Bihar Board Class 12 Physics Moving Charges and Magnetism Textbook Questions and Answers

Question 1.
A circular coil of wire consisting of 100 turns, each of radius 8.0 cm carries a current of 0.40 A. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field B at the centre of the coil?
Answer:
Here, n = number of turns in the coil = 100
r = radius of each turn of the coil = 8.0 cm = 8 x 10-2 m.
I = current in the circular coil = 0.40 A.
Let B = magnitude of magnetic field at the centre of coil = ?
Using the relation,
B = \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \cdot \frac{2 \pi \mathrm{n} \mathrm{l}}{\mathrm{r}}\) we get

Direction of \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) :
Applying right hand thumb rule, we find that the direction of \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) at the observation point is towards the east i.e., If we assume that NS direction lies in the plane of paper, then \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) will be perpendicular to the plane of paper and in the vertically upward direction,

Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 2
a = 1.5 m.
Let B = magnetic field at point P (say) at a distance 1.5 m below the line.
∴ Using the relation,
B = \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \cdot \frac{2 \pi \mathrm{n} \mathrm{l}}{\mathrm{r}}\), we get
B = 10-7 x \(\frac{2 \times 90}{1.5}\) = 1.2 x 10-5 T

Direction of \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) :
According to right hand thumb rule, the direction of the magnetic field is towards the south at the point of observation.

Question 5.
What is the magnitude of magnetic force per unit length on a wire carrying a current of 8 A and making an angle of 30° with the directiorf of a uniform magnetic field at 0.15 T?
Answer:
Here, I = Current in the wire = 8A.
θ = angle made bv the wire with the uniform magnetic field
\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) = 30°
B = 0.15 T
Let F be the magnetic force per unit length on the wire = ?

∴ Using equation
F = BI sin θ , we get
F = 0.15 x 8 x sin 30° (Nm-1)
= 0.15 x 8 x \(\frac {1}{2}\)
= 0.15 x 4 = 0.60 Nm-1.

Question 6.
A 3.0 cm wire carrying a current of 10 A is placed inside a solenoid perpendicular to its axis. The magnetic field inside the solenoid is given to be 0.27 T. What is the magnetic force on the wire?
Answer:
Here, l = length of the wire = 3.0 cm = 3 x 10-2 m.
I = current in the wire = 10 A.
B = magnetic field inside the solenoid = 0.27 T
0 = angle made by the wire with the axis of the solenoid = 90°
Let F = magnitude of the magnetic force on the wire.
∴ Using eqn, F = BIZ sin θ, we get
F = BI l sin 90° = BIl
= 0.27 x 10 x 3 x 10-2
= 8.1 x 10-2 N.

Question 7.
Two long and parallel straight wires A and B carrying currents of 8.0 A and 5.0 A in the same direction are separated by a distance of 4.0 cm. Estimate the force on a 10 cm section of wire A.
Answer:
Here, Let I1, and I2 be the currents flowing in the straight long and parallel wires A and B respectively.
∴ I1 = 8.0 A, I2 = 5.0 A flowing in the same direction.
r = distance between A and B = 4.0 cm = 4 x 10-2 m.
If F’ be the force per unit length on wire A, then using
F’ = \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \cdot \frac{2 \pi \mathrm{n} \mathrm{l}}{\mathrm{r}}\) we get
F’ = 10-7 x \(\frac{2 \times 8 \times 5}{4 \times 10^{-2}}\) Nm-1
= 20 x 10-5 Nm-1.
If F be the force on a section of length 10 cm of wire A, then
F = F’ x l (Here, l = 10 x 10-2 m)
= 20 x 10-5 x 10 x 10-2 N = 2 x 10-5N.
Direction of \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}\) : As the current in the two parallel wires is flowing in the same direction, so the force will be attractive normal to A towards B.

Question 8.
A closely wound solenoid 80 cm long has 5 layers of windings of 400 turns each. The diameter of the solenoid is 1.8 cm. If the current carried is 8.0 A, estimate the magnitude of B inside the solenoid near its centre.
Answer:
Here, l = length of the long solenoid = 80 cm = 80 x 10-2 m.
n’ = no. of turns in each layer = 400
n = no. of layers in the solenoid =5.
N = total number of turns in the solenoid = n’n = 400 x 5 = 2000.
I = current flowing in the solenoid = 8.0 A.
D = Diameter of the solenoid = 1.8 cm = 1.8 x 10-2 m.
Let B be the magnitude of the magnetic field inside the solenoid near its centre = ?
\(\frac{\mu_{0} \mathrm{NI}}{l}\) = \(\frac{4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \times 2000 \times 8}{80 \times 10^{-2}}\) T
= 8π x 10-3 T = 2.5 x 10-2 T.

Question 9.
A square coil of side 10 cm consists of 20 turns and carries a current of 12 A. The coil is suspended vertically and the normal to the plane of the coil makes an angle of 30° with the direction of a uniform horizontal magnetic field of magnitude 0.80 T. What is the magnitude of torque experienced by the coil?
Answer:
Here, a = side of square coil = 10 cm = 10 x 10-2 m.
N = total number of turns in the coil = 20
I = current flowing in the coil = 12 A.
B = magnitude of uniform magnetic field = 0.80 T.
θ = angle made by the normal to the plane of coil with B = 30°
∴ A = area of coil = a2 = (10 x 10-2) m2.
τ = magnitude of the torque experienced by the coil = ?

Using the formula,
τ = NIA B sin θ, we get
τ = 20 x 12 x (10 x 10-2)2 x 0.80 x sin 30°
= 20 x 12 x 10-2 x 0.80 x \(\frac {1}{2}\)
= 0.96 Nm.

