A long wire carrying a steady current is bent into a circular loop of one turn. The magnetic field at the centre of the loop is B. It is then bent into a circular coil of n turns. The magnetic field at the centre of this coil of n turns will be

2n2B
nB
n2B
2nB
Explanation:
circular loop diagram

$B = \dfrac{\mu_0i}{2R} = \dfrac{\mu_0i(2\pi)}{2l} = \dfrac{\mu_0\pi i}{2l}$

circular coil diagram

$B = \dfrac{\mu_0ni}{2r} = \dfrac{\mu_0ni}{2\left(\dfrac{l}{2n\pi}\right)} = \dfrac{n^2\mu_0\pi i}{2l} = n^2B$

A bar magnet is hung by a thin cotton thread in a uniform horizontal magnetic field and is in equilibrium state. The energy required to rotate it by 60º is W. Now the torque required to keep the magnet in this new position is

Answer

An electron is moving in a circular path under the influence of a transverse magnetic field of 3.57 × 10–2 T. If the value of e / m is 1.76 × 1011 C / kg, the frequency of revolution of the electron is

Answer

Which of the following combinations should be selected for better tuning of an L–C–R circuit used for communication?

Answer

A uniform magnetic field is restricted within a region of radius r. The magnetic field changes with time at a rate $\dfrac{d\overrightarrow{B}}{dt}$. Loop 1 of radius R > r encloses the region r and loop 2 of radius R is outside the region of magnetic field as shown in the figure below. Then the e.m.f. generated ismagnetic field loop
