ B = 6.28\times 10^{-4} T\]

Question 25: moderate

In the adjacent figure is shown a closed path P. A long straight conductor carrying a current I passes through O and perpendicular to the plane of the paper. Then which of the following holds good ?

 

 

1. \[\int_{P}^{}\overrightarrow{B}.\overrightarrow{dl}=0\]
2. \[\int_{P}^{}\overrightarrow{B}.\overrightarrow{dl}=\mu_{0}I\]
3. \[\int_{P}^{}\overrightarrow{B}.\overrightarrow{dl}>\mu_{0}I\]
4. None of these
View Answer

As Current enclosed is zero.  \[\int_{P}^{}\overrightarrow{B}.\overrightarrow{dl}=0\]

1. \[\frac{\pi qfR^{2}}{2}\]
2. πqfR²
3. 2πqfR²
4. 4πqfR²

difference, enter a region of uniform magnetic field and describe circular paths of radii R1 and
R2 respectively. The ratio of masses of X and Y is :

1. \[\left( R_{1}/R_{2} \right)^{1/2}\]
2. \[\left( R_{2}/R_{1} \right)\]
3. \[\left( R_{1}/R_{2} \right)^{2}\]
4. \[\left( R_{1}/R_{2} \right)\]