Question 10.
Two moving coil meters, M1 and M2 have the following particulars:
R1 = 10 Ω, N1 = 30,
A1 = 3.6 x 10-3 m2, B1 = 0.25 T
R2 = 14 Ω, N2 = 42,
A2 = 1.8 x 10-3 m2, B2 = 0.50 T
(The spring constants are identical for the two meters). Determine the ratio of (a) current sensitivity and (b) voltage sensitivity of M2 and M1.
Answer:
Here, R1 = 10 Ω, N1 = 30, A1 = 3.6 x 10-3 m2, B1 = 0.25 T for coil M1
R2 = 14 Ω, N2 = 42, A2 = 1.8 x 103 m2, B2 = 0.50 T for coil M2.
We know that current sensitivity and voltage sensitivity are given by the formulae.
Current sensitivity = \(\frac {NBA}{K}\)
and Voltage sensitivity = \(\frac {NBA}{KR}\)
Here k1 = k2 for the two coils = k (say)
∴ Current sensitivity for M1 is given by = N1 B1A1/k
and for M2 = N2 B2 \(\frac{\mathrm{A}_{2}}{\mathrm{k}}\)

Question 11.
In a chamber, a uniform magnetic field of 6.5 G (1 G = 10-4 T) is maintained. An electron is shot into the field with a speed of 4.8 x 106 ms-1 normal to the field. Explain why the path of the electron is a circle. Determine the radius of the circular orbit, (e = 1.6 x 10-19 C, me = 9.1 x 10-31 kg)
Answer:
Here, B = 6.5 G = 6.5 x 10-4 T = uniform magnetic field.
υ = speed of the electron shot normal to \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}\) = 4.8 x 106 ms-1
e = charge on an electron = 1.6 x 10-19 C.
me = mass of an electron,
=9.1 x 1031kg.
θ = 90° C
If r be the radius of the circular orbit, then the force F on the moving electron due to the magnetic field is given by
F = e υ B sin θ .
The direction of the force is perpendicular to \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}}\) as well as to \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) , so this force will only change the direction of motion of the electron without affecting its speed and this force provides the necessarily centrepetal force to the moving electron, so the electron will move on the circular path. If r be the radius of the circular path followed by the electron, then

Question 12.
In Exercise 4.11 obtain the frequency of revolution of the electron in its circular orbit. Does the answer depend on the speed of the electron? Explain.
Answer:
Let v = Frequency of revolution of electron in the orbit = ?
Again using the formula,
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 7
From equation (1), we see that the frequency of revolution of the electron does not have the speed of the electron, so v does not depend on the speed of the electron.

Question 13.
(a) A circular coil of 30 turns and radius 8.0 cm carrying a current of 6.0 A is suspended vertically in a uniform horizontal magnetic field of magnetude 1.0 T. The field lines make an angle of 60° with the normal of the coil. Calculate the magnitude of the counter torque that must be applied to prevent the coil from turning.

(b) Would your answer change, if the circular coil in (a) were replaced by a planar coil of some irregular shape that encloses the same area? (All other particulars are also unaltered.)
Answer:
Here, N = no. of turns in the circular coil = 30
r = radius of the ciruclar coil = 8.0 cm = 8 x 10-2 m.
I = current in the circular coil = 6.0 A.
B = uniform horizontal magnetic field = 1.0 T.
θ = angle between \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) and the normal to the plane of coil = 60°
∴ area of circular coil, A = πr-2 = 3.14 x (8 x 10-2)2 m2
= 3.14 x 64 x 10-4 m2 = 2.01 x 10-2 m2.

Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism

(a) Magnitude of torque acting on the current carrying coil due to the magnetic field is given by
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 8

To prevent the coil from rotating, a torque equal and opposite to x has to be applied
∴ Torque required = τ = 3.133 Nm.

(b) No. Since the torque on a planar loop is independent of its shape in case the area of the loop is kept same; hence the torque will remain unchanged.

Question 14.
Two concentric circular coils X and Y of radii 16 cm and 10 cm, respectively, lie in the same vertical plane containing the north to south direction. Coil X has 20 turns and carries a current of 16 A; coil Y has 25 turns and carries a current of 18 A. The sense of the current in X is anticlockwise, and clockwise in Y, for an observer looking at the coils facing west. Give the magnitude and direction of the net magnetic field due to the coils at their centre.
Answer:
For coil X:
Here, a = radius of coil = 16 cm = 16 x 10-2 m.
n = no. of turns in the coil = 20
I = current in the coil = 16 A (anticlockwise)
Bx = The magnetic field at the centre at the coil X = ?
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 9

Using formula,
B = \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \cdot \frac{2 \pi n I}{Q}\) …….(1)

Weget
B = \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \cdot \frac{2 \pi n I}{9}\)
= \(\frac{10^{-7} \times 2 \times \pi \times 20 \times 16}{16 \times 10^{-2}}\) = 4π x 10-4 T
For an observer looking at the coil X facing west, the current is flowing in the anticlockwise direction, so the direction of B is towards east.

For coil Y:
Here, a = 10 cm = 10 x 10-2 m
n = 25
I = 18 A (clockwise)
By = magnetic field at the centre of the coil Y = ?
Using eqn (1), we get
By = \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \cdot \frac{2 \pi \mathrm{nI}}{\mathrm{a}}\)
= 10-7 x \(\frac{2 \pi \times 25 \times 18}{10 \times 10^{-2}}\) T
= 9π x 10-4T.
For an observer looking at the coil Y facing west, the current is flowing in the clockwise direction, so the direction of field By is towards west. ‘
Now as Bx and By act along the same line in the opposite direction, so the resultant magnetic field will act in the direction of bigger vector.
So if \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}\) be the net magnetic field due to the two coils at their centre, then
\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}\) = \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{r}_{\mathrm{y}}}\) + \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{r}_{\mathrm{x}}}\)
= 9π x 10-4 (west) + 471 x 10-4 (east)
= (9π x 10-4 – 4π x 10-4) west
= 5π x 10-4 T towards west
= 5 x 3.14 x 10-4 T towards west
= 1.6 x 10-4T towards west.

