A wire is bent in the form of an equilateral triangle of side $100 \,cm$ and carries a current of $2 \,A$. It is placed in a magnetic field of induction $2.0 \,T$ directed perpendicular into the plane of paper. The direction and magnitude of magnetic force acting on each side of the triangle will be
A circular coil of radius $R$ and $N$ turns has negligible resistance. As shown in the schematic figure, its two ends are connected to two wires and it is hanging by those wires with its plane being vertical. The wires are connected to a capacitor with charge $Q$ through a switch. The coil is in a horizontal uniform magnetic field $B_0$ parallel to the plane of the coil. When the switch is closed, the capacitor gets discharged through the coil in a very short time. By the time the capacitor is discharged fully, magnitude of the angular momentum gained by the coil will be (assume that the discharge time is so short that the coil has hardly rotated during this time)-
A proton with a kinetic energy of $2.0\,eV$ moves into a region of uniform magnetic field of magnitude $\frac{\pi}{2} \times 10^{-3}\,T$. The angle between the direction of magnetic field and velocity of proton is $60^{\circ}$. The pitch of the helical path taken by the proton is $..........cm$ (Take, mass of proton $=1.6 \times 10^{-27}\,kg$ and Charge on proton $=1.6 \times 10^{-19}\,kg)$
A particle is moving with velocity $\overrightarrow{ v }=\hat{ i }+3 \hat{ j }$ and it produces an electric field at a point given by $\overrightarrow{ E }=2 \hat{ k }$. It will produce magnetic field at that point equal to (all quantities are in SI units)
A wire carrying a current $i$ is placed in a uniform magnetic field in the form of the curve $y = a\sin \,\left( {\frac{{\pi x}}{L}} \right)\,0 \le x \le 2L.$ The force acting on the wire is
