1 M a r k Questions
1. State two properties of the material of the w i r e used f o r suspension of the coil i n a
moving coil galvanometer?
Ans. The path of a charged particle will be a straight line path as no force acts on the
particle.
3. Two wires of equal lengths are bent i n the f o r m of t wo loops. One of the loop is
square shaped whereas the other loop is circular. These are suspended i n a uni f orm
magnetic field and the same cur ren t is passed throug h them. Which loop w i l l
experience greater torque? Give reasons?
Ans. since
Ans. A cyclotron is not suitable to accelerate electron because its mass is less due to which
they gain speed and step out of the dee immediately.
2 M a r k Questions
1. A steady cu rrent flows in the network shown i n the figure. What w i l l be the magnetic
field at the centre of the network?
Ans. Zero, because magnetic field at the centre of the loop is just equal and opposite i.e.
magnetic field due 1- PQR is equal and opposite to that of PSR.
2. A n - particle and a proton are moving in the plane of paper i n a region where there
is u n if o r m magnetic field B directed nor mal to the plane of paper. I f two particles have
equal linear momenta, w h a t w i l l be the ra tio of the radi i of t h e i r trajectories i n the field?
=> R
=>
=> R : Rp = 1:2.
3. Give one difference each between diamagnetic and ferromagnetic substances. Give
one example of each?
4. Write the expression f o r the force acting on a charged particle of charge q moving
wi t h velocity is in the presence of magnetic field B. Show that i n the presence of this
force.
Ans. Since F = q ( )
=> w = Fs cos
w = Fs =0
=> KE = 0