Question 15.
A magnetic field of 100 G (1G = 10-4 T) is required which is uniform in a region of linear dimension about 10 cm and area of cross-section about 10-3 m2. The maximum current-carrying capacity of a given coil of wire is 15 A and the number of turns per unit length that can be wound round a core is at most 1000 turns m-1. Suggest some appropriate design particulars of a solenoid for the required purpose. Assume the core is not ferromagnetic.
Answer:
Here, B = magnetic field = 100 G = 100 x 10-4 = 10-2 T,
Imax maximum current carried by the coil = 15 A.
n = number of turns per unit length = 1000 turns m-1 = 10 turns m-1 = 10 turns / cm.
l = length of linear region = 10 cm
A = area of cross-section = 10-3 m2.
To produce a magnetic field in the above mentioned region, a solenoid can be made so that well within the solenoid, the magnetic field is uniform. To do so, we may take the length L of the solenoid 5 times the length of the region and area of the solenoid 5 times the area of region. ∴ L = 5l = 50 cm = 0.5
and A = 59 = 5 x 10-3 m2
∴ If r be the radius of the solenoid, then
πr2 = A = 5 x 10-3
r = \(\sqrt{\frac{5 \times 10^{-3}}{3.14}}\) = 0.04m = 4cm
Also let us wind 500 turns on the coil so that the number of turns per m is
n’ = \({\frac{500}{0.5}\) = 1000 turns m-1,
∴ Using formula, μ0nl = B, we get
I = \(\frac{\mathrm{B}}{\mu_{0} \mathrm{n}}\) = \(\frac{10^{-2}}{4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \times 1000}\) = 7.96 A ≈ 8A
So, a current of 8A can be passed through it to produce a uniform magnetic field of loo G in the region. But this is not a unique way. If we wind 300 turns on the solenoid, then number of turns is n = \({\frac{300}{0.5}\) = 600 per m.
∴ I = \(\frac{\mathrm{B}}{\mu_{0} \mathrm{n}}\) = \(\frac{10^{-2}}{4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \times 600}\) = 13.3A
i.e. a current of 10 A can be passed Through it to produce the magnetic field of 100 G
Similary if no .of turns = 400
then
n = \(\frac{400}{0.5}\) = 800 per m.
I = \(\frac{B}{\mu_{0} n}\) = \(\frac{10^{-2}}{4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \times 800}\) = 9.95 A
i.e. a current of 10 A can be passed ≈ 10A
Through it to produce B = 100 G
Thus we may achieve the result in a number of ways.

Question 16.
for a circular coil of radius R and N turns carrying current I, the magnitude of the magnetic field at a point on its axis at a distance x from its centre is given by,
B = \(\frac{\mu_{0} I R^{2} N}{2\left(x^{2}+R^{2}\right)^{3 / 2}}\)
(a) Show that this reduces to the familiar result for the field at the centre of the coil.
(b) Consider two parallel co-axial circular coils of equal radius R, and number of turns N, carrying equal currents in the same direction, and separated by a distance R. Show that the field on the axis around the mid-point between the coils is uniform over a distance that is small as compared to R, and is given by,
B = 0.72 \(\mu_{0} \text { NI }\) , approximately.
[Such an arrangement to produce a nearly uniform magnetic field over a small region is known as Helmholtz coils\.
Answer:
Here the magnetic field at a point on the axis of the circular coil ai a distance x is given by
B = \(\frac{\mu_{0} N I R^{2}}{2\left(x^{2}+R^{2}\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}}\) ……(1)
where R = radius of circular coil.
(a) At the centre of the coil, x = 0.
∴ from equation (1), we get
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 10
which is the required familiar expression for the magnetic field at the centre of the coil.

(b) Let R be the radius of each coaxial circular coils.
N = number of turns in each coil.
R = distance between the two coils = CD.
Let 2d < Rbe the small distance around the mid-point of CD i.e. O, where we want to show that the field is uniform.

If B be the total magnetic field at P due to the two coils, then

Hence proved.

Question 17.
A toroid has a core (non-ferromagnetic) of inner radius 25 cm and outer radius 26 cm, around which 3500 turns of a wire are wound. If the current in the wire is 11 A, what is the magnetic field (a) outside the toroid, (b) inside the core of the toroid, and (c) in the empty space surrounded by the toroid.
Answer:
Here, inner radius r1 = 25 cm = 25 x 10-2 m
outer radius, r2 = 26 cm = 26 x 10-2 m.
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 16
N = Totahnumber of turns = 3500
I = Current in the wire = 11 A
Let r be the mean radius of the toroid
∴ r = \(\frac{r_{1}+r_{2}}{2}\) = \(\frac{(25+26) \times 10^{-2}}{2}\)
= 25.5 x 10-2 m.
Total length of the toroid = circumference of the toroid
= 2πr = 2 x π x 25.5 x 10-2 m = 51 π x 10-2 m
If n be the number of turns per unit length of toroid, then
n = \(\frac{N}{2πr}\) = \(\frac{3500}{51 \pi \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~m}^{-1}}\)
(a) Let B0 be the magnetic field outside the toroid = ?
The field is non-zero only inside the core surrounded by the windings of the toroid, so the magnetic field outside the toroid is zero i.e B0 = 0

(b) Let B1 be the magnetic field inside the core of the toroid =?
B1 = μ0 nI
= 4π x 107 x \(\frac{3500}{51 \pi \times 10^{-2}}\) x 11
= 0.0302 T = 3.02 x 10-2 T

(c) The magnetic field in the empty space surrounded by the toroid
is also zero as the field is non zero only inside the core surrounded by the windings of the toroid.

Question 18.
Answer the following questions
(a) A magnetic field that varies in magnitude from point to point but has a constant direction (east to west) is set up in a chamber. A charged particle enters the chamber and travels undeflected along a straight path with constant speed. What can you say about the initial velocity of the particle?

(b) A charged particle enters an environment of a strong and non-uniform magnetic field varying from point to point both in magnitude and direction, and comes out of it following a complicated trajectory. Would its final speed equal the initial speed if it suffered no collisions with the environment?

(c) An electron travelling west to east enters a chamber having a uniform electrostatic field in north to south direction. Specify the direction in which a uniform magnetic field should be set up to prevent the electron from deflecting from its straight line path.
Answer:
(a) We know that the force on a charged particle moving inside the magnetic field is given by :
\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}\) = q \((\vec{v} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}})\)
The charged particle will travel undeflected i.e. the force on it will be zero if \(\vec{v} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) is equal to zero.
\(\vec{v} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) can be zero either the initial velocity \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{υ}}\) is parallel or antiparallel to \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\)

(b) Yes, its final speed would be equal to the initial speed if it suffered no collision with the environment. This,is because the magnetic field exerts force on the charged particle which is always perpendicular to its motion, so this force can change the direction of motion of the velocity \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{υ}}\) and not its magnitude.

(c) The electrostatic field is directed towards south. Since the electron is negativity charged particle, therefore the electrostatic field shall exert a force directed towards north. So, if the electron is to be prevented from deflection from straight path, the magnetic force on the electron should be directed towards south. As the velocity \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{υ}}\) of the electron is from west to east, the expression for the magnetic Lorentz force i.e. \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}\) m = – e \((\vec{v} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}})\) tells us that the magnetic field \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) should be applied along the vertical and in the downward direction.

An electron emitted by a heated cathode and accelerated through a potential difference of 2.0 kV, enters a region with uniform magnetic field of 0.15 T. Determine the trajectory of the electron if the field (a) is transverse to its initial velocity, (b) makes an angle of 30° with the initial velocity.
Answer:
Here, υ = potential difference = 2.0 kV = 2000 V,
B = uniform magnetic field = 0.15 T
Let e, m be the charge and mass of the electron.
Also let υ be the velocity acquired by the electron when accelerated under potential difference V.

