Question 14 Marks
Deduce the expression for the torque $\overrightarrow{\tau}$ acting on a planar loop of area $\overrightarrow{\text{A}}$ and carrying current I placed in a uniform magnetic field $\overrightarrow{\text{B}}.$ If the loop is free to rotate, what would be its orientation in stable equilibrium?
Answer


Force on each perpendicular arm:
$?_1 = ?_2 = ?\ ?\ ?$
Moment of couple = ? ? ?. ? sin ?
$? = ?\ ??\ ?\ ????$
? = I ?? ???? $\overrightarrow{\tau} =\overrightarrow{\text{IA}}\times\overrightarrow{\text{B}}$
When the plane of the loop is perpendicular to the magnetic field, the loop will be in stable equilibrium.$(\overrightarrow{\text{A}}||\overrightarrow{\text{B}}) , \Rightarrow\theta = 0^{\circ}$
$\overrightarrow{\text{M}} = $ Equivalent magnetic moment of the planer loop $ = \overrightarrow{\text{IA}}$
$\therefore \text{Torque} =\overrightarrow{\text{M}}\times\overrightarrow{\text{B}} = \overrightarrow{\text{IA}}\times\overrightarrow{\text{B}}$
$\text{|??????|} = \text{IAB}\sin\theta$.

Question 164 Marks
To keep valuable instruments away from the earth's magnetic field, they are enclosed in iron boxes. Explain.
Answer
As we know that iron have high permeability, therefore it will provide easy path for the magnetic field lines to pass. As a result of this, all the magnetic field lines of earth's magnetic field will prefer to pass through the wall of the box making magnetic field inside the box zero. Hence, it will keep the valuable instruments away from the earth's magnetic field.

A magnetic dipole of magnetic moment $1.44A-m^2$ is placed horizontally with the north pole pointing towards north. Find the position of the neutral point if the horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field is $18 \mu\text{T}.$
Answer

We know for a magnetic dipole with its north pointing the north, the neutral point in the broadside on position

Again $\vec{\text{B}}$ in this case $=\frac{\mu_0\text{M}}{4\pi\text{d}^3}$
$\therefore\frac{\mu_0\text{M}}{4\pi\text{d}^3}=\overrightarrow{\text{B}_\text{H}}$ due to earth
$\Rightarrow\frac{10^{-7}\times1.44}{\text{d}^3}=18\mu\text{T}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{10^{-7}\times1.44}{\text{d}^3}=18\times10^{-6}$
$\Rightarrow\text{d}^3=8\times10^{-3}$

Answer

Magnetic moment $=0.72\sqrt{2}\text{ A-m}^2=\text{m}$
$\text{B}=\frac{\mu_0\text{M}}{4\pi\text{d}^3}$
$\text{B}_\text{H}=18 \mu\text{T}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times0.72\sqrt{2}}{4\pi\times\text{d}^3}=18\times10^{-6}$
$\Rightarrow\text{d}^3=\frac{0.72\times1.414\times10^{-7}}{18\times10^{-6}}=0.005656$

Question 214 Marks
Show that the magnetic field at a point due to a magnetic dipole is perpendicular to the magnetic axis if the line joining the point with the centre of the dipole makes an angle of $\tan^{-1}(\sqrt{2})$ with the magnetic axis.
Answer
Given:$\theta=\tan^{-1}\sqrt{2}\Rightarrow\tan\theta=\sqrt{2}\Rightarrow2=\tan^2\theta$
$\Rightarrow\tan\theta=2\cot\theta\Rightarrow\frac{\tan\theta}{2}=\cot\theta$
We know $\frac{\tan\theta}{2}=\tan\propto$
Comparing we get, $\tan\propto=\cot\theta$
$\tan\propto=(90-\theta)$
$\propto=90-\theta$
$\theta +\propto=90$
Hence magnetic field due to the dipole is $\perp\text{r}$ to the magnetic axis.

Question 264 Marks
When the atomic dipoles are aligned partially or fully, there is a net magnetic moment in the direction of the field in any small volume of the material. The actual magnetic field inside material placed in magnetic field is the sum of the applied magnetic field and the magnetic field due to magnetisation. This field is called magnetic intensity (H).
$\text{H}=\frac{\text{B}}{\mu_0}-\text{M}$
where Mis the magnetisation of the material, flo is the permittivity of vacuum and B is the total magnetic field. The measure that tells us how a magnetic material responds to an external field is given by a dimensionless quantity is appropriately called the magnetic susceptibility: for a certain class of magnetic materials, intensity of magnetisation is directly proportional to the magnetic intensity.
  1. Magnetization of a sample is:
  1. Volume of sample per unit magnetic moment.
  2. Net magnetic moment per unit volume.

