MCQ
What is the net magnetic flux through a closed surface?
  • A
    Positive
  • B
    Negative
  • C
    Zero
  • D
    Depends on the nature of the surface

Answer

  1. Zero

Explanation:

Gauss’s law indicates that there are no sources or sinks of the magnetic field inside a closed surface. A “closed surface” is a surface that completely encloses a volume with no holes. Therefore, the net magnetic flux through a closed surface is zero.

Identify the wrong statement describing the color code for carbon resistors.

Two metallic plates A and B, each of area 5 ´ 10–4m2 are placed parallel to each other at a separation of 1 cm. Plate B carries a positive charge of 33.7 pc. A monochromatic beam of light, with photons of energy 5 eV each, starts falling on plate A at t = 0, so that 1016 photons fall on it per square meter per second. Assume that one photoelectron is emitted for every 106 incident photons. Also assume that all the emitted photoelectrons are collected by plate B and the work function of plate A remains constant at the value 2 eV. Electric field between the plates at the end of 10 seconds is