(a) When the magnetic field is transverse to the initial velocity. The force on the electron due to transverse magnetic field =Be υ.
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 18
This force provides the necessary centrepetal force to the electron required for uniform circular motion.
So the trajectory of the electrons is circular having radius r (say) obtained as

(b) When the magnetic field makes an anele 30° with the initial velocity.
Here θ = 30°
∴ Component of v nonnal to \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) is υ2 = υ sin 30° \(\frac {1}{2}\)

Due to υ2, the force acting on the electron due to \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) will be providing the required centrepetal force, hence the electron will move along a circle.

is the component of velocity along \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) , so no force will act on the electron due to vy So the electron shall follow a straight path along \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) Due to these two component velocities, the electron will describe a helical path having radius, \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{r}_{\mathrm{1}}}\) (say) given by
\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{r}_{\mathrm{1}}}\) = \(\frac{\mathrm{m} v_{2}}{\mathrm{Be}}\)
(∴ υ2 = υ1 = component of \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{υ}}\) normal to \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\)

Question 20.
A magnetic field set up using Helmholtz coils (described in Exercise 4.16) is uniform in a small region and has a magnitude of 0.75 T. In the same region, a uniform electrostatic field is maintained in a direction normal to the common axis of the coils. A narrow beam of (single species) charged particles all accelerated through 15 kV enters this region in a direction perpendicular to both the axis of the coils and the electrostatic field. If the beam remains undeflected when the electrostatic field is 9.0 x 10+5 Vm”1, make a simple guess as to what the beam contains. Why is the answer not unique?
Answer:
Here, B = magnetic field =0.75 T
E = Electric field applied normal to the axis of coils in the same region of B = 9 x 10-5 Vm-1
V = P.D. applied = 15 kV = 15000 V.
Let e, m be the charge and mass of the charged particle.
As the beam of charged particles remains undeflected, so the force due to magnetic and electric fields must be equal and opposite i.e.
Fm = Fe
or BeV = eE
or υ = \(\frac {E}{B}\) = \(\frac{9 \times 10^{+5}}{0.75}\) = 12 x 10+6 ms-1
nature of particles in the beam.
Also \(\frac {1}{2}\) mυ2 = eV
or \(\frac {e}{m}\) = \(\frac{v^{2}}{2 \mathrm{~V}}\) = \(\frac{\left(12 \times 10^{6}\right)^{2}}{2 \times 15000}\)
= 4.8 x 107 C kg-1
Also, we know that \(\frac {e}{m}\) for proton is = 9.6 x 10-7 x C kg-1. It follows m
that the charged particle under reference has the value of \(\frac {e}{m}\) half of that
for the proton, so its mass is clearly double the mass of proton. Thus the beam may be of deutrons.
The answer is not unique as the ratio of charge to mass i.e. 4.8 = 107 C kg-1 may be satisfied by many other charged particles, such as He++ (\(\frac {2e}{2m}\)) and Li+++ (\(\frac {3e}{3m}\))
which have the same value of (\(\frac {e}{m}\))

Question 21.
A straight horizontal conducting rod of length 0.45 m and mass 60 g is suspended by two vertical wires at its ends. A current of 5.0 A is set up in the rod through the wires.
(a) What magnetic field should be set up normal to the conductor in order that the tension in the wires is zero?
(b) What will be total tension in the wires if the direction of current is reversed keeping the magnetic field same as before? (Ignore the mass of the wires.) g = 9.8m s2A
Answer:
Here, l = length of rod = 0.45 m.
m = mass of rod = 60 g = 60 x 10-3 kg.
I = current passing through the rod 5.0 A

Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism

(a) Tire tension in the wire will be zero if the force on Jhe wire due to the magnetic field is equal and opposite to the weight of the rod and is in the vertically upward direction.
i.e BI l = mg
B = \(\frac{\mathrm{mg}}{\mathrm{I} l}=\frac{60 \times 10^{-3} \times 9.8}{5 \times 0.45}\) = 0.261 T
The force due to \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) will be upward if the direction of the field is horizontal and normal to the conductor as can be determined by applying Fleming’s left hand rule.

(b) When the direction of the current is reversed, then the force on the rod due to B will act in the direction of its weight i.e. vertically
downwards, so tension in the supporting wire will be given by,
T = BI l + mg
= 0.261 x 5 x 0.45 + 60 x 10-3 x 9.8
= 0.588+ 0.588 = 1.176 N.
i.e. T = mg + mg = 2 x weight of the rod.

Question 22.
The wires which connect the battery of an automoblie to its starting motor carry a current of 300 A (for a short time). What is the force per unit length between the wires if they are 70 cm long and 1.5 cm apart? Is the force attractive of repulsive?
Answer:
Here, I1 = I2 = 300 A
r = 1.5 cm = 1.5 x 102m
Length of each wire, l = 70 cm = 70 x 10-2 m.
We know that the force per unit length of a current carrying long conductor is given by
F = \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \times \frac{2 \mathrm{I}_{1} \mathrm{I}_{2}}{\mathrm{r}}\)
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 22
As the current in the two wires connecting the battery to the starting motor flows in opposite directions, so the force is repulsive.

Question 23.
A uniform magnetic field of 1.5 T exists in a cylindrical region of radius 10.0 cm, its direction parallel to the axis along east to west. A wire carrying current of 7.0 A in the north to south direction passes through this region. What is the magnitude and direction of the force on the wire if,
(a) the wire intersects the axis
(b) the wire is turned from N-S to northeast-northwest direction,
(c) the wire in the N-S direction is lowered from the axis by a distance of 6.0 cm?
Answer:
Here, B = uniform magnetic field = 1.5 T.
I = current in the wire = 7.0 A
(a) Length of the wire in a cylindrical magnetic field is equal to the diameter of the cylinderical region i.e.
Z = 2r = 2 x 10 = 20 cm = 20 x 10-2 m.
Angle between the current and the magneitc field, 0 = 90°
∴ Force on the wire is given by
F = BI l sin θ
= 1.5 x 7.0 x 20 x 10-2 x sin 90 = 2.1 N
The direction of this force is vertically downwards using Fleming’s left hand rule.

Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism

(b) When the wire is turned from N-S to north east – north west direction, then θ = 45° and length of the wire in the cylindrical region of the magneitc field is I1 (say) given by
I = I1 sin 45° or I1 = \(\frac{l}{\sin 45^{\circ}}\)
or I1 = \(\frac{l}{1 / \sqrt{2}}\) = \(\sqrt{2}\) l
If F1 be the force on the wire in this case, then
F1 = B I l1 sin 45°
= 1.5 x 7.0 x \(\sqrt{2}\) l x \(\frac{l}{1 / \sqrt{2}}\)
= 10.5 x 0.2 = 2.1 N = 2.1 N
The force acts vertically downwards.

(c) When the wire is lowered by-6.0 cm i.e. taken at position CD as shown in the figure here, then the length of the wire in magnetic field is given by
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 23
l2 = 2x
where x is given by
x.x = 4 x (10 + 6) = 64
or x2 = 64
x.x = 8cm.
l2 = 2 x 8
= 16 cm
= 16 x 10-2
Let F2 be the force on the wire in this case,
F2 = BI l2
= 1.5 x 7x 10 x 10-2 = 1.68 N
and it acts vertically downwards.

Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 24
answer:
Here, B = unifrom megnetic feild gasus along z-axis = 3000 x 10-4 T = 0.3 T
l = length of rectangular loop
= 10 cm = 0.1 m
b = breath of rectangular loop
= 5 cm = 0.05 m
∴ A = area of rectangular loop
= l x b = 10 x 5 = 50 cm2 = 50 x 10-4 m2
Torque on the loop is given by
τ = IAB cos θ
When θ is the angle between the plane of the loop and the direction of magnetic field.
(a) Here θ = 0
τ = 0.3 x 12 x 50 x 10-4 x cos 0
= 1.8 x 102 Nm
and acts along y’- axis i.e. – y direction

Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism

(b) θ = 0
τ = 0.3 x 12 x 50 x 10 x cos 0
= 1.8 x 102 Nm
and acts along y’-axis or y-axis

(c) θ = 0
∴ τ = 0.3 x 12 x 50 x 10 x cos 0
= 1.8 x 102 Nm
and acts along – x direction or x’- axis

(d) Here θ = 0
∴ τ = 1.8 x 10-2

(e) Here θ = 900, so cos 90 = 0
∴ τ = BIA cos 90 = 0

(f) θ = 90 τ = 0

(c) I \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{A}}\) = 0.06 \(\hat{\mathrm{i}}\) ,Am2, \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) = 0.3 \(\hat{\mathrm{k}}\) T
∴ \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{τ}}\) = \((\overrightarrow{\mathrm{A}}) \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) = 0.06\(\hat{\mathrm{j}}\) x 0.3 \(\hat{\mathrm{k}}\)
= -1.8 x 10-2 \(\hat{\mathrm{j}}\) Nm
∴ τ = 1.8 x 10-2 Nm and acts along – x direction
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 25

(d) Here \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{A}}\) = \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{l}}\) x \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}\)
= 0.1 \(\hat{\mathrm{k}}\) x (0.05 cos 300 \(\hat{\mathrm{j}}\) + 0.05 sin 30\(\hat{\mathrm{i}}\))
= 5 x 10-3 \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\) \(\hat{\mathrm{k}}\) x \(\hat{\mathrm{j}}\) + 5 x 10-3 x \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\)\(\hat{\mathrm{k}}\) x \(\hat{\mathrm{i}}\)
= 2.5 x 10-3 \((-\sqrt{3} \hat{i}+\hat{i})\)
\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{τ}}\) = \((\overrightarrow{\mathrm{A}}) \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\)
= 12 x 2.5 x 10-3 \((-\sqrt{3} \hat{i}+\hat{j})\) x 0.3 \(\hat{\mathbf{k}}\)
= 9 x 10-3 \((-\sqrt{3} \hat{i} \times \hat{k}+\hat{j} \times \vec{k})\)
= 9 x 10-3 [latex](\hat{i}-\sqrt{3}(-\hat{j})[/latex]

\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{τ}}\) = 0.06 \(\hat{\mathrm{k}}\) x 0.3 \(\hat{\mathrm{k}}\) = 0

∴ \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{τ}}\) = -0.06 x 0.3 \(\hat{\mathrm{k}}\) x \(\hat{\mathrm{k}}\) = 0
Net force on a planar loop in a magnetic field is always zero, so force is zero in each case.

(b) total force on the coil,
(c) average force on each electron in the coil due to the magnetic field?
(The coil is made of copper wire of cross-sectional area 10-5 m2, and the free electron density in copper is given to be about 1029 m-3,)
Answer:
(a) Here, n = number of turns in the circular coil = 20
r = radius of the circular coil = 10 cm = 10 x 10-2 m.
B = uniform magnetic field = 0.10 T
θ = angle between \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) and normal to the plane of coil = 0°
I = current in the coil = 5.0 A
A = Area of the coil = πr2
= \(\frac{22}{7} \times(0.10)^{2}\) = m2
τ = torque on the coil = ?

(a) Using formula,
τ = n B I A sin θ
We get, τ = 20 x 5 x 0.10 x \(\frac{22}{7}\) x (0.10)2 x sin θ°
= 0
(b) Total force on a planar current loop in a magnetic field is always zero.
(c) Force on an electron is given by
F = B e υd = Be \(\left(\frac{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{neA}^{\prime}}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{BI}}{\mathrm{nA}}\)
(∴ I = ne A vd)
Here, n = 1029 m-3
= free electron density in copper
A’ = area of cross-section of copper wire = 10-5 m2

Question 26.
A solenoid 60 cm long and of radius 4.0 cm has 3 layers of windings of 300 turns each. A 2.0 cm long wire of mass 2.5 g lies inside the solenoid (near its centre) normal to its axis; both the wire and the axis of the solenoid are in the horizontal plane. The wire is connected through two leads parallel to the axis of the solenoid to an external battery which supplies a current of 6.0 A in the wire. What value of current (with appropriate sense of circulation) in the windings of the solenoid can support the weight of the wire? g = 9.8 m s-2
Answer:
Let I be the current passed through the solenoid.
If B = the magnetic field set up at the centre of the solenoid, then
B = μ0 nl ……..(i)
This field acts normally to the length of the current carrying wire, thus the wire experiences a force F given by
F = BI’ l …… (ii)
When I’ = Current flowing through the wire = 6.0 A. and l = length of the wire placed inside the solenoid = 2 cm = 0.02 m
Here, N = total no. of turns = no. of layers x no. of turns in each layer .
= 3 x 300 = 900
L = length of solenoid
= 60 cm = 0.6 m
r = radius of solenoid
4 cm = 0.04 m
n = \(\frac {N}{L}\) = 1500 turns m-1
∴ From (1) B = 4π x 10-7 x 1500 x I
6π x 10-4 I Tesla.
6π x 10-4 x 6 x 0.02
2.262 x 10-4 I N
The direction of current through the solenoid and hence the magnetic field are understood to be in such a direction that the force F acts upwards and the wrightof wire will be supported only if F is equal and opposite to the weight of the wire i.e.
F = mg
or 2.262 x 10-4 I = mg
m = 2.5 x 10-3 kg
g = 9.5 ms-2
∴ 2.262 x 10-4 I = 2.5 x 10-3 x 9.8
0r I = \(\frac{2.5 \times 10^{-3} \times 9.8}{2.262 \times 10^{-4}}\)
= 108.3 A

