A coil having 100 turns, area of 5 × 10 3   m 2 , carrying current of 1   mA is placed in uniform magnetic field of 0.20   T such a way that plane of coil is perpendicular to the magnetic field. The work done in turning the coil through 90 is _________ μ J .

Correct answer is 100

To find the work done in turning the coil through 90 , we first need to understand the concept of torque on a current-carrying loop in a magnetic field and how work done relates to the change in potential energy of the system. The potential energy (U) of a magnetic dipole in a magnetic field is given by:

U = M B

where:

  • M is the magnetic moment of the coil, and
  • B is the magnetic field.

For a coil with N turns, carrying current I , and with an area A , the magnetic moment M is defined as:

M = N I A

Given that the coil has 100 turns, carries a current of 1 mA = 1 × 10 3 A , and the area of the coil is 5 × 10 3 m 2 , we can calculate its magnetic moment as follows:

M = 100 1 × 10 3 5 × 10 3 = 0.5 × 10 3 Am 2

Since the coil is initially placed such that its plane is perpendicular to the magnetic field (i.e., the angle θ = 0 ), and then it is turned through 90 , the initial and final angles ( θ i and θ f ) of the coil with respect to the magnetic field are 0 and 90 respectively. This means the initial potential energy ( U i ) and final potential energy ( U f ) of the system are:

U i = M B cos ( θ i )

U f = M B cos ( θ f )

Given that B = 0.20 T , θ i = 0 ( cos ( 0 ) = 1 ) , and θ f = 90 ( cos ( 90 ) = 0 ) , the potential energies are:

U i = 0.5 × 10 3 0.20 1 = 1 × 10 4 J

U f = 0.5 × 10 3 0.20 0 = 0 J

The work done ( W ) is equal to the change in potential energy:

W = U f U i

W = 0 ( 1 × 10 4 ) = 1 × 10 4 J

Therefore, the work done in turning the coil through 90 is 100 μ J .

A circular coil having 200 turns, 2.5 × 10 4   m 2 area and carrying 100 μ A current is placed in a uniform magnetic field of 1   T . Initially the magnetic dipole moment ( M ) was directed along B . Amount of work, required to rotate the coil through 90 from its initial orientation such that M becomes perpendicular to B , is ________ μ J.

Correct answer option is 5

W = U f U i = ( M B cos 90 ) ( M B cos 0 ) W = M B = N i A B = 5 μ J

An electron is moving along the positive x -axis. If the uniform magnetic field is applied parallel to the negative z-axis, then

A. The electron will experience magnetic force along positive y-axis

B. The electron will experience magnetic force along negative y-axis

C. The electron will not experience any force in magnetic field

D. The electron will continue to move along the positive x -axis

E. The electron will move along circular path in magnetic field

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

A. A and E only

B. B and D only

C. B and E only

D. C and D only

Correct Answer is Option (C)

The Lorentz force equation is given as:

F = q ( v × B )

The electron is moving along the positive x-axis, so its velocity vector is v = v x i ^ . The magnetic field is applied parallel to the negative z-axis, so its magnetic field vector is B = B z k ^ .

Now, we can calculate the cross product of the velocity and magnetic field vectors:

v × B = ( v x i ^ ) × ( B z k ^ )

Using the cross product properties, we get:

v × B = v x B z ( i ^ × k ^ )

The cross product of i ^ and k ^ is j ^ , so:

v × B = v x B z ( j ^ ) = v x B z j ^

Since the electron has a negative charge, the magnetic force will be in the opposite direction:

F = ( e ) ( v x B z j ^ ) = e ( v x B z j ^ )

As a result, the electron will experience a magnetic force along the negative y-axis.

Additionally, as mentioned earlier, when a charged particle moves through a magnetic field perpendicular to its velocity, it follows a circular path. In this case, the velocity of the electron is along the positive x-axis, and the magnetic field is along the negative z-axis, which are indeed perpendicular to each other. As a result, the electron will move along a circular path in the magnetic field.

Hence, the correct answer is:

(C) B and E only
