## Charges and Magnetism ### 66 **(v)** When a charged particle moving along the combination of electric field and magnetic field acting mutually perpendicular to each other, then the nature of the path is a straight line. ### Q. 14. Write Fleming's left hand rule. A particle of having charge 1.0 x 10^-9 C enters in a magnetic field of B = *(4i + 3j)* tesla with velocity = *(-75i + 100j)* m/s. Find the magnitude and direction of magnetic force exerting on the particle. [2023] **Ans.** Fleming's Left Hand Rule: Refer to Short Answer Type-I Questions Q.

We know that, F = q * ( v x B) F = 1 x 10^-9 * ( -75, 100, 0 | 4, 3, 0 ) F = 1 x 10^-9 * ( (0 - 0), - (0 - 0), + (-225 - 400) ) F = 1 x 10^-9 * (0 - 0 - 625) F = 1 x 10^-9 * (-625k) F = -6.25 x 10^-7 N ...Magnitude of magnetic force act on a particle will be - 6.25 x 10^-7 N and in negative direction of z-axis. ### Q. 15. What is a solenoid? Show the magnetic field lines produced by a current carrying solenoid. Length of a solenoid is 80 cm and 2000 turns are in it. Current in the solenoid is 10 amperes. Find the magnitude of magnetic field inside the solenoid near its centre. [2024] **Ans.** The Solenoid: A solenoid is an electromagnet in which the insulated wire is wound closely in helical form. Fig (a). It is used to produce controlled magnetic fields. Generally the length of a solenoid is... ### 65 It produced resultant magnetic field is zero at the point P, then B2 - B1 = 0 μ0*i/(2π* 5 x 10^-2) - μ0*i/(2π*15 * 10^-2) = 0 i = 30 A ### Q. 12. An electron enters in the region of 0.3 tesla magnetic field at an angle 60° with the speed of 4 x 10^5 m/s. Find the radius of helical path and pitch (distance between two consecutive spirals) of the electron beam. [2023] **Ans.** Given, B = 0.3 tesla, v = 4 x 10^5 m/s, θ = 60°, r = ? We know that, r = mv/(Bqsinθ) r = (9 x 10^-31 x 4 x 10^5) / (0.3 x 1.6 x 10^-19) r = (3 x 10^-31 x 10^7) / (4 x 10^-19) r = 3/4 x 10^-31 x 10^7 x 10^19 r = (√3/2 ) x 10^-31 x 10^26 = (√3/2) x 10^-5 r = (√3/2) x 10^-5 meter ### Q. 13. Write the nature of path of a charged particle moving (i) Along the electric field. (ii) Perpendicular to the electric field. (iii) Perpendicular to the magnetic field. (iv) Along the magnetic field. (v) Along the combination of electric field and magnetic field acting mutually perpendicular to each other. [2023] **Ans.** (i) When a charged particle moving along the electric field, then the acting force on it will be in the direction of electric field. Hence, the nature of path will be straight line (F = q. Ė). (ii) When a charged particle moving perpendicular to the electric field then the acting force on it will be in perpendicular direction of electric field. Hence, the nature of path will be parabolic. (iii) When a charged particle moving perpendicular to the magnetic field, then the acting force on it will be perpendicular to the direction of velocity. Hence, the nature of path will be circular. (iv) If a charged particle moves along the magnetic field, then the force acting on it will be zero. Hence, the particle moves in a straight line, (F = qvBsinθ, θ = 0). (v) If a charged particle moves along mutually perpendicular electric field and magnetic field, then the nature of path will be helical. ### 68 ...The torque tends to align the dipole in the direction of the field.

Now, a small amount of work is done in rotating dipole through a small angle dθ: dW = -M B dθ sin θ ... ### Q.6 The intensity of the magnetic field B due to a current carrying circular loop of radius 12 cm at its centre is 0.50 x 10^-4 tesla. Find the magnetic field due to this loop at a point of the axis at a distance of 5.0 cm from the centre. [2015] **Ans.** Magnetic field at the centre of a circular loop, B0 = μ0*i/(2R) = 0.50 x 10^-4 = μo*i / (2R) Magnetic field at a point on the axis for this loop B = μ0*i*R^2 / (2*(R^2 + x^2)^3/2) Divide eq (ii) by eq (i), B = B0 * R^3 / ((R^2 + x^2)^3/2) B = 0.50 x 10^-4 * (12)^2 / ((12)^2 + (5)^2)^3/2 B = 3.9 x 10^-5 T ### Q. 7.

[2022] **Ans.** Given, B = 4.5 tesla, θ = 30°, τ = 4.5 x 10^-2 newton-meter We know, τ = MBsinθ 4.5 x 10^-2 = M x 4.5 x sin30° 4.5 x 10^-2 = M x 4.5 x 1/2 M = 15 x 10^-2 A-m² ### 57 With the help of Biot-Savart’s Law, determine the expression for magnetic field at the centre of current carrying coil. [2016, 19, 20, 24] **Ans.** Biot-Savart’s Law: Every current carrying conductor produces magnetic field in its surrounding region (Oersted’s experiment). It is convenient to assume that this field is produced by contribution from different segments of the conductor which are called current elements. A current element is denoted by the symbol *I dl* and it has the same direction as that of the current *I*. After performing number of experiments two french physicists Jean-Baptiste Biot and Felix Savart in 1820 abtained an expression for magnetic field due to a small current element, which is known as Biot-Savart law. If current is anti-clockwise in the coil, then the direction of magnetic field will be in upward direction and is perpendicular to the field. If the current in the coil is in anti-clockwise direction, then the magnetic field produced at the centre of coil will be in downward direction and will be perpendicular to the plane of the coil. ### Q.3. Why is the coil in a moving coil galvanometer wound on an aluminium frame? A galvanometer with a coil of resistance 12.0 Ω shows a full scale deflection for a current of 2.5 mA. How will you convert it into an ammeter of range 0 to 7.5 A? [2022] **Ans.** The coil of the moving galvanometer is wound over an aluminium frame to provide electromagnetic damping because aluminium is dimagnetic and it does not interact with external magnetic field. Here, G = 12 Ω, I = 2.5 mA = 2.5 x 10^-3 A, I = 7.5 A S = (I * G) / (I - I ) S = (2.5 x 10^-3 * 12) / (7.5 - 2.5 x 10^-3) S = 0.004 Ω ### Q. 4. Obtain formula for the potential energy of a magnetic dipole placed in an external magnetic field. [2017, 20, 24] **Ans.** Magnetic dipole moment: Magnetic dipole moment is the torque acting on a dipole held perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field of unit strength. In figure, a uniform magnetic field B is represented by equidistant parallel lines. NS is a bar magnet of length 2l and strength of each pole m. The magnet is held at an angle θ with the direction of B. Force on N-pole = *mB, along B* Force on S-pole = *mB, opposite to B* where, m = strength of each pole and B = strength of magnetic field.