Question 15.
Define magnetic field induction at a point in terms of the force experienced by a charge moving in a magnetic field and hence define one Tesla.
Answer:
Definition of B :
We know that F = Bq υ sin q
If. sin θ = 1 i.e., θ = 90°, υ = 1, q = 1, then F = B x 1 x 1 x 1
or B = F
Thus B is defined to be numerically equal to the force experienced by a unit charge moving perpendicular to the magnetic field with unit velocity.

Definition of IT :
If q = 1 C, υ = 1 ms-1 θ = 90°, F = 1 N,
Then B = 1T
∴ 1T = 1 N C-1 m-1 s = 1 N-1 A-1 m-1.
Thus the magnetic field at a’ point is said to be 1 T if 1 C charge moving perpendicular to the magnetic field with a velocity of 1 ms-1 experiences a force of 1 N at that point.

\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}\) = \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{e}}}\) + \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{m}}}\)
= q \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}\) + q \((\vec{v} \times \vec{B})\)
= q \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}\) + q \((\vec{v} \times \vec{B})\)
= q [\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}\) + \((\vec{v} \times \vec{B})\)]

Question 18.
Why static magnetic field can’t change the kinetic energy of the moving charge?
Answer:
The force acting on a moving charge is always perpendicular to the magnetic field so static magnetic field cannot increase the force. Also the components of magnetic field in the direction of force is zero and the energy of moving charge is equal to the work done on it = Component of field along the direction of motion x charge = 0 x charge = 0.

Question 20.
Explain why the magnetic field falls of very rapidly irf case of the current carrying loop at a point on its axis?
Answer:
We know that the magnitude of the magnetic field at a point on the axis of the current carrying loop is given by
B =\(\frac{\mu_{0} I R^{2} N}{2\left(x^{2}+R^{2}\right)^{3 / 2}}\)
When R = radius of loop,
x = distance of the point from its centre.
If x > > R, then R2 may be neglected in x2 + R2.
B = \(\frac{\mu_{0} \mathrm{IR}^{2} \mathrm{~N}}{2 \mathrm{x}^{3}}=\frac{\mu_{0} \mathrm{IN}}{2 \mathrm{x}^{3}}\)
or B ∝ \(\frac{1}{\mathrm{x}^{3}}\)
i.e., B varies inversely as the cube of the distance of the point from the centre of the loop, hence the field falls of very sharply with distance.

Question 21.
State the principle of a moving coil galvanometer.

Question 23.
How will you identify whether the magnetic field at any point is due to earth or due to some current carrying conductor?
Answer:
If the magnetic field is due to earth’s magnetism only then the magnetic needle will always lie along the N-S direction On the other hand if the magnetic field is due to a current carrying conductor, then its direction may differ from N-S direction and it will come back to N-S direction when the current passing through the conductor is switched off.

Question 24.
An electron beam is deflected in a given electric or magnetic field. How will you detect wether it has been deflected in electric or magnetic field?
Answer:
When the electron beam is passed through electric field or two parallel plates having a potential difference V across them, then the ‘ electrons are deflected towards the positive plate and the path of the electron beam is parabola. On the other hand, when the electron beam enters into a uniform magnetic field perpendicularly then its path is circular. If it enters at any . angle θ (≠ 0° and 180°), then the path will be helical.

∴ Current element = I \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{dl}}\)
Its significance is that it produces the magnetic field in fhe same way as a stationary charge produces an electric field.

Question 27.
Is the source of magnetic field analogue to the source of electric field? Why?
Answer:

Question 28.
When an ammeter is put in a circuit, does it read slightly less or more than the actual current in the original circuit? Explain.
Answer:
Ammeter reads slightly lesser than the actual currents when it is connected in a circuit because it has a small resistance which slightly decreases circuit current!

Question 29.
Can we decrease the range of an ammeter? Why?
Answer:
We know that the shunt resistance is given by
S = \(\frac{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{g}}}{\mathrm{I}-\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{g}}}\) . G
S cannot be negative, so the range of ammeter cannot be decreased.

How will you convert a moving coil galvanometer into:
(a) an ammeter
(b) a voltmeter
Answer:
A galvanometer is converted in to:
(a) an ammeter by connecting a low resistance in parallel to the galvanometer. This low resistance is called shunt.
(b) a voltmeter by connecting a high resistance in series with the galvanometer.

Question 32.
Why should the ammeter have a low resistance?
Answer:
An ammeter should have a low resistance so that it may not change the resistance of the circuit when it is connected in series.

Question 33.
What are the advantages of a moving coil galvanometer?
Answer:

  • It can be made extremely sensitive so as to detect even minute cyrrent in the circuit. –
  • A linear scale can be used as the deflection of the coil of the galvanometer is directly proportional to the current.
  • The external magnetic field cannot change the deflection of the coil of the galvanometer as the magnetic field is very strong.
  • It is a dead beat type galvanometer which comes to the rest position quick by after disturbance.
  • Moving coil galvanometer can be made ballistic by using a non-conducting frame instead of a metallic frame.

Question 35.
Out of an ammeter and a voltmeter which of the two has a high resistance and why?
Answer:
Voltmeter has high resistance. This is because galvanometer is converted into voltmeter by connecting a high resistance in series with it.

Question 36.
Why does a solenoid contract when current is passed through it?
Answer:
When the current is passed through a solenoid, the current in the adjacent turns of the solenoid flows in the same direction. We know that current flowing in the same direction between two conductors causes a force of attraction. So the turns of the solenoid will attract each other and hence the solenoid will contract.

