Two long parallel wires carry currents and such that When the currents are in the same direction, the magnetic field at a point midway between the wires is If the direction of is reversed, the field becomes The ratio is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
The correct answer is D () because it's derived from setting up two equations for the magnetic field, one for currents in the same direction and another for opposite directions, then solving for the ratio.

Assertion: The kinetic energy does not change when a particle moves in uniform magnetic field.
Reason: The speed of the particle is not affected by magnetic field.
Reason: The speed of the particle is not affected by magnetic field.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion
Option A (If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion) is correct because the magnetic force is perpendicular to the velocity, so it does no work, keeping kinetic energy constant.

Then choose wrong statement.
Then choose wrong statement.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
The path of the particle may be
Option C is the wrong statement. The path of the particle may be is incorrect because the initial velocity is in the x-y plane and the magnetic field is along the z-axis, so the motion will be confined to the x-y plane.
