b (b) Net force on a current carrying loop in uniform magnetic field is zero. Hence the loop can’t translate. So, options $(c)$ and $(d)$ are wrong.
From Fleming's left hand rule we can see that if magnetic field is perpendicular to paper inwards and current in the loop is clockwise (as shown) the magnetic force $\overrightarrow {{F_m}} $ on each element of the loop is radially outwards, or the loops will have a tendency to expand.

For full scale deflection of total $50$ divisions, $50\,{mV}$ voltage is required in galvanometer. The resistance of galvanometer if its current sensitivity is $2\, {div} / {mA}$ will be $.....\Omega$
A wire carrying current $I$ has the shape as shown in adjoining figure.Linear parts of the wire are very long and parallel to $X-$axis while semicircular portion of radius $R$ is lying in $Y-Z$ plane. Magnetic field at point $O$ is
The deflection in moving coil galvanometer falls from $25$ divisions to $5$ division when a shunt of $24\ \Omega$ is applied. The resistance of galvanometer coil will be :
A charged particle moves along circular path in a uniform magnetic field in a cyclotron. The kinetic energy of the charged particle increases to $4$ times its initial value. What will be the ratio of new radius to the original radius of circular path of the charged particle
A conducting wire bent in the form of a parabola $y^2 = 2x$ carries a current $i = 2 A$ as shown in figure. This wire is placed in a uniform magnetic field $\vec B = - 4\,\hat k$ $Tesla$. The magnetic force on the wire is (in newton)

A galvanometer of resistance $50\, \Omega$ is connected to a battery of $3\, V$ along with a resistance of $2950\, \Omega$ in series. A full scale deflection of $30$ divisions is obtained in the galvanometer. In order to reduce this deflection to $20$ divisions, the resistance in series should be.......$Ω$
An electron moves in a circular orbit with a uniform speed $v$. It produces a magnetic field $B$ at the centre of the circle. The radius of the circle is proportional to
