A solenoid has $2000$ turns wound over a length of $0.3\,m$. The area of cross-section is $1.2\times10^{-3}\,m^2$. Around its central section a coil of $300$ turns is closely wound. If an initial current of $1\,A$ is reversed in $0.25\,s$. Find the emf induced in the coil.......$mV$
Answera
$ M =\frac{\mu_{0} N_{1} N_{2} A}{l}=\frac{4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \times 200 \times 300 \times 1.2 \times 10^{-3}}{0.3} $

A rectangular coil $ABCD$ is rotated in uniform magnetic field with constant angular velocity about its one of the diameter as shown in figure.The induced $emf$ will be maximum, when the plane of the coil is

AnswerCorrect option: D. Parallel to the magnetic field
d
Let the angle between magnetic field and the line perpendicular to the surface of rectangular coil be $\theta$
Hence the flux through the coil is $\phi=\vec{B} . \vec{A}=B A \cos \theta$
Hence the induced emf $=$ Rate of change of flux $=-\frac{d \phi}{d t}=B A \sin \theta \frac{d \theta}{d t}=B A \omega \sin \theta$
Hence it is minimum when $\theta=0^{\circ}, 180^{\circ}$
Which means when the plane of coil is at right angle to the magnetic field.

The equivalent inductance of two inductances is $2.4\, henry$ when connected in parallel and $10 \,henry$ when connected in series. The difference between the two inductances is..........$ henry$
Answera
(a)${L_S} = {L_1} + {L_2} = 10H$ ..... $(i)$
${L_P} = \frac{{{L_1}{L_2}}}{{{L_1} + {L_2}}} = 2.4H$ ..... $(ii)$
On solving $(i)$ and $(ii)$ $L_1$ $L_2$ = 24 ..... $(iii)$
Also ${({L_1} - {L_2})^2} = {({L_1} + {L_2})^2} - 4{L_1}{L_2}$
$ \Rightarrow {({L_1} - {L_2})^2} = {(10)^2} - 4 \times 24 = 4$$ \Rightarrow {L_1} - {L_2} = 2H$

Two identical induction coils each of inductance $L$ joined in series are placed very close to each other such that the winding direction of one is exactly opposite to that of the other, what is the net inductance
Answerd
(d)When the two coils are joined in series such that the winding of one is opposite to the other, then the emf produced in first coil is $180^o$ out of phase of the emf produced in second coil.
Thus, emf produced in first coil is negative and the emf produced in second coil is positive so, net inductance is
$L = {L_1} + {L_2} = L + L$
$ \Rightarrow L = - \frac{\phi }{i} + \frac{\phi }{i} = 0$

An induction coil stores $32$ joules of magnetic energy and dissipates energy as heat at the rate of $320$ watts. When $a$ current of $4$ amperes is passed through it. Find the time constant of the circuit when the coil is joined across a battery......$s$
- ✓
$0.25$
- B
$0.15$
- C
$0.35$
- D
$0.45$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $0.25$
a
Let inductance of coil is $L$ and resistance is $R$
$U=\frac{1}{2} L I^{2} \Rightarrow 32=\frac{1}{2} \times L \times(4)^{2}$
$L=4 H$
$P=I^{2} R \Rightarrow 320=(4)^{2} \times R$
$R=20 \Omega$
$\tau=\frac{L}{R}=\frac{4}{20}=0.25$

An inductor coil stores $U$ energy when $i$ current is passed through it and dissipates energy at the rate of $P$. The time constant of the circuit, when this coil is connected across a battery of zero internal resistance is
- A
$\frac{{4U}}{P}$
- B
$\frac{{U}}{P}$
- ✓
$\frac{{2U}}{P}$
- D
$\frac{{2P}}{U}$
AnswerCorrect option: C. $\frac{{2U}}{P}$
c
$U=\frac{1}{2} L i^{2} \dots(1)$
$P=I^{2} R \ldots(2)$
From on $(1)$ and $(2)$
$\frac{L}{2 R}=\frac{U}{A P} \Rightarrow \frac{L}{R}=\frac{2 U}{\Pi}$ mplies$\tau$ $=\frac{2 U}{P}$

