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 $30^o$ with the horizontal. The rod is not allowed to slide down by flowing a current through it when a magnetic field of induction $0.25\; T$ is acting on it in the vertical direction. The current flowing in the rod to keep it stationary is.....$A$

For equilibrium,

$m g \sin 30^{\circ}=I l B \cos 30^{\circ}$

$\mathrm{I}=\frac{\mathrm{mg}}{\mathrm{lB}} \tan 30^{\circ}$

$=\frac{0.5 \times 9.8}{0.25 \times \sqrt{3}}=11.32 \,\mathrm{A}$

    The coil in a moving coil galvanometer experiences torque proportional to current passes through it. If a steady current $i$ is passed through it the steady deflection of the coil is found to be $90^o$ . Now the steady current is switched off and a charge $q$ is suddenly passed through coil. If the coil has $N$ turns of area $A$ and its moment of inertia is $I$ about the axis it is going to rotate then the maximum angle through which it deflects upon passing charge $q$ is
