A square loop $ABCD$ carrying a current $i,$ is placed near and coplanar with a long straight conductor $XY$ carrying a current $I,$ the net force on the loop will be
An electron is moving in a circular path under the influence of a transverse magnetic field of $3.57 \times 10^{-2}\, T $. If the value of $e/m$ is $1.76 \times 10^{11}\, C/kg $, the frequency of revolution of the electron is
A straight current carrying conductor is placed in such a way that the current in the conductor flows in the direction out of the plane of the paper. The conductor is placed between two poles of two magnets, as shown. The conductor will experience a force in the direction towards
A proton and an $\alpha - $particle enter a uniform magnetic field perpendicularly with the same speed. If proton takes $25$ $\mu \, sec$ to make $5$ revolutions, then the periodic time for the $\alpha - $ particle would be........$\mu \, sec$
An electron is projected with velocity $v_0$ in a uniform electric field $E$ perpendicular to the field. Again it is projetced with velocity $v_0$ perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field $B/$ If $r_1$ is initial radius of curvature just after entering in the electric field and $r_2$ is initial radius of curvature just after entering in magnetic field then the ratio $r_1:r_2$ is equal to
A spherical shell of radius $'R'$ carries uniformly distributed charge $'Q'$ is rotated about it's diameter with angular speed $\omega $ find it's magnetic moment
A straight conductor carrying current $i$ splits into two parts as shown in the figure. The radius of the circular loop is $R$. The total magnetic field at the centre $P$ of the loop is
