Question:6.1

A square of side L meters lies in the x-y plane in a region, where the magnetic field is given by $B=B_o(2i+3j+4k)T$ where Bo is constant. The magnitude of flux passing through the square is
$(a)2B_o{L}^{2}Wb.$
$(b)3B_o{L}^{2}Wb.$
$(c)4B_o{L}^{2}Wb.$
$(d)\sqrt{}29B_o{L}^{2}Wb.$

Question:6.2

A loop, made of straight edges has six corners at $A(0,0,0),B(L,O,0)C(L,L,0),D(0,L,0)E(0,L,L)andF(0,0,L)$. A magnetic field B $=B_o(i+k)T$is present in the region. The flux passing through the loop ABCDEFA (in that order) is

$(a)B_o{L}^{2}Wb.$
$(b)2B_o{L}^{2}Wb.$
$(c)\sqrt{}2B_o{L}^{2}Wb.$
$(d)4B_o{L}^{2}Wb.$

Answer:
In this problem first we have to analyse area vector, loop ABCDA lies in x-y plane whose area vector $\overrightarrow{A_1}=L^2\hat{k}$ whereas loop ADEFA lies in y-z plane whose area vector $\overrightarrow{A_2}=L^2\hat{i}$
And magnetic flux is
$$\begin{gathered} {\varphi }_m=\overrightarrow{B}.\overrightarrow{A} \\ \overrightarrow{A}=\overrightarrow{A_1}+\overrightarrow{A_2}=(L^2\hat{k}+L^2\hat{i}) \\ and\overrightarrow{B}=B_0(\hat{i}+\hat{k}) \\ Now,{\varphi }_m=\overrightarrow{B}.\overrightarrow{A}=B_0(\hat{i}+\hat{k}).(L^2\hat{k}+L^2\hat{i}) \\ =2B_0{L}^{2}Wb \end{gathered}$$

Question:6.3

A cylindrical bar magnet is rotated about its axis. A wire is connected from the axis and is made to touch the cylindrical surface through a contact. Then

(a) a direct current flows in the ammeter A.
(b) no current flows through the ammeter A.
(c) an alternating sinusoidal current flows through the ammeter A with a time period T=2π/ω.

Answer:

Question:6.4

There are two coils A and B as shown in figure. A current starts flowing in B as shown when A is moved towards B and stops when A stops moving. The current in A is counter clockwise. B is kept stationary when A moves. We can infer that
(a) there is a constant current in the clockwise direction in A.
(b) there is a varying current in A.
(c) there is no current in A.
(d) there is a constant current in the counter clockwise direction in A.

Answer:

Question:6.5

Same as problem 4 except the coil A is made to rotate about a vertical axis. No current flows in B if A is at rest. The current in coil A, when the current in B (at t = 0) is counterclockwise and the coil A is as shown at this instant, t = 0, is
(a) constant current clockwise.
(b) varying current clockwise.
(c) varying current counterclockwise.

Answer:

Question:6.6

The self-inductance L of a solenoid of length l and area of cross-section A, with a fixed number of turns N increases as
(a) l and A increase.
(b) l decreases and A increases.
(c) l increases and A decreases.
(d) both l and A decrease.

Answer:

$L=\frac{\left({\mu }_r{\mu }_0{n}^2\right)}{I}$
So, from the equation, the inductance should increase as l decreases and A increases. As, L is inversely proportional to l and directly proportional to A.

Question:6.8

Answer:

Question:6.9

The mutual inductance M₁₂ of coil 1 with respect to coil 2
(a) increases when they are brought nearer
(b) depends on the current passing through the coils
(c) increases when one of them is rotated about an axis
(d) is the same as M₂₁ of coil 2 with respect to coil 1

Answer:

According to Faraday's second law emf induces in secondary $e_2=-N_2\frac{d{\varphi }_2}{dt};e_2=-M\frac{d{i}_1}{dt}$

The mutual inductance M₁₂ of coil 1 wrt coil 2 increases when they are brought nearer and is the same as M₂₁ of coil with respect to coil 1.
M₁₂ e.g. mutual inductance of solenoid S₁ with respected to solenoid S₂ is given by

$M_{12}=\frac{{\mu }_0{N}_1{N}_2\pi {r_1}^2}{l}$

Where signs are as usual,

Also, M21, i.e. mutual inductance of solenoid S₂ with respect to solenoid S₁ is given by:

$M_{21}=\frac{{\mu }_0{N}_1{N}_2\pi {r_1}^2}{l}$

So we have $M_{12}=M_{21}=M$

Question:10

A circular coil expands radially in a region of magnetic field and no electromotive force is produced in the coil. This can be because
(a) the magnetic field is constant.
(b) the magnetic field is in the same plane as the circular coil and it may or may not vary.
(c) the magnetic field has a perpendicular (to the plane of the coil) component whose magnitude is decreasing suitably.
(d) there is a constant magnetic field in the perpendicular (to the plane of the coil) direction.
