Q.4. A 800 turn coil of effective area 0.05 m² is kept perpendicular to a magnetic field 5 × 10^–5 T. When the plane of the coil is rotated by 90° around any of its coplanar axis in 0.1 s, the emf induced in the coil will be:    (2019)
A: 2 V
B: 0.2 V
C: 2 x 10^-3 V
D: 0.02 V
Ans: D
Solution:
Magnetic field B = 5 × 10^–5 T
Number of turns in coil N = 800
Area of coil A = 0.05 m²

Q.6. A metallic rod of mass per unit length 0.5 kg m^–1 is lying horizontally on a smooth inclined plane which makes an angle of 30° with the horizontal. The rod is not allowed to slide down by flowing a current through it when a magnetic field of induction 0.25T is acting on it in the vertical direction.

Ans: D
Solution:

Q.7. A thin diamagnetic rod is placed vertically between the poles of an electro-magnet. When the current in the electro-magnet is switched on, then the diamagnetic rod is pushed up, out of the horizontal magnetic field. Hence the rod gains gravitational potential energy. The work required to do this comes from     (2018)
A: the current source
B: the magnetic field
C: the lattice structure of the material of the rod
D: the induced electric field due to the changing magnetic field
Ans: A
Solution:
When current source is switched on, magnetic field sets up between poles on electromagnet. Diamagnetic material, due to its tendency to move from stronger to weaker field, is thus repelled out.
