A horizontal overhead power line carries a current of in east to west direction. What is the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field due to the current, below the line?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
towards south
Option A is correct because the magnetic field is calculated using the formula for the magnetic field around a long straight wire, and the direction is determined by the right-hand rule.

Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason
R.
Assertion A: For measuring the potential difference across a resistance of , the
voltmeter with resistance will be preferred over voltmeter with resistance
Reason R: Voltmeter with higher resistance will draw smaller current than voltmeter with lower resistance.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
R.
Assertion A: For measuring the potential difference across a resistance of , the
voltmeter with resistance will be preferred over voltmeter with resistance
Reason R: Voltmeter with higher resistance will draw smaller current than voltmeter with lower resistance.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
A is not correct but R is correct
A is not correct but R is correct because a voltmeter with higher resistance draws smaller current, but a higher resistance voltmeter is preferred when measuring potential difference across a *higher* resistance, not a lower one.

Statement A: When a proton and a neutron enter into a transverse magnetic field with equal speeds, then they trace circular paths of equal radii.
Statement B: In a transverse magnetic field the period of revolution of a charged particle in a circular path is directly proportional to the mass of the particle.
Statement B: In a transverse magnetic field the period of revolution of a charged particle in a circular path is directly proportional to the mass of the particle.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
A is not correct and B is correct
Option D is correct. Statement A is incorrect because the radii depend on the charge, and Statement B is correct because the period is directly proportional to mass.

The earth’s magnetic induction at a certain point is . This is to be annulled by the magnetic induction at the center of a circular conducting loop of radius 15 cm. The required current in the loop is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
5.6 A
Option B (5.6 A) is correct because the current is calculated by equating the magnetic field at the center of the loop to the Earth's magnetic field.

Assertion (A): In ammeter, current in shunt is always greater than current in galvanometer.
Reason (R): Value of shunt resistance may be smaller than galvanometer resistance and is parallel to it.
Reason (R): Value of shunt resistance may be smaller than galvanometer resistance and is parallel to it.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
(A) is false, (R) is true
(A) is false, (R) is true because in an ammeter, the current in the shunt is greater than the current in the galvanometer, and the shunt resistance is smaller than the galvanometer resistance and is connected in parallel.

In a region an electron is moving in a circle. What can be the possible field there?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Both (2) and (3)
Option D (Both (2) and (3)) is correct because an electron can move in a circle under the influence of a time-varying electric field (due to induced magnetic field) or a uniform magnetic field.

Three moving coil galvanometers
are made of coils of three different material having torsional constant and respectively. If the three galvanometers are identical in all other respect, then in which of the above cases sensitivity is maximum?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Option A (A) is correct because sensitivity is inversely proportional to the torsional constant, so the galvanometer with the smallest torsional constant will have the highest sensitivity.
