MOVING CHARGES AND MAGNETISM — Physics STD 12 Science — Question

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.

1. What magnetic field should be set up normal to the conductor in order that the tension in the wires is zero?
2. What will be the 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 = 9.8 m s^–2.

Who first of all gave experimental evidence of existence of electromagnetic waves?

If the magnetic field outside a copper box is suddenly changed, what happens to the magnetic field inside the box? Such low-resistivity metals are used to form enclosures which shield objects inside them against varying magnetic fields.

What is Gauss' law?

What is the magnitude of the torque and also give its direction.

If length, number of turns and current flowing through a solenoid are made doubled, then how many times will magnetic field becomes?

What is the relationship between the electric field intensities due to a small electric dipole on its axis and abscissa?

Calculate the time required to heat 20kg of water from 10°C to 35°C using an immersion heater rated 1000W. Assume that 80% of the power input is used to heat the water. Specific heat capacity of water = 42000J kg^-1 K^-1.

Do the electrodes in an electrolytic cell have fixed polarity like a battery?