An inductor $(L = 100\, mH),$ a resistor $(R = 100 \, \Omega )$ and a battery $(E = 100 \,V)$ are initially connected in series as shown in the figure. After a long time the battery is disconnected after short circuiting the points $A$ and $B.$ The current in the circuit $1 \,ms$ after the short circuit is-

- ✓
$\frac{1}{e} \,A$
- B
$e \,A$
- C
$0.1\,A$
- D
$1\,A$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $\frac{1}{e} \,A$
a
$I=I_{0} e^{-t / \alpha}$
$\mathrm{I}_{0}=\mathrm{E} / \mathrm{R}=\frac{100}{100}=1 \mathrm{\,Amp}$
$\mathrm{t}=1 \mathrm{\,m} . \mathrm{s.}=10^{-3} \mathrm{\,sec}$
$\alpha=\mathrm{L} / \mathrm{R}=\frac{100 \times 10^{-3}}{100}$
$I=1 \times e-\frac{10^{-3}}{10^{-3}} \Rightarrow \frac{1}{e}$

In the circuit shown, $X$ is joined to $Y$ for a longmtime, and then $X$ is joined to $Z$. The total heat produced in $R_2$ is

- ✓
$\frac{{L{\varepsilon ^2}}}{{2R_1^2}}$
- B
$\frac{{L{\varepsilon ^2}}}{{2R_2^2}}$
- C
$\frac{{L{\varepsilon ^2}}}{{2{R_1}{R_2}}}$
- D
$\frac{{L{\varepsilon ^2}{R_2}}}{{2R_1^3}}$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $\frac{{L{\varepsilon ^2}}}{{2R_1^2}}$
a
Steady-state current in $\mathrm{L}=\mathrm{i}_{0}=\frac{\varepsilon}{\mathrm{R}_{1}}.$
Energy stored in $\mathrm{L}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{Li}_{0}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{L}\left(\frac{\varepsilon^{2}}{\mathrm{R}_{1}^{2}}\right)$
$=$ heat produced in $\mathrm{R}_{2}$ during discharge.

In a $LR$ circuit connected to a battery the rate at which energy is stored in the inductor is plotted against time during the growth of current in the circuit. Which of the following best represents the resulting curve ?
Answera
$\mathrm{U}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{LI}^{2}$
Rate $=\frac{\mathrm{d} \mathrm{U}}{\mathrm{dt}}=\mathrm{LI}\left(\frac{\mathrm{dI}}{\mathrm{dt}}\right)$
At $t=0, I=0$ $\therefore$ Rate $=0$
At $\mathrm{t}=\infty, \mathrm{I}=\mathrm{I}_{0}$ but $\frac{\mathrm{d} \mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{dt}}=0,$ therefore, rate $=0$

When a certain circuit consisting of emf $E$, an inductance $L$ and a resistance $R$ is closed, the current in it increases with time according to curve $1$. After one parameter ($L$ or $R$) is changed, the increase in the current follows curve $2$, when the circuit is closed second time. Which parameter was changed

- ✓
$L$ is increased
- B
$L$ is decreased
- C
$R$ is increased
- D
$R$ is decreased
AnswerCorrect option: A. $L$ is increased
a
Final currrent is same so $R$ does not change. since time constant is more in $2.$ therefore $L$ is increased.

A solenoid has turn density $5000\,turn/m$ and cross sectional area $10\,cm^2$. If a current of $1\,A$ flow in it and inside material has relative permeability of $1000$, then find energy per unit length of solenoid......$J/m$
- ✓
$15.7$
- B
$18.9$
- C
$12.31$
- D
$8.53$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $15.7$
a
Energy per unit length $=\frac{1}{\ell}\left(\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{LI}^{2}\right)$
$=\frac{1}{\ell}\left[\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{\mu_{0} \mu_{\mathrm{r}} \mathrm{N}^{2} \mathrm{A}}{\ell}\right) \mathrm{I}^{2}\right]$
$=\frac{1}{2} \mu_{0} \mu_{r}\left(\frac{\mathrm{N}}{\ell}\right)^{2} \mathrm{AI}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} \mu_{0} \mu_{\mathrm{r}} \mathrm{n}^{2} \mathrm{AI}^{2}$
$=\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \times 1000(5000)^{2}\left(10 \times 10^{-4}\right)(1)^{2}$
$=15.7 \mathrm{\,J} / \mathrm{m}$