Question 37.
What is the magnetic field at the centre C of the following circular loop formed by sermi-circles APB and AQB? Why?
Answer:
Hie magnetic field at the centre of the circular loop given here is zero because the magnetic fields due to the two semicircles are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

Question 38.
Compare a voltmeter and ammeter.
Answer:
(i) An ammeter is used to measure current while a voltmeter is used to measure the potential difference.
(ii) An ammeter is a low resistance instrument while a voltmeter is a high resistance instrument.
(iii) An ammeter is always connected in series while a voltmeter is always connected in parrallel.

Question 39.
If a student by mistake connects a voltmeter in series with or an ammeter in parrallel or a circuit, what will happen?
Answer:
When the voltmeter is connected in series, the resistance of the circuit becomes high. Hence the current in the circuit will be reduced, so the voltmeter will not read the required potential difference. When the ammeter is connected in parallel in a circuit, the resistance is reduced considerably. So a large current would flow which can damage the ammeter.

Question 3.
Derive the empression for the force on a current carrying conductor placed in a uniform magnetic field.
Answer:
Consider a conductor PQ of length 1 and area of cross reaction A lying in a uniform magnetic field acting along Z ‘axis. Let I be the current flowing in it along Y axis.
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 34
I \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{l}}\) = current element acting along y-axis.
Let \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{d}}}\) = drift velocity of free electrons along Y-axis
n = no.of free electrons per unit volume.
we know that I = neA υd ……. (i)
Multiplying on both sides of eq (i) by 1, we get
I \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{l}}\) = neA l \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{d}}}\) ……..(ii)
As direction of conventional current is opposite to \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{d}}}\)
writing (ii) in vector form, we get
I \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{l}}\) = neAl \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{d}}}\) …….(iii)
Let \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{f}}\) be the magnetic Lorentz force on the electron having charge -e, then
\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{f}}\) = -e(\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{d}}}\) x \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) ) ……..(iv)
Let N be the total number of electrons in the conductor
∴ N = carrier density x Volume of conductor
= n x Al ……..(v)
If \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}\) be the force on the current carrying conductor i.e. on N electrons in the conductor,
Then \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}\) = N \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{f}}\)
= n A Z [- e (\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{d}}}\) x \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\))]
(using (iv) and (v))
= -ne A l (\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{d}}}\) x \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\))
= (-neAl\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{d}}}\)) x \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\)
\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}\) = I \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{l}}\) x \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) (using (ii))
Clearly \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}\) acts along X-axis according to Fleming’s left hand rule.
If θ be the angle between I \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{l}}\) and \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) ,then the magnitude of \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}\) is given by

Question 4.
Derive the empression for the force on a charge moving in a magnetic field.
Answer:
Let q be a charge moving with a velocity \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{υ}}\) in a magnetic field of strength \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) acting along Z – axis.
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 35
Let θ be the angle made by \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{υ}}\) with \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\)
If F be the force expericned by q, then it is found that the magnitude of the force (F) is :
(i) directly proportional to q i.e. F ∝ q
(ii) directly proportional to the magnitude of magnatic field F ∝ B.
(iii) directly proportional to the component of the velocity normal to \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) i.e.
F ∝υ sin θ
combining, there factors, we get F ∝Bq υ sin θ
or F = kB q υ sin θ
When k is propertionality constant and in S.I. system, k = 1 .
F = B q υ sin θ = q υ B sin θ
or in vector form \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}\) = q (\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{υ}}\) x \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) )
Tlaus \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}\) acts along X-axis is \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{υ}}\) and \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) geting along Y and Z axes respectively as shown in fig, (2).

Question 5.
Derive the empression for the force per unit length between two infinitely long parallel conductors and hence define one ampere current
Answer:
Let x1y1 and x2y2 be the two infinitely long parallel conductors lying in free space at a distance r in the plane of paper.
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 36
I1, I2 = are the currents in them flowing in the same direction.
If \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) be the magnetic field produced at P by x2y2 then
B1 = \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \frac{2 \mathrm{I}_{1}}{\mathrm{r}}\) ………(i)
and acts along Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 82 i.e. ⊥ ar to the plane of paper and away from us.
Now x2y2 is lying in \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) ⊥ arly, so it experiences a force per unit
length \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{2}}}\) (say).
F2 = B1I2l
= \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \frac{2 \mathrm{I}_{1}}{\mathrm{r}}\)
I2 = \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \frac{2 \mathrm{I}_{1} \mathrm{I}_{2}}{\mathrm{r}}\) ……….(iii)
and it acts along PQ.
Similarly, the magnetic field produced by x2y7 at Q (at the position of x1y1) is given by
B2 = \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \frac{2 \mathrm{I}_{2}}{\mathrm{r}}\)
It acts along, i.e ⊥ ar to the plane of paper towards us.
Now x1y1 lies perpendicular to B2
If F1be the force per unit length on it, then
F1 = B2 I1l = \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \frac{2 \mathrm{I}_{2}}{\mathrm{r}}\) l
and it acts along QP.
∴ from (ii) and (iii) we see that F1 = – F2 i.e. the two conductors attract each other.
or F1 = \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{2}}}\) = F = \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \frac{2 \mathrm{I}_{2}}{\mathrm{r}}\) (Nm-1)
Definition of IA :
If I1 = I2 = IA, r = 1 m,
then F = 2 x 10-7 Nm-1
Thus one Ampere is defined as that much current which when flows through each of the two parallel conductors of infinite length placed in free space 1m apart repel each other with a force of 2 x 10-7 Nm-1.

Proof : Let XY be a straight conductor lying in the plane of paper. Let I be the current flowing through it from X to Y.
Let \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) be the magnetic field produced at a point P at a distance r from it. Then B = \(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \frac{2 I}{r}\) and acts along Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 82 according to right hand thumb rule.

Let +e be the charge entering the plates at point O with an initial velocity \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{υ}}\) along X-axis. Let \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}\) = electric field set up between the plates.
Thus a force +e \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}\) acts on the +e charge along P to Q.
Let y = displacement of the charge at point A after a time t
∴ t = \({\frac{x}{υ}}\) ……….(1)
and \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}\) = e\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}\)
if \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}\) = acceleration produced in the charge along Y axis,
Then \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}\) = \(\frac{\vec{F}}{m}=\frac{e \vec{E}}{m}\)
initial velocity along Y axis = 0

If high frequency electric field is also applied, then path of the charged particles becomes spiral of larger and larger radius and its energy goes on increasing with the increase in its speed. It is used to accelerate positively charged particles i.e. proton, a particle etc.
Theory:
The magnetic Lorentz force Be v provides the necessary centrepetal force F = \(\frac{\mathrm{m} v^{2}}{\mathrm{r}}\)

Question 10.
What is a galvanometer? Why it cannot read strong currents?
Answer:
Galvanometer is an instrument to measure weak currents of the order of milli amperes. It is quite sensitive instrument and gives large deflection for weak currents and its resistance is also small. If a strong current is passed through a galvanometer it would produce a very large defelection which would be unmeasurable. Strong currents may bum coil by producing large heat (I2R).

