1. A long wire carries a steady current, I. First it is bent into a circular coil of one turn when the magnetic field induction at the centre is B0. Then the same wire is bent to form a circular coil of smaller radius but n turns then find the magnetic field induction at the centre of the circular coil. (n2 B0) 2. Magnetic field at the centre of a circular loop of area A carrying a current I is B. What is the magnetic 2 BA moment of this loop? ( μ √A/Π ) 3. Two parallel co-axial circular coils of equal radius R and equal number of turns N carry equal currents I in the same direction and are separated by a distance 2R. Find the magnitude and direction of the net magnetic field μI produced at the mid- point of the line joining their centres. ( 2 √2 R ) 4. How will the magnetic field strength at the centre of the circular coil carrying a current change, if the current through the coil is doubled and the radius is halved? (B’= 4B) 5. A circular coil of N turns and diameter d carries a current I. It is unwound and rewound to make another coil of diameter 2d, current remaining the same. Calculate the ratio of the magnetic moments of the new coil and the original coil. (2) 6. Calculate the magnetic field due to a circular coil of 250 turns and of diameter 0.1 m, carrying a current of 7A (i) at the centre of the coil (ii) at a point on the axis of the coil at a distance of 0.12 m from the centre of the coil.

An electron is passing through a field but no force is acting on it. Under what conditions is it possible, if the motion of the electron be in the (i) electric field (ii) magnetic field. 12. A galvanometer gives a full-scale deflection with current Ig. Can it be converted into an ammeter of range I˂ Ig. Justify your answer. 13. (a) A current carrying loop is located in a uniform external magnetic field. If the loop is free to turn, what is its orientation of stable equilibrium? Show that in this orientation, the flux of the total field (external field+ field produced by the loop) is maximum. (b) Write the relation for the force F acting on a charge q moving with a velocity v through a magnetic field B in vector notation. Using this relation, deduce the conditions under which this force will be (i) maximum (ii)minimum. 14. (a) Increasing the current sensitivity of a galvanometer may not necessarily increase its voltage sensitivity. Justify this statement. (b) Which of the two an ammeter or a milliammeter, has a higher resistance and why? 15. By mistake, a voltmeter is connected in series and an ammeter is connected in parallel, with a resistance in an electrical circuit. What will happen to the instruments? Explain. 16. A long straight conductor PQ, carrying a current of 60 A, is fixed horizontally. Another long conductor XY is kept parallel to PQ at a distance of 4mm in air. Conductor XY is free to move and carries a current I. Calculate the magnitude and direction of current I for which the magnetic repulsion just balances the weight of the conductor XY (Mass per unit length for conductor XY is 10-2 kg/m). (32.67A) 17. Two long parallel straight wires X and Y separated by a distance 5 cm in air carry currents of 10 A and 5A respectively in opposite directions.

A short conductor of length 5 cm is placed parallel to a long conductor of length 1.5 cm near its centre. The conductors carry currents of 4 A and 3 A respectively in the same direction. What is the total force experienced by the long conductor, when they are 3 cm apart? (4x10-6 N; Attractive) 19. A circular coil of 200 turns, radius 5 cm carries a current of 2.5 A. It is suspended vertically in a uniform horizontal magnetic field of 0.25 T, with the plane of the coil making an angle of 60° with the field lines.