Question 274 Marks
By analogy to Gauss's law of electrostatics, we can write Gauss's law of magnetism as $\oint\vec{\text{B}}.\text{d}\vec{\text{v}}=\mu_0\text{m}_{\text{inside}}$ where $\oint\vec{\text{B}}.\text{d}\vec{\text{s}}$ is the magnetic flux and $\text{m}_{\text{inside}}$ is the net pole strength inside the closed surface. We do not have an isolated magnetic pole in nature. At least none has been found to exist till date. The smallest unit of the source of magnetic field is a magnetic dipole where the net magnetic pole is zero. Hence, the net magnetic pole enclosed by any closed surface is always zero. Correspondingly, the flux of the magnetic field through any closed surface is zero.
  1. Consider the two idealised systems
  1. a parallel plate capacitor with large plates and small separation and
  2. a long solenoid of length L >> R, radius of cross-section.
(In) (i) $\vec{\text{E}}$ is ideally treated as a constant between plates and zero outside. In (ii) Magnetic field is constant inside the solenoid and zero outside. These idealised assumptions, however, contradict fundamental laws as below
  1. Case (i) contradicts Gauss's law for electrostatic fields.
  2. Case (ii) contradicts Gauss's law for magnetic fields.
  3. Case (i) agrees with $\oint\vec{\text{E}}.\text{d}\vec{\text{l}}=0$
  4. Case (ii) contradicts $\oint\vec{\text{H}}.\text{d}\vec{\text{l}}=\text{l}_{\text{en}}.$
  1. The angle between the true geographic north and the north shown by a compass needle is called as:
  1. $\text{Zero}$
  2. $\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}$
  3. $4\pi\mu_0$
  4. $\frac{4\mu_0}{\pi}$
  1. A closed surface S encloses a magnetic dipole of magnetic moment 2ml. The magnetic flux emerging from the surface is:
  1. $\mu_0\text{m}$
  2. $\text{Zero}$
  3. $2\mu_0\text{m}$
  4. $\frac{2\text{m}}{\mu _0}$
  1. Which of the following is not a consequence of Gauss's law?
  1. The magnetic poles always exist as unlike pairs of equal strength.
  2. If several magnetic lines of force enter in a closed surface, then an equal number of lines of force must leave that surface.
  3. There are abundant sources or sinks of the magnetic field inside a closed surface.
  4. Isolated magnetic poles do not exist.
  1. The surface integral of a magnetic field over a surface:
  1. Is proportional to mass enclosed.
  2. Is proportional to charge enclosed.
  3. S zero.
  4. Equal to its magnetic flux through that surface.
Answer
  1. (b) Case (ii) contradicts Gauss's law for magnetic fields.
Explanation:

According to Gauss's law in magnetism $\oint\vec{\text{B}}.\text{d}\vec{\text{s}}=0,$ which implies that number of magnetic field tines entering the Gaussian surface is equal to the number of magnetic field lines leaving it. Therefore, case (ii) is not possible.
  1. (a) $\text{Zero}$
Explanation:

The net magnetic flux through a closed surface will be zero, $\oint\vec{\text{B}}.\text{d}\vec{\text{s}}=0,$ because there are no magnetic monopoles.
  1. (b) $\text{Zero}$
  1. (c) There are abundant sources or sinks of the magnetic field inside a closed surface.
Explanation:

Gauss's law indicates that there are no sources or sinks of the magnetic field inside a closed surface. ln other words, there are no free magnetic charges.
  1. (d) Equal to its magnetic flux through that surface.
Explanation:

The surface integral of a magnetic field over a surface gives magnetic flux through that surface.

  1. a
  2. b
  3. c
  4. d
  1. The current density in a wire a is:
  1. Greater than in wire c.
  2. Less than in wire c.
  3. Equal to that in wire c.
  4. Not comparable to that of in wire c due to lack of information.
  1. Which wire has the greatest radius?
  1. a
  2. b

  2. Inside the inner conductor.
  3. Inside the outer conductor.
  4. In between the two conductor.
Answer
  1. (a) a
Explanation:
It can be seen that slop of curve for wire a is greater th an wire c.
  1. (b) Less than in wire c.
Explanation:
Inside the wire
$\text{B(r)}=\frac{\mu_0}{2\pi}\frac{\text{I}}{\text{R}^2}\text{r}\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dB}}{\text{dr}}=\frac{\mu_0}{\text{dr}}=\frac{\text{I}}{\text{R}^2}\text{r}$
$\text{i.e. slope}\propto\frac{\text{I}}{\pi\text{R}^2}\propto\text{Current density}$
  1. (c) c
Explanation:
Wire c has the greatest radius.
  1. (c) Zero at any point inside the pipe.
  1. (a) Outside the cable.