Question 11.
How can galvanometer be converted into an ammeter of different range? What is the resistance of the ammeter and value of S?
Answer:
Galvanometer can be converted into an ammeter by using a shunt of an appropriate value. Shunt is a small resistance always connected in parallel to the instrument. A large amount of the main current passed through the galvanometer passes through the shunt and a very small current passes through the galvanometer.
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 42
Let I be the main current to be measured.
G = resistance of the gavanometer,
S = resistance of shunt.
Ig = current passing through the galvanometer.
I – Ig = current passing
through the shunt. Now as G and S are connected in parallel, so P.D. across G = P.D. across S
or IgG = (I – Ig) S
∴ S = \(\frac{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{g}}}{\mathrm{I}-\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{g}}}\) G
Let RA be the ammeter resistance.
∴ \(\frac{1}{R_{A}}=\frac{1}{G}+\frac{1}{S}=\frac{G+S}{G S}\)
∴ RA = \(\frac{G S}{G+S}\)

Question 12.
How a galvanometer can be converted into voltmeter?

To convert a glavenometer into voltmeter, we connect a high resistanceR in series with the given galvanometer and the value of R depends on the voltage range of the voltmeter to be measured.
Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 79
Let V be the voltage to be measured.
a = galvanometer renistance.
If Ig be the maximum current which can be passed thorugh the galvanometer, then P.D. across points A and B is given by V = Ig (G + R)
or R = \(\frac{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{G}}}-\mathrm{G}\)
If Rv be the voltmeter resistance, then
Rv = G + R.

I = current passed through it.
The magnetic field produced on the circumference of the ring will be same and acts along the tangent to the ring.
∴ According to Ampere’s circuital law,
\(\oint \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{d} l}\) = µ0I x (total current threading
the ring) = µ0I ……..(i)
where I’ = total current threading the ring.
Now number of turns in the solenoid of radius r = 2π r n.
∴ total current threading the ring of radius r is
I’ = (2πrn)I …….(ii)
From (i) ancf(ii), we get
\(\oint \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{d} l}\) = µ0 x 2πrnl
or B. 2 π r = µ0 x 2 πrnl
or B = µ0nI.

Now as \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\) is parallel to PQ, but normal to QR and SP and outside the solenoid,
∴ from (i), \(\int \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B} \cdot \mathrm{d} l}=\int_{\mathrm{P}}^{2} \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{d} l}+0+0+0\)

Bihar Board Class 12th Physics Solutions Chapter 4 Moving Charges and Magnetism - 67
Here, AB = CD = 25 cm 0.25 m
BC = DA = 10 cm = 0.10 m
Let r1 and r2 be the distances of the arms AB and CD from XY
∴ r1 = 2 cm = 0.02 m
and r2 = 2 + 10 = 12 cm – 0.12 m
I1 = 15 A flowing in ABCD
I2 = 25A flowing in XY
The arm AB will get attracted while CD will get repelled and forces on BC and AD will cancel each other.

Question 13.
A voltmeter reads 5.0V at full scale deflection and is graded according to its resistance per volt at full scale deflection as 5000 ΩV-1. How will you convert it into a voltmeter that reads 20V at full scale deflection? Will it still be graded as 5000 ΩV-1. Will you prefer this voltmeter to one that is graded as 2000 ΩV-1?
Solution:
Here, resistance per volt at full scale deflection = 5000 ΩV-1
∴ Currant for maximum deflection is given by
Ig = \(\frac{1}{5000}\) A = 2 x 10-4 A
(∴ Ig = resistance/volt at full scale deflection)
Reading of volt meter at full scale deflection = 5 V
If Rv be the voltmeter resistance, then
Rv = \(\frac{V}{I_{g}}=\frac{5}{2 \times 10^{-4}}\) = 2.5 x 104
New range of voltmeter, V’ = 20V
Let R be the resistance that should be connected in series so that voltmeter may read upto 20 V.
R + Rv = \(\frac{\mathrm{V}^{\prime}}{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{g}}}\)
R = \(\frac{\mathrm{V}^{\prime}}{\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{g}}}\) – Rv
= \(\frac{20}{2 \times 10^{-4}}\) – 2.5 x 104
= (10 – 2.5) x 10+4
If R’v be the resistance of the new voltmeter then
R’v = R + Rv
= 7.5 x 104 + 2.5 x 104
= 10 x 104 = 104
∴ Resistance per volt of the new voltmeter is
= \(\frac{20}{2 \times 10^{-4}}\)= 5000 ΩV-1
Yes, new voltmeter will be still graded as 5000 ΩV-1.
A voltameter graded as 5000 ΩV-1 is better than one graded as 2000 ΩV-1. It is because, higher the resistance per volt lesser is the current it draws from the circuit and hence better it is.

Question 20.
Given a uniform magnetic field of 100G in an east to west direction, and a 44 cm long wire with a current carrying capacity of at most 10A. What is the shape and orientation of the loop made of this wire which yields maximum turning effect on the loop? What is the magnitude of the maximum torque?
Solustion :
Here B = magnetic field
= 100G = 100 x 10-4 T = 10-2 T
length of wire – l = 44 cm = 0.44 m ‘
I = current carrying capacity of the wire = 10A
We know that the torque on a current loop will be maximum if it has maximum area. For a given perimeter, a circle encloses maximum area. So the wire should be bent into a circular loop having radius V (say) given by
2πr = 0.04
0r r = \(\frac {0.04}{ 2 x 22}\) x 7 = 0.07 m
area of the circular loop
A = πr2 = \(\frac {22}{7}\) x (0.07)2 = 154 x 10-4 m2
We know that torque on the coil is given by
τ = BIA sin θ
For τ to be maximum τmax sin θ = 1,
τmax = BIA
= 10-2 x 10 x 154 x 10-4
= 1.54 x 10-3Nm.
Orientation of loop: From equation (1)
τ = BIA sin θ
where θ is the smaller angle between \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}\) and \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}\)
For τmax , sin θ = 1 or θ = 90 which means that the plane of the coil is parallel to the direction of the magnetic field.
