Multiple Choice Questions

Question 1: A conducting ring of radius r is placed perpendicular to a time-varying magnetic field \( B = B_0 + \alpha t \), where \( B_0 \) and α are positive constants. The emf induced in the ring is
(a) \( -\pi\alpha r \)
(b) \( -\pi\alpha^2r^2 \)
(c) \( -\pi\alpha^2r \)
(d) \( -\pi\alpha r^2 \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (d) \( -\pi\alpha r^2 \)

Explanation:
1. \( \varepsilon = -\frac{d\phi}{dt} = -\pi r^2\frac{dB}{dt} = -\pi\alpha r^2 \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Flux = \( B \) × area, and the area is \( \pir^{2} \).
2. The constant \( B_{0} \) does not contribute to dB/dt.

Question 2: Two coaxial loops A and B are separated by some distance. When the switch S is closed, a clockwise current (as seen by O) flows in loop A and an induced current I₁ flows in B. After a long time S is opened, and a current I₂ flows in B. The directions of I₁ and I₂ as seen by O are respectively
(a) clockwise and anticlockwise
(b) both clockwise
(c) anticlockwise and clockwise
(d) both anticlockwise
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) anticlockwise and clockwise

Explanation:
1. On closing \( S \) the flux through \( B \) increases, so \( I_{1} \) opposes it and is opposite to the current in \( A \): anticlockwise.
2. On opening \( S \) the flux decreases, so \( I_{2} \) tries to maintain it and is in the same sense as the original current in \( A \): clockwise.

Teacher's Note:
1. Increasing flux gives an opposing current; decreasing flux gives a supporting current.
2. Steady current produces no induced current.

Question 3: A current of 1 A and frequency n₁ is passed through a coil, and then the frequency is changed to n₂. If ε₁ and ε₂ are the induced peak emfs in the coil in the two cases, then ε₁/ε₂ is
(a) n₁ : n₂
(b) n₂ : n₁
(c) n₁² : n₂²
(d) n₂² : n₁²
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) n₁ : n₂

Explanation:
1. Peak emf in the coil \( = L\omega I_0 \propto n \) for a given current amplitude, so \( \frac{\varepsilon_1}{\varepsilon_2} = \frac{n_1}{n_2} \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Induced emf = \( L \) dI/dt, and dI/dt ∝ frequency.
2. The current amplitude is the same in both cases.

Question 4: An inductance of 2 H carries a current of 2 A. To prevent sparking when the circuit is broken, a capacitor of 4 μF is connected across the inductance. The voltage rating of the capacitor is of the order of
(a) 10 V
(b) 1000 V
(c) 100 V
(d) 10⁴ V
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) 1000 V

Explanation:
1. Energy \( \tfrac12LI^2 = 4 J \). \( \tfrac12CV^2 = 4 \Rightarrow V = \sqrt{\frac{8}{4\times10^{-6}}} \approx 1.4\times10^3 V \).
2. So the rating is of the order of \( 1000 V \).

Teacher's Note:
1. The magnetic energy is transferred to the capacitor.
2. Equate ½LI² with ½CV².

Question 5: A conducting ring of radius b is placed coaxially inside a long solenoid of radius a (b < a) having n turns per unit length. A current i = i₀ cos ωt flows through the solenoid. The emf induced in the ring is
(a) \( \mu_0ni_0\pi b^2\omega\sin\omega t \)
(b) zero
(c) \( \mu_0ni_0\pi a^2\omega \)
(d) \( \mu_0ni_0\pi a^2\cos\omega t \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) \( \mu_0ni_0\pi b^2\omega\sin\omega t \)

Explanation:
1. Field inside \( B = \mu_0ni_0\cos\omega t \), flux through the ring \( = B\pi b^2 \).
2. \( \varepsilon = -\frac{d\phi}{dt} = \mu_0ni_0\pi b^2\omega\sin\omega t \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Only the area of the ring itself \( (b \lt a) \) links the field.
2. Differentiate \( \cos \) to get \( \sin \).

Question 6: A bar magnet is made to fall through a long vertical copper tube. The speed v of the magnet as a function of time t is best described as
(a) increasing linearly with time
(b) increasing at first and then approaching a constant (terminal) value
(c) constant from the start
(d) decreasing to zero
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) increasing at first and then approaching a constant (terminal) value

Explanation:
1. Eddy currents in the tube oppose the motion, and the opposing force grows with speed.
2. The speed rises until the retarding force equals the weight, after which it is constant.

Teacher's Note:
1. Eddy-current braking is velocity dependent.
2. Terminal speed is reached when magnetic drag equals mg.

Question 7: In an LR circuit the current increases to one fourth of its maximum value in 4 s. The time constant of the circuit is
(a) \( \frac{4}{\ln(4/3)} \) s
(b) \( 2\ln2 \) s
(c) \( \frac{4}{\ln2} \) s
(d) \( \frac{\ln2}{2} \) s
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) \( \frac{4}{\ln(4/3)} \) s

Explanation:
1. \( I = I_0(1-e^{-t/\tau}) = \frac{I_0}{4} \Rightarrow e^{-t/\tau} = \frac34 \).
2. \( \frac t\tau = \ln\frac43 \Rightarrow \tau = \frac{4}{\ln(4/3)} s \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Growth of current in an LR circuit follows \( 1 - e^{-t/\tau } \).
2. Take the natural \( \log \) of both sides.

Question 8: A small cube of volume 1 mm³ is placed at the centre of a circular loop of radius 100 cm carrying a current of 1 A. The magnetic energy stored in the cube is
(a) \( \frac\pi2\times10^{16} \) J
(b) \( 2\pi\times10^{-7} \) J
(c) \( \frac\pi2\times10^{-16} \) J
(d) \( \frac\pi2\times10^{-7} \) J
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) \( \frac\pi2\times10^{-16} \) J

Explanation:
1. \( B = \frac{\mu_0I}{2R} = 2\pi\times10^{-7} T \). Energy density \( u = \frac{B^2}{2\mu_0} = \frac\pi2\times10^{-7} J/m^{3} \).
2. Volume = \( 10^{-9} m^{3} \), so \( U = \frac\pi2\times10^{-16} J \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Energy density of a magnetic field is \( B^{2}/2\mu_{0} \).
2. 1 mm³ = \( 10^{-9} m^{3} \).
